Great Videos, I have learned alot and am amazed at what your product can do.

[@ChemicalGuys]

Thanks so much for being part of the Chemical Guys family!!

[@freestylinfool3670]

These tutorials are great, I now have people asking who details my cars. I am starting my own detailing side hustle.
1. Can you recommend a Torq DA, battery, or cord.
2. How many vehicles will the ceramic kit cover?
Thank you for making these videos.

[@marioguzman3611]

Thank you guys. Great 3 videos I’m buying these products so i follow the whole process 👍

[@ChemicalGuys]

Happy detailing!!!

[@michaeljackson6507]

Hey you got the car looking good

[@qckalvin]

Dang! That baby looking smooth!

[@ChemicalGuys]

🤩

[@KristinPittman-fm8pe]

Hi guys. You all are great. Could you do a video on how to revive exterior faded trim?

[@bryanlloyd1099]

Very nice work!

[@ChemicalGuys]

Glad you enjoyed the video!

[@faaustin]

Holly crapola
When I get my new Yoda delivered gonna do a fulll detail per steps. B A shine

[@danielmiramontes8611]

Can you wash your car dry it and then skip polish and ceramic and just apply a glaze then jet sealant and finish it with the butter wet wax ?

[@Rabbit.760]

There's a tiny layer of oxidation you can't see. You would want to at least buff by hand with 1 drop of VSS and 4 drops of V38 works well

[@sld2155]

Wish you guys would do a series on washing the different products out of microfibers, pads, etc. Does a washing machine really get all the product out?

[@ChemicalGuys]

Hey! Thanks for the amazing video ideas, we will be sure to get this video done!

[@Detroit4Life1944]

Quick question. Are there any pro’s/cons behind using the polishing tool vs a drill with drill brush attachments?

[@kennethleung7013]

Thanks for all the great videos, always love watching from chemical guys. In the video it says 10-15 mins to let the glaze or sealant to cure and then can wipe off. is there a waiting time between after wiping off and doing the next step or we can go ahead and start sealing after wiping off the glaze immediately?
Also if I do the full detailing as listed in the flow chart and want to do a weekly wash after are there things I need to be aware of? I assume a gentler soap to not strip all the seal / wax off, regular wash method and just dry and use quick detail spray as needed? I read up a lot on how to do the full detail but then don't want to waste all the effort at my next regular wash.
thanks!

[@faaustin]

How many uses / Rav 4 size cars from the pad that comes with Carbon Force. How many pads per kit
Can extra pads be ordered
Cool video. Or one bottle one car?
I’m gonna give myself 2 full days
Later

[@Arash.vahidzadeh]

Can I apply ceramic coating on side mirrors and car Navigation system? Thank you for your answer.

[@sarata_7779]

Amazing video! Can I apply only Jetseal, Spray Shine and skip ceramic? I am not doing professional polishing/glazing and I wonder if without ceramic the car will be also protected

[@ChemicalGuys]

Absolutely, that is perfectly fine!

[@rx7turbo287]

I m in love with ur busy products!!! The c4 brought my Infiniti back to life, got a question i finished p4 I plan on getting butter, do i ceremaic first before butter or do I even need it? Or should I do more to prep the surface before ceremic

[@ChemicalGuys]

Hi there! Yes, apply ceramic to a bare surface and then it can be layered with your favorite glaze, sealant and/or wax.

[@josephel]

We need this videos in Spanish too please guys

[@ChemicalGuys]

Thanks so much for your feedback!

[@prodwavvy]

@@ChemicalGuys 😭

[@freestylinfool3670]

I am an Australian who is trying to learn Spanish, so this request would be great.

[@shadowviper957]

I may have missed if you did mention, but how long after the carbon force application before applying a glaze or hydroslick?

[@ChemicalGuys]

Hi there! Allow at least three hours before applying additional coatings.

[@808SSCamaro]

Where does difficult to remove water spots come in? Thanks Guys!

[@ChemicalGuys]

Hi Eddie! Stubborn water spots can be removed with machine polishing. Check out Part 2.

[@C3Gaming1]

I do have a question….if I apply ceramic coating, should I apply any glaze, seal or wax?

[@ChemicalGuys]

For maximum shine and protection we recommend it!

[@C3Gaming1]

@@ChemicalGuys thank you! I just wasn't sure if it would be a waste or not

[@TimLinklater]

Thanks for the advice. Can you apply more than one coat of ceramic for a shinier, more durable finish? Or is that unnecessary?

[@ChemicalGuys]

Hey Tim! Absolutely, multiple coats adds depth and protection.

[@FutureWarCultist]

My house doesn’t have a garage yet, relatively common in my area. Anyone use a pop up car port for detailing?

[@ChemicalGuys]

Hey! It is perfectly fine to detail in shaded area such as under a canopy.

[@gps0365]

If I have already ceramic coated the vehicle, how often can I apply the spray on wax?

[@ChemicalGuys]

Hi there! You can add wax every three or four months for added shine and protection.

[@pistons_n_pizza]

Love this video! What pad do you use?

[@ChemicalGuys]

Hi there! Use a Black Hex-Logic Pad to apply coatings.

[@pistons_n_pizza]

@@ChemicalGuys thank you

[@kennyk9427]

Where does extreme top coat fit in? Use in place of jet seal?

[@ChemicalGuys]

Hi there! Extreme Top Coat combines sealant and wax. Absolutely it can be used as a standalone layer of protection.

[@derricklovejoy]

So wait 3 hours after cermic coating but is there any wait time in between the glaze sealant and wax?

[@ChemicalGuys]

Hey Derrick! Allow at least 3 hours before applying coatings of glaze, sealant and/or wax.

[@derricklovejoy]

@@ChemicalGuys 3 hours in-between every step?

[@REB63]

How long do you have to wait between hydroslik ceramic and butter wet wax ?

[@ChemicalGuys]

Hey Ray! Allow at least 3 hours before applying additional coatings.

[@LostBoyLA]

Do you apply jet sealer on top of glazeworks or is it one or the other?

[@ChemicalGuys]

Hey! We recommend applying it in this order: Ceramic, Glaze, Sealant, Wax.

[@deadman1313666]

Two questions....i purchased the carbon force ceramic coating, will one bottle be enough for a full size chevy silverado 1500? Also, can you not apply the ceramic coating with an orbital polisher? Thanks guys!!!

[@deadman1313666]

Wait, scratch that second question 🤣should have just watched the whole video first😕

[@ChemicalGuys]

Hi there! Yes, one bottle of Carbon Force is plenty for one vehicle.

[@jimenbahen]

@chemicalguys
Hello, do I absolutely need ceramic coat, glaze, sealant and wax after polish?
Can I omit some of these products?
My paint is in 80% condition.
What do you think guys?

[@jimenbahen]

@chemicalguys also another question, might be redundant but do I need a towel for each application or can I combine towels. Would you wash your towels regular or don’t wash them at all? Thanks guys!!!

[@rachelhoyle5728]

Yes you can omit some of these steps. I think the point at the end was wax goes on last if you want to use a glaze and a sealant.

[@raulmartinez6185]

Can you wash the towel and still be able use it?

[@ChemicalGuys]

Absolutely!

[@raulmartinez6185]

@ChemicalGuys even the one used on the hood he said that if you don't mind throwing away. If you wash is it still good to use

[@Samedang]

How long does the ceramic coating last?

[@ChemicalGuys]

Hey Richard! Carbon Force protects up to 5 years.

[@TheOleg33]

I heard its best not to put anything on top of ceramic.

[@ChemicalGuys]

Hey! Adding glaze, sealant and/or wax on top of ceramic will enhance shine and durability.
