How To Properly Prep, Polish & Protect Your Paint! - Chemical Guys

- In today's video, Nick is going to determine whether the original paint of this 1998 Chevy S10 can be restored or not. Years of harsh elements and lack of paint protection have scorched and damaged the paintwork, leaving a dull finish. Watch as we walk through the steps to achieve the best finish. After washing the vehicle, decontaminate the pores of the paint using the appropriate clay bar before polishing the clear coat. Micro-abrasives refine scratches and swirls to reveal fresh clear coat, leaving a mirror gloss. After desired level of shine has been reached it is crucial to protect the paintwork from fallout by applying a ceramic coating, glaze, sealant and/or wax.

Hey nice video always use chemical guys products to get my job done yall do a good job keep it up guys
Glad to have you as part of the Chemical Guys family!

Great transformation Nick. Hydrocharge or hydroslick get my vote! After you coat it you're going to have to restore those headlights ;-)
What's up BigOldDog! Glad you enjoyed the video! Yes, the headlights need some love, stay tuned!!
- CG Nick
Excited to get my DA polisher this week! Amazing work my man🤙🏼
Hey Ryan! Thanks for watching!! Which polisher did you get?
- CG Nick
Chemical Guys just the Baurer HF option for now. It seems decent and I had a gift card.
A ceramic coating with the c9 would be awesome!
I"m doing research on buffing since I just bought a 1 yr old car that has a couple scratches in the paint. Like to try and buff them out and then get the swirl marks out of the paint and apply a sealant of some kind. Graphene? Ceramic? Which pads to get?
If it was mine, I would've started with V34 after claying with the heavy clay bar from the sound of that paint. It sounded so bad! I love your products, and have come to know what products will get me the results I'm aiming for. I'll tell you one thing, the V38 is the best finishing polish hands down. Nobody else can touch it by far.
Hey James! Thanks so much for tuning in and for being part of the Chemical Guys family!!
S10s are tbe business and that one is coming back to life right before our eyes keep up the good work CG 👍😎 #LEGACY
Hey! Stay tuned for more S10 videos!!
- CG Nick

Greetings from Southern California. Enjoy your detailing products!!
- CG Nick
Amazing, can't believe this is the same hood! Now do the headlights, they're crazy yellow.
Hey Phil! Thanks for checking out the video, we've got more in store for the S10. Stay tuned!!
- CG Nick
Generally I'd do a chemical decon first... clay will damage the paint. Disgusting clay will damage the paint even more. By removing contaminants with an iron remover, acid, whatever the product, you're limiting the damage to the paint that will come from claying. Limiting because it will still damage.
For those who don't know, any contact is bad contact. Clay with extreme lubrication will still add micro marring. With a 20 year old clearcoat, though you will be polishing and protecting it afterwards, you want to cause the least amount of damage so you have more clear to work with.
Nice video though guys!

made the mistake of taking my new civic type r in black thru a carwash, something I know not too do! well scratched the honda paint which is soft from the factory anyhow to all hell, spent 4 days on it and used chemical guys products to more than restore the finish to BETTER THAN NEW, IT LOOKED LIKE BLACK WET ICE!!!! convinced me to use nothing but, your products, I go with what works....also used the orbital machine that you guys recommend and it is sweet!! torx fx10 I think? I used to detail at a Cadillac dealership years ago and a lot has changed thanx to your products, at least for me, cant recommend enough......
can I use hydro slick on top of glaze, jetseal and caraumba wax?
What is the best soap to use when washing my car. Last week I clean slated it followed up with the mirror glaze then threw on the hydroslick wax?
Hey AJ! Thanks for tuning in. I recommend using Mr. Pink to lay down a thick layer of foam while enhancing gloss.

Thanks for the video maestros🤓
Glad you enjoyed the video!!
Great video! Can (or could) you go from the V36 step to applying Lava wax or something similar?
Hi Rich! Glad you enjoyed the video. As long as the desired level of shine/swirl removal has been achieved then you can move to waxing.
- CG Nick
@CG what kind of polish/wax do you guys recommend? I have a 2019 RAV4 in which I never used any clay. Do you guys recommend the VSS that you guys carry or your line of V34 through V38.
Hello! If the paint has light to moderate scratches or swirls then VSS would be a great one step solution. If the scratches are much deeper or have heavier amount of swirls then that's when the V-line might be a better option since you can go more aggressive if necessary.
Awesome videos like always. Although do have a question. A little confused on what to use after correction VSS, I have Jet Seal, Black Light, Butter Wet Wax and now Hydroslick Ceramic Coating Hyperwax.
Hi Gerardo! After polishing, apply HydroSlick as your base then it can be layered with Black Light Glaze, JetSeal and finish with Butter Wet Wax.
- CG Nick
@@ChemicalGuys Thanks for the quick response!
Nick man, wow look amazing!
Hey Mario! Thanks for checking out the video. Detailing makes a huge difference!!
- CG Nick
Can VSS be use instead of v36 and v38?
You guys should do a compelte video like this one, but with a rotary polisher instead
Hey there! Thanks for your suggestion!
- CG Nick
Do your compounds and polishes contain filles ??
I hope chemical guys products come to South Africa soon

I've got a Chemical Guys Clay Bar and Luber coming soon and can't wait to add this to my detailing arsenal. What step in the process of detailing do you recommend clay barring? It seems like you would want to clay bar, and then wash. Thanks so much. Love all your videos.
Hi Stephen! Thanks for checking out the video. After washing the vehicle is when you would want to use a clay bar especially if you are preparing to polish or apply ceramic, glaze, sealant and/or wax.
- CG Nick
Hey Stephen! We recommend claying the surface of your vehicle after washing your vehicle. Thanks for watching and happy detailing!

Hey Austin! Thanks for checking out today's video and for your awesome suggestion!
- CG Nick
I always check my channel daily to see if there's a new video!
@@ChemicalGuys Do you use an iron remover before or after you clay the surface?
Should the cutting stage (orange pad+v36) leave a mirror finish or will this stage leaving micro scratches with a haze??
Hey there! It depends on the condition of the paint and amount of passes used. In some cases you can finish with V36 but if a slight haze remains it will need additional passes using V38 Final Polish.
- CG Nick
Can u put black light polish on top of hydro charge or would I have to strip the hydro charge off
Hey Carlos! Yes, Black Light Glaze can be applied on top of HydroCharge.
- CG Nick
Do you or your santa ana location provide detailing services as well oe just products? Im too scared to touch the oaint of my neglected black 20 year old car with heavy swirl marks.
Hi Danh! We don't provide detailing services but rather the right products and techniques.
I think paint correction and ceramic coating on my black 22 tesla X plaid would make a great video
🤩

Should I clay bar before or after I use the water spot remover?
Hey! We recommend clay baring before applying Heavy Duty Water Spot Remover Gel. Thanks for watching and happy detailing!
I have a black car that has yellow paint on it from the road, what can I use to get rid of it?
Hi Deron! If it was recent, you can use the natural cleaning oils of Butter Wet Wax to remove it. It may still require a clay bar treatment to thoroughly decontaminate the paintwork. If the spots still remain,a compound/polish will be necessary.
- CG Nick
This is bizarre. I have an ‘09 Colorado in the same color that I did this exact process to over Christmas. My results were amazing!
What's up OCDetailer! Strange coincidence but we're so glad to hear you're enjoying your detailing products!

Can you guys do a 3rd gen tacoma? I'm to scared to use a machine on my taco it has so many uneven surfaces
What's up David! Thanks for your suggestion, we'll get started on a video breaking down how to polish body lines and curves. A DA polisher would be good for vehicles with uneven panels.
- CG Nick
You should do a video on the trucks headlights restoring them
Hey Luis! Agreed, stay tuned for more videos!!
- CG Nick
How much pressure should you use when using a clay bar
Hi Ben! When using a clay bar apply the weight of your hand and just a little bit more pressure to thoroughly extract contaminants but avoiding marring.
- CG Nick
Hello Chemical
Two questions:
1 Can I use a clay mitt and clay bar to do this job or you prefer only one? Which one is best?
2- Is Iron removers and Tart removers needed in this process? Why?
Hey Humberto! You can use a clay bar, block or mitt for this process but my preference is the clay bar which will conform to any shape of the vehicle. Chemical decontamination can be used before using a clay bar for stubborn grime.
- CG Nick
@@ChemicalGuys Thanks my friend!!👍🏽😎
@@ChemicalGuys I take a screenshot of your advice so I have it handy. Thanks
What’s the differences between like the v36 and stuff like that vs. the scratch and swirl remover
Hi Tristan! VSS contains more abrasives and diminishes into a fine polish making it an all in one product whereas V36 is a cutting polish that is intended to be used in a sequence of abrasives for paint correction.
- CG Nick
Chemical Guys ok thank you, I love y’all’s chemicals though I’m a enthusiast myself and starting a mobile auto detailing business, y’all are about all I use 😂
Can you you car wash soap as a lubricant?
Can't wait to give my car the full treatment... TY #ChemicalGuys
Hey Jamie! Enjoy your detailing products, let us know how it turns out!
- CG Nick
why dont you use your clap disk?
QUESTION : If car has a lot of scratches and some are quite deep so you need to paint them..but you also are planning to do full paint correction.. should we:
1. We first sort those deep scratches (preparation,sanding, painting, polishing), then do the full paint correction of whole car...
2. We do painting of deep scratches mid way of full paint correction... (after wash...iron and tar decontamination and clay bar decontamination)
3. We do all the steps of paint correction and before applying ceramic coating we focus on sorting those big deep scratches
Do you wash the vehicle before clay barring?
Hey there! Yes, start with a car wash to remove the heavier, loose debris before performing a clay bar treatment.
- CG Nick
im in oxnard/LA. you guys want to a demo on my mercedes? its silver metallic and 16 years old
Anyone have a good time estimate how long doing this to a whole car would take? Trying to do my moms truck and wanna give myself enough time. I’m assuming roughly 3 hours?
Hey Nick! A full detail can range from a few hours up to 8 hours and sometimes even longer depending on the condition of the vehicle as well as services performed.
Can we see the other side of the hood done by a Rotary and finish the entire truck with a ceramic, glaze, sealant and wax process please ?
Hey Jc! We'll get some rotary tutorials in the works!
- CG Nick
Where do you want me to send the cowl hood?
How does one do mobile detailing in a smart car? Just wondering lol
Have to squeeze everything in for a sedan imagine a smart car LOL. Im trying to offer my services but I dont have generator or watertank so im hoping clients can either drop off their car or i can use their stuff but I offer cheaper price. Trying to start off atleast ya know.
Can you use this on gloss black trim?
Hi there! You can clay and polish any surface that is gloss painted, shiny or clear.
@@ChemicalGuys thanks
What chemical would you use to strip off any wax that has Been applied on the paint
Hey there! Check out Clean Slate to wash away old layers of glaze, sealant and wax.
- CG Nick
Chemical Guys okay and thank you, one more thing I am a local detailer in my area and I provide clay bar in my service, now would I have to always strip off anything if they have or have not used waxes, etc. ?
In most cases it would be best to remove old layers before applying new ones unless it is a routine detail where wax was recently applied.
Acetone, try it on a spot before u continue

Happy detailing!!

Can you tell me from Step #1 how to do all the steps. I'm confused. So many videos have different methods. I'm looking at the steps before panel Prep which is compound , them IPA, then Wax / Sealant
Hi Don! Check out this video for tips on how to prepare for polishing.
th-cam.com/video/IPAb4xXQ6NE/w-d-xo.html
@@ChemicalGuys awesome video. Just watched. I found out I've been doing the bucket guard wrong all this time. I was putting the guard in then filling water. My only question is Iron Remover. I see you never used it. Is that because you used the clean slate as a strip wash. Also you used Clean slate in the bucket and Foam Cannon correct.
That hood is so nasty, the clay bar sounds like sandpaper!😲
Hey there! This truck definitely needed some attention. Stay tuned for more content!!

What do I do with bird poop etching that ate the clear coat really bad?
Hey! You may still be able to compound and polish the clear coat to refine the finish. Check out this video.
- CG Nick
th-cam.com/video/fhIM1a8oB_0/w-d-xo.html
Can you clay with foam? Instead of lub
Yes. Many of the businesses that sell clay bars also sell detail sprays so they encourage you to use the sprays. I use car wash soap to clay customers' cars and it works just as well although it may cause the clay bar to degrade quicker. I've had good luck with mothers speed clay 2.0, so check that out if you want claying to be easier.
Can you use jet seal, and then hydro slick? Please help
Hey Floyd! For the longest lasting bond it is recommend to apply HydroSlick then JetSeal.
- CG Nick
Awesome thank you nick, was looking on the website to purchase some kits, want to start detailing my dodge charger, been watching tons of video on how it's! By the way love the videos
Appreciate the amazing feedback! Happy detailing!!
- CG Nick
Which polishing machine is that
Hey Brian! Check out the TORQ15DA.
www.chemicalguys.com/torq15da-15mm-long-throw-random-orbital-polisher/BUF505.html
So after claying do you have to wash the car again
Hey! It isn't necessary to wash the vehicle again, simply wipe away spent product.
S10 love here. I have an original 98SS. B4U code bought brand new and only has 43k on it.
One question? What speed did you set your polisher at?
Hey! That's an awesome truck!! When using a DA or random orbital polisher, use the highest speed setting to diminish the compound/polish.

Hi Guys i have a brand New Ford Ranger wildtrak 32.. Orange Color i want to make a wax the car only for protection.. What you perfer me? If i clay the car after i was the car and wax it is oky?
Hi Andreas! Yes, it is fine to apply wax after washing and claying the vehicle. I recommend using Cherry Wet Wax to enhance the color of your Ranger.

How long does it take to ceramic coat a car from start to finish
Hi Yuri! Depending on the condition and size of the vehicle, the whole process can take 4 to 8 hours. The ceramic coating application is very quick, maybe an hour.
- CG Nick
@@ChemicalGuys ok thanks
Love your products I ordered 1000 Dollars worth of your products for my detailing business, I need to shout your products out on my future youtube channel
Hey Rogelio! Thanks so much for being part of the Chemical Guys family, enjoy your detailing products!!

@@ChemicalGuys im loving it alot the torq buffing kit is amazing if there's any other products you guys have that you recommend I get I will more than likely purchase it
How do you Polish metallic page
Hey Daniel! Use the same process as demonstrated in the video for polishing all gloss paint finishes.
The runoff from the claying almost makes it look like your wet sanding.
Exactly, that's how contaminated the paint was!
- CG Nick
Is polishing necessary?
Hi there! Polishing is recommended before applying coatings to remove swirl marks and scratches.
When are they going to do another video on your truck ... do the head lights too
Hey Marissa! Very soon, the headlights really needed some attention. Stay tuned!!
- CG Nick
My dads truck is somehow not faded yet after never being in a garage just needs a paint correction from swirl marks.
Hey Edgar! A paint correction and routine waxing will keep it looking its best for as long as possible.

Okay mr joker profile pic
Unless it's just me why is that car two different colors down the middle
Hey James! That is the transformation from non-clayed and polished to properly decontaminated and paint corrected. A HUGE difference.
- CG Nick
james Hurley I’m not sure what you seen, but there’s no car in this video dude
With a car in such a bad condition, I really dont understand why you wouldnt just use a degreaser and a fallout/tar remover in the washing step, and skip half of this obnoxious rubbing with the claybar.
Use degreaser and then the claybar and you get excellent results.
Nice video
Thanks for watching Russ!
- CG Nick
What is the speed of the torq when polishing
When polishing with the TORQ we use the highest speed setting.
I think you have to give a call to your paintless dent repair guy.
That’s was a rough clay that Nick
Hi Anthony! Yes, the truck desperately needed a clay bar treatment.
- CG Nick
I’m kinda lost what’s the difference between a one step correction and a 2 step?
Hey Joshua! When we say one step or multiple step paint correction, it is only referring to the number of compounds or polishes used. Wash, clay and coatings are separate steps.
- CG Nick
Chemical Guys Now I understand it thank you nick !

Why not a clay block?
Hi Alberto! Just preference, the clay bar is easy to shape and contours to the vehicle. A clay block would have worked just as well, covering more surface area.

Why not wet sand the car instead of clay?
Dad?
Why a clay bar and not a clay mitt?
Hey Mistah Pahkah! Just preference, a clay mitt would have worked fine as well. I like the traditional clay bar because it can be shaped to fit into any crevice.
