Great video as always Brian. Maybe a correction video for a knucklehead like me who started a little too aggressive with the wet sanding I use 600grit on my 2005 town car and then I've tried to do graded sanding 800, 1000 1500 2000 3000 to get back to a nice mirror like clear coat I can't seem to get there. I'm using the aggressive Turtle Wax Polishing Compound in green bottle. Thanks

Brian you have been around a long time I'm sure... why don't you throw one out there where you ran out of polish in the field and had to make something work...

Owning a Subaru myself this has been very educational. Thank you so much.

Fantastic little series you did there!.

Thank you Brian always learning new things with your awesome videos

I absolutely love these videos thank you

Thank you for encouragement to keep using my 3401 despite not a tool you prefer. I’m tempted to just get a long throw DA, but you’ve convinced me the rotary demon must be tamed.

Hey Brian another great video on polishing! I don't know if I have missed a video about it or if it's a new product. IGL Renew F4 I believe is the product name. I was confused by AGO description of the product. And what's was peeking my interest is the graphene technology it uses. Have seen some coatings coming with this technology that's are certified installer only coating. And was happy to see this IGL Renew F4 and wondering if you have used it and if it's a product coming up on the channel. Then your thoughts about graphene would be interesting to hear. Keep the awesome videos coming!

Great demonstration ✊💎

My KZread teacher i love you.

Man I had a feeling that was a Subaru hood lol 😝 I have a 2013 legacy with ice silver metallic, even though the clearcoat is quite soft it is quite easy to cut and perfect I notice it responds quite well with like a Orange or green Hexlogic pad with perfect finish!

Doing a paint correction on my Lexus today and putting UK 3.0 and Gliss as protection. Wish me luck 🤙🏽 gonna use everything I have learned from watching your videos to help guide me

If dust is on my car when I go back, what do you recommend doing to get it off before applying the coatings? Thank you if you respond! 🤙🏽

Love perfect polish!

That's Great!! Maybe super hard coat approach next?? just to show how products fail to get scratches out compare to more agressive ones! :-)

You have me sold on the 3D one with the uro 50/50 pad absolute game changer for me works fantastic. For Protection can I use 3D speed on a second polisher to finish only cause it leaves protection or would a sealant like turtle wax seal and shine by hand be a better choice. I guess what I’m saying is am I just wasting the 3D speed and go to a sealant. Appreciate your dedication to all of us enthusiasts.

I have the whole line of Maxshine pads , I team them up with Oberk both cut and fine polish work good. However the blue pad is mean as all get out and like to walk. I have to prime it so it softens up a bit.

I have experienced that. use more correction liquid than normal to get the pad to settle down.

I'd love to see a video on easier ways to handle the Mercedes CCHL paint. If the video was just you saying "Send them to another shop," I'd completely understand.

Thanks for the great video! Do you have any experience with correction on Tesla model 3s? I believe they have a softer clear coat and I want to do the correction and ceramic coating myself but I'm not sure what compound/pad combo to use. It just has light swirls.

Hi , the video before this one covers a touch up type polish and it's very interesting and well covered.

I have a 2005 F350 SRW. The paint’s name is “True Blue” which is a dark color. I was wondering if you had an idea how hard the clear coat is? As you can imagine, the paint is far from perfect and some scratches, swirls & chips in the paint. In the past 2 years of ownership, I’ve was washed it with Meguiar’s Classis Gold, softly clayed it, used Meguiar’s cleaner wax & recently used Turtle Wax’s Seal & Shine. I’m planing on doing a 2 step process to restore the paint using Meguiar’s 105/205 to get the imperfections out. Any suggestions for me? Thanks! I enjoy & have learned a lot from your videos.

Ty for the video, I'm interested in how to compound soft fresh paint. The 3m compound system takes to long for my liking. I am de-nibing (wet sanding) with p2000 and trying to compound&polish it out fast and effectively with todays products. Going to revisit wool pads again. Any combo suggestions do you recommend? Thanks again, Charlie

Awesome video....do you think 3D One would be good for a single stage paint? Would it eat it up too fast? I've never tried to correct a single stage. On the Jaguar, what do you see that made you know it needed to be polished by hand vs machine? How can you tell that?

Would this work with a Dual Action Polisher? And what changes would you make? Nice job

Hey Brian. I was doing an enhancement on a Black Cadillac SRX. I was using Sonax PF with a Yellow Rupes pad on my long throw Bauer and I was getting buffer trails. I was using speed 4 and arm speed was about 1inch / second. I had to end up using 2 small dots of polish and very very fast arm speed to not have buffer trails and get food correction for a 1 step. My initial thought was that soft paint doesn’t really like long throw DAs Any insight? Thanks!

9c1 👍 thank you so much

my mom's 2014 subaru forester must have soft paint..total swirl remover with an orange pad/flex 3401 micro mars the hell out of it..makes it look hazy...very tough to remove. any store brands you can recommend? the pad was a 6.5 ccs. thanks!

Brian I have a new black Volvo. I wanna do paint enhancement and ceramic coat it. Will a white max shine pad work with perfect polish?

Would chemical guys VSS be good for this paint/clear? I have an 06 Subaru Sti and was planning on using that since I already have it. I plan on doing a graphene coating after I do my correction and I want my paint to look as good as possible before the coating.

hello Brian i have a infinti qx60 i bought a rotary polisher and also a flex da polisher i practiced on some junk panels and ive gotten much better with the rotary but im having problems finishing down my soft paint i got most of the swirls out with the rotary and a blue polishing pad but when i use my flex with a finishing pad it actually puts minor scratches in my finish is there anything im doing wrong or anything you can recommend ?

I am doing a Jaguar with crazy soft paint that i cant figure out, guess i'll be doing it by hand then...

I have a 09 Kia Borrego any idea what type clear coat, soft or hard. Thanks really enjoy your informative videos.
