Great info Pan, thank you. You know, I've spent 30+ years in the auto service department. I have no fear with the mechanical stuff. The scary paint stuff however, is another story. With your help, I've completely lost my fear of touching my paint for fear of scratching it. In the past couple months, I've just begun to "come out of my shell". I've wet sanded, paint corrected, bought a DA polisher, and applied a graphene coating. All because of your videos. Thank you sir. Oh, and a tip of the hat from a fellow audiophile. Love your audio and HT rooms! Would love to see more of that content too.- Bob

Great topic Pan as people are often confused on the steps to take. A tip I learned from Miranda is to place the clay bar in a cup of warm water before you begin. This way the clay bar is easier to work with. I live ten minutes from the airport and the planes flying overhead leave a lot of contamination on my vehicles. I have to use iron remover on the back of the vehicles monthly. It just depends on your environment how much contamination you receive. Thank you for another great video!

John from White Details from the UK also does this with the clay bar. I'm in Trinidad in the Caribbean and I also use that trick to properly soften up the clay bar even in out 32 degree C climate. However now with the DIY Details synthetic clay towels its so much easier and safer for the paint that I typically use those especially on light contamination.

A sad story to share, but you know we all learnt from mistakes and hope this will help this community. Recently my workplace car park is doing reconstruction on the roof, even though the workers blocked some of the spaces, but the “powder/dust/minerals” was still blown through wind and eventually landed on my paint. (My paint is protected by adam’s advanced graphene coating.) I then washed my car within 1 day, unfortunately those contamination cannot be washed off. So I have to clay the car. I use DIY detail rinseless wash to pre-rinse, rinse off with water, re-apply and wash with ultra black sponge. Afterwards, using carpro iron x combined with carpro decon towel, with no pressure at all to decontaminate the whole vehicle. Those contaminations came off in less than 5 passes. Unfortunately when I realise there were some tiny white dots (I believe the roof paint dust) on my decon towel (not inside the waffle cut out, but on the actual black synthetic material), it was too late. Even though I use one side of the towel per panel and rinse it in my rinseless bucket. I still see light love marks on the paint. The only option left for me is to polish all the coating off and re-apply a new coating. I encourage everyone, be patience my friend and do a test spot if you are claying.

Can you also achieve some decent results by hand and elbowgrease? I don't have a polishing machine and I can't exactly afford one right now, so just curious if going with a hand polish, could some decent results be achievable? A plan in my mind is using a clay towel and then just some hand polishing, curious if that will do a good job or not.

You should take care of any paint touch-ups after you are done decontaminating and polishing the paint. After the touch-ups, wait a few days for the paint to cure, then wash the car and do an IPA wipe, and then you can apply the protection of your choice. And yes you have to change pads often when polishing, as spent polish clogs the pores of the pads making them less efficient at correcting. You also have to clean your pads as you go. I cover all this in my super popular paint correction tutorial for beginners here: kzitem.info/news/bejne/1qmqunmMgH-Ah34

Hi, I have recently purchased a 13 year old BMW that had a $4500 ceramic coat applied maybe about 5 or so years ago. Arctic white, it seems to have dirt stick to it. How would you recommend bringing back the mirror finish ? I just bought a clay bar & and expensive spray ceramic coat. I currently don’t own a machine polisher. After claying, is there a manual option before any protection coating please ?

Hey Pan, great video as always. One thing I've always heard about polishing is that it removes the factory clear coat. Just by the nature of what you achieve (removing scratches, restoring shine of paint) I'm assuming some clear coat is removed to reveal a shiny surface after polished. Is this something that we should be worried about, and how often should we polish?
@PanTheOrganizer
10 ай бұрын
That is correct. Machine polishing (also known as paint correction) is mechanical abrasion from the pad, and chemical abrasion from the polishing compound liquid (that contains abrasives) that will level the paint, remove defects (swirls, scratches and oxidation) to reveal a glossy surface, free of defects, and has better clarity and depth to the finish. So yes you are removing a thin layer of clear coat each time you polish, especially if you start with a heavier cutting compound. Just using a light finishing polish doesn't remove as much clear coat (but won't correct as much). On a new car, with paint that hasn't been damaged over time, there is no real worries about over-polishing, as you wouldn't polish your paint many times each year. Safe washing and drying methods should allow you to go over a year or two without polishing. How many times you can polish paint is unknown as each paint is different in the type of clear coat (soft, medium, hard) and how thick the paint is. Each car manufacturer uses different paints, and different overall thicknesses. Modern paints are usually three layers: primer, base coat (that's the color) and clear coat (the transparent glossy top layer). For more details on paint correction, I highly recommend that you watch my paint correction tutorial for beginners here: kzitem.info/news/bejne/1qmqunmMgH-Ah34 You'll understand everything once you watch it.

Yes after washing and rinsing, when it’s time to dry the paint with your microfiber drying towel, always use a quick detail spray or drying aid. That will act as a lubricant preventing marring during the drying stage, all while boosting gloss and slickness.

Hi Pan. Great vid as always, but you know I always have a question or 2 for you 😁What are your thought on using the Ceramic Detail TEC582 as a clay lube with the DIY Detail perforated synthetic decontamination towel? I have used the TEC582 as as clay lubrication on the last 4 cars that I have detailed in a 1:4 dilution ratio with the DIY Detail perforated synthetic decontamination towel. I leave the car wet after washing with de-ionised water and spray the 1:4 directly on to the paint. I then spray the towel liberally add then proceed to clay the car, frequently respraying the panels as I go along. A paint inspection with my Master Pro Series inspection light showed absolutely no marring on any of the 4 cars that I have done with this technique . After that, I then just dried the car and did a final TEC582 as a protection. The paint feels smooth as ever and the gloss is amazing. Thanks🤟

I personally don't like using quick detailers or anything with protection in it as a clay lube. I prefer pure clay lubricants, because often I do high end ceramic coatings jobs, so you don't want any protection on the surface, before you apply the coating. So it's up to you to decide. In your case, it seems more like a wash, clay and seal type thing, so it makes more sense.

I used Mother's California Gold clay bar and it MARRED the paint with heavy swirls. So my question, do I need a synthetic clay media in case car is not ceramic coated or should I keep using regular clay bar for maintenance washes in future?

Hey Pan, love your content. Quick question? 1 - When your brother applied AvalonKing product, he did all the prep except the machine polish. Was it skipped for the sake of time? or is it really not necessary? That's the part where you other videos about polishing sort of seem to contradict. 2 - Can you do a video on what's the first thing to do when you buy a new car, specially a factory ordered one where it is presumed there hasn't been enough time since it was painted? I recall another video when you mentioned it could be bad for the paint to apply IPA so early on. Thanks!

First, welcome to my channel. You discovered one of the biggest car detailing channels on KZitem as we surpassed 940,000 subscribers and we have over 124 million views! I have been detailing for 26 years and I love to share my knowledge and passion with my viewers. You found the right channel to help you learn everything about detailing. Hehe, just by the way, your questions are by no means "quick questions". They take time to reply. But I'll try my best to respond. Keep in mind that with almost 1 million subscribers, I receive thousands of messages daily on KZitem, so I can't always give long replies, but here goes: 1. Just to clarify, there's no contradiction. After 26 years of detailing, I have enough experience that I never contradict myself. You must have misinterpreted the information you hear, as it can be confusing at times when trying to assimilate new things. Back to your question on why we skipped polishing my brother's car's paint. It's just a case by case. Keep in mind that machine polishing removes a thin layer of the clear coat every time you polish. So you should only polish when needed. When does your paint need polishing? That's a long discussion, but in a nutshell, these are scenarios where you would want to look into polishing: - your paint has tons of swirls, scratches and oxidation - your paint looks dull and needs a big enhancement in gloss and clarity (machine polishing adds more gloss compared to any paint protection) - you have some protection on the paint, and want to ensure 100% removal as you plan on applying a true ceramic coating (the ones in glass bottles) as those need to bond directly to a virgin clear coat, without any interference from any previous protection In my brother's case, when we applied the AvalonKing, the vehicle was still fairly new, barely a year old, and the paint was still in very very good condition. Almost no scratches or swirls, and we were certain there was no previous protection left on the surface after all the prep steps anyways, so in the sake of preserving the clear coat, it wasn't necessary to polish the paint. That's why. 2. Again, you seem a bit confused. A new car, from the factory, by the time it gets delivered to you from the dealership, is ready to detail from day 1. As soon as you take delivery, you should actually fully detail it, and protect it. The only time you wouldn't detail a vehicle, is if it has be REPAINTED by a body shop. In that case, a freshly repainted vehicle needs 2 months of nothing applied to the paint, so the paint finishes its gassing out phase. The only thing you could do during those 2 months is wash the vehicle with a pH neutral soap. Don't add any protection on the paint during those two months. Also, a notes concerning brand new cars. A new car is never new until it's properly detailed: - at the factory, the paint defects are often corrected quickly by rotary polishing which can leave marks and holograms, so polishing corrects those, before you lock that in long term with a ceramic coating for example. - vehicles are then transported by truck, train and boat so they are exposed to the elements, industrial fallout, brake dust, rail dust, etc - vehicles are often left at boat docks (when transported by boat) or in exterior parking lots for weeks or months, again being exposed to the elements - at the dealership, the vehicles are almost always poorly prepped using the same dirty water that was used for all the cars on a given day, and poor washing and drying methods leading to swirls and scratches - at the dealership, a layer of cheap wax or paint sealant is usually applied to attempt to make the paint glossy prior to delivery. It's crucial to remove any previous protection before you apply a ceramic coating, as coatings need to bond directly to a virgin clear coat. If you only plan on applying a regular carnauba wax or paint sealant though, you could decide to skip machine polishing, as those protectants can be applied over existing protection and it's not as crucial to prep the paint as well. I explain all of this in this popular video: kzitem.info/news/bejne/sp2l36Z5Zmd0gJg So you can better visualize the new car prep process, here are the steps I perform on a brand new car for my customers: Mercedes S 580: kzitem.info/news/bejne/t6eV2pqZsKSqiX4si=whord2_UEFSg28UW Aston Martin Vantage: kzitem.info/news/bejne/sIGdx2evk4iFpKQ Volvo XC60: kzitem.info/news/bejne/1ax6qHabp5qKeXY Tesla Model Y: kzitem.info/news/bejne/yKWe0adusYJmgY4 Porsche 911 Carrera: kzitem.info/news/bejne/k5mhz52sm3iipmk Mercedes AMG GT63S matte black: kzitem.info/news/bejne/xotu4JtnpYqni44si=oGxoCp8PWt7gTncV Audi Q7: kzitem.info/news/bejne/1W1-qXaJj6CarYI BMW M6 Gran Coupe: kzitem.info/news/bejne/kaJ5n6mvhIqka4Y BMW M340i: kzitem.info/news/bejne/xqqOzn6EmnhheHo Audi RS3: kzitem.info/news/bejne/l2pn03WAn311f4I Golf R: kzitem.info/news/bejne/y6hnn5tqiYl7pqA

Hey Pan! I’m planning on giving my car a a really good correction and reapplication of the ceramic coating. I’m sure you know that lots of your viewers, myself included simply don’t have the time to put 20 hours of detailing into a weekend around work, family and life in general. I was planning on tackling this bit by bit over a few weeks, so a decontamination wash and clay to start and I’ll try and allow time to polish and then coat perhaps a quarter to a third of the car, then week by week another wash and more of the correction jobs until the whole thing is done. I’m using scholl s20 where needed but mostly a primer polish carpro essence before coating with Gyeon can coat. I’ll be on the lookout for any contaminants that build up on areas yet to be polished and coated week by week, and treat as needed, but can you anticipate any other issues of doing it this way? Thanks!

I wouldn't recommend proceeding like that, at all. If you don't want to do everything the same day, that's fine. But if you are to separate the project in multiple days, do them in sequence. Day 1: Wash with a decon soap, then iron remover, then claybar. Day 2: Wash the car, dry it. Then do the machine polishing steps needed. At the end of polishing, do an IPA wipe or use a paint prep spray to remove polishing oils. After this day, don't go too long before you apply the paint protection, as your clear coat is exposed to the elements. Day 3: Wash the car, dry it. Do another round of paint prep spray or IPA solution to wipe the paint and get it ready for the coating. And apply the ceramic coating on the entire vehicle. It's crucial to apply the coating to the entire vehicle the same day, as you shouldn't wash a freshly coated car for the first 7-14 days after application.

After polishing you’d always finish by applying some form of paint protection. If it’s not a coating, then it will be a wax or paint sealant. Although not as crucial to use an IPA or paint prep spray before applying a regular wax or sealant, it’s still a good idea, as it will remove polishing oils and residue and promote a better bond of the protection to the clear coat. But it’s for sure crucial before applying a coating as those need to bond directly to a virgin clear coat without any interference from polishing oils or old wax residue.

What are the consequences of not mechanically (but only chemically) decontaminating a vehicle?
@PanTheOrganizer
Ай бұрын
Iron removers and tar removers (chemical decon) only remove specific contaminants (iron particles and tar particles). There are other embedded contaminants in the paint that need to be removed before machine polishing, that chemicals can't remove. Mechanical abrasion or mechanical agitation with a clay material is needed. You wouldn't want to skip claying before polishing, especially if the paint hasn't been clayed in a few months, as you'd be driving those contaminants further into the paint at high rotating speeds and causing further swirls and scratches. Hence why we usually always clay before polishing. I hope this helps.

For sure not doing decontamination won't help the paint look its best. There's so much you can do without decon or machine polishing. If your paint has swirls, scratches or oxidation, the only way to restore that is by machine polishing. And if your paint feels rough to the touch, the only way of restoring the glass smoothness is by claying the surface. Once you get the basics, it's actually not that complicated, and you will likely enjoy the different processes. I highly recommend that you watch my Detailing 101 series for beginners, where I explain different steps like iron removers, clay bar, polishing, protection, etc. It's super simple once you understand the basics, and your car will look and feel 100x better!

Hi, I did the mistake of putting my newly painted hood in rain and the salts from rain left white/salt marks on hood. Will clay be helpful removing these. If not do you recommend anything?

What if you are a beginner to using clay and you have no experience with a polisher? Thank you.

So at 11:38, all that is needed for iron remover, is simply spray the iron remover and rinse off, then use clay lube and clay the car? If so, can we just spray the car down with car shampoo for slickness, then spray the iron remover on the car, wipe it down with the clay and rinse off?

Yes. You would: 1) wash the car, then rinse 2) then use the iron remover and let it dwell for the recommended amount of time as per the instructions on the label of the product you are using (NEVER work in direct sunlight, and don't let the iron remover dry on the surface!!) 3) then rinse 4) then clay the vehicle using clay bar, towel or mitt along with a clay lubricant (some like to simply use soapy water, which is ok too) 5) then rinse and dry the car, and continue with the next steps, depending on what you are doing.
