How well do you think Meguires Ultimate Compound would work for this?

I needed this video. I bought sonax bsd and want to use it on its own but my previous protection (rainx exterior detailer) is quite durable and wont be removed by chemicals. Thank you!

Good luck with the move Jimbo. Thanks for the helpful video im going to try it before I touch up some chips on my car

super cool video jimbo , exactly what i needed to know .....also what do u thing of avalonking ceramic should i try it or go for carpro cquartz 3.0 ....

love to see you review Griott's complete compound

I love the Ice Compound. It finishes nice too

Great video. What do you do for the plastic trim that has been coated? Thx.

Starting with the strong APC is perfect as it chemically scars the protection. Instead of compounding another option that will also work for coatings too is Optimum MDR with a 20-30 minute dwell time. At a ph of 2.6 very little can stand up to it with the long dwell time. Doing this also oftentimes makes it so you don't need to clay. I've personally removed CQuartz this way. Killed it dead.

Thanks for another education car care video. You definitely touched all the bases on why i am considering stripping my paint sealant (Fusso Coat). I want to take it off primarily because I want to do a better paint correction on the vehicle with Fusso. Dang stuff is nearly indestructible! I came across two spray strippers that might work. Duplicolor and Rustomeum both sell an aerosol stripper/paint prep. Have you ever used the products? If not, would you possibly consider a review. I think it would make an excellent review? Thanks very much!

I spray totally awesome on then wash with Dawn and that does it for me. Thing about totally awesome is its a $1 from the dollar store.

I disliked your comment just so i could hit the like button again. Turtle is an awesome product. One thing that has always impressed me about Turtle products is, you can use it direct sunlight. It doesn’t leave behind white residue, it hit doesn’t hurt your plastic trim

This will do it for sure. Couldn't you use a finishing polish as well?

Jimbo have you tried out the new Dawn Powerwash that comes in a foaming spray bottle as a strip wash? If you haven't you should try it out. The same way that you have been using the APC's. Spray on the panel and on your towel and wipe it in. It's VERY effective unlike the regular liquid soap that won't touch fresh sealants.

I need some help and a few concerns. I bought a new Toyota that came with a Toyoguard sealant from the SE Distributor. I want to ceramic coat the whole car but not crazy taking 205 to a fresh clear coat. I am new to detailing. There are no swirls and therefore no paint correction needed. What do you suggest to remove the sealant so I can apply a polish before applying the coating. I am familiar with the ceramic coating steps but getting to bare paint is my issue I need help with. Thanks in Advance.

Hope your move is going good! Good luck Jimbo! :)

Jimbo, after hearing all your podcasts ive learned just because the surface isnt hydrophobic, doesnt mean the sealant is gone. The hydrophobic chemical they use to get that behavior is now gone clearly but how do you know youve got it all? Id imagine with your experience you know because youve tried a correction afterwards and the paint wasnt acting "harder" that usual and filling up the pad with the sealant. Wish you well hope this info is helpful to others.

I’m used turtle ice seal n shine on my grey car for the first time but I was wondering when do I reapply it , thing is Though I wash my car every Saturday so do I reapply then or do I give it a months like it said on the bottle or what do I do

Griot’s Foaming Surface Prep would probably remove Seal N Shine. I used it the other day and man is it powerful stuff. I may have to try it on S&S in the future just to see if it can remove it.

What if it’s about a 2 month old coating of seal and shine ? Do you still need all this?

May i know how to remove from windshield can we apply the compound ??

mornin jimbo...hope u and your loved ones are safe and WELL!!!!....the vid is perfect timing as i am going to strip protection off of vehicle(lexus es350) and apply fresh coating for the upcoming winter which in my area of chicago and nw indiana is pretty harsh!! protection i will be applying is IGL F4 - which is currently on there - but i want to strip off the "toppers" and the do a exfoliation of paint b4 applying.....which i am going to test jim lafebers(dr bealeys) Z 1 Zano.....to exfoliate. we have discussed it as i was going to use his nsp 95....but he rec for the lexus the new AIO version which is the Z1 would do the trick....fyi - the NSP line has recd "game changer" reviews....from everyone....mike phillips of autogeek reviewed it and was pretty much blown away.....also an awesome benefit is that NO PANEL WIPE IS NEEDED WHEN USING NSP - Z1.....go straight to sealant/coating as they lay down a bonding matrix creating a superior bonding result of any product. fyi - jim is a founding member of IGA....and past president. he knows his stuff. again thks for vid as it will save me time in getting to re-apply protection

I have learned seal n shine and any other coating that has ceramics should be polished off, too. Brian from Apex suggested a chemical product from TAC systems would remove relatively fresh seal n shine, but I can't find their products for sale anywhere.

If I’m not mistaken, once the compound hazes up, I think u can water hose spray off the Speed Compound. Should say on bottle directions as an option. Kinda cool and very different to competitors.

Hey Jimbo, not sure if you’ve done it already, but could you test exoforma spray ceramic 6h coating. I bought a bottle and applied it to my car just for preliminary testing just to see how it holds up to the daily driving before I dive into some serious testing. However it looks like I won’t have much time, if any, to put it through it’s paces anytime soon, maybe you could do a review on it. After seeing the results of their ceramic shield product quite some time ago on this channel, I wonder just how durable and effective the product really is. Thanks again from a long time fan bro.

Depends how deep the scratches are obviously but most compounds paired with either a microfiber applicator or short pile microfiber towel should work. It might take more than one try but I have used a lot of different products and had good results. I will say that if it is by any rubber trim you either want to make sure that you tape over the trim or pick a compound that says it will not stain trim such as Optimum Hyper Compound.

Thank goodness that the truth about stripping paint sealants has been identified in this video. People think they can spray some form of chemical or soap on a paint job and strip it. That only holds true for old wax or sealants that have already begun to degrade. You're not getting paint sealant that has just been applied off unless you polish
