- When polishing your cars paint there are few very important factors. What kind of polisher, which pads and polishes, and your technique all play a very important part in to how well you paint comes out. But one of the most important things when doing a paint correction or paint enhancement is lighting! You can't fix what you can't see and having proper lighting will give you the confidence you need when polishing your cars paint. I show you a few different options for lighting ranging from beginner to the best known lighting brand for automotive paint which is scangrip. ENJOY!!!

Just to clarify for the newbies your one pass is 1 cross hatch pattern. Left to Right and Up and Down.
I have all kinds of great light in my garage but it’s amazing how many more defects I can see using a simple led light, great video Josh 👍😁
Thanks for another great video Josh . . . glad to see those lights come in a headset.👍
Just ordered a Maxshine M15 Pro thanks to your advice. Thanks for the discount code brother!
Thanks Josh another great video.
Awesome stuff!
As always, thanks for the video. Need to decon, clay and police my car soon. Will be stocki g up shortly.
Would love to see a video on using a clear coat gauge and what’s the safe range to do a paint correction on a vehicle. For one step and 2 step !!
Another great video Josh. Ordering one today! Any news or updates on a new foam from you????
Hi From Ukraine! A little about scangrip lights, temperature regulator in Detailing is cool thing!!! Thats why: on light colors like white or grey, much easy to find scratches with warm light! On dark colors like Black - cold light is better. Just try it and you see the differense. For example, for me is so hard to polish grey cars without warm light) (sorry for my english!)
And best to see defect on Dark room.
Great video as always Josh! Any chance you wanna do a review of the Predator 3200psi 2.8 gpm pressure washer?? You're pretty much the only guy I trust to give that thing an honest review!
Hi Josh 🖐, I really enjoyed this video 👍👍. I am just a DIY’er, and I have always looked after my vehicles as good as I knew how to, but in the last couple years I have discovered the world of impressive auto detailing and I have taken my game from good to striving for the ‘best’. Thanks to TH-cam and the Detailing Channel I have watched hundreds of hours of detailing videos and yours is one of a handful that I always come back to!! I have picked up a few good tips from you, especially from this video as I have been thinking about lighting and you really demonstrated the importance and benefits of quality lighting. THANKS for your efforts!! 🍺🍺
I need to step up my lighting
Can you review the scan grip multi R vs multi match 3? What’s the difference? And what’s worth it
What is the color temperature and the CRI index for your lights?
When will the Mjjc foam cannon be back in stock on your website
Thanks for the content. Should you make the choice again. Would you think that 1x Multimatch 8 connect would be a better set up than 2x Multimatch 3 connect or even 1x Multimatch 3 connect for the car detailing. It looks that the both lights have power, so it may be down to the modularity each can offer.
Do you have a link for the Husky lights?
When do you Reccomend to use a paint gauge reader ? And are they all the same
I'd love to challenge you to find lighting at Walmart that can work. They do sell stuff there that I believe can work but I'd love to see what you come up with.
Has anyone had success with these flashlight type swirl detectors on Pearl White paint? Everything I use just reflects back in my face. Tried pitch black in my garage - nothing. Going to park in front of a street light next to see what shows up. My car, so I'm really just looking to see if I Need to spend any extra time on area while applying AIO outside.
A detailing lamp that is very good and not expensive, it is the "shark dragon LED Work Light W832", Made in China but very well made! 40w cob 3800lms.
Fashion low light and high, there are not as many settings where different temperature, a Meguiar's MT103 for example, but for the beginner whose money is important, the W832 is excellent and robust with its housing metal, rubber protection, can be used as charger for smartphones, powerful magnet.
HELLO MR FANTASTIIIIIC
Hey Josh. I appreciate all of your videos but I have a pretty random question… where did you purchase those bottle storage racks from, with the individual spots? I’m thinking I definitely need those in my life! Thanks!
Max shine
Hey Josh so to clarify are you using the M210 to do paint enhancement? I’m trying to doing paint correction on a black Cadillac CTS would you recommend the m110 to cut or the Da ultimate compound because I want to use the meguiars microfiber pad since I used the buff and shine uro with the 3D all in one and I didn’t receive the look I’m looking for.
Test spots
Weird question, how would one go about correction and polishing around the hard to reach areas like inside door handles?
Not even a nanopolisher can access handle recesses properly, so most detailers simply finger polish under door handles. That's pretty much what I do. If you've got a lot of crap and scratches under the handles then a couple of light passes with a magic eraser will correct a lot before going in with a refining polish or glaze.
Think you said.... overkill ......somewhere in the video. You've got that right
If the budget light can deliver the same light effect as scangrip. I cannot think of any reason to buy scangrip. I will not spend almost a double just for the frame material. They both have magnet on bottoms.
Hey brother, would you care to do a video or just a comment response. I am interested in your opinion on when a mobile detailer is ready to open a garage. Thank you.
great video
I have the hardest time with white paint. Seems like no matter what light I use I still can’t see the defects well. I’ve seen people turn all lights off and use just one work light. Thoughts ?
Have you used the sunmatch 3?
Doesnt the cell phone light do the same thing?
I put a microfiber towel between magnets and my car. But yeah no metal to metal contact on my paint. Magnetize at owners discretion.
Anyone else the big beewbed poster on top? Lol 😂 every guys shop has and needs one 1:19
Do you normally use a clay bar application on most treatments?
YES
Is that a dewalt 🤔
Did lacee win?
link of product ? sorry i found it.
Why not an LED tube instead of a spotlight?
That’s a good option too but I feel like the spotlights show more of the defects
Lmfao most of these don't even exist anymore
1st
Omg you remind me of old Larry from ammo NYC. So much talking!
Probably can get a whole new paint job for $3000 depending on the car…🥴🤷🏽♂️
