Orange peel is there on purpose on most cars, because it helps hiding defects. A perfectly flat paint surface shows every even so tiny defect (marring, scratch, etc), which is not desirable in most cases.

Nick Bloodoff I couldn’t agree more. Block sanding combined with orbital sanding (no more than 5mm stroke) is all I’ve ever used. Work back to 3000-5000 grit and it shouldn’t need much more than a polish to finish out. I can’t wrap my head around why he went from a proper orbital sander on the first stage to a large throw DA on the second. So much unnecessary work.

All i have to say is WOW!!! This is a step above everyone else!! Topaz is setting a standard & bringing detailing to a whole NEW level!! So we all need to step our game up!! Big ups & much Respect to the guys at Topaz Detailing !!

Very nice job it’s a huge undertaking to get paint perfect. Anyone complaining about clear coat being removed that car probably gets washed and waxed twice a week so it won’t mater. Paint lasts forever if it’s looked after. I just finished restoring 2 vintage dodges and it took over a week on each car to rub it back to get the paint like that. Great idea fine lining the high points.

The confidence level to attack the clearcoat through literal sanding to diminish the appearance of orange peel effect,and achieve mirror like finish is off the charts. Orange peel effect removed. Mirror like finish achieved. Incredible job.

There should be some kind of award that you can get for doing such a perfectionist's level of work. Truly amazing the amount of work that goes into this Level 5. I now feel ashamed about the state of my car. :-)

*Luxury cars do not hold their value.* Luxury buyers want the latest and greatest tech and gadgets. This is the reason their value plummets and 85% of luxury cars you see on the road are leased -- specially German brands. This is also why you can by a 7 year old $100K S Class for 20-25% of it's value while a same year same mileage Honda Accord only dropped 50% of it's value while retaining it. As years go by from there, the Honda will hit residual value while the luxury cars continues to drop. Fact.

An amazing video, thank you for sharing! Your level of knowledge and precise technique is beyond description! Whew!

Now that's what I call lateral and longitudinal thinking. Masking off all the swedge lines, for example, to prevent sanding through the edges is a very simple but highly effective method. The design and quality of the DAs and machine polishers enable the kind of precision aimed at and achieved in this tutorial. Having the right tools and equipment combined with a fine eye for detail and plenty of patience are key elements in achieving a flawless finish. I wonder whether the secret stage involves baking the car at a certain temperature after a certain (ceramic?) coating has been applied and removed to create a protective barrier and lasting finish.

nice to see someone that understands the wetsand process and need after painting,most people have no idea what "it looks like glass" actually means completely flat and zero distortion

Simply the best! Love to see this amazing work. Whole new level of “being brave” 😀

Hat's off to your staff they do a excellent job.. And to offer service like this is amazing. As a fellow detailer. Customers need to understand the process and it's not magic.. It takes time and experience. You get what you pay for

Man that’s gotta feel so good tearing into a 100+ thousand dollar car paint job. Back when I first started in racing I was in control of 2 prototype AudiR8s before the road car came out, easily 2 million dollars trusted in my hands to grind on and repair carbon fiber then paint. Just felt so good and scary knowing that people entrust you with the responsibility then believing enough in myself to not completely screw it up trying to pretend like it was nothing more than a practice hood from the junkyard and best yet is when you pull it off and the owner (rest in peace you’re one of the greatest men I ever had the honor to know ) comes in and says great job with a smile, looking back it’s still humbling. I scored that job right out of tech school which is why I was so scared and doubted my abilities but pushed on. Anyway killer job brother looks amazing, so much depth to the color and clean, absolutely beautiful!!!

Well done guys...! Excellent work.

Was so satisfying to watch, I even want this for my car

I bet that surface is unbelievable smooth!

Incredible work..

I wouldn’t go this far on the detailing because it scared me the most especially the sanding process. Polish and layers with ppf on top of it is good enough for me. Anyway it’s good to know there is advance step on the car detailing that bring mirror finish to another level.

I remember having to get a finish like that when I was using cellulose paints. Final flat with P1200 wet and dry to remove any imperfections, then start polishing with Belco rubbing compound, before applying polish. Everything done by hand.

Amazing quality high end work and love the attention to detail. You do feel though this car should be like this from when brought New from the dealer.

Nice detail job

such great work !

During the wet sanding stage, what sanding pad is that? I really like it!

You've got balls of steel sanding that expensive car :) respect :)

Which grits did you go through ? Looked like 2000 grit or a little above on that first pass on the clearcoat but I would like to know exactly

Love the video guys keep it up, but more VLOGS would be great from Nabil!

Great video, thank you. A question about the blue ribbon. Is this from HPX 3mm?

If my bmw has 90nm of paint its possible to remove the orange peel? Clearcoat should be around 40nm then so it would be last and only polish for that paint?

Thanks I learned from the video

Like a mirror.. Nice work 👌👌
