CUT and GLOSS: The 1-step polish combo to quickly shine your paint!
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 14 ต.ค. 2024
- This is a pad/polish combination that can work EXTRAORDINARILY well on most paint. It's combining our wool cutting pad with Gold Standard Polish for a "one step" polish. The goal here isn't perfection, but if you want to remove a lot of defects in a short amount of time -- it's a fantastic one two punch. Note: always do a test spot. Sometimes the waffle pad, paired with Gold Standard Polish, is all you really need!

You guys are revolutionizing this industry. Love how Nick guides the video. I've watched most of your videos, but I understand the way that Nick does it will help people new to the channel. In my opinion you guys are a premium brand. Can't wait to see you grow and innovate.
I appreciate that!
Only enthusiasts and Detailers see swirls. Other see shiny paint.
Exactly
And we’re all enthusiasts!
True but this car wasn't stripped down prior to polishing like he said so it's a bit of extra labor to get the desired results. Which isn't nearly an inconvenience as a 2 or 3 step.
I couldn’t see the difference, “after” just looked like a shinier version with the same amount of swirls.
@@philamato9583Well, to be fair the title says cut and gloss 1 step to make your paint shiny. No where in the title does it say paint correction
I used Gold Standard + Gold Waffle Pad to work out some light-medium defects on my new-used polar white MB GLC43. It’s one of the best combos I’ve used and while I wasn’t going for perfection, it did a pretty damn good job reviving the clarity and that’s all I wanted for my daily driven car.
Thank you.
Great video guys and love your clear buckets. I have a rather deep scratch on one of my rear gloss fender wells i need to tackle one day. Your videos are very helpful
Thank you.
Excellent video!
I’m a rinseless guy, that green apple smell is heavenly!
Thank you.
Used rinse less wash for the first time today along with the sponge. Man it was slick and much easier and quicker to clean up and put everything up when I was finished. Sure we will still use our microfiber wash mitts and foam cannon. But this is an awesome way to clean the car also.
Also used the spot remover. Did not do the spray on a dry panel and work it in with a towel option. Sprayed it on the wet car after the wash and let it dwell for a minute and rinsed it off. Thank you for showing us that we can do it this way as well. The products are so versatile. Sure doing this part of the job will probably be more effective when doing this with a dry panel and spraying the spot remover on it and working it in with a towel. But it’s nice to still be able to do it this way also. We have a ceramic coating and there were some light spots on the car that you cannot see unless you look hard for them. Many are gone and the rest that are still there we will work them out with a machine one day soon
Gotta say this is the most fun I have ever had with washing my vehicle and using products
These products are awesome. Thanks Yvan & Nick. You both work so well together. As one person put it. Nick does a great job leading the questions for those beginners and those who are learning more than they did before.
Thank you.
Great video. I ve watched almost all and you still teach me something every time. The polish balling up on the wax. I ve never noticed that. Now I’ll be looking!
Thank you.
Great video! One stop shop, with excellent knowledge and great products! The standard is the standard!!!
Much appreciated!
Even though many of the videos cover territory you've already covered, I still enjoy watching them.
Glad to hear it!
I love your videos guys, always "fresh", high-quality, fast and effective ways to make a car shiny and clean, thanks for the experience
Thanks for watching!
I use rinseless, not just on my cars, but also my house windows and vinyl siding. Stuff works amazing, oh, and also smells great! Cheers.
Thanks for sharing!
Incredible sides is my all-time favorite smelling and foamy
Thank you.
Incredible suds is great too :)
I think incredible suds is going to be better than incredible sides is.
SCIENCE! I LOVE when Yvan and Nick talk the actual science behind things instead of just a "trust me it works." I get that a lot of people probably like the short and sweet of it, but I'm a big fan of the science of things; if I understand the science of it, I can explain how it works and why it works to customers.
Why is the least answered question, and the one that should be prioritized.
@@diydetailofficial If you have established customers who already trust you, yes. New customers are often skeptical, in my experience. Being able to explain the HOW in addition to the WHY has established my credibility with customers wary of spending their hard earned dollars
Great job guys. Looks 1000x better.
Thanks 👍
I recently purchased the rinseless kit, 5 year ceramic kit, ceramic maintenance kit. While I was waiting for them to show up, I saw one of your videos had a red "Jewlers pad" for polishing. The kit I have came with the yellow pad and gold standard polish. My truck is fairly new, low miles, and just a few swirl marks.
Will the yellow pad be too aggressive?
Should I get the red pad?
I haven't used the products yet, due to weather and my GMC 3500hd crew cab long bed doesn't fit in my garage. They smell great, and im looking forward to using them.
I really enjoy your content and your chemistry. You two work great together and have great educational conversations.
The gold standard pad will do a great job.
🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤great video u both keep informing with simple techinic well keep progressing well am new in edmonton since nov stil serching a job very hard to get a job 🎉🎉🎉🎉 keep shining
Awesome! Thank you!
Awesome video as always guys!!!
One question….
Where can I get the same wash bucket you guys are using?
I’ve been looking for those and can’t find them lol.
Thanks in advance for sharing 🙂👍
Thank you. Local restaurant supply, they are food storage buckets.
@@diydetailofficial AWESOME!!!! Thanks again.
Thats why you need to erase or prep the surface before polishing. Great video.
Unfortunately that doesn’t remove a wax
@@diydetailofficialDo you have a video that answers this. If we have used drying aids from other brands like PNS bead maker or Obsessed Garages drying aid products.
1.Will those products cause problems like the wax did on this car when we go to use either your Gold standard polish or
2. If after we wash and decontaminate a car and use a polishing machine to apply your ceramic gloss product like you showed us in one of your videos?
3. Lastly if we have used your ceramic gloss or bead maker products. Will we need to remove them before using the gold standard polish to make corrections or to simply polish the car.
Thanks again for the awesome videos and products.
When I do my rinseless wash at home, I always say “on the verge of dripping” when I take the sponge out of the bucket.
Sorry
😂 me too
Love this content guys!
Im looking at some cheap intro DA/Random orbital polisher to start learning to polish.
Would your wool pad still be effective on a polisher with a shorter (8mm) offset?
Yes
Love all the informative videos!
Glad you like them!
@@diydetailofficialwhat light did you use in this video. Need to get one.
@@26-CJ our 25mm DA
@@diydetailofficialsorry what light was used to see the paint. I need to get one. And if you can also recommend a larger one for use as well as the small one you used.
Also where do you get your red gloves and do they irritate your skin or are they free of the irritants that some gloves have.
Sorry, from harbour freight, don’t worry about the type of light. Any concentrated light source works.
Best smell so far is the tire shine , just fabulous !!
Thank you.
Bought the Gold Standard polish and yellow waffle pads.
The spray nozzle that came on the bottle didn't have a spray pattern option, only a stream that was way to heavy so I had to use one of my own nozzles to get a spray.
The yellow waffle pad couldn't remove even the finest little scratches that could only be seen with perfect light even with 3 passes.
Had to switch to a medium polish pad. The polish is OK but I'd skip the yellow pad for sure.
Check with the store that sold you the polish, we provide Tolco sprayers. Have them send you the correct sprayer.
My problem with gloves(and maybe it'll be fixed when I do a Rinseless wash) is that the cut isn't tall enough to get my wash media to the grit guard to scrub on, then I just end up with the wash solution trapped in the glove. Maybe I'm doing it wrong?
I'm sure the squeezing out of the sponge, and the subsequent fast escaping wash solution, also contributes to the sponge leaving the dirt behind.
With DIY Detail Rinse Less Wash and the Legacy Sponge, no need to dunk that deep. Just dunk and lift and the sponge is clean, by the time you squeeze you’re just removing solution.
Hello. Very nice video. I've been to your website several times and the gold standard polishing kit is always out of stock. When will you get this in?
If all goes as planned, June 10th
I should seriously invest in one of those kegs. 😂
Https://www.thedetailguy.biz/shop
rinseless + sponge.
Rinseless lifts the dirt.
Sponge absorbs the lifted dirt, and when you squeeze, it flushes it out.
In comparison, other mitts don’t really do the same.
Like when you wring a towel, the outside layer might push it out, but the dirt on the inside layer is compressed.
Correct, the sponge releases everything
I need to know where you got those rolling stools from? Those look awesome 👌
Prototype I’m making
Fun video. Was this to show how a "quick" detail can actually be done with the wool pad alone? I ask because you often speak of your yellow waffle pad as the pad to have if there was just one in our quiver. Given the relative newness of the paint of this car, wondering why you didn't go after it with your yellow pad only since it both cuts and gives gloss.. was it just the time savings of the wool pad? Finally, when will you have your legacy sponge back in stock? Thanks.
Time Savings, plus we like to show different ways of achieving the goal.
We are impatiently waiting on Lake Country to make the Legacy sponge, they can’t keep up. Many of our distributors still have inventory
Https://diydetail.com/pages/distributors
@@diydetailofficial Thanks for your reply. Check out the distis..but all out of stock! Good/bad problem to have :)
Unfortunately very bad
If I don't have a sprayer, can I just use the foam cannon to spray on before contact wash?
Also, does this "strip" off old waxes etc or would i need a stripping type soap?
Washing, or even stripping soaps will not remove a wax, but don’t worry about it. The first pass with the polisher will remove it.
Would be nice to see paint mil readings before and after polish. To see cut results from microfiber cutting pad.
Noted!
Jeez you guys blew up! I remember subbing at like not even 5k I believe. How long ago was that? I think it was only a few months ago if I remember correctly.
About October 2022
Need to do this to my Black '01 Mustang Bullitt. Has 29k miles but the paint looks very "hazed" and definitely swirly, yet still insane gloss lol. Wanna revive it later this year🤟.
Excellent, please share your results in our facebook group
I like the waterless wash 🧽 and love the smell! I use it in-between washes or for the occasional bird droppings. Also works great as a glass cleaner! I actually did a maintenance wash on my car that is ceramic coated with the 3 year DIY coating and used cream gloss as a drying aid! OMG it is so slick and smells so good! I am a person that loves when my car smells clean 🧼 Great job guys keep up the good work! 👏✨💦
Thank you.
I guess for a car lot thats acceptable but for most paint correcter and expereirenced detailers that needed more passes IMO. I do lie the rinse-less wash Keg though
Thank you.
When do u think the da will b avaliable!! I am ready to purchase when they are available I will wait patiently!!
Mid July
Great video guys big difference 💪🏼💪🏼👍🏼👍🏼 need to do the same. My new vehicle has somewhat the same.
Thanks 👍
When will your Polisher kits be available again? I am looking to buy a new DA but wouldn’t want to buy one from any other company. 🤞
Early July
Great video.
Thank you.
If you weren’t polishing the car
How would you dry the vehicle if you were planning to ceramic coat it right after?
With either Incredible Suds or Rinseless wash
If using DIY Detail Rinse Less Wash simply dry. If using DIY Detail Incredible Suds, after rinsing use a light mist of DIY Detail Rinse Less Wash as a drying lubricant.
@@diydetailofficial would the rinseless drying aid interfere with applying 3 year graphene or would you have to use panel prep the apply the coating?
@@Crownauto_detail always panel prep before applying a coating.
DIY Detail Rinse Less Wash leaves nothing on the surface. That said you should always use either DIY Detail Panel Prep or C6 Ceramics Adhesion Promoter Polish (APP) before applying a Ceramic Coating
Hey guys, something that I’ve noticed watching yawls videos over the last three weeks is that all y’all‘s videos you never mention, please like, share, and subscribe. it helps us build the channel and spread the word of DIY detail and also C6 Hydro and diamond ceramic coatings. ❤
Thanks, yes we do mention it on occasion, but discreetly
Does the clay towel process cause more marring and/or swirls? Thanks and great video!
None of you follow or methods
Meaning?
If you use our Perforated Synthetic Decontamination Towel and proper lubrication
Thank you for the share. I’ve experienced wet streaks the next day. On the car after I compounded, polished, glazed and sealed my personal car. How would you correct it or is it too much material? Was it not worked in enough or I didn’t leave it on long enough. I wiped it off with a waterless wash and it seemed to go away. Just curious on why there were wet looking streak marks?
What products were you using
@@diydetailofficial meguires ultimate compound and polish, then chemical guys glaze and jet seal.
I’m not familiar with those products, best ask the manufacturers directly.
@@diydetailofficial appreciate it
I just painted a spot on my rear quarter panels where I had some rust. I repaired the rust and painted and cleared the panel, blending into the sail panel on the c pillar. Going to be wet sanding with 1500,2000 grit to feather the clear coat line and some orange peal. Is gold standard enough cut to be able to polish out sanding markings? I have the wool pad and yellow pad with gold standard or can go to other options but wanted to stay with diy if possible
Yes, start with the wool pad
So odd question bc I'm curious if it actually makes a difference. In the wash bucket, does the grid make a difference or matter if you never let your sponge reach the bottom of the bucket?
Yes it keeps the larger particles out of the turbulence once the sink.
Do i need to say this again? Great video as always. Enjoy this stuff

Curious about detailing soft top on a convertible . I don’t think I have seen a Diy video on this topic.

If I polish a test spot and figure I have the right pad with the gold standard polish and like the results, can I polish an entire panel without wiping (cleaning the pad between each section with rinseless) then wipe the whole panel with rinseless? I like doing as much of a process at a time as products permit, so is there any issue leaving the gold standard on for the amount of time it takes to polish the rest of that panel?
That’s perfect
Could u give a run down of how to use your products to best protect a camper/rv? Fiberglass exterior. Ty. Joe
Exactly the same as any car
So for most paint surfaces, a regular type/medium polish then it's really all about the pad?
Not all polishes are pad dependent, or can be adapted
Can you start with microfibre pad and do good finish on 15mm da with yellow pad, not ready to buy rotary yet
Yes
Might be a silly question but if they are using a pressure washer anyway why do a rinseless wash , why not use soap ?
Because DIY Detail Rinse Less Wash saves a few steps, and in many cases is a safer wash.
Can you use a waffle pad on more than one vehicle after polishing the whole vehicle? I polished some of the Black trim on a vehicle and even after cleaning it with rinseless wash, It still was very dark in color. Mainly wanting to know if I can reuse that pad to polish another vehicle?
Yes, that’s fine, it’s just stained from the trim on the oxidation.
Great, thanks for the reply!
So if you had a 9mm polisher would you just do 5 or 6 passes to get these results?
Yes
Tried a small bottle of your rinse less wash a while back. Long story short I’ve got a gallon on order 🤘🏼🤘🏼 thank you for products that exceed expectations! DIY will always have a place in Drago’s Detailing supplies!
Thank you.
My vehicle has a coating on it now, to polish with a one step pad and polish, would 3 passes be enough to prep for the new coating?
Yes
I have a question,
What do i tell people when they ask me what the difference is between diy 5 year coating and the "professional line of coating only certified installers use"?
In the case of our coatings, they are professional coatings without the name tag
These two guys are not rocket scientists. They’re sponge-ologists. You must become one with the sponge 🧽 and think like a sponge.
Thank you.
What if you don't have rinseless wash to wipe off the polish? What would you use?
I would suggest getting some rinseless, or something simply wiping dry.
If I clean my car with rinseless and I want to do my wife's next, would I be able to use the same bucket of rinseless or should I use a fresh bucket of rinseless?
Yes you can.
Industry keeps working on projects to sand away clear coat. What are we working on to add to the clear coat. For a wax to be used in ultra-high heat
We are working on it
Will the gold standard polish and yellow pad work on older headlights?
Yes
Are the clear buckets a potential future product?
No, you can get them from a local restaurant supply.
@@diydetailofficial Ahh understood. The color scheme of the grit guard had me thinking maybe a product bundle of sorts. Thanks for the info. 👍
Do you need a 21mm DA polisher for best results for the gold standard polish
No
After I polish with gold standard can I put a paste carnauba wax on top of that and then spray with beet maker
Yes
The wool pad will not leave any hologram?
Not with the the DA
What do you do with wheels and tires when using rinse-less washes ?
Spray on DIY Detail Rinse Less Wash, and Wash, or Wash as you normally do the wheels. Rinse less isn’t waterless
If we only have a rotary, how would you change your methods to do this?
Gold Standard foam pad
I’d love to see a ridiculously oxidized paint restoration (matte to shine) and the approach you would use with the Gold Standard pads.
Working on finding such a car.
@@diydetailofficial i know of one in AZ! 😆
@justintowne1 want to drive it to Omaha?
When will you have more rotary and Pro DA for sale again?
In 6 weeks
@@diydetailofficial ok thank you 🙏🏾
when diy polishers will be available with 220V support? thanks
On their way
while waiting for this
which rotary polisher would you suggest to pick up for red jeweling pad? flex pe 14-2 or rupes lh19e?
Just wondering guys, will decontamination towel scratch or mar the paint in any way?
Not the DIY Detail Perforated Synthetic Decontamination Towel when used as we instruct.
this is a first for me. I had a client who bought a used car that appeared to have wax or tire shine all over the car even windows that I could not seem to get off with tar remover or anything. Windows were cloudy on the outside with a thick film any ideas?
Pledge is probably what’s on the surface.
@@diydetailofficial Do you know of what I might use to get it off? It is ALL over the Honda Pilot. Roof, windows, all panels and has been sitting in the Georgia sun. Why would they put Pledge all over the car?
Have you folks considered selling your products on Amazon? I think the shipping cost from your website is holding a lot of folks back from ordering individual products from your site.
They are on Amazon
@@diydetailofficial perfect! Thank you!

Ceramic gloss smells sooooo good like candy. But I have a feeling it cant be good to breath in.
Don’t stick your nose in the bottle, but the fragrance while applying is just that, a fragrance.
@@diydetailofficial unfortunately most are unaware that anything we smell our liver has to break down. Fragrance can be incredibly hard on us as it coats the naval with a synthetic oil. This can wreak havoc on the indocrine system for both men and women, and could overtime result in brain cell damage and disrupted hormone production. For men in particular its great at killing testosterone. Interestingly enough since synthetic fragrance has gotten popular (as well as fluoride and all the other chemicals they feed us) one could observe a society where men are becoming more docile and feminine all the way down to thinking they're women.
So as much as I love your products (including their scents), its not "just a fragrance"
All in good faith, we should care about our health otherwise the pharmaceutical companies put more money in their pockets that they dont need, with more poison that we dont need. As detailers were exposed to some nasty stuff its important we understand the repercussions and that PPE is so important for us!
I know you guys now say DIY is now on Amazon and I do see somewhat of an Amazon direct store.. but it still seems half baked. A lot of the items are either out of stock, sold by a third party (no Prime), or you guys increased the price vs your website. For example Rinseless is 16.99 on your site but on Amazon it’s 20.99? Also a lot of stuff is missing.
What we want is DIY prices, sold by DIY direct, via Amazon with Prime - and your *entire* lineup. Not just 1 or 2 products.
We can’t afford to sell for the same price on Amazon as our store. We would have to pay to sell there. Shipping on Amazon is not free, it gets charged to the seller.
Use 7-8 sponges/wash mitts, do not re-dip into wash bucket
That’s great
Rinseless is still better than drive thru carwash
Agreed
First and ready
Thank you.

What happened to “never use a sponge on your car”?
That died 16 years ago when I engineered the first Rinse less Wash sponge. You dish or grout sponge, no. This is designed specifically for the purpose of safely and efficiently detailing.
Still alot of defects in the paint.
Remember when you polish , you don’t remove defects, you remove the clearcoat down to the lever of the defect.
