  • Learn how to detail a car with faded, scratched, paint. I will show you how to do paint correction by hand, how to remove swirl marks, how to restore faded trim, how to restore headlights, and finally how to fix sun damaged paint. I got this car for $500 and it wasn't running and was super dirty. Now the car runs and looks dripping wet!

    Hopefully you guys like the video! It's basically 4-5 videos in one with tons of info on how to get your car clean!
    So we can avoid the same comments over and over, check the description for all the links! Also, yes, ChrisFish is me, and not an impostor. It is my second channel I will start this year for when I go fishing, which I love to do. It is my way of still "working" and not feeling bad about going out fishing instead of filming, editing, or answering comments. Now I can do both!

    I have zero car fixing experience, zero dollars, and a 2015 Civic that's looking a little neglected... not a great combination. I was thiiiis close to booking a $400 dollar detailing extravaganza that was supposed to fix all the things addressed because, really, that's still cheaper than a new car. However, you swooped in just in time. Seriously, THANK YOU. This video is the first I've seen that made a color correction and headlight defogging accessible without purchasing hundreds of dollars in products and tools. I'ma fix this sucker myself. :)

      Assuming he makes just 1 dollar per 1000 views on average (in reality it's even more for views coming from western countries), he made as a bare minimum 6 thousand dollars on this video alone, but most likely at least 2 to 4 times as much, so upwards of 10 or even 20 thousand dollars...on just this video alone...and he'll constantly keep getting more views on this video for years and years to come, not including sponsors he gets from time to time, which adds even more. So while it is free to watch, he got more money on this single video, than people in my country get for 4 entire years on an average job, now look at how many views on his other videos he has and do the math. If he asked for money,for example to sell a book with this information, he would make far, far less, so this is a win-win for us as viewers and him as author.

    I'm so glad you did this by hand. 99% of youtube detailers seem to presume everyone has access to a DA polisher and lives in a house with a driveway and has access to mains power right next to their car. A lot different here in the UK, where you can struggle to park on the same road you live on lol.

    I just love your channel. I have a 2019 Ford F-150 that got damaged because it was under a portable garage with concrete blocks tied to the legs to hold it down in Tucson and the wind literally lifted the cover and dragged 2 of the concrete blocks over the truck. Horrible scratches and rub marks from the legs over the passenger side. I've been slowly working out the scratches with 3000 grit sandpaper and am about to move onto 5000 before doing the final compound and polish steps.
    From this video, I learned about the ceramic coating, which I am definitely going to buy and use to rejuvenate all the plastic pieces (the Tucson sun is brutal and faded the plastic quite a bit in just 3 years). I'm now in Oregon where the sun isn't nearly as brutal.

    I'll keep saying this over & over: Chris stands head & shoulders above most video presenters in the world. His presentations are relevant, precise, possess clear brevity, are succint, and accompanied by awesome inspiring video content & editing excellence. I have never gotten bored with any of his videos that I watched, and usually came out much better educated vs past presenters of the same material/topic anywhere, that I had an opportunity to listen to. A fantastic educator/Teacher. A true leader.
    Great Job my friend. You deserve every You Tube award, and wish you many more rewards of all types to come.
