SUPER AGGRESSIVE paint correction! My quest for showroom shine on black paint

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

We pulled out all the stops for this one. Sandpaper, rotary, dual action polisher...it was triage mode on this Toyota Tundra!!! The customer wanted it flawless before a ceramic coating. The question is...could it even be done?!

I buff a vehicle similar to yours I did not wet sand it thoe but had similar scratches and swirl makes it didn't had holograms thoe so I use a course coumpound with a 6 inch dual action polisher with a 6 inch compound pad 4 time it took me to take out all the swirl,after that I use a panel wipe that remove coumpound and polish residue, then I polish it with a polish pad to remove compound haze that were created from removing swirl marks so I polish it 2 time to get the gloss and to remove the haze and when I finish I use a panel wipe again to remove the polish residue before I ceramic it but I noticed that it stail have compound haze. Is it because I remove all the polish residue but i had to ceramic it And a next question when finish polishing vehicle do I need to use panel wipe before using sealant and wax or it just for ceramic coating

    Thanks my dude! Yes that's the problem with striving for "showroom" ...if you actually drive a vehicle, it will get swirls and scratches. So much crud on the road, so many weather factors we can't control. Even the most diligent detailers inflict some damage on paint with hand washes. Basically you want to touch your paint as little as possible as a rule...but also, don't lose your mind over this because if every little thing upsets you it's easy to go insane 😂 unless it's in a museum a car will get scratches

    I've worked on far worse but that is messed up. Great job Nick. PS are you using encapsulation tech for the interior carpets and fabric seats as if so you wouldn't need the anti wicking product. Never have sandpaper in a bucket of water and or water/soap and keep dipping your sandpaper into the bucket then continue sanding, that's a good way to put in marks in the paint. sand with a spray bottle via hand. damp or dry by machine. Micro Mesh, 3M Trizact, Kovax Super Buflex dry aka Eagle abrasives in the USA are my go to sanding materials. Mirka is apparently quite good too. Up to 12,000 grit if you want to go mad. Kovax super buflex black dry discs finish out so shallow it's ridiculous.

    Hi, I seem to be getting some haze after using Carpro Reflect with finishing foam pad on DA polisher. I did the cutting stage with a Shinemate cutting foam pad (diamond pattern) and 3D One hybrid compound, which removed most of the marring and waterspots, but after doing the finishing step with Reflect, it seem to leave some haze on some areas, especially around the edges of the section I am working on and around the body lines, which I thought was just stubborn residue since it is also very hard to wipe off after IPA spray. What do recommend me to do? My car is a black metallic Honda (soft paint), I work in a garage but its hot and humid here. May I know what speed setting do you usually use when finishing, and how many passes do you need to do? This is my first go at polishing, could be the technique or it could be the pads. Appreciate the help, Thanks!

Now I am getting into buying a few used cars, and flipping them. Currently working on one that has not had TLC in a long time, and will be trying paint correction. I have been watching the videos you have put out, and this one dropped at great time, as I wanted to know what’s compounds you were using and found the best in the current market, questioned answered. However, what Polisher would you recommend, I saw you posted one in this video as a beginner, and the ShineMate was mentioned in the last video, it is still out of stock. I have been looking at all the ones you have used, and wanted your advice. Thanks for the great videos, and since you ask where everyone is from in some videos, Indiana.

My first thought is the duetto...just because it is cheaper than the mark ii and is pretty beginner friendly. The way to learn paint correction is just by putting time in, people always recommend a test hood for practice first. But if you don't want rupes there is max shine and griots etc...I haven't tried those yet

    After compound stage I use a decent microfiber towel, I kinda prefer plush for this but lots of people swear by short nap. If I have compounded for too many sections...( should wipe off after every section, but sometimes it is what it is lol)...so if I've overextended my self and gone to town on the panel...I'll spray it down with a rinseless wash solution for a little lubrication (after some dwell time) and it tends to break down compound if it gets caked on there. I use rupes coarse da and or koch chemie h9 for da and rotary respectively. If you wipe off after your section both are super easy wipe off. Now...after compounding I really love the klin short nap towel (called zero finish, I did a video on it a few months back) I use it fresh out of the bag and it's amazing for polish removal. Thats when not scratching paint us super important. If I can't reduce streaking during a step I'll use a paint prep to get the panel clean but I don't wipe off compound or polish with prep.. I wipe first and if I'm fighting streaks then a paint prep wipe.. we use prep all in the shop.. but the zero finish use 2 of these on a car and they are about 4 bucks a pop.

    Maybe a dumd question and the reason why I ask is because of the way you see these products advertised differently. So can you use a DA Polisher as also a DA Sander? Also another question I have is regarding the differnt Polishers you use. I see that they say Rotary Polishers. So I assume they are not DA? Last question. I also have see recently polishers that are notated as Forced Rotation. So can you help us explain the differences in these polishers and what scenarios would you use them? Also pros and Cons for each one please? I just Subscribed to your channel and looking forward to more great videos👍😀 Thank you Is one better than the other?

    Great job sir. The bigger spots, customers need educated on paint and clear coat depth because after such a finish should it be done again and ceramic wears off in a year that it will not be possible. Good to the lowest and leave a bit is best. Speaking from experience and money. Nonetheless, very impressive.

If i may suggest to use a paint thickness meter so you will have an idea on how far u can cut coz this helped me alot and made my process a lot faster and saved me a few times on not going to far on the cutting stage and for pig tales i had great success on the Rupes twisted wool fiber their awesome.

    The MOMENT you see pigtails, STOP and either clean your sandpaper or replace it. Depending on where you are in progress in a certain section, it actually might be better to clean the paper you have, as that piece has a new grit compared to a fresh Icee of identical paper. First try wiping it away with the clean cloth you should always have at hand, dry cloth for dry sanding, wet for wet. You’d be surprised how much crap comes off the paper just by wiping it away. But the topic of pigtails. Pigtails come from one thing and one thing only. Bits attached to your sandpaper which are now additional and random grit on your paper. These can be anything, but most often it’s bits of paint which have become dislodged, either from the heat of sanding or having bad adhesion in the first place. On OEM paint this is usually just where contaminants have attached themselves to a bit of OEM paint and the sanding action pulls it all up and out, sometimes leaving a new tiny dimple or hole in the paint. Go back to the days of the Spirograph toy and you’ll see how that spec of basically resin leaves it’s mark in your sanding pattern. Bad stuff, as you now have to sand away the marks which you just made while trying to sand away the marks that were already there, taking away yet more of the PRECIOUS clear or paint base coat. Every single little bit is crucial. Ask me how I know? I always though pigtails we’re just a function of the grit of the paper and the speed at which you moved the machine. It seemed like when I moved the machine faster I got more pigtails. Wrong. It’s just that the other parts of the paper would sand away the pigtails while the pigtail culprit was diminishing or breaking off, and guess what, that was yet again causing more problems. The whole idea is to GET RID of the baddies. I’ve gotten to where I might sand for ten seconds and stop and remove crap from the paper. So be it. That time is a great investment and the returns will be huge, in that you won’t have to spend even more time sanding away the sanding mistakes you actually inflicted upon the surface while trying to fix the surface. As a good doctor says, “do no harm”, that’s virtually impossible when doing any type of touch up or correcting paint, old or new. You are destroying the paint/clear such that the underlying destruction is uniform, then polishing that surface to a nice shine with ever more refined grain until the eye can no longer see the difference between one valley and another. “We will invade that country, level it’s infrastructure, and rebuild it to our own liking!” Turns out our liking isn’t orange peel or anything we don’t perceive as mirror-like, all the while the paint was more protective overall and would retain the most longevity if left alone. Excepting obvious real damage penetrating the primer coat of course. Even then, SOME older OEM primers can absorb water and must be covered with something, preferably a color matching paint to protect the body from rust or corrosion. We destroy to rebuild. This dude did an excellent job. Been there. Not done that so we’ll plenty of times, but my OCD behind looked closer and figured some of this crap out. I’ve even used solvents to get rid of scratches, albeit very, very carefully. How? By reversing the paint process. If the paint got hard after solvents evaporated, then maybe reintroducing solvent to a particular spot would soften the paint enough to reflatteen it. How to do that? Tip of rubber gloved finger. Very, very, very carefully apply a little blending solvent to the tip of your most dexterous finger, with the latex pulled tight, smooth, and clean, and very gently rub(on fresh paint) or firmly (on seasoned paint) to soften and smooth the scratch. Call it chemical non-sanding sanding. It works. Obviously protect the surrounding surfaces to prevent any drips of the solvent or you will have much bigger problems. Ask me how I know. Well……….

    No sir, I could be a hack but I feel like with enough experience you can look for signs in the paint. For instance, if there is a lot of texture I might be more comfortable vs if the paint has flat spots in the texture (a sign it's possibly been de nibbed at factory or a detailer has sanded there before) or if the paint doesn't have texture I know to be very very careful because paint has definitely been compounded or leveled in some way prior. You might listen to "Detail Solutions Podcast"...August 18 podcast...Jason killmer talks about how newbies rely on paint thickness gauges too much and how they don't always tell the whole story and what to look for when surveying paint
