He actually left the scene to go drinking, as promised. Mad lad.
When using a clay bar, it is important to occasionally fold the clay so the dirty surface is no longer exposed. This will help prevent scratching.
This man could polish even an avocado! 😀
Hahaha God damn this dude is awesome 👌 great Intro!!!
This is exactly the type of how to mechanically video I’ve been searching for. 2013 sonata needs some love. 👊
Great vid my dad’s Hyundai has bad clearcoat but hopefully I can fix it with the great explanation you gave
Great job, love that meguiars ultimate compound 👍
LoL ( ❤ love the hiccup )
Great video as usual. Just wanted to mention an ad popped up trying to sell me discounted marijuana in Canada. Two thumbs up!!!
Great stuff!
Another great video
Looks great!
Great job 💪
Nice one 👍🏼 ! Thanks !!
Can you use a 2000 sanding disc with the polisher instead of by hand or will the machine create worse sanding swirls?
wow... Congratulations
Good stuff 👍
The Polishing was actually satisfying to wash. Would we see some bodywork in the future?
❤dude. We love you. !
lol, I remember those days of morning maintenance of King Cobra
Wow thanks for this video. The hood of my Mercedes has been getting terrible as of late because I've been visiting the Hospital for a whole month with no time to spare for car care. It's getting growing patches of bubbling clear coat and I could never wrap my head around fixing orange peel on other projects. Will try to DIY before looking to a body shop. Does anyone know if theres anything besides coats of wax and car covers that remedy bubbling clear coat? Thank you in advance!
Nice video. Question: Can you use a machine to wet sand? what if you don't want to do it by hand, can you use some kind of machine ?
I would use the dual action polisher with a sanding pad. This makes more even sanding.
What grade pad would you use?
@@uw8850 there’s a thing called interference pad for sanding discs. I would use the 2000 grit sanding disc on that interference pad.
@@Badassyups thank you.
or just buy a dewalt DA sander.
You're talking about a DA sander, much like a DA polisher its a dual action sander that rotates and oscillates, with a soft foam backing pad/interface pad you can make quick work of body panels, I would still recommend blocking things by hand around body lines where you can't fit the DA.
Will you be doing the roof next ?
I had an idea on this sort of process... So repair the peel with the rattle can then like you did buff/polish it. Now for one more process, clean and use ceramic coating. Figure if you did that to an entire car it'd look like new for longer than stopping at polishing. Maybe 10 years?!
Funny humor
I can’t paint my car in my garage here in SD. Can I come spray it at your place? 👀
Id worry less about the orange peel and more about the tiger stripes 😂 Better to save money on base coat and spend that money on drinking
I noticed the striping too. But unfortunately that’s just something that happens when using a metallic colour out of a can
@@J27M well he needed to do a few effect coats from further back to minimize it, but he ran out of base way too soon
Sup vato . Good video make more and maybe rattle can an entire car . Possibly a small car.👍🏼
Did I miss something or was there no clearcoat applied? saw stuff to sand with, and polish with, but did I miss the actual clearcoat?
He did the clear coating on a previous video.
Should you sand in one direction the reverse or circular Ike when you polishing? And can you do this by hand( without machine)?
Straight strokes hand flat and crisscross strokes like 5 strokes in one direction then 5 strokes on a bias direction
@@delinquentdesign Thanks, that's what she said!
@@bawintermage8351 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
👍
Big difference.....
👍🏾👍🏾
I have to wait forty-six weeks?!
Meguiar's makes me nuts with their numbers and bottle colors. I called them once and the kid was an idiot. (For such a great company this shocked me). I had collected so many different colors and numbers of Meguirars cutting compounds, buffing compounds, finishing compounds, and polishing compounds, ...... and all I wanted from Meguirars was a "scale". Is my black bottle "restore" compound more or less aggressive than my tan bottle number X? Even Mequiars didn't know (that person). Does anyone know of a chart that lists the numbers and colors so a regular person can determine the "grit" and polish?
... 02:05 ... cmon dude... don't you know there is a water shortage... governor Newsome is gunna shut your water off... Good job man... wish I had your talent...
Far too much compound...lol 3 or 4 dime sized dots per section is all you need ON the pad.
15:22 rofl hell na the rite side looks beter. the left side is all jacked up u can see stripes/lines
Yep he skimped out on primer and base coat
