IPA surface after claying. This removes any grease and tar from paint. Prep is the key. Under promise and over deliver. Great vid 👍
Thanks so much for your videos Oscar. You seem super cool and it's nice of you to share your knowledge with us.
I'm glad to share what I can!
Awesome info
Glad you enjoyed!
Hi would you do a video on hand polishing for those of us who don’t have a polishing machine. What are the best products to use to get the best possible results? Thanks
This detailer is my friend 😊
ahah suuupp
*_dreamville_*
Best in Texas! 💪💪
aha thanks David!
Do you have to measure paint before polishing?
👍 Awesome bro
Please any tips/tricks on long throw polisher stalling on curved panels vs 8mm throw
haha yeah, that can be a problem. What polisher do you have?
Max shine 15mm can't afford griots or rupes. Much different then a 8mm throw.
I’m glad I take care of my car. I do 2 bucket wash method usually once a week; did my first correction on my first car 6 months ago since a DA polisher took some time to save for, used some meguiars ultimate compound and polish plus a clay all over; came out great, decided to apply 2 coats of jetseal from chemical guys even to the windows, looked amazing and the fact it looks better tham before it is amazing
Woohoo! Good project
How much cars you can polish with one bottle of polish product? Thanks!
Ehh, it really depends. Not sure since I use different products all the time.
What about pressure on the machine when both polishing and compounding?
For compounding, typically medium down pressure with slow arm movement. Polishing will be less pressure and could go with a bit faster arm movement
You’re in Houston right? Do you have a website or anything to book you?? Lmk man!
Dustin Jones yeah, I’m pretty sure you can book him at r3detailing.com.
By your arm speed I can see that you were doing a one step polish. Do you follow it up with a sealant or wax afterwards?
Yes, with a softer pad and choice of sealant/wax
I watch a lot of your videos but I am afraid if I was a “ beginner “ this one would leave me with more questions than answers . But I do like the way you seem to always be busting ass keep up the hard work . See ya next time.
haha thanks. No video can cover most of the questions
What do suggest to do when it rains for work? I see Houston has had some rain and flooding I'm out here in San Antonio it's been raining on and off for the past two weeks.
1) Plenty of industries are impacted by rain, not just detailers
2) A % of your sales should go into a backup account to always have money when you can't work
3) Ask if you can work out of their garage or if they'd like to bring it to you
4) Work on your marketing/operations while your are slow
5) Accept that it sucks and you have to roll with the punches
State Of Mind University i felt that
:,( finally got around to waxing and putting a coating on my car and 2 days later it rained kms.... well i mean, just more incentive to fix my rust problems during the summer lmao
At least its not snow anymore
Not 2 weeks ago it snowed a bit and it was that slushie shit
Same process with a Uro-fiber pad would have perfected the job.
Plenty of methods avaliable
Have you ever made a video of how to buffer yet?
What do you mean?
Detail Groove that spinning thing to take out scratches
How you like that polisher would you say it's better than the other one you have used
The g15 vs the gg6? I feel like the gg6 doesn't bog down as much and has more power? But of course, the log throw covers way more surface
Hey mate
Great video
Can you do a video on restoring red paint ?
And does polishing red paint make it fade quicker over time
Great video my friend. Side note, which mic are you using? Sounds amazing
Thanks! I think it's the Rhode VideoMic Pro? It's old. They have a lot more models (I think lol)
What do you think about the 3D HD speed aio for beginners? I haven't polished and I have my brand griots just sitting around.
Bro I’ve been wanting to ask. What camera do you use to record your videos with.
Just upgraded to Sony A7 iii w/ 18-35 f4 lens
Looks good. I see that you’re using a DA polisher. I use variable speed Makita buffer with foam pads. Is this ok or should I get a DA? My cars do turn out pretty dope! Oh and I highly recommend Collinite marine wax, awesome stuff and it lasts a while. Thanks man
As long as you're getting the results you want with the machine you use, that's all that matters
Detail Groove I’m just wondering why so many are using the DA polisher
I think a 2 step is needed. #nottrolling!
ahah- it's a lot of work
For the 2 step to occur there has to be a paying customer if they ask for it than yeah it would be done. But daily driver dosent need more than a 1 step or an all in one
A 2 step means basically doing this twice, albeit a different product. But it's still spending an extra hour for a
What are your favorite shoes to wear while doing car washes?
Sandals
I think Oscar likes going bare foot
Socks & Sandals ftw. Cant afford Sandals? Crocs
I rock the Jesus 95s
うまい👍👍👍
I’m only 14 and people don’t take me that seriously and I want to set my prices higher but I feel people will think it’s to high because I’m young what do I do ? 🤔
What do you recommend to moist cutting pads and how moist should it be ? I’m having a hard time. Mobile detailer having to polish cars in the sun here and their. Please give me some input. Thank you!
Hmm, what do you mean moist? As in priming the pad before polishing?
Yes that’s what I meant
I just tested megiuars mirror glaze on my vw passat using griots garage 6 inch polisher with orange cutting pad but saw almost no change. Seems that my clearcoat is very hard so in that case would you recommend I use a microfiber pad instead or a stronger compound ? Thanks
Griots Fast correction cream and low lint wool pad. It'll leave it almost perfect 💪
I will be trying Meg's Ultimate compound..
Thanks for reply, I tried again with my same setup and I removed about 90 percent of swirls on my black passat. The first time around I was focusing on a large section rather than small ones
@@supernaturalself3577 megs ultimate compound is good aswell! Doesnt have a super aggressive bite but finishes down really far!
@@TheFatboy714 yeah smaller section passes are always better! I wish i can do smaller section but mostly everyone gets the all in one polish package. Not gonna go work for 8 hours for 350$ wouldn't be worth it.
