This is a great video Phil, thanks. It's good to get the facts out about just what can happen to a car at a body shop. Most of us see this kind of thing once in awhile and it's heartbreaking. The only way to stop it is to shine a light on it and call these shops out and make it absolutely unacceptable to turn out work like this and stay in business. On a lighter note, I used to love regular super cheap Turtle Wax spray carnauba cleaner wax. It had decent surfactants in it and could actually take care of light water spots on all surfaces. Never find it anymore. Meguiars DA Finishing Wax works great for light spot etching on painted surfaces with its mild clay abrasives. Thanks! 👍👌✌
This type of video is a huge graduate level of information that could not be passed on without years of experience and the knowledge gained from the good and the bad results when working on a car that should look wonderful after a new paint job but instead, well this video explains the "Instead". So many people like myself with limited experience are thanking God for this kind of video. All the answers given while encountering every issue. Terrific!
I completely agree with you that nothing a detailer can do on the back-end of a bad paint job. I grew up with a father in autobody and have helped repaint 3 of my own vehicles (2 were color changes). The body shop needs to remove the trim (i.e. taping off not sufficient) to do a proper job on a color change as a mm of taping error could leave traces of the old color at the edge of the trim. I'm betting the sand marks on the trim were dry sanding from using the DA to buzz off the clear on the old paint job.
When The Body Shop doesn't take the time to even sand out the sanding marks before the base/clear is applied. It's pretty much downhill from there unfortunately. Fantastic documentation & advice on the paint phil.
Great catch Phil! I used to do a black car that was repainted on the drivers door in the "quality" you showed us in this vid. I took this oppurtunity to talk to the customer, explain the situation and then make the call to wetsand, compound and polish the whole door. It was perfect after, but I had spent another additional 2.5 hours just to fix this correctly. I didn't have to deal with fisheyes or dustnibs, but it had runs as well. The customer was willing to pay the additional cost and was very happy after. But doing that to a whole car, no way ... I would also have stayed away like you did.
Dang Phil, that's pretty rough. I've been in the collision industry for nearly 40 years. I have a distinct feeling that's from one of the Richmond Maaco centers. We own a Maaco center in Hampton and while we specialize in economical paint services, our shop is also an I-CAR Gold Class certified collision facility. Sadly, not all Maaco centers care about the product they put out. I assure you, something like that would never leave our shop. Seal & Squeal is a great product, but a bit more aggressive AIO might have cleaned that. But that isn't what the customer was looking for.
Hi. Yeah I’m not sure if it was Macao actually. He didn’t say. But yeah it’s pretty sad. Unfortunately I was not going to go any further on this because he didn’t want to.
My aunt had her camry repaired at a body shop that is very praised locally. Just as bad as this. I simply do not understand how places like this stay in business
Awesome job as always poorly paint work at body shop this is good for the new comers and detailers that do this on a daily base those water spots are when they sand the car they didn't wash it properly and took it inside to get painted very bad work of body shop as always Phil great tutorial be safe god bless William from extreme optimum auto detailing pr
Wow, beautiful car with a poorly painted vehicle, i bet the bodyshop's air compressor probably have moisture in it, they didn't tack the paint before shooting the clear and probably didn't use the correct reducer. As always Phil, great video and keep em coming....
Very very Detailed and a must do Approach very important thing always document otherwise its the detailers behind on fire. would it be wise to go one step further with a water-spot remover on such jobs or keep them away?
@@MirandaDetailingyeah i totally agree with you on this we cant go exploring with other products as well cause thats just one more excuse by the bodyshop. though i have to say i really enjoy your videos i saw your review of the paint guage and bought one its really nice
My advice to detailing a car that was recently repainted is to not work on it until the shop is completely done with the vehicle because they can say that the owner didn't give them a chance to fix any imperfections which in turn CAN make YOU liable. I'm in Connecticut so your state laws might be different. Let the shop be completely done with the vehicle and then do your magic. Big fan of Miranda Detailing.
Thanks! Yeah I agree. But that’s only IF the shop agrees. The shop told the owner to give it a “wax job” 😖. So they obviously were “done” with it and didn’t want to touch it anymore. Shameful. But yes I told the customer to bring it back even before we touched it. But they went by what the shop told them. So I had the customer sign our acknowledgment form and documented this very well for both the owner and shop.
@@MirandaDetailing ok then if they told the owner to get it waxed then you're clear of any liability issues. Thanks for responding. Viva Miranda Detailing.
Hi. Actually we made a few videos about that th-cam.com/video/1lO8vdgkCRk/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/ak3jzmkUa20/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/eDfA4GnhldY/w-d-xo.html
This is a great video. This was more informative than what most detailer’s post. These are things that we don’t deal with very often, but should know what to look for and how to deal with it. I would have really like to have seen you explain to your customer what you found and what went wrong at the body shop. 👍👍
I would have that body shop reclear that thing. Screw trying to correct it. I’ve done body work and detailing and for me that thing needs to be recleared.
@@MirandaDetailing ok I understand. Was just thinking about what u said in the video about having better light for seeing defects...didn’t know if that would help any...great video as always
Unfortunately car painting is one of those things that you really do get what you paid for. A cheap paint job really is a cheap paint job. There is so much more to a painting a car than paint /compressor/gun! . Some TH-camrs show painting to be easy but its not. I'm not a painter but know what goes into a decent paint job and I couldn't do it. That body shop whoever they are give the industry a bad name don't you think? A great video, scary for people who are having their cars painted!
Exactly! I used to do some minor body work and painting back in the day also. That’s why I can spot these things. It certainly does take a lot to really do quality body work and painting to make sure it’s near perfect. Thanks for sharing!
I know it’s a black paint job, and dark paint shows swirls the worst of all. But that is some crazy swirls for a month old paint job? Could that be due to a soft clear sprayed at the body shop? Being that it was a horrible paint job. Or could be that it was washed too soon after being painted?
The only way to straighten that car out is to remove the doors,hood,deck lid,grill,door handles,etc to repaint it. Replace the rubber seals and plastic trim that was painted over because removing the paint from them will damage them. It’s a heinous crime what they did to that car. The body shop must have a grudge against that car owner
I hope he didn't pay much for that Maco special that looked like it was done with a home made spray gun. The clear runs are really bad. I would ask for my money back and go to reputable body shop discuss what they will do to clean up that mess. I saw he is a purple heart recipient it's shame to treat a veteran that poorly.
I had a similar car with same defects , but I did not like the way customer spoke to me in a demanding way and wanted perfection and with a low budget in mind and decided to walk away from job with excuse of I did not have proper equipment to fulfill your expectations. Does mr Miranda ever have customer u avoid
Hi. Oh yeah we have dealt those types of people before. If they give us attitude or they obviously don’t know what they are talking about we refuse service.
A $299 and a $1000 complete correction job. All car paints should be removed and a good primer on before and a base coat and a clear coat or just forget it and keep as is or don't expect a price winning paint job.
That's Terrible The Body Shop Did A Crappy job On The Paint And Clear Coat On This Car!! I Have A Question Phillip Which Type Of Wheel Cleaner Do You Recommend Using On Very Delicate Wheels?.. My Friend Just Bought A Vehicle With Gloss Black Wheels Like This Car, But Doesn't Know What Type Of Cleaner To Use To Avoid Scratches On Them. 🤔
Should have asked where they did the paint job so people can stay clear of bet they didn't think someone who knew there shit would be seeing there crappy ass job
I don't understand.. I see a bottle of F-11 in the trunk, so someone "sprayed er' down." *None* of this should have happened. You just clean it with an old wet sponge and it's show ready.. weird.. 🤔🤔
What a mess the boy shop created on that car. Paint takes at least 30 days to cure and the body shop should be ashamed of that work. From not reverse masking the jambs to painting the rubber seals. Customer should never have accepted the car back. Also the DA sander work on the trim, such poor quality work. There is nothing you can do to fix this as a detailer. You can’t make chicken salad out our chicken $hit..... best is just to wash it and let the customer get with the body shop. Keep up the great videos.
Those marks look like high spots from a failed coating job. So ultimately this would need a spot wet sanding and a 2 step throughout to fix most of it?
Dear Phil great video,.....please can i use some help? i received today some SPTA pads. (the one that looks like rupes design) ....please can i ask??......i touched the blue coarse one and it feels SO SO harsh. do you have any experience with blue SPTA rupes like pad?I scared to use it on paint!!! white and yellow are ok for me.....nice velcro nice feeling the foam. thanks a lot
Hi. I actually don’t even use the SPTA blue pad at all. I don’t use heavy cutting foam pads. I only use microfiber cutting pads for compounding. But even though it’s rough that’s what it’s supposed to be. It’s for heavy compounding.
What do you think of the DA you were using ? Is the battery life good, I’m looking to buy my first DA and a little unsure which to purchase And could you recommend me a good paint inspection lamp thanks 👍
@@MirandaDetailing my guess is he gave up. He prob went for the cheapest option for a respray and now realises he prob needs to make the difference up by getting a paint correction and wet sand.
Why didn’t you just do an all in one polish? Should have helped to remove some of those water spots and scratches and it would have probably taken the same time and charge more for it.
Well unfortunately that’s not what the customer wanted. I tried to explain but i don’t try to convince the customer to do anything they don’t want to do. But I did a test spot and even though it helps with swirls that’s not what the customer was concerned about and it wouldn’t help the horrible paint job. In this case we didn’t go any further becasue the body shop really needed to fix this.
@@MirandaDetailing I try to stay away from those type of customers, but I hear what your saying. I had to say no to a job that had bad paint overspray on 3 cars and I had to deal with the paint contractor and does guys don’t like to pay much, I told him if you want it done right you gotta do it this way if not I’m not doing it at all because the owners of those cars won’t be happy with my work and it looks bad on me and you will probably won’t want to pay me at the end. So I walked away.
Extremely poor quality control. The body shop manger must’ve been on vacation. Hack paint job. I certainly would have suggested the customer contact the body shop and point out all the defects for a redo at a better shop at their expense. A 9 year old with a rattle can could’ve done a better job. Beautiful car with a janky paint job. He literally jumped out of the frying pan into the fire. Purchased the SPTA wireless DA polisher. Have not used it yet.
UNLESS you go to a place who specializes in custom paint jobs/high end body shop then you will just about always have imperfections in the paint work especially for a full color change. This looks like a $1000 macco job, I have seen a lot worse lol
Hi. Maybe it would have with the LC Orange pad or the Koch Chemie Pad that works with P601 but Koch Chemie products where not here yet in the US at the time of filming that job. I would have totally tried it. But again it wasn't a paint enhancement service and the customer didn't want to pay any more then what we did at the time.
@@MirandaDetailing ah I see thanks Phil by the way you have taught me a lot and it’s pretty awesome to see ya work wish your wife. I hope the Camry guy came back paid ya cause crap isn’t free and got it done ✅
damn that sucks :(. The customer does sound a bit strange though.. Would have been far easier to just buy the car in the colour that you wanted if its near factory colour. Thats one of the worst quality paint jobs ive seen. Kind of makes you wonder how much he paid for it
great TIPS good friend.ill never understand how it's cheaper 2 do ANY job multiple times shitty and wrong vs 1 time the professional way the correct way.maybe I'm retarded and only a pt detailer but seriously .sad part about this sometimes customers go and pay top dollar and still get screwed over.i know I'm very brash 2 people and tell the BLUNT truth,but will or haven't lied or screwed ANY1 over in life it's just wrong and unethical.thats my spin.great video and tutorial Phil looks awesome. sorry about the rant.b well and stayn safe good friend
Horrible paint job! Some of the “Dust Nibs” those are actually Fisheyes from improper cleaning before spraying. I am a custom painter and detailer for over 30 yrs. Good luck 🤦
Thanks yeah I used to do body work and painting back in the day. Some are fisheyes but mostly dust nibs. I can feel the difference and see it up close in the light. Thanks for sharing.
Rlly bad paint work even me if i try i dont do that mess i paint a lot of time myn motor bike alone and never do that mess 🤣🤣 and i dont have all professional stuff like them just normal stuff for car painting and how you ruin customers cars like that and pretend is someone else i will have shame of myn self if i was the painter but unfortunatly there is people like that too and it was cheap for sure too i dont think real professional like you give to a customer a ruined car like that
Yep, Maaco quality paint job for sure! 😂
Brutal paint job, good thing you documented all that. Good work on the video, the bodyshop will have to fix their butcher job.

Give us an update on what the customer says to what you have found. Great video by the way!
Hi. Sorry I didn’t hear from him again after this. Not sure why.
@@MirandaDetailing that is weird probably upset with the the quality they received from the painter haha. Anyway great video very informative.
Wow what a terrible paint job! You did what only the customer says to do. Can’t go further unless said otherwise! I agree!
Is always easier critique , but your are right , every situation it’s different in this case the must know that the paint shop it’s the one to blame

Topcoat, Its No Joke!
This video/your notes show your attention to detail, amazing job!
Good paint jobs are not cheap , and cheap paint jobs are not good .
At 15:48 , those are called solvent pop , caused by not cleaning with wax and grease remover properly ( comanation )
True.

Hi. not sure, it seems the paint is soft and who knows how it was washed and cared for since the repaint. it's too bad.
The only way to straighten that car out is to remove the doors,hood,deck lid,grill,door handles,etc to repaint it.
Replace the rubber seals and plastic trim that was painted over because removing the paint from them will damage them.

The body shop must have a grudge against that car owner
Yes exactly! Now it needs more work now to get it back in shape.

Hey Phil can you apply the title wax to the max wax to glass with a polisher
Hi. Yeah you could. I used to apply sealants to the windshields, but I find they may smear more then a dedicated glass sealant.
@@MirandaDetailing ok and when u say glass sealant do u mean a glass coating rare they two different things?
Either one, we use some glass sealants like Griots. But glass coatings are even better.

Hey Phil I wanted to ask, wouldn't Koch Chemi p601 all in one, seal and remove those water marks? Or would this take longer ?
Hi. Maybe it would have with the LC Orange pad or the Koch Chemie Pad that works with P601 but Koch Chemie products where not here yet in the US at the time of filming that job. I would have totally tried it. But again it wasn't a paint enhancement service and the customer didn't want to pay any more then what we did at the time.
@@MirandaDetailing ah I see thanks Phil by the way you have taught me a lot and it’s pretty awesome to see ya work wish your wife. I hope the Camry guy came back paid ya cause crap isn’t free and got it done ✅
damn that sucks :(. The customer does sound a bit strange though.. Would have been far easier to just buy the car in the colour that you wanted if its near factory colour. Thats one of the worst quality paint jobs ive seen. Kind of makes you wonder how much he paid for it
Yeah. I would think the same thing. Why repaint and risk all of this? 🤦🏻♂️
@@MirandaDetailing Silver lining is that it made for a good video :)
great TIPS good friend.ill never understand how it's cheaper 2 do ANY job multiple times shitty and wrong vs 1 time the professional way the correct way.maybe I'm retarded and only a pt detailer but seriously .sad part about this sometimes customers go and pay top dollar and still get screwed over.i know I'm very brash 2 people and tell the BLUNT truth,but will or haven't lied or screwed ANY1 over in life it's just wrong and unethical.thats my spin.great video and tutorial Phil looks awesome. sorry about the rant.b well and stayn safe good friend
oh o better get maaco or other words it might be a maaco paint job they famous for this type of paint jobs
Who did the respray?
Stevie Wonder?
Or as we say in the UK that well known double act
Bodge it & Scarper
Thats a joke of a paint job. Colour change from what colour? Looks like it was black previously as well from the door jambs
What a terrible respray. Probably the worst i have seen. No pride in their work, completely negligent.
I wouldn't have even taken that car back from the shop.. That paint is atrocious to say the least. Ive done better with a rattle can
M-Double A-C-Ohhhh that's another terrible paint job.
Nothing worst than a cheap customer wanting perfection.... stay away from them.
I hope your client never paid the garbage paint job !!!!
Unfortunately he did, I not sure if he ever got it fixed though, I haven't heard from him.
Horrible paint job! Some of the “Dust Nibs” those are actually Fisheyes from improper cleaning before spraying. I am a custom painter and detailer for over 30 yrs. Good luck 🤦
Thanks yeah I used to do body work and painting back in the day. Some are fisheyes but mostly dust nibs. I can feel the difference and see it up close in the light.
Thanks for sharing.
that company has comical names 4 their products
1st from Puerto Rico 👍🇵🇷
like I said, inside job. 🤣
Humberto Humberto !!!!😲😆😆
You get what you pay for…
Wow - that is some of the lousiest body shop work I've seen. They were obviously out of masking tape! Talk about lack of pride in workmanship.
Bad paint job..
Rlly bad paint work even me if i try i dont do that mess i paint a lot of time myn motor bike alone and never do that mess 🤣🤣 and i dont have all professional stuff like them just normal stuff for car painting and how you ruin customers cars like that and pretend is someone else i will have shame of myn self if i was the painter but unfortunatly there is people like that too and it was cheap for sure too i dont think real professional like you give to a customer a ruined car like that
maybe I should get my knee surgery in ur surgical bay.tons of light.lol.i bet u and I could paint better with rattle can. lol.🤣🤣🤣🤣
