@helmsman6542 Thanks very much 🙏🏻

@VoltaireHernandez yeah, but all the wheels are coated, so there was nothing to do a comparison with. Just imagine it like that, but the dirt is not rinsing away 😀

bump. Just bought car in alfa red. It is new but needs polish. How tough is it? Whats the polishing combo for swirl removal? Koch f06 + mid stiff pads Da15 would work? Help please!

@diogoe9xtwo289 This would start at £800 with our Enhancement Detail and 3-year ceramic coating. From there you can upgrade the polishing stages, more durable ceramic coating, wheel coatings and things 🙂👍🏻

@@patcharaw9867 The M3 CS wheels are 19". 9" wide on the front, 10" on the rear 👍🏻

@louismorris7954 they get machine polished too 👌🏻 I use a 3" polisher to do a heavy cut, then refine the finish afterwards. In an ideal world, PPF is the best protection for these as they get damaged so easily.

@alessandropoggi9488 it's such a cool car. The colour really pops when it's polished 😎

@LeecMTB 🤣 I get to work on a lot of Golf's, the go to in the last few years would be Angel Wax polishes with Meguiar's microfiber cutting pads and yellow Rupes foam. th-cam.com/video/JDQWcF848gY/w-d-xo.htmlsi=3x9fl61nfvAOKeoS

@@detailR ahhh thanks for that mate, I have just got an in2detailing da, going to do some correction on my mk 5 using meguiars compound and some 205 , I’ve got their Microfibre cutting pads but not tried it yet, I got the hexlogic orange pad too but after your feedback think illl go straight in with the microfibre!

@LeecMTB thanks very much. I honestly can't remember what was used on this one. The car had been resprayed and left in a terrible state so it was a pretty heavy cutting stage to start with. The paint was a bit softer than factory too.

@@the_jnlt_channel it didn't look that bad when I quoted the car 🤣 thanks dude, appreciate it!

Thanks Marc 👌🏻😎

Yes, the spoiler can be polished. The paint is super soft so start on a fine finishing polish and soft pad 🙂

@@detailR Thank you! Is it better to use finishing polish and change the variation of the pad or use the turtle pro precision platelet and change cutting pads? This spoiler is so tricky

The problem is usually with the product rather than the towel. IPA has no lubrication, so as it evaporates it starts getting grabby. I'd highly recommend hyperCLEAN WIPE as your panel wipe. It removes a lot more than IPA can, and it's nicely lubricated hypercleanstore.co.uk/products/wipe

Thanks very much 👍🏻 The Stratos only received a safe wash and quick interior clean this time. If it comes back for more work, I'll make sure to get a video of me folding into it and the start-up 😎

Ha! Yep, definitely built for performance and not for comfort! What an opportunity though 😮

Oh nice 👌🏻 I'm booking for the end of June at the moment. Let me know if you'd like to stop by and I can take a look over the car with you and work out a package to suit you 🙂

Thanks very much! The colour really suits the car. I've only seen it once before.

Thank you very much 😁 really appreciate that!

Thanks Stu 😎 I'm a huge fan of the MK8. The Clubsport is just perfect 👌🏻

Thanks dude. Really appreciate it 🙏🏻

Thanks John 😊 👌🏻

Thanks James! Do you mean the gloss black B-Pillar trim? They were cut with a microfiber pad and heavy cut compound. Intermediate stage with a medium pad. Finished with a super soft pad and finishing polish. I can't remember exactly which pads, but it would have been Angel Wax polishes 🙂

Hey bud. Where abouts are you?

@@detailR thanks a lot for your🙏 reply I'm based in India

Thanks very much 🙏🏻

Thanks very much 👍🏻😎 They're really nice cars. There's some cool little touches on the Club Sport that you have to go looking for to find as well.

Thanks very much 😎

Thanks very much 🙂 this one took 3 days all together. Then the car sits overnight for the coating to cure before going out ther following day 😎

Thanks 😎 yeah, the paint is usually soft and thin on Toyotas. Always start with the least aggressive pad and polish and work up if needed 🙏🏻

🤣🤣🤣🤣 Yes, you're absolutely right. One well lubricated wash after 2 stages of pre-washing is the sole cause of the swirls on a car that's been through a load of hand car washes 🤣🤣🤣 As a bit of education, this is known as a "prep wash". The aim here is to get the car clean. The car is already covered in swirl marks and will likely pick up a little bit of marring later when clay is used. The method used still won't cause that level of damage. If this was a maintenance wash after it had been corrected and coated, different techniques would be employed. 🙂
