Joey, that's why I have my car looking good. you touch me how to detail like a pro. Not like u but I'm getting there. Joey have a good one. take care n stay safe. God bless
I really appreciate these videos. However, can we see a video that shows how to polish more than just the hood? For example, how do you polish the roof or the tricky corners of panels? A flat surface is easy, but what about those harder to reach places? Thanks!
Im trying to start my own type of car detailing business. Your videos are helping me learn a lot of new things which is very nice. I have supplies but I don’t know how to start. Do you guys have any tips?
I saw you ran buffer at 1 at beginning. What speed did you run after that for higher speeds? When using V36 orange pad? Then when switching white pad v38 what speed was used on buffer? Do you use any pressure with V36 orange pad with buffer? What about V38 white pad any pressure?
Hi David! When using a dual action polisher, spread product using the lowest speed setting then use speed setting 5 or 6 to break down compound and polish until it turns clear.
Hey! Great video. I picked up my kit today and hoping to work on my wife’s car early next week. Quick question, how do you define good, moderate and bad paint?
Hey Alex! Thanks for watching. A vehicle with none or very light swirls would be considered good, light to moderate is where most daily driven vehicles are and heavy or deep scratches and oxidation would be in bad shape.
Hey! Every vehicle is which means not all paint corrections will be the same however it is normal for it to take 4 to 8 hours to correct moderate imperfections.
When would you choose lets say a V36 V38 combo versus a C4 P4 situation? I'm assuming it depends on the condition of the vehicle. The condition of the vehicle im working with is a 2006 chevy silverado, and after inspecting it, its mostly light - moderate scratches and swirls from incorrect washes etc. I also have VSS, but not too sure which combo would work best
Hi Mike! Every vehicle is different and thus their polishing needs will vary. Test your combinations in a small inconspicuous area to determine which is the best option.
every car has different hardness of clear coat so always good to do a test spot v34 with and orange pad should do the work and finish with v38 with soft pad white
I accidentally scratched my paint with my tailights when removing them. It looks pretty deep. Does that mean I have to use v32 and finish off with v38?
Hello! It may be necessary to use the V-Line for a multi-step correction. Start the least aggressive approach being V36 before jumping straight into V32.
Hey Phil! Depending on how frequently the pads will be used, they may need to be washed after every use. Check out Polishing Pad Cleaner to release spent product and residue from the pad. Air dry them to keep them fresh for the next job. www.chemicalguys.com/foam-and-wool-polishing-pad-cleaner/foam-wool-pad-cleaner.html?gtmListValue=Internal%20Search
Hi there! Machine polishing is an effective method of removing stains in paintwork. Try using an Orange Hex-Logic Pad with C4 Clear Cut Correction Compound.
It's 100⁰ in NC. I have an unconditional garage to stay out of direct sun. Can I do compounding and polishing in shade of garage? What is the limit for safe surface temp to keep from doing a bad job?
is there’s an email that we can send pictures to get guidance on which product would work best for a specific case especially when it already have ceramic coating applied?
Hi CG- I have a 2018 Volvo XC60 T8 with onyx metallic paint. Even with mudguars front & rear, my tires kick up road grime and leave the sides & rear dirty and water spotted. What product(s) in your lineup would help eliminate this? Help! Help!

Hey! Use a White Hex-Logic Pad with V38 to properly diminish the product. The Blue Hex-Logic Pad is a finishing pad used for applying product such as glaze, sealant and wax.

how much time would it take to do the whole car with the v36 and v38? also how many passes do you do (8 horizontal, 8 vertical?) thanks!
Hey! Every vehicle is which means not all paint corrections will be the same however it is normal for it to take 4 to 8 hours to correct moderate imperfections.
Thank you guys nice explaining about the clay!!
Glad it was helpful!

Now this is how a proper guide should look like! Infinite times better than that motorcicle washing video, this was really nicely done.
Great job! 👍
Thanks for tuning in!
Very good vid 👌🏾 👍🏼, but can i know how much time does it take for the whole vehicle to be done?
Hey! Thanks for tuning in. Polishing can take 4 to 8 hours depending on the condition of the paint.
I have a 2021 Kia Sportage and have a stain in the paint on the hood. I don't know what it is but what would recommend to remove this stain
Hi there! Machine polishing is an effective method of removing stains in paintwork. Try using an Orange Hex-Logic Pad with C4 Clear Cut Correction Compound.
It's 100⁰ in NC. I have an unconditional garage to stay out of direct sun. Can I do compounding and polishing in shade of garage? What is the limit for safe surface temp to keep from doing a bad job?
Hey Joshua! Try to work in a shaded area or in the early morning and evening hours when the surface of the vehicle is cool to the touch.
That beat during cutting tho!
😃😃
Should you tape off a pinstripe or is it ok to go over with a buffer and compound?
Hey Travis! In most cases it is best to mask off pinstripes to prevent burning through paint or staining and peeling vinyl stripes.
How much pressure would you say was applied to tool while using the V36.
Hey! Use the weight of the machine plus a little pressure and listen for the tone of the machine to change.
is there’s an email that we can send pictures to get guidance on which product would work best for a specific case especially when it already have ceramic coating applied?
Hey! Yes, check out this link.

@@ChemicalGuys Thank you, but looking for something to prevent road grime and dirt from sticking to my car after washing it.
AWESOME PRODUCTS!
Glad to have you as part of the Chemical Guys family!!
Thanks Guys!! Helped me a lot !
Glad it helped!
I have small brown spots on the pearl white hood of my car. I believe it’s rail dust. Will clay bar do the trick? Or do I have to combine with polish?
Hey! Yes, try using a Medium Duty Clay Bar and Clay Luber to extract embedded contaminants.
You should also try an iron remover
Excellent job joey 👏
😃😃
What speed to you recommend for cutting & polishing
Hi Gilbert! When using a TORQ 15DA use speed setting 5 or 6 for compound and polish.
Is there a difference between using V38 on a blue pad vs. a white pad?
Hey! Use a White Hex-Logic Pad with V38 to properly diminish the product. The Blue Hex-Logic Pad is a finishing pad used for applying product such as glaze, sealant and wax.
Can you show us how you would clean a car tht has paint in the interior and leather seat??
Great suggestion!
can this be used on a vehicle with a ceramic coating?
Hi there! Machine polishing will actually remove the ceramic coating.
Is this the actual process for DEEP scratches? I thought there would be sanding involved.
Hey! If the scratches can be felt with your fingernail it may require sanding before compound and polish.
How long do you have to polish on one panel to get those kind of results
Hi there! Usually 3 or 4 passes or until the compound/polish turns clear.
@@ChemicalGuys how about for really deep scratches what would you recommend
I used vss with the orange pad and didnt really see much improvement on the car wash swirls and light scratches. Should i go to a yellow pad?
Hi there! Try using more abrasives such as V34 Hybrid Compound.
@@ChemicalGuys how does that compare to c4?
Use C4 then the P4 to finish?
Matt
Correct
That's right!!
Why don't you wash the car before using the claybar? What is the reason to claybar first then wash the car?
Hi Johnny! The vehicle was washed before clay bar and polish.
Very cool!
Glad you enjoyed the video!
Yes indeed
🤣
I feel that face you're making, just locked in.
Happy detailing!
Will this work on gelcoat
Absolutely!
Pause.. 😂so Many times... dats crazy..he said top it off?? Polish it up?? Wow... he went in
What speed did he go up to after starting on one and spreading the polish out
Hey Kevin! When using a TORQ 15DA, work compound/polish on speed setting 5-6.
Can I use with out buffer?
Hi Yolanda! It is possible to polish by hand using V36 Cutting Polish.
@@ChemicalGuys Am I able to use all of these different polishes by hand?
Can you also use that on motorcycles
Absolutely! Happy detailing!!
Great job 👏🏻
Glad you enjoyed the video!

I’ve always had trouble kneading clay bars with nitrile gloves on. It always sticks too much to the gloves and easily rips them.
Hey! Try spraying your gloves with Clay Luber to prevent the bar from sticking.
Mine desperately needs it

Maybe doing a testspot at first was better.
