    What I like about Larry is he's not a snake oil salesmen like some of these other guys. He DOES have his own line of products, mentions them, but doesn't tell you that you NEED them to be successful. He just loves detailing and loves sharing and teaching.

    I just want to thank you. I bought my son a 1999 Lexus es300 one owner for his first car. I literally spent hours watching your videos because your not short winded, your in depth and I appreciated that. I was able to bring back the paint to the point you could see the original pearl sparkly shin. Along with your video on the old 911 Porsche that was going to a museum and a link to buy the Loew Cornell art painting pen I fixed more paint imperfections not to mention all your videos on interior cleanup. You have helped me make one high school Millennial happy with his first car even though it is 20 years old. I really appreciated men like you who make TH-cam videos. You're a master at what you do, I'm sure you already know this. Thank you!

    Thank you very much to Larry for making this happen, and Kevin for choosing to share this information along side Larry. I would expect to pay for this type of information, and this series has greatly increased my understanding of my work. I recently finished a paint correction in 1-step, with better results than I’ve ever gotten 2-step correcting cars in the past. It’s great peace of mind knowing that your work will last for years, and that you aren’t leaving a customer with subsurface defects that may not show themselves immediately. The time, money, and effort put into these courses is easy to see, and greatly appreciated. Once again, I can’t thank you guys enough!

    This summer I'm gonna polish my black ford focus, just built a wooden garage with tarps as the roof and walls so I can polish without dust and stuff getting on it. I say summer because I want to watch all of the videos in this series before I go at it. It's gonna be my first time polishing anything, but i think if I buy the right tools and do all my research (watch all your videos) I should come out on top. Thank you for uploading this series, highly appreciated 🖒

    As an engineer I can really appreciate the logic and science that you guys apply in this craft. Often times in the craft realm people just try things or do them out of habit/tradition with no reason as to why. Kudos.
    Maybe I missed this in the video, but what causes the buff haze? I think that’s really important to know for two reasons. 1: you want to prevent it when you polish in the first place. 2: if you’re going to try and correct the haze, you of course don’t want to make it worse.

    Larry. Please try to stop worrying about the video length lol. I rarely even wash my car (sorry), and I certainly don’t detail, BUT I watch your entire video every time. It doesn’t matter the length. It’s knowledge being passed on about an interesting topic with so many things to discover. I may not properly care for my car atm (I will with my next one), but this information is valuable to so many people. The length is fine. Even if it’s an hour, I’ll still stay glued to the screen just listening and learning. It’s interesting stuff. So again, the length of your videos is ALWAYS completely fine. You’re good. Have a great weekend:)

Rotary swirls and holograms are easy to minimise to an ultra fine level or never cause. Residue extraction system whilst polishing will change the whole game but im not smart enough to invent it but i have a few ideas. Kevin is the guy who could.

    This series is awesome. Nothing like understanding the technical stuff so you can make educated decisions. One question on blowing the pads, can you use canned compressed air? Are there any other alternatives to clean the pads while working on the car? If not, how do you gauge how many pads you'll need for the job, or when to switch the pad? Thanks for sharing your knowledge!

    One thing that I don't ever here detailers mention is frequency. Seeing that clear coats and paints are only so thick, after X number of polishes (it may be 100, I don't know) you are going to be getting into the metal. What do you recommend for how often per year, lifetime of vehicle, etc for buffing/compounding? Thanks Larry!

    Remember Larry that the clear coat is the millage that your working. Not the paint the paint if you buffed compounded etc would be down to the primer etc so as a note make sure to reference the area which your compunding as top coat , or clearcoat instead of paint. You'll make the industry take note of such. As well as DIY doers an such.

    @ThePKefal 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    This is great content, thank you much! So you're saying you can do the whole car with one pad? Or do you still do like ~1 pad per panel, so about 4 for the whole car? I guess the pad blowing kinda resets the pad and the wetting agent helps bring whatever is absorbed out again and work with it (plus tiny dots of extra when needed).

    • @AMMO-NYC
      @AMMO-NYC  5 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      It's a case per case basis. some vehicles you can use the same pad all the way around, others will need multiple of the same pad. It all depends on the variables and how the paint is reacting. Very important to "read the paint" during a correction. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching!
