Larry- “going outside to do a quick wash “ wife - “ok see you tomorrow “
😂
I just saw the title of video and this comment under the video and laughed before i even watched the video 😆
🤣😂
🤣 omg this made my day
Jajajajajajaja
Instead of getting upset when seeing the damage I bet that Larry was like “aye! Some new video content!”😂😂 always love your positive attitude Mr. Kosilla
Great comment. Says it all.
Exactly what I was thinking! LOL
You think it was actually an “accident”. That’s exactly what it was, material. AmmoNyc=33 🦅 🦅
/Gets pulled over "These needles are for paint, I swear!" "Aha. Sure junkie"
Bobby Brady ok boomer
Especially blunt ones! Like he said to get. I don't like needles to begin with, so bugger getting blunt ones if your a junkie lol!

Removing the wheels is next level detailing. There's plenty of times when I've really wanted to do it but it takes so much time without a double jack setup like you have. I haven't been employed as a detailer for a few years but your content keeps my skills fresh.
I'm an engineer who worked briefly in polymer chemistry. Your explanation of delamination from mismatched swelling was so concise (4:20). Loved the animation.
You look like the cooler version of Linus Tech Tips.
SlickNicklol dude I’ve watched both for a while and never noticed before but I completely agree 😂
@@dalonplays2246 I put it together when they were side by side in my feed. I love this channel hes the sole reason I've dropped way too much money in polishers lol
More like more mature Linus They even have a mole on their lower jaw on opposite sides
i have both their current vids on my screens now and thought i was crazy for thinking the same thing
Linus Mech Tips
All I can say is... You are sooo correct when you mention the obsession with trying to get it perfect
Gonna have to check out the new wheel cleaner! Looks like it did an insane job faster than other products.
Larry I can’t tell you how much I appreciate your products. Ive been using your products for 4 years now and my cars are in incredible condition and all I can say is thank you
Started using needles for very precise touch ups and stone chips 20 years ago. Depending on what flow rate you want you will find it less problematic if you thin the paint more than normal before filling syringe. Thicker paints and if you set your syringe down for a bit and then come back you will find the paint has dried in the needle neck. Do not apply more pressure to force the dried paint out. If it does dislodge you will shoot a stream of paint under high pressure at whatever your were aiming at. Best to just put a new needle on. If you do set the syringe down and its going to be for longer than a minute or two, you need to pull gently back on the plunger to pull the paint out of the needle and back into the syringe saving yourself from using another needle. Another way to open the needle up and start paint flowing is to take a lighter and apply the flame to the needle barrel aiming the end away from you as once the dried paint reaches a hot enough temp it will shoot the blockage right out the tip. I would use another needle head as first choice. You have to play with the needle but you can get it to flow out at a controlled speed so that no pressure needs to be applied to the syringe plunger, this is desirable when filling many rock chips, you do have to keep up which isn't that hard if all your chips are prepped and ready for filling. Sometimes the chip may require a second application but usually once fills it precisely.
I've been watching your videos for awhile now. Everytime it does not disappoint. The wealth of information you share to the community and the best part of it all is you do not hide your growth. You bring back some of the techniques that were used before and show a new learned and better method. It's very rare to see someone documenting themselves and showing that part of themselves. Not do only these videos give me reference, but it also improves the way I think about detailing my own or others cars. All I can I say is thank you.
I tried the needle and the results were AMAZING. I was so impressed it worked on all the areas. Wish i knew this earlier
Thank You Larry. I ordered the pieces and I'm looking forward to utilizing what you have shown us here. Felt good to be out working on the cars...
Yup. we all know the drill. The Wife is Happy! that is all we need.
And the baby healthy. That’s important, too.
It would be terrible to be happy yourself
Happy wife, Happy life!
@@Colaaah Better description and more to the point. If Mama isn't happy, ain't nobody happy. Nothing truer than that.
@@dennisfernau8076 True words of wisdom 😇🤩😍😳😳😳
Perfect timing with this video since I'm selling my car and touching up the paint. Always helpful.
Thanks for the great suggestions as rock chips are inevitable I'll be purchasing some of these tools
I love that you give your run of the mill daily driver the same treatment you give your other more impressive cars.
Wow! Larry just entered another level with his detailing. Praise the Lord!
I've had great results when touching up paint...I let the touch up dry for a few hours and then go over it with a pad and compound. The compound and heat from the polisher really smooths out and blends the touch up.
This video and shopping list saved me a ton of time. Thank you!
You are a true master in ur field my friend god bless you and ur family
Yes! Paint has a very important job. I like the band-aid analogy.
Mom finds all of sons needles: "omg he's doing drugs!" Son: "No mom! Car detailing, it's more expensive and more addicting."
Hahahahaha..! (It's funny cos it's true)
@@niallmcmenamin7368 All depends on how big your habits is! So, how many cars a day are you up to? Hmmmm?!?! lol!!!
Really helpful video. I was just about to pick up the paint applicator pen, but now i think im going to get the syringes and tips instead. Seems alot more versatile and i could use them for a ton of different diy projects i run into aside from just paint touch ups! Thanks for linking everything!
Love your videos brother. Thanks
Can't wait for every needle and toothpick on amazon to start costing 15£ each, like it happened with the Lowel Cornel paint pens when Larry used one on a video.
Killer infos as always. Thank you!
Brilliant, such a simple solution!
Mix the clear and paint together instead of trying to add the clear later. It blends nice and looks better. You can wet sand lightly and buff and virtually make the chips disappear by doing this. Don't overfill or underfill the chips this is the key. Takes some practice but be patient doing it. Toothpicks have always worked for me or a very small craft paint brush.
Toothpicks work great!
I don't understand his way of fixing chips and scratches in the paint with his method. When you fill the chip with paint you should let it cure for a day or so and then sand and/or compound it to level it out with the surrounding paint and then Clear coat, cure, level and buff.
@@bodeine454 10 ways to skin a cat. Obviously there are good, better, and best ways to fix a chip. These paint/clear bottles will never be the perfect fix as its not a 2k clear. The paint can be a shade off if your cars been beating out in the sun for years etc. Nobody is doing a full respray and blend job on a rock chip. Very few will ever wet sand and buff after a fix. Mixing the clear and paint and applying it level looks decent enough for the average joe.
How much clear and paint should you mix together ?
@@marvinjames8080 start with 50/50. Every paint mixes different. Lighter colors may need more paint than clear and vice versa
Thanks larry, another great informative vid as usual, your tips are great, thanks again
Really love the videos Larry. You are the reason I have got into detailing. Real inspiration! Thank you !
REFLEX LOOKS FANTASTIC!!!
Prepped my car in fine style getting it ready to sell, looked so good I am keeping it, this video saved me $thousands
So glad that I found your vid- your expertise is clearly communicated.
VERY excited for the new reflex!
2:02 you say therapeutic, I say a pain in the arse 😂. As someone who hates cleaning and detailing cars I'm really impressed by you and your channel. Thank God there are people like you around who find this therapeutic 👍
It’s very therapeutic when you have over 2milion subs and own line of detailing products. Don’t forget the masonic connects for success.
Does your wife ever ask you, "Are you really taking the wheels off my car to clean it? You know I'm just going to go park it under a bunch of trees." LOL!
Larry: "Ooo sap removal video!!"
Thanks for the many great tool suggestions.
Love the video!!!
Great job! Judging from the video, you can get ALL of that dent/collision damage done by a skilled dent guy, and I'd recommend doing it before the touch-up. Most of it is PDR-able, with only a little push/pull to paint. No bondo, filler, nothing. All you need to do now is touch it up where necessary.
Awesome work, tips, and vid as usual. Keep up the awesome work!!!
Always great and informative!
Omg LARRY I am obsessed with all your Ammo car products so mild and gentle on my brand new 2020 Range Rover Velar your Hydrate paint spray is the bomb!Thank You for making excellent car products!
The only words that come to mind is: HARD CORE. On another level!
Your the best Larry. Always positive and professional.
I just realized this is the best guy in the game for car washing tips and he only has 190k subs? This guy has taught me everything I know. Hes is my master!
love the headlamp!
Larry thanks so much for this video i have very similar damage to deal with on my daily. The syringe thing is such a great idea.(Wish i had thought of it myself) .
Great video, great tips! Thanks
Working everyday with needles and syringes and looking at 10:35 I have to strongly suggest to avoid air pockets in the syringes. It will destroy your flow as in compresses and when you back off with your thumb it will continue to flow for an uncontrollable amout of time.
Aezakmi Seaways ok thx for tip!
super helpful thank you
Fantastic video as always
Nice job man!
Excellent video, great info. thanks for sharing. Cheers
Awesome video definitely a whole different level of detailing.
Awesome content. Really good insights into touch ups thank you.
Thanks for the video Larry. Always great great great info. A-holes and parking lots... hate them both!
Thank you for this tips
I watch retailers from all round the world but your videos are next level! 🇬🇧
Great video Larry
I miss your videos! Cheers man!
A plus video. Informative and great editing

Nice Video Men! I love! You are the best! God Bless You!
very useful video, thanks for sharing.
Always the best
Amazing video thanks
super helpful thank you
Very good video. Thank you.
Been a while I want to see that kind of video and there is some good ideas. Thanks mister !!
Great video as always 😍👏
When I saw touch up paint and a syringe, I knew I had to see this video!
Your G55 AMG helped me when someone recently keyed my X5 !
boosted16 they probably thought you were a 1% er. I have 1976 highly modded supercharged corvette stingray owned and modded for 40 years .Once took my vette and my girl friend to her company summer picnic at the Niagara escarpment heritage farm .We parked away from every one . When we were leaving I looked the car over the front nose between the head lights was smashed and the impression of the largest running shoe including logo in the nose of the car 🤬🤬🤬.estimate the running shoe to have been 13+++ .If I had seen the asshole that did this I likely would have been killed . Any way the front fibreglass between the 2 headlights had a 8 inch crack and and the whole area was sunk in at least 1 inch. I worked as a student 9 years almost full time at a small town gm dealership in collision,paint ,touch ups ,detailing, assisting mechanics in rebuilds engine and transmission, refurbishing all the trade ins . When we got home cleaned the vandals damage,stop drilled the crack got it some #40 grit paper sanded the damaged area cut some fibreglass and applied it to the cracked area and once hardened prepped and applied dyna glass to blend to the rest of the area followed by some filler to finish, which was feathered to meet the Oem panel, primed sanded and painted and blended . The repair too me about 4 hours many years lated and stripped the car to bare fibreglass and smc and painted it in blue metal flake and diamond flake which took me over 6 weeks to apply ,now it attracts so much attention I only take it out of my home shop and back plus I have to wear sunglasses lololo. My point is just because we have nice cars is because we work very hard and prioritize our earnings and I purchased a house zoned commercial residential in a small town cheap 15 years ago and many of us learn to do the the work ourselves because we love it don’t be jealous . Beside cars and boats I also am a ham radio operator , and study history and current event and politics and religion ,alternate health nutrition and at 64 still work in industrial electronics/maintenance and heavy equipment at local factory.
I used to do that before, except removing the wheels,That's a great idea about using the needle for scratches.👌
Great video ad always.
Excellant video and presentation
Hi Larry I over your technics and enjoy your videos keep them coming

When I saw a video of you doing touch up with pen on that yellow 911 I tought well I will try this with needle. And it worked and you have a variety of gauges :)
Love and miss your videos!

Wow. ‘‘Tis is a whole nother level.
Great video. Any videos detailing the procedure where you have rusted spots and paint that is flaking ?
Great video- I love the array of paint tools. Wish I would have seen this a week ago, before I went all obsessive-compulsive on a couple of stone chips in Honda Silverstone paint. I didn't stop at "it's good enough" Oh No- instead I spent a couple of days and made things worse. Live and learn. HA! Larry the Philosopher knows what he's talking about. :)
The best touch up videos are made by Amd detailing
I had never seen anybody happier of having his car dented than Larry.
sooo glad your wife has a subie!!!!! i detail these cars all the time at a dealership. i use your techniques constantly. your training vids have changed they ways i clean and detail my cars. keep em comming bro. maine weather makes me want your products... maybe someday i can afford them
Good evening .. Thanks for the reply
Working with base colours compared to silver or metallic paint is very different. The paint you applied on the Porsche you shown was perfect thickness and went on fine, but compare that to the thin, runnt and half transparent metallic paint on the Subaru and you can see a difference. The metallic paint runs more, giving a finish closer to what you could apply with the pre existing brush compared to anything smoother. I reccomend an airbrush to apply your metallic paints with, and doing multiple thin coats. That way, there's no hrd line between the original coat of paint and the touch up as the larger, feathered finish of the airbrush would help the transition, furthermore, the thin layers would stop paint running and build up. So, needles for anything but metallics, and airbrish for anything metallics.
