I can't understand why people have disliked this video you said that you aren't a professional but you're going to give it a go. You got good results thanks for the upload mate you have given me the confidence to have a go myself.
Got your quick compounding/polisher set up for next to nothing. This is what your channel is all about, cheap and cheerful do it yourself videos. Think you did a wonderful job mate, dont mind any haters most people would take a glance and think how nice your car looks mate. Great content as usual!
I used to do it for a living in the early 1980s. I was taught by three foreign guys who could hardly speak a word of English. They were good. They could turn an old porsche into a hot car in no time! They knew how to make money. Similar to what you did there. I enjoyed that video. It was really good that!
Used it for the first time last weekend definitely worth buying if you're a person who likes detailing your own car recommend first time to use on lowest setting 800 so you don't burn paint don't leave in one spot keep moving it over paint easy to use th-cam.com/users/postUgkxfzbDkCRyv3CFXnLZI4APZtRRuG2uRmP2 truck looks like new again used maguires black light battery life like all milwaukee products seem to hold up well 😀
StevenWillox I agree. It’s NOT a DA. I’m talking through an orifice! You can tell by the size of the neck. Their smaller powered one is a DA. I bought the 1200W version, which was only a few £s more, but it’s the one in this video, ie NOT a DA.
PLEASE READ- I've been doing this for many years so a piece of advice folks...mask up the front of the lower end curve on the bonnet where/if there are any stone chips as those chips will get much bigger when buffing.After waxing leave it to set (sounds strange but true) for a month then wax it again it'll build up a great shine....then after another month use the Autoglym Ultra gloss guys and girls and boy will it give a shine! The result will be really glossy/shiny as you wouldn't believe as it'll look like you sprayed laqueur on it....i was amazed when i did my car with Autoglym ultra gloss just once and i did it 3 times so far in 3 months. You need to leave the Ultra gloss on the paint for 45 mins in warmish weather but NOT in direct sun then wipe off...it'll smell strong when applying it so you have been warned....then after another month (seriously) apply another coat of Ultra gloss.You'll have a smile from ear to ear and shame up all your friends with a gleaming showroom shine.
When one's cars polished it's much more difficult to scratch with a key or by stones chipping the paint by getting a hold in the paint work rather than deflecting, it stays cleaner longer because the dirt and bird muck doesn't stick so easily and it becomes so much easier and faster to wash by hand. Some polishes help protect against sunlight and chemicals as well.
I've been detailing my own cars for a while now but have yet to take a brave pill and do a compound and polish on one. I REALLY want to do my XK and after watching this I do feel more confident that I can do it without f'ing it up. Well done young man, great job for a beginner.
@@shaneirle Ammo gives a lot more technical information, yeah, but as you say, he does sell his own products (which i'm sure are pretty good, dont get me wrong), so I take everything he says with a pinch of salt. Besides, I find I enjoy Guru's videos more, more laid back, and his voice and accent are pretty rad.
Black cars are probably the hardest to polish as well in my opinion, you've done a belter on that. Makes me want to crack out the dual action on mine tomorrow ! Looks epic
What top job that is,as a first attempt its looks a lot cleaner,im thinking of doing this myself to my car,im into hobby detailing and this seems the only way to restore paint, easy enough to do.
Nice video. One thing I would do different, good or bad - idk, when I decontaminate with clay I think its more efficient to NOT use anything with wax or sealant as a clay lube. In theory, you will get better results because you won't clog up the pores on your polishing pads with the wax you just applied and will get a better cut and finish from your pads. Also, a dual action machine is so much safer. Keep it up, thanks for adding to the community.
well done, good job. like you i used to do it all by hand, then 8 years ago i bought a 27 foot sailing boat, the first year i cut and polished by hand and it nearly killed me, was like polishing 2 transit vans so bought a polisher similar to yours and makes like so much easier. still took 2 to 3 days, but didnt kill me. but now sold the boat and bought a harley........ less area to keep clean. keep up the great videos
Just had my car 12 month ceramic coated, if I hadn’t, I’d be buying a machine polisher myself and giving it a go. Like the detailing vids mate, keep them up🤟🏼💪🏻🔥
Thanks for the video. I’ve been watching detailing videos all winter long trying to gain some knowledge of just what is needed in both equipment and skill to get a vehicle looking nice. Your video is one of the few where-as you admit that you have no experience in detailing a vehicle and are going to jump right in. I think I now have the confidence to just do it. BTW- I’m in Nebraska USA so where I live all you really can get done in the winter is just to keep the road salt off. Now that it’s almost April the weather is warming up which allows for outside vehicle work to be done.
Great effort for a beginner, mate. Be careful about dirty clay bars which can cause more paint problems than they solve. Use flat and keep turning it to ensure always clean. I’d recommend Autoglym Magma to deal with iron contaminants too as clay bar good for sap but not iron. And separate your cleaning products! Enjoyed your post.
What a nice finish you got wow you needed to us a bit of water as well on the polisher to stop the paint work getting hot and burning the paint work but looks as thou you new what you were doing nice job
@@melondog82 Don't need to with Meguiars Compound, as you use it the abrasive breaks down into a polish so won't burn the paint. Not so sure about the Auto Glym.
Good effort lad! Couple thing u could try see if u get better result use the white mop first with the compound an the foam head for the fine polish and try a spray bottle full of water lightly spray as u go lubricates an reduces risk of burning thru paint
Tip #2 keep all pads, buffer, towels and bottles of product off any and all surfaces ( such as your brick wall) that will contaminate your tools with grit, rock, gravel, etc.
We want to see you detailing cars because it is easy to ask and let other people do the work for our entertainment, which is why we are here. :) Now go and polish the damn thing !
Well done james for a 1st attempt that was really good. I machine polished my corsa 6 months ago and also waxed it with a decent was and its still protected 6 months on.
Great video - like you I'm a novice and had a go yesterday - got a black car which I think is more difficult than colours - went ok and pleased with result. Only problem I did have was the compound was flung all over the car in a fine mist - not sure if this is too much compound/polish or my machine was running too fast. Might help to mask off areas not being polished - but Thanks for posting
Wow very nice especially for the first time detailing the outside of a car on paint work it’s not easy. And using a Rotary buffer for detailing the pain for your first time is awesome. I did not learn on that island on the DA. Which means dual action buffer and you could hold a thing in one spot for like a minute and it won’t burn the paint. Great job and great video in your car looks much better congratulations.
really enjoying your videos mate my mrs astra bertone 1.8 differential went boom recently and came across your videos when looking into replacing crankshaft seal along with clutch gearbox etc etc.. you have a really chilled vibe with your vids.. i was a valeter a few year back and love making our cars look top notch these days, can say for sure meguires is an amazing compound G3 etc is way too harsh especially for people just getting into it. I usually use meguires where needed then follow it up with autoglym polish and finish it off with some autoglym wax usually lasts easy 2 months with washing with autoglym shampoo. good wee video man keep it up
For all the 'pros' commenting - thank you so much guys, you don't know how much you help with simple tips like 'power cord over the shoulder' and so on yours truly absolute noob
You've just tempted me more to get a machine polisher now as I was very worried about burning through the clear coat on my own car I've watched a lot of car detailing channel's myself and another good one is Forensic Car detailing another good channel too
Recently bought one of those Vonhaus polishers off Amazon, haven't been brave enough to use it yet but you've been inspirational, definitely going to give it a go
You should watch you tube videos by Dallas Paint Correction & Auto Detailing for very good advice to machine polishing. You did a pretty good job though.
Good for the first time, especially with choice of machine you are using, I would usually suggest a random orbital polisher for beginners as the standard polisher can leave holograms in the paint when an in experienced user gets a pair of hands on one, the random orbital is fool proof for any beginner,
There is nothing better than seeing a full car shining like a diamond. Give you a a smile that the joker would be proud off😁 I’m known in the game as a weekend warrior that come Saturday morning I’m out until the sun goes down and have spent over 30 hours just cleaning the 1 car.
Really good vid man. Thanks for sharing. How has the polisher stood up over time, still going strong? Also the pads that come with it, are they all the same or different cuts? Thanks for any info😎
Good effort for your first time and you started with the hardest machine to learn the rotary. Get yourself a dual action polisher and you will find it much easier for learning and you won't damage the paint. Rotary polishers you need to be carefull around edges as they generate alot more heat and its easier to burn through the clearcoat if your not careful. But good effort non the less fella.
Hi I've never used a polisher before either.... For the flat surfaces like the boot, bonnet and roof it looks straight forward but on the sides would you go horizontal with the polisher?
also that compound is for filling scratches not getting rid of them so in the future look for cutting paste and next time run in the paste into the pad otherwise you’re just scratching
Nice video mate. An i agree its shiny but if you want the ultimate finish. Use poor boys black hole. Or G3. Then G10 for the last buffing stage then your see a difference
There are tons of different kinds and colors of pads out there. How do you know which one to use. I asked on Reddit and a guy told me to start with Orange and then go to a white. Not sure what the means to be honest.
in the future use proper wax for a machine polished the compound and polish you was using was for hand polishing try a company called menzerna they have an amazing 1step and 3 step pastes and they’re actually meant for high rpms and good cutting and polishing
Probably know this already but just in case - I wouldn’t wash off the snow foam with a mitt. It’s designed to loosen dirt on the paint so rubbing it in could cause more swirls. Rinse it off then wash again 👍🏻 More confidence than me I darent use my machine yet 🙈
With this best being a rotary polisher was you abit scared ? Da seems more expensive but maybe more forgiving, I’m new to this and just wandered what your thoughts were
Auto finesse car wax is brilliant by the way. It's expensive the cheap one is £50 but it's easy to work with and it lasts and the finish is brilliant. I use it everywhere including the glass and it's cleans it brilliant and acts like rainex. The rain just beads up and rolls away. I've put about 4 layers on since the summer for preparation for the winter months
beautiful job that im using a polisher for the first time great tips
4 ปีที่แล้ว
Thanks for video :) I am exactly at the same point of detailing as you. And I am just finishing collecting all products (from different sources) and next week I am going to jump on it. Also little bit scared ;) But I hope it will be exciting and it will bring some results :)
I have a question that might sound pretty dumb, but when I use my random orbital buffer, I feel like it doesn't always spin. I marked and line on the dis and it kinda stays in one spot or goes all directions. they only way to get it to spin is if I have the pad barely touching the car. any tips?
i use william car care wash and wax and it a black pad not the white lamb wool because the lamb wool is for deep scratches then the blue and the finish one is the black pad for polish
Nice video. Gives me confidence to give it a go. I would have like to see the end results of the entire car with a before and after but I get the gist.

Look at how natural you are with the polisher, each movement looks really fluid. Awesome for a first timer 🙌
Well done! You did exceptionally well using a circular polisher! Brave man for learning on one of those over a DA but I applaud you for a great job!
Stauffer Garage except the Van Haus IS a DA Random Orbit polisher. But the advice to use one is sound.
Iain Mackie Mate that machine’s never spinning like a DA
StevenWillox I agree. It’s NOT a DA. I’m talking through an orifice! You can tell by the size of the neck. Their smaller powered one is a DA. I bought the 1200W version, which was only a few £s more, but it’s the one in this video, ie NOT a DA.
That isn't a dual action polisher , it is a rotary polisher , there is a difference
One tip; put the power cord over your shoulder so it won't rub on your paint
Hi
My car looked lovely until I used the fuckin communal brush at the jet wash.
Now there's a painful lesson to have to learn

I am really impressed, there is a massive difference to what you have worked on, you have a really good rhythm and seem very natural.

Check out forensicdetailing, he's awesome, everything you could ever need to know is there. Goodluck.
I love the way you are so basic and not with all the new and shining best equipment. GJ
Car Cleaning Guru is godly.
Ammo is better imo I do like gurus voice and is more of a trustworthy source tho

Mask off any plastic trims door handle/window rubber too.

Everyone starts from some
Where. Just keep practicing mate good job
Wool pads are usually used for cutting with compounds. Progressively softet foam pads for waxing
Be careful, this sort of thing is addictive.
It's too late mate, i saw the twinkle in his eye we've lost him lol...i know this first hand, love detailing!
Haha I did have fun lads
Big facts here guys. Addict here as well. And big ups for ya going straight in with the rotary polisher too. Too many people scared of the rotary.
will definitely add value to the car, personally I would take ring off when feeling paint as could cause scratches, love the video,
really enjoying your videos mate my mrs astra bertone 1.8 differential went boom recently and came across your videos when looking into replacing crankshaft seal along with clutch gearbox etc etc.. you have a really chilled vibe with your vids.. i was a valeter a few year back and love making our cars look top notch these days, can say for sure meguires is an amazing compound G3 etc is way too harsh especially for people just getting into it.

You install the G handle in reverse way, that setup are for the left handed person (left hand on the trigger switch)
Ultimate compound works magic 👌🏼 keep it up mate, congrats on 30k
I'm new to wanting to machine polish I'm really good at hand polishing but nothings the same as a machine to help get that better finish 👌🏾
It is easy to do and well worth doing. I did my 15 year old MX5 and it shines now
Don't forget if you do it foam car up with a forensic cleaner to take all old stuff off paint so it's fresh everytime
Great video how long is the piwer cable on this polisher
For all the 'pros' commenting - thank you so much guys, you don't know how much you help with simple tips like 'power cord over the shoulder' and so on
yours truly absolute noob
Cool video. Gives me the confidence to buy a decent rotary and do it myself rather than paying someone.

Hello friend, I have a corsa c just like this one in Brazil, with a 1.8L engine. I would like to know what tire and wheel sizes you are using?
Great results especially with the less forgiving rotary machine. Really need to invest in a polisher!
Lee Carmichael Why, what advantage is a polisher?
They both spin?
A..... but that doesn't make sense. Dont you just change pads. Not machine.
Really good vid man. Thanks for sharing. How has the polisher stood up over time, still going strong? Also the pads that come with it, are they all the same or different cuts? Thanks for any info😎
Good effort for your first time and you started with the hardest machine to learn the rotary.

Fantastic video man!!!!
Use sonax bsd from eurocar parts, it’s cheap and gives amazing protection. Use it when drying the car
Hi I've never used a polisher before either.... For the flat surfaces like the boot, bonnet and roof it looks straight forward but on the sides would you go horizontal with the polisher?
also that compound is for filling scratches not getting rid of them so in the future look for cutting paste and next time run in the paste into the pad otherwise you’re just scratching
Absolutely great job for your first attempt buddy
Great video, given me a bit more confidence to give this a go myself!
Nice video mate. An i agree its shiny but if you want the ultimate finish. Use poor boys black hole. Or G3. Then G10 for the last buffing stage then your see a difference
I used to help someone in a small Faye age, and they used to use water with the polish, otherwise it can burn away the paint because of the friction
There are tons of different kinds and colors of pads out there. How do you know which one to use. I asked on Reddit and a guy told me to start with Orange and then go to a white. Not sure what the means to be honest.
Great video, gives me the confidence to have a go at machine polishing my car now. Was the polisher a VonHaus one?
in the future use proper wax for a machine polished the compound and polish you was using was for hand polishing try a company called menzerna they have an amazing 1step and 3 step pastes and they’re actually meant for high rpms and good cutting and polishing
Probably know this already but just in case - I wouldn’t wash off the snow foam with a mitt. It’s designed to loosen dirt on the paint so rubbing it in could cause more swirls. Rinse it off then wash again 👍🏻
More confidence than me I darent use my machine yet 🙈
Interesting. I'm looking at buying a DA polisher myself so it's interesting to see what can be done with ageing paint on a car.
Random but what editing software do you use and where do u find your music for your vids :)
Check out forensicdetailing channel. Awesome for newbies and pros alike.
Hi, nice job. What is the brand of your Pads?
Excellent demo. Thanks for very informative and intelligent videos.
With this best being a rotary polisher was you abit scared ? Da seems more expensive but maybe more forgiving, I’m new to this and just wandered what your thoughts were
Whats best for clay barring, is it actual bar, towel or mitts? Do you recommend anything specific? Thank you.
If is your first polishing, use orbitale polishing machine and not rotary. Orbitale is more safe for your clear coat (Hot clear coat, swirls...)
Auto finesse car wax is brilliant by the way. It's expensive the cheap one is £50 but it's easy to work with and it lasts and the finish is brilliant. I use it everywhere including the glass and it's cleans it brilliant and acts like rainex. The rain just beads up and rolls away. I've put about 4 layers on since the summer for preparation for the winter months
beautiful job that im using a polisher for the first time great tips
Thanks for video :) I am exactly at the same point of detailing as you. And I am just finishing collecting all products (from different sources) and next week I am going to jump on it. Also little bit scared ;) But I hope it will be exciting and it will bring some results :)
Im new to polishing but i tought the wool pad was for cutting
I have a question that might sound pretty dumb, but when I use my random orbital buffer, I feel like it doesn't always spin. I marked and line on the dis and it kinda stays in one spot or goes all directions. they only way to get it to spin is if I have the pad barely touching the car. any tips?
Wool pad with compound and foam with polish.
Great work. Inspired me to give it a go now. What polishing machine did you use mate?
Can I ask what polisher are you using
i use william car care wash and wax and it a black pad not the white lamb wool because the lamb wool is for deep scratches then the blue and the finish one is the black pad for polish
Nicely done! We all start somewhere. Im gna start soon.
We’ve all Gotta start from somewhere, good video mate 👍🏻
Can you link the polisher? Been toying with the idea of buying one for a few years now.
Fair do's mate honest open review and don't forget you can't make a silk purse out of a sows ear.
I will be doing this at the weekend hope it's as easy as you've made it look, top content 👍👍
David Bettles cheers boss! Best of luck
Quite impressive well done 👍🏾
Fair play to you mate, doesn’t seem that hard. How much pressure with the buffers you reckon you put on?
Let it glide and move by its self and normal pressure nothing hard. do not work in the curves hard and follow the paintwork
Nice video. Gives me confidence to give it a go. I would have like to see the end results of the entire car with a before and after but I get the gist.
James you have done well.
You can see the detailing in the brick work from the house on the bonnet. Go to the roof and it’s blurry with no detailing
Would you recommend that polisher, seen one in ebay.. Ps good vid
So I can compound the whole car and finish that , after that polish the whole car right.? With the symbols on the car.? Tape them .?
I have that same mop haha got it last week im just waiting for ok weather to do my car ....be on my channel also soon as im done ...great video pal
