I’m use it in fresh water only and water marks are terrible, even if we dry it after we remove it from the water. Is there a way you can update us on the products you use. Starting to get confused after watching all your video’s. From brushes, waxes, sealants, spray on rinse off, etc.

    @GrumpsHatesThis 4 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    Hey man, really appreciate your videos and I hope you continue to share you knowledge with us!
    I was wondering if at some point you could do a video explaining how you choose which type of pad to use when starting a job. The different between using a foam pad and a microfiber pad with the Jescar or with the menzerna products.
    Again thanks for all the helpful videos!

    • @DrakesDetailing
      @DrakesDetailing  4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Thank you for the video idea! Those are really good questions! I’ll Try to get something up for you!
      For now, I only use the micro fiber pad when there is no oxidation on the surface and I just want to apply wax or jescar sealant!
      I’ll use the grey or orange lake country force foam pad with wax or jescar sealant when I need todo a light amount of cutting to work the product in if the surface has light oxidation.
      I personally never really use micro fiber pads for correcting, never really liked how they work on my flex.
      The orange and grey force pads from lake country are great for removing light oxidation, and removing swirls marks!

    Silly question. When you're out on a wash, what do you use as your water source for the pressure washer? It doesn't look like to carry a huge water tank, so do you just use a water hookup at the customer's location?

      I have Tried 3m and it is pretty good! There are a lot of good compounds and polishes out there! A lot of the time it comes down to personal preference and depending on what products you are comfortable with and know how to use. A lot of products break down differently and cut differently so It comes down to knowing how to use certain products and also what you’re comfortable with. I typically stick with Ardex products and menzerna products only because I have used them for years and I know how to work them very very well. Not saying that they are the best product out there but I know how to use them and I know what to expect and the results I get are always consistent because I know how to work the products.

    Hey bro, I'm brand new to this world of detailing I've been watching your videos all morning. Now if I can pick your brain. Long story short using jescar didn't take oxidation off. I have a da and various pads. What's my quickest route to oxidation removal before jes ar will work. I know that's a tough one each case is specific but what would you suggest?

    • @DrakesDetailing
      @DrakesDetailing  18 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Hey bro! Jescar won’t take oxidation off. If you’re looking for something quick, I would try chop top compound by shine supply with a yellow pad, then follow up with a dual action polisher with wake up, polished by shine supply, then Jescar powerlock.

    I just bought a Shurhold pro oscillating buffer. Super heavy. Also, I have a hard time finding wool polishing pads. Would you do a video on polishing pads? I’m new to the business, and used wool on my own boat: 3M cutting pad and polishing pad. Shurhold sells mainly sponge pads that are expensive and don’t work as well as my wool pads. The pads for the pro buffer are all sponge. Not sure why. What are your thoughts on which pads work best for which application?

    • @DrakesDetailing
      @DrakesDetailing  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      That’s would take a lot to explain! It’s a much need video and I will make it! Give me a few weeks!
      Short answer is foam pads are more for polishing and waxing and wool pads are for cutting oxidation out.

    Just added the new HF 20mm da polisher to my Porter Cable and Shurhold units. The consensus is to change the 6" backing plate to a 5" plate. Do you agree or would you stay with the 6" plate for boat detailing ? Also, do you know of any other mfgs. other then Rupes that have 5" plates compatible with the HF unit ? Great site

    What do you like using for DEEP rust stains? Just did a 39 contender that had really deep rust stains on the motor mounts on the transom and they just laughed at the rust remover I had. Also, how do you compound around tight areas that you cant get a machine in? TIA!

    • @DrakesDetailing
      @DrakesDetailing  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Deep rust marks usually have to be wet sanded out or compounded with a wool pad. I usually like to just hit it with 2000 grit sand paper and polish it back out. As for tight spots, use the flex pxe80 with 1 inch pads, or by hand.

      Nah, I never clay boats... I always recommend a light polish before coating, even if it’s brand new! Use like menzerna 2500 on a white lake country force pad.
      After you polish it, wash with dawn , dry it, alcohol wipe it, then coat it.

      Yellow? That’s kinda weird... try bleaching it with comet.
      After you may need to take some compound to it with a rotary buffer.
      Keep it on the slowest setting and work it it. That should remove the chalk.
