Is it possible to spread this without a polisher tool? Would one simply have to cope with their arm falling off at some point, or is the approach entirely useless if one doesn’t have a polisher?
As always, your instructional videos are spot on! I always enjoy them. Thanks for all you do making your videos and I look forward to your next one.
Thanks Joseph, I appreciate the positive feedback!
Pan, as always thank you for the videos. You explain this knowledge to us in such an organize way, helping me feel more confident in detailing.
You can do it!
Awesome!! I have a new mustang Mach e and it has these piano black areas. Piano black looks sweet but it scratches SO easy. Plus there is a key pad and the button to open the door behind the pillar. So it is a super high touch area! I literally went to the garage and followed your tutorial and it fixed all the swarls it's amazing! Thank you! Now I just have to wait for the fresh ceramic coating to cure. Also I'm using Avalon King ceramic coating that I picked up after watching your channel. It's awesome. Hope that it helps reduce future scratching a bit. Thanks so much Pan!
FYI ceramic coatings don't prevent scratches. That's not what they're designed to do. Only PPF can protect the paint against scratches. Ceramic coatings are meant to add chemical resistance, UV protection, gloss, slickness, hydrophobics, long term durability and self-cleaning properties.
This is such a great example of quickly turning horrible into perfect! I just did this a few months ago. It's magic!!
👍🏻
My first time polish ever.. done 😊 Big thanks to Pan! Think I never saw as much videos from one person but it was worth it!
Awesome! Thank you! Enjoy applying the ceramic coating!
Pan, I cannot believe it! I was JUST looking up how to polish B pillars and the notification for your video popped up😊
Thanks for your professional explanation and making detailing my car more fun!
You are so welcome!
Great info as always. 👍🏽
What would suggest for scratches on the metallic chrome at the top of the windows ?
Great short video Pan! Always nice to get my morning fix of PTO🙌🏼
Let's go! :)
Yes! On my to do list as soon as I get the equipment. My new car came from the dealership with horrible swirling in the gloss black B pillars.
👍🏻
Thank you Pan, definitely one of my to do jobs in spring.
There you go! :)
Thank You for a thorough demo of this process! It's the same way that I do it!
Merry Christmas, Pan 🎄😃
Same to you!
Always great information. thank you!
Thanks for watching!
Great video my bru. These piano gloss sections are always the roughest to look at because the owners see them every single time they get in the vehicle. I haven't tried the Rupes pads. Will have to give it a go. Epic tips as always sir.
Thanks!
These quick how to videos are excellent. Maybe a quick on on engine cleaning...lots to think about! Thanks and Merry Christmas!

PAN! You are such an inspiration to me I made a video explaining how you helped me out so much. Thank you!
Thanks I appreciate it! Merry Xmas
Great video, I have done this to my 2 cars ten I followed up with Carpro Dlux coating.
Thanks Paul!
Very useful video as always, Pan. These piano black panels are on so many cars, and most look awful after just a couple of years. Even with the safest of washing/drying methods, they still get beat up over time. My Challenger's trunk panel has this, and need to be sooo careful with it. I'll hit it with Novus #1 on occasion to give it a fighting chance.
Thanks for the feedback Ken!
And another one, just before Christmas. Thanks Pan! Have a Merry Christmas
Thanks Earl! Merry Xmas!
I cant tell you how timely this is lol i just got a new car and about to put protection on it but have the same swirls on the black pillars but didnt know how to exactly go about it and u just post this lol thank you pan and also as an idea to post more specific videos like these to talk more in detail of the situation like shampooing carpets or extract dirt from carpets, how to clean headliners, headlight restoration, etc. but thank you again pan 🙂
Awesome! I read your mind Joshua! 🤪
That paint looks amazing and glossy after the polishing! I've not tried this polish yet, im waiting on optimum hyper polish to come in. Thank you for another great video Pan! Happy Holidays and stay warm
Sounds nice! Personally i went with polish from CarPro, which ithink been around on Pan's channel before. Great thing bout those was they leave basically zero residue product & great result. Good luck with the Optimum stuff! 🙂
Thanks Sam! Happy holidays!
@@tredfxman thank you and same to you. Carpro is a staple in the industry. I like the optimum having no hydrocarbons and it should work well with the mckees n 914

You sure can!

My man Pan!! the organizer, love your videos , this is one more thing for me to do to my car, always wonder what could be done about those panels now I know, Have a wonderful and safe Holidays to you and your family, PEACE ...
Thanks Elaine! Happy holidays!
I really appreciate for teaching Mr Pan 🇮🇷
Thanks!
Thank you for teaching your way !
I would suggest people get some PPF and wrap it to protect it from scratches,.It would last between 1-3 years and It depends on the quality of PPF.
Amazing video as always Pan 👍🏼
Thanks a ton!
Nice turnaround! I need to clean up the pillars on my truck. Hopefully they'll come out looking like those. I have some Extreme Solutions polishes that I'll have to use.
Thanks for watching!
Awesome video as always! Any suggestions on how to detail your black window trim on the bottom of the window which tends to look bad and spotty after a few years? Could be because of degreaser when I've been lazy and took the car to the automated carwasher :) any way to solve or need to get new ones?
Any tire shine or trim restorer will make it brand new
Great video sir and a pro in your descriptions and story telling
🙌🏻👍🏻
Another good clip Pan; have black pillars on both my 23 Taco and wife’s 24 Highlander; will implement this technique on both!!
Thanks! Yeah good looking pillars really help to complete the overall detailed look of a car.
Thanks for the video pan sonex products are really good I use them all the time
Thanks for watching Dave!
Very good job Pan! I switched over to Rupes pneumatic air polishers with their pads....great results in less time.
Thanks Donald! I don't have an air compressor so I don't have that opportunity.
@@PanTheOrganizer Business changing for sure. You definitely need to look into it. Matt over at Obsessed Garage has the perfect setup ideas.
Thank you for the tutorial.👍🏻 id love to see a trim coating video. I always have a hard time with getting dressings on paint. I’m not sure of the order of application. Paint then trims or vise-versa. Thanks again.
You can coat the trim at the same time as you’re coating the paint, assuming the specific coating you are using goes on paint and trim.
You can do all the paintwork, and then go around the car and do all the plastic trim.
Simple and effective thanks
You're welcome
Anyone else smashing like before even watching the video cause Pan is the man and you know it's gonna be quality?
Heheh I love the unconditional support! :)
I like these simple task oriented videos
Thanks! I appreciate the feedback!
Everytime I watch your polishing videos, I feel like jumping on one two😅😂awesome stuff Pan👌
:)
Great Video Pan!!💪👍
Thanks Pat!
I sit back relax and learn then I used it .. thx pan
🙌🏻
I have a new Denali Ultimate with the Vador Chrome and its got some scratches of the chrome grill (but its really a plastic chrome). Would you suggest this method on that material as well? Thanks and great channel by the way! Lots of really good info!

Love all your video very helpful tip and advice 👍
Thanks Masum!
Hi Pan, what would you recommend to spray on Led Headlights to keep the snow off, I just switched to Led's from Hid's on my 4x4 pickup and it looks like a huge mistake, as the snow is sticking to the Headlights and not melting. Thank You and Merry Christmas!!
Another great video pan! Is their anyway you could make a video on the best steamers for car detailers & another on how to clean and protect hard & soft truck bed covers for us guys with trucks.
Thanks Quentin!
Great result!
Thanks!
hi pan, wishing you and your family a merry Christmas and a happy new year, and hope to see and meet you at some point in the UK 👍
Thanks Steve! Merry Christmas to you and your loved ones as well!
Since those pillars are relatively small, for extra protection, apply PPF then a ceramic coating. Scratch free for a long time. 👍🏼
But the ppf will scratch easier
@@dannymarin6307 Yeah but it can be peeled off.
@@jackmccourt6180 true
New to this....What's PPF?
@@Chaos2788 Paint protection film
Pan! Not related to this video but, Do you recommend getting ceramic coating for the newly leased black car?? I got my first ever new car and I want to keep this clean and shine look while I’m riding it. I got a quote from local guy at 600, but I couldn’t decide if it is worth. Should spray coating type products and hand wash be enough for leased car?
Good one. Merry Christmas!
Thanks Kim! Happy holidays!
excellente vidéo mon cher Pan, c'est vrai que les montants de portes de rayent facilement (la voiture est également pleine de swirl). J'utilise la mini polisseuse SPTA sans fil 12v avec des pad de 1 ou 2 Inch qui donne d'excellent résultat. J'utilise la Dremel pour des pads ronds, coniques pour les calandres, les sigles de marque et modèle, car désigler est trop risqué. Le polish SONAX est TOP. Merci pour ce format qui permet de faire un focus sur cette partie d'entretien. 👍
Merci!
Thanks Pan
Great video Pan! Just one quick follow up. I have a BMW x5 with m sport pro pack and the black window gloss is gone grayish (looks to be discoloured from UV). I was considering getting those parts wrapped for permanent black gloss but would this method also restore the colour as well as remove scratches? Big hello from Ireland 🇮🇪

@@PanTheOrganizer TH-cam I ask a question on how to do something one day and then boom there’s pan the organizer 🫡
I had black matt finish on the pillars of my 2011 Toyota Camry . Mistakenly sprayed 303 Protectant and didn't wipe off . Dried to a white haze that took an effort to get off . I believe I sprayed rubbing alcohol and used a Mr. Clean magic eraser , all purpose . Then multiple coats of Meguiars back to black .
Hi Pan. Great video. Do you have a method to do this on a the same surface for the interior and doing it by hand without any machines?
Same method applies for interior piano black plastics. You can do this by hand but you’ll need way more elbow grease.
Great video!
Thanks Fernando!
Pan, thanks again as always. I was just wondering how to do this properly. Great content 👌 Do you have a video on rock ship repair on paint? Thanks for sharing your knowledge and passion 👍
Rock chip.....not rock ship....haha
Thanks Kevin! I don't do stone chip repairs so I don't have any tutorials on that topic unfortunately. I leave that work to paint experts.
Very nice. I learn so much from your channel!
Thanks! I appreciate it. What’s your favourite video on my channel so far?
@@PanTheOrganizer So far your detailing 101 paint polishing because that is the part I’m very nervous to begin working on.
I used the same Flex PXE-80 with a 2" APS backing plate and a Rupes 2" yellow foam pad with Sonax Perfect Finish. I also have the APS 3: Backing plate for my Flex PXE-80 which is a higher quality and less vibration that the stock Flex 3" Backing Plate. I love Sonax Perfect Finish, but a lot of detailers prefer the Koch Chemie M3/02 Micro Cut polish and the Koch Kemie 3" Purple Foam pad. The APS Backing Plates and extensions for the Flex PXE-80 are really nice to use.
Sounds great!
Love your vids.
Do your have any tip for removing stain from BMW shadow line trim.
Thanks.
A light hand polish usually does the trick. Of course I can't see your specific issue, but you can start with that.
Can I use a regular sized Torq dual action polisher I got from Chem guys if I can find a 3 inch pad for it. Thanks for your help. Great channel.
Great information & video. Liking that flex polisher, You can tell by the motor there's very little if any bog on that. "German quality" ✅ Merry Christmas and have a good New Year pan! 🎄👍🇨🇦
All my Flex polishers are beasts for sure! Built like tanks.

I have a few vehicles with the gloss black pillars and my most recent addition has some noticeable swirls and scratches. I was searching “how to remove scratches from gloss black plastic” and I ended up here. Keep up the good work! You explaining exactly what you use and showing the products- it helps me wade through all the detailing offerings and take the best approach to get it done👍🏻👍🏻 thank you for sharing the knowledge
the PXE 80 is a fantastic piece of kit. wouldnt want to be without mine
I agree!
@@PanTheOrganizer I'm hoping you get the flexi-shaft kit which Flex have recently launched.... I reckon it will add a big extra dimension to its already impressive abilities
Great job. How would you go about doing a matte black pillers.
Thank you
You never polish matte black surfaces. That would make them glossy.
Hey Pan, first off thank you for the awesome and informative content. Second off, before I found your channel recently, I foolishly used some new, unwashed and dry "polish/wax remover" towels after a wash to dry my brand new car that has no base ceramic/wax coat.
I feel silly for this and I'm worried I may have scratched the paint. I basically let the towel "glide" over the body but noticed there was a lot of friction (duh) because there was no lubrication from a wax or coating. Am I blowing this out of proportion? Haven't had a chance to thoroughly inspect the paint yet but there aren't any swirls/scratches that have stuck out to me. Hoping this one improper dry job didn't hurt my new car too much during its first wash. 😬
I've since taken your recommendation to buy some of the Gauntlet dry towels and taking your advice for my next wash.
If you are towel drying a vehicle, make sure to use a quality microfiber drying towel like in my drying towels video here: th-cam.com/video/079H_dpxlUo/w-d-xo.html
And always use a drying aid when towel drying. It's like a detail spray and it will add lubrication to the surface and act as a buffer between the towel and the paint, so you don't scratch or mar the paint when hand drying. Here is a video I made on good drying aids: th-cam.com/video/NOTNed04xYE/w-d-xo.html
Ideally though, you would protect your paint as quickly as possible by applying your choice of a wax, paint sealant or ceramic coating. It will not only protect your paint long term, but also increase gloss and slickness and make the vehicle easier to wash during your maintenance washes.
It really makes a big difference. Good job.
Im getting my windows tinted. In Ontario the side fronts legally cant be lower than 70% tint. Have you ever had problems with your tint with authorities in QC?
As long as you don't go overboard with limo like tints, they don't bother you. They have to be able to clearly see you in the front cabin through your windows.
I seriously was going to ask you to do a video on this trim. My wife and I both have brand new vehicles with this piano glass and I’m very concerned about the swirls that are possible. Thank you for the video.
Glad it was helpful!
I got some light scratches in the piano-black plastic on the drivers side B pilar on BMW 530i (G30) after opening the drivers door a little to much in the wrong place. after trying to search online for a solution and not finding anything useful, I gambled on using some Autoglym Super resin polish and a foam applicator and microfibre towel.. Didn't dare use a machine, but I managed to remove almost all the scratches/marks by hand.. But it sure would have been good to have had this video then..
first time saw this so mean we can fix this , nice , do you have anything that mostly in the SUV trunk plastic panels on the sides get scratch , any idea how we can fix that ... please guide or make a video if you can
Another valuable video, thank you. Please let us know which black nitrile gloves you’re using, a link for the US would be appreciated.
Nitrile gloves are super hard to source (like many items during covid) but the ones I usually want are these ones: amzn.to/32rfkzM
Pan, do u have tips on winter car washing? For us in Toronto winter, we shut off the water hose outside to prevent the water pipe cracking.
So no water to use outdoor. And u had advise not to go automatic car wash, then what option do we have?
Great video. I see white lines on the piano glossy pillar, is it really deep and is it possible to repair with this method?
Hard to say without seeing the issue in person. Perhaps the scratches are too deep and you reached the primer. If that's the case, there's nothing that can be done other than have the pillars repainted.
Thank You Pan. Santa is bringing me some detailing goodies so I am excited. Lol, it's mostly re-stock as my son and I are low on our favorites. Every time I walk up to one of our cars that has this type of trim in similar condition I say to myself, '"Man I need to fix that". With my wife being in the Industry, I'm thinking I will correct them and have her guy put PPF over them. Need her to ask the question will the PPF interfere with the touch lock (Keyless) (which we don't use) on the one car that has it.
I don't use PPF so I'm not sure about that. You would have to ask your PPF installer.
Merci pour tes video sa améliore mon experiences
Merci Alex! Comment as-tu découvert ma chaîne?
Good advice to let the pad and the compound do the work, especially on plastics, so as not to overheat the application.
👍🏻
Great demo, is there any point in using a more aggressive pad and/or polish? Or would this just be overkill on the black plastics like this? Tried with an all in one combo polish/compound product and still had some swirls left at the end.. take it I just need to step it down to a lighter pad and finishing polish? Thanks.
It always depends on your level of defects removal desires, and condition of the trim... Always use the less aggressive method to achieve the desired results, all while keeping in mind you don't want to overpolish and run the risk of removing all the clear coat. Clear coat preservation is important, as you want it to last for years.
We don't usually aim 100% paint correction or perfection on daily driven vehicles. You'd be removing too much material. 85-90% is the sweet spot. If you can't see the scratches from a few feet away, it's more than enough. Nobody in the real world goes up to a vehicle with a bright inspection light and fine tooth comb. Question of common sense.
Great job

Great video! @Pan, is it safe to do this with a vehicle that has a hidden/built-in keypad? Our Ford Explorer has a keypad that lights up when you touch the pillar to enter in the code. Not sure if polishing this pillar will affect that system.

There shouldn't be any issues with polishing your pillars with built-in keypads, as there is still that outer layer that can be corrected. And start with a light polish (perhaps no need for a compound) and don't be overly aggressive with the level of polishing. But like anything, perhaps try on an inconspicuous area first, or not the main driver side door first hehe.
Good afternoon, Pan. Thank you so much for sharing the video demonstrating the black piano plastic fix. Pan, I need an orientation. Could you provide any literary sources that allow me to understand the mechanisms by which ceramic tiles determine water repellency? Beading and sheeting? Or even show me a video of your authorship that explains these mechanisms? Grateful for the attention. Waston Ribeiro.
You can see a bit of it in a video I made with an industry chemist that discusses ceramic coatings here: th-cam.com/video/A8V7_HysfwA/w-d-xo.html
Hey Pan, could you do an air dryer comparison? I'm debating weather to get one or just dry it with Max shine duo twisted drying towel. Thank you in advance!!
I presented my three blowers in this video: th-cam.com/video/m19CMDUOBZM/w-d-xo.html
Mr. Pan, around December, I'm going to be buying one of the mini polishers you mentioned in the affordable polishers video to perform this job. Given your experience, do you think a compound would be too aggressive? I know you said it's a softer surface...
Always start with the less aggressive method first: the polish. That should be more than enough. If that doesn't do it, then yes you can move to a compound, and finish with a polish.
Pan, thank you for your video. How do we restore very stubborn watermarks on car body?

Hey Pan! Thanks for the video!
Would you recommend Meguiars PlastX polish for the same procedure?
Thanks a million! Lots of love and appreciation all the way from sunny South Africa 🇿🇦
That's not what PlastX is made for. As per Meguiar's directions: "PlastX quickly restores clarity to both rigid and flexible uncoated clear plastics Removes cloudiness, yellowing, oxidation, and fine scratches in clear plastics, for use on headlights, plastic convertible windows, plexiglass, brake lights, and other uncoated clear plastic surfaces."
So people mainly use PlastX for headlight restoration.
@@PanTheOrganizer thanks a million! I really appreciate it!
Thank you Pan again for the informative video, can you use this same polish on the inside console to fix scratches?
On gloss black trim yes.
Thanks and also the new piano black trim?
