    QUESTION : If car has a lot of scratches and some are quite deep so you need to paint them..but you also are planning to do full paint correction.. should we:
    1. We first sort those deep scratches (preparation,sanding, painting, polishing), then do the full paint correction of whole car...
    2. We do painting of deep scratches mid way of full paint correction... (after wash...iron and tar decontamination and clay bar decontamination)
    3. We do all the steps of paint correction and before applying ceramic coating we focus on sorting those big deep scratches

    One more detail, in CA it's a bit hot and doing this stuff with car, which is really heated from the direct sun, this is not good for the health of the bodypart (If you want to ever do this and the hot weather is expected, do it in the shadow, or early at the day or in the evening). On the other hand I appreciate the job the guys have done.

    Chemical Guys, I've been looking for a source of information, or a "guide", so to speak. But I'm not sure what I'm looking for even exists. I've heard different professional detailers say different cars require different products inside and out. Do you provide such a guide in which you recommend certain products of yours for that specific vehicle? For example, let's say I have a 2008 Dodge "whatever whatever", I look that up in the guide, and it tells me which of your products are safe on the interior, seats, carpets, outside, wheels, etc. Thank you for your response!

I am planning to perform "paint correction" on my old Mercedes that has mild and heavy scratches, swirl marks and everything else that you would expect on a well-loved 23 year old car. I will clay bar first. Should I begin with V34? Can I go down to V32 if I don't see the results expected with V34?
    Also, what is the difference between the V series products and the C and P series products?

    By doing this do they permanently removed the scratches ? I debating on getting a step 2 paint correction on my Sti because it needs some love . I have 2 scratches on my drivers side door that bothers me every day . Don’t want to spend the 500 bucks for it not permanently remove them.

    Rather than the spray shine could I use an actual ceramic coating? I'm trying to figure out when the best time to ceramic coat would be. After the sealant I imagine?

    • @joey4261
      @joey4261 ปีที่แล้ว

      ceramic coatings always goes before anything else. that’s the most durable, longest lasting protection, which is why you want it under everything such as sealants, waxes, etc

      @@joey4261 I did. Almost a month ago now. Did a light machine buff since my car barely needed it. Obviously a wash first, clay, and IPA in-between everything. You know what I mean. Then once the paint was super clean and ready I applied the ceramic coating. Waited a week until I washed it again. Since then I use a quality spray ceramic detailer after my washes.

      To do the full car from start to finish could be anywhere from 4-12 hours depending on level of correction required and how detailed you want to go. Total length is really up to you - if you are looking for absolute perfection, you could theoretically work on one car across several days! 😍
