    Hello from southern Oregon! I've been detailing cars for 37 years and i still learn from your videos. Always enjoy watching! Can you tell me what kind of overhead lights you guys use. Those lights really show the defects in the paint well.

    I wish I had a garage to do all this comfortably 🙁 .. most people tell me it's not good to be outside because of the immediate contamination from being outside for just a few minutes so I've been hesitant even though my car really needs a polish.

    • @bansheerider619
      @bansheerider619 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      the paint has to be really bad to use compound. Compound has no polishing ability. Compound has heavy abrasives to correct damaged paint by removing a layer of the factory clear coat. After compound you need oils/fillers to fill the gaps created by the compound as well as shine. Polish merely fills the imperfections and shines. Then you need a top coat to protect the work you did, such as a ceramic, wax, or sealant. You can skip all these steps by using a compound/polish 2 in 1, but you may not get the same result. Also keep in mind each product requires a certain pad to use. You dont want to use a cutting pad for polish or wax LOL.
