I used to live in Bluffton down by Hilton Head Island, but I recently relocated to Palm Beach, FL. I hope to have a shop again soon so I can crank out more videos.

You can get away with just a polish on light colored Toyotas because the paint is so soft, but if you want to get most of the defects out, you’ll need to compound the paint before polishing. And if you’re doing their white acrylic lacquer single stage paint, you’ll definitely need to compound first, but that’s not a paint type I’d recommend learning to paint correct on.

A very boring car, but one of the most reliable.

I used a diluted APC on the leather and Carpet Bomber on the suade.

A yellow foam pad and 3D One polish

@@HamptonsTouch Could you link what yellow foam pad you used?

I’ve maintained it for him, but the car has unfortunately gone back and forth to the dealership for a broken hood latch, where it sat outside for several weeks, then an employee of the owner gave it a dry wipe down with a microfiber and roughed the paint all up. So I had to do it a second time.

You can clean under the hood with water so long as you’re careful of how close you’re getting the pressure washer. The pressure will push the moisture past the seals of the electrical connectors if you’re too close, and it’s always best to look over everything to make sure all the connections are secure, and the fuse box is properly latched shut. There are some fuse boxes that have openings on the sides, so it’s best for cover them with a bag while cleaning.

I’m glad you enjoyed the video!

Whether you start on exterior or interior is just personal preference. There’s no specific order to go in. I’d personally rather get the exterior cleaned so I can get the vehicle pulled inside. If I did the interior first then pulled it outside to wash it, there’s a chance dirt, dust, or pollen can blow into the vehicle while I’m cleaning out the door jambs, and I want to avoid having to re-vacuum and wipe down the interior. That’s just me though.

Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed it

I’d love to do your Jeep, but I’m located in SC.

Thank you! I used Chemical Guys wheel woolies and some generic brushes I found on Amazon.

I used Meguairs M100 on a purple twisted wool Lake Country pad for the rotary followed be M100 on a Griot’s Garage microfiber cutting pad for the DA, and finished with 3D One on a Rupes yellow foam pad for the DA.

What does DA mean?

Thank you!

The most important thing about spraying down an engine bay is avoiding directly spraying critical electrical components like the fuse box and PCM. All electrical connections have seals to keep out moisture, so it’s alright to get them wet, but just be careful about the pressure you hit them with. That’s how water can get past the seals. I hold the wand as high as I can to reduce the pressure, as well as using a lower pressure nozzle. Also I don’t use a constant flow of water, I just do quick spurts of water to rinse away the suspended dirt and suds. And congratulations on your new vehicle!

I used HD Speed by 3D on the glass. It has some wax in it you can leave behind for protection, or strip it and coat the glass. I like using it because it won’t leave white residue marks on the rubber trim.

@@HamptonsTouch absolutely! Quick question, I think I saw in some previous videos you used a clay mitt? If so, does that ever leave any more marring compared to traditional clay? Just in your experience.

Thank you!
