GIVING MY CAR A COMPLETE MAKEOVER!!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 26 сер 2024
- It’s been a long time since the Accord has shined like she once did. After acquiring and parting ways with cars here and there, the Accord has been gotten neglected from time to time. By neglected, I mean it doesn’t get washed 2 times a week, metaphorically licked clean, and the upmost attention. That’s all about to change!
Enough is enough. It has been a couple years since the Accord has gotten a full exterior multi-step paint correction, a complete ceramic coating, and the attention that it deserves.
Feel free to take a look at the tools and products I’ve outlined in this video. By purchasing items below, it helps my channel operate and brings more awesome content your ways. Thank you all for your generous support!! 💙

Love the detailing vids Milan, reminds me of the old days of the channel, keep safe 👍👍👍👍
Glad you enjoyed it!! Brings back the old plastidipping vibes 😂
Awesome timing. I actually was just outside giving my own black vehicle a hand waxing. Looks gorgeous. Waxing (and buffing) a car by hand is great for someone with OCD. Mowing grass too! lol
And a good workout too when you need to buff it out lol been there, done that!
I just did my ride today. Hours of work to bring her back with all the unknown chips and dings hidden during the winter. Cheers
Oh I feel you! Its crazy!
My 7th gen is a mess. It needs a polish and some parts repainted, i.e, the roof. It looks like a peeling sunburn, gotta love hondas mid 2000's clear coat issues. After that, ive got a new bumper to repaint and put on and I think ive underestimated the work that I have ahead of me. Stay safe!
What will it cost for you to do my truck like this? My
Brother lives across the street from you. I also
Live in the area 😉
i miss summer so much now. its still snowing here in north norway, it has snowed for 15 days straight. tomorrow it will be 3 celcius im so exited
YEAH BUDDY!!! Hopefully that 3 degrees turns into 13 and then 23 sooner than later! We just had snow here too last week. What strange weather..
@@milanmastracci yeah i hope it too
This spring has been so wierd
Milan you're awesome! I got a 2008 accord coupe a few months ago and your videos are very informative and inspiring for me
Black on black is chefs kiss
I have 2008 Honda Accord v6 with 171k miles and still running great
Damn..nice detail bro!!!
Milan san. Good work on the Honda I'm learning so much from you I wish I had a garage so I can work🚘🚙🚘🚙👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾🛠🔧👌🏾 indoor
Thinking about wrapping mine
Mate that looks terrific, great description too . Cant wait to do my black car . Awesome job 👍🏼
Thanks Dan! I appreciate it brother 👊
Excellent - back to the type of videos I fell in love with on your channel. Thanks
Glad you enjoy it!
I've always been curious, do you have a drain in your garage? How to you wash in the garage without water going everywhere?
Good question. I was wondering that too.
Ever heard of a broom??????😄
I use a squeegee. The garage is slightly sloped outwards so even without the squeegee, it does drain towards the garage doors. After I'm done washing the car, if there is still standing water, I squeegee it out, otherwise if it's a hot day, it will evaporate.
I love detailing , and watching detailing videos
Likewise! They're so satisfying 😍
Amazing detaling. Results are awesome.
I will try same steps to make my ride shinning like new. Thanks for the video
Thank you!! Take your time with it, and you'll get great results 👍
Wow! It is like a mirror. Very good job Milan
Just did a wash and resealed my paint last weekend and i love the shine.
Please do a video on that rust repair if you're planning on repairing it. I know you did one for the golf before but it would be nice to see an updated one, especially one that's more repair than just replacing the panels. Excited to see the next vid!
Oh I plan on it!
As always very inspiring, and helpful
Great video bro. I do miss the mk4 videos.
Thank you Mike! Its been awhile since that car was around..
Luv detailing 🥊🖤🖤🖤🤩😍🤩😍🦾🦾🥵🥵🔥🔥
It's a love hate relationship. The work is time consuming and quite tedious, but the results speak for themselves!!
i appreciate the effort you put in your videos, they are very understanding. much love
Glad you like them!! Thank you 👊
Man I love your videos! I own a Black R56 and I’m doing some mods to it. I need to get it detailed like you just did! I’m definitely picking up those same products! Thanks for all the info! Keep up all of the videos! And yes black car with Silver wheels is sweet! Take care and be safe! I’ll be watching more of your videos. Thanks man! From Sunny Las Vegas! ☀️🌴👍🤙
Yep Black cars w/ silver wheels mesh perfectly. I got a black 8th gen Coupe w/ H&R springs riding on EVO X silver wheels 18x8.5 +38 and it sits just right and handles nice. I didn't do coil overs on my 8th gen since lowering the 8th gen 2" or more kills the axles way to quickly. This is my daily so i went w/ H&R and threw on a 3 rear peice camber kit if i wanted to do a track conservative alignment. Would post a pic if it let me lol. Cant wait for the K24a2/K24z3 block to be done and you can post about it
That's wicked! I had some Evo wheels too on my Accord at some point and loved how they looked. I'm pumped for my engine build too! 🎉 should be done soon (given Covid..)
This is my favorite honda model
This car is the reason how i found this channel years ago. Also the reason why I purchase my car
I have nt03s on my 9th gen civic si coupe as well... I also love the silver wheel look on black cars... my opinion it looks super clean
Outstanding! Shared on 8th Gen FB group! Stay Safe! Peace!☮✌
My guy!! 🙌
I remember watching your video on doing the whole process to prepare for the paint coating. This was fun to watch since I did not have to do any of the work. I wish I had your garage to do what you do. The car looks good again and you are happy so that is all good. Enjoy and no speeding tickets! :P
Awesome! Thank you! Ahah yes, no speeding tickets! 🙏
Loved it man! Are you going to attack that rust spot on a later video? Would love to see that. Cheers!
NICE JOB!
How about scrapping the k24 on the accord and putting it into a cheap project. Would make for a better build.
Hi, love your videos! It is inspiring. I just bought a 2017 EX-L coupe, same color with less than 30K on it. The car is like new except those curb rashes on rims. I am 6'4", this coupe is one of the most comfortable car I had ever driven. How do you like your rim and tire combination, I am looking for something with less road noise and a bit softer ride. Thank you again for sharing your love of car!!
Hi Walter, thanks for commenting and congrats on your new ride! I would look into lightweight wheel and tire combo, something like an 18" Enkei PF01 with a Michelin tire. It will be lighter than stock, quieter than stock, and will look great on your car. You just need to be careful when parking and going through drive throughs. Hope that helps!
Great job👍
Thank you!! 👍
Thank you for the amazing content and informative videos you always putting out for us
My pleasure! Thank you so much 🙌
Great video! It's ok to use an air wrench to remove the lugs, but you should be using a torque wrench only to tighten them to spec.
You can use an impact gun on the highest setting to remove the lug nuts, but when putting them on, on the lowest setting, it only torques the lug nuts to about 40 foot pounds, which is enough to hold the wheel, but not enough to go over spec. I then follow it up with my torque wrench 👍
Getting some Car Cleaning Guru vibes from this video ;)
Love that!
great car, great looks!!
Thank you Carlos! 👊
I literally have the same car as you I have the ex 6cyl, and your videos were recommended to me from 4 years ago. Love the videos!! I’m planning to use adhesive tape to blackout the chrome on the two sides.
UrSadHuh You have to use vinyl or a plastidip spray instead of the adhesive tape 😉👍
That's awesome! You can get strips of the black vinyl for stuff just like that. Something like this is what you should get: amzn.to/2zFQYUn
milanmastracci I was looking around online looking for some too but I couldn’t find any good ones, so thank you for the recommendation! I saw your video “Blacking our window trim using plastic dip” and I like the way it turned out, only reason I’m using the blackout tape is just Incase I wanted to switch it back.
If you apply a foam just do it from bottom to top :]
Nice work
Thank you! Cheers!
Wow your car looks awesome !!! Congrats
Thanks Diego!! I appreciate it 🙌
That Mini Do on Fire!!!!!!!!!
💪
I would definitely go with something other then cquartz as your coating. They've kinda fallen behind company's like gyeon and gtechniq these days. Gtechniq specifically offers CSL which looks more Wax like and has 5 yr durability
why Isnt your Brother still in hospital ? youre a much more forgiving man than I, I take my hat off to you sir !!
😂 that's good! I wasn't impressed at the time, but getting mad about it doesn't solve anything.
Thanks for the upload! Great video. I found Hidden gem also. I’m installing 18x9.5 on my 2004 Acura TSX and I was wondering how the 255-35-18 would look ... PERFECT. THANKS
Thanks Rob! 👊 You'd have to play around with offsets, but I imagine you can get those specs to work. I'm not sure if I'm going to be keeping this setup actually because the 9.5s poke up front a bit. I prefer functional setups but that's just me 👍
How much horsepower can the k24a out of the tsx take with stock internals? And how much can the block handle with aftermarket good internals?
Your awesome!
i`m super interested in seeing the gains that power makes. If i have to guess i think lap times are all about them grip but power is fun
Right you are!! Grip and keeping your average speed up is key. Power is important, but I don't think as much as handling (tires, suspension, brakes, etc.)
Where did you find the carbon fiber engine cover ? 😍🔥
Love your content brother, been a subscriber since early days... please please please swap out the interior for a better condition one because the one in the accord has clearly seen better days
What do you mean swap out the interior for a better one?
milanmastracci the interior in the accord, have a look at the seats, the leather is creasing and scuffed. Try and find one in a better condition? Or maybe have them retrimmed
Where did you get the grill and steering wheel?
Thank you for this informative and quick tutorial! What clay bar would you recommend for the money?
Meguairs. I've had great results with their products. I've linked it in the description box :)
@@milanmastracci Thank you
So good man! This was awesome!
Glad you enjoyed it!
yeah it would look sweet in honda's new agean blue, anda bit more low
Ughhh yeah it would!! 🙌
You have to try Gtechniq CSL + EXO. It’s much better than Cquartz, trust me.
Where u get those four jacks?
Love it
❤️
Waiting for the Mini!
Its coming 🙈
where can i take my car to get something like this done??
NIce one Milan. Fantastic job. :-)
Thank you!!
Where’d you get that blacked out honda badge on the trunk lid?
eBay IIRC. I bought it awhile back.
is this the 8th gen accord coupe?
Did you fix the rust near the wheel well before you applied the ceramic coating?
Not yet. I might get it professionally done. If I'm going to do something, I'd rather do it right. I've done some of the budget methods and it just isn't the same as a professional job. I'd like to get the body shop to let me in their doors to record the process 👍
Where have u been?
Right on time I’ve been thinking to polish my car too...how many times can you polish your before the clear gets too thin ??? Excellent video Milan I missed the Honda!!!
Any time!! It all depends on how much you've polished. Its hard to say, but as long as you take your time to ensure you don't remove too much paint, you should be able to do it 10+ times to your car.
milanmastracci you are the best thanks Milan !!!
What your specs wheels and tires??
Where did you get the carbon fiber engine cover at?
One of them I bought on amazon, and the other I got sent to me from a subscriber! 🙌
I can't imagine how hard can be a winter in Canada, 20 years, non care, car here in Barcelona, have similar crap than your car in one year 🤯
Have you tried Vinyl Wrapping??
You mentioned about not doing to many agressive polish as at some point it might go through the clear coat. So how many times can you polish a car?
Also you used ceramic wax. What kind of soap would you recommend that you could buy at a autozone or canadiantire that could be affective? I heard you have to use some specific soap once the coating is on to not remove the coating after ... buts it’s confusing...
I’m about to go a complete paint restoration on my grand Cherokee for the first time and I want to make sure I do it right the first time. Tx a lot
It all depends how aggressive you are with your polishing. If done right, you should be able to polish your car like this 10+ times, which will go a long ways. For the soap, I use a regular car soap that strips any waxes and dirt, just so that nothing adheres to the ceramic coating. Think of it like a 'skin' on top of the paint. You have multiple layers of skin, but the top one is the one that gets the most abuse. The ceramic coating is rather hard, and should be able to withstand most car soaps, even the ones that strip like Dawn dish soap. Because it isn't a wax, it won't come off with washes, only abrasion.
milanmastracci
Thanks for the reply.
So what would be a good soap that would strip of any wax? And which one that would help maintain the car and wouldn’t remove any wax ?
Hey, how many clay bars did u use for the whole car?
Hey Milan, do you plan to remove the rust from your accord, if so can you make a video on it ?
Yes I do, and 10000% it will be covered on here.
@@milanmastracci Great! I'll be looking forward towards the video, I have the same issue on my accord.
3:54 Ise gold on the ground hahahahhaha
Yeah that's strange lol I don't have anything yellow on my car. Maybe its the 24k gold flakes I added to the car wash soap 💸
Im just wondering how he affords all these parts and rupes. I’m over here still using my Torq 10Fx
Taking my 2017 V6 to eternity with me. Detail this thing once a week,use C quartz & top it off with Chemical guys hydroslick.🥃
Thanks for sharing! You take care of your car, it will take care of you 💪
Hey if you don't mind me asking I've been wondering what do you do outside of UA-cam.
I've been making content on UA-cam for the past couple years now as my full time gig 👍
@@milanmastracci sounds fun, I usually try many things outside my passion to keep motivated.
U should sand blast you suspension parts
I would love to!!
You said the z 😉
Yeah I released that after I made the entire video 🙈 #fail
nice!
Thanks!
Pls turbooo it😍😍
We want more Z video’s 😁😁😁
I'm happy to hear that! Did you get a chance to watch my last video about the Z? 🙌
milanmastracci a huge fan brother , and sure yah i did but we need maintenance videos , like cleaning injectors, belts and stuff like that
Damn, never been this early lol.
Same 🙈
Great videos but how many times can you say "you guys"?
why clean in the garage?
damn bruh how much real life time did you spend?
my car needs a complete makeover
hey milan why dont you do a $500-$1000 respray on the accord and get all the minor dents removed and make her look CRISPY
I've been contemplating it tbh! She needs some loving all around. Maybe even a colour change while I'm at it 🤷♂️
You didn't showed how you fixed that rust spot
That is because I didn't address the rust spot yet. I will address it shortly 👍
I swear he should really open a Auto detailing shop!
I've contemplated it, along with a proper mechanic shop. We'll see ☺️
milanmastracci bro you should definitely should look in to it! i live in Mississauga can you detail my 350z lol? 💰
Milan: Giving my car a...
Me: Giving your car away?
Milan: ...a complete makeover!
Me: Oh..
Boi Milan needs a cut bad😂
Dude preachhhh!!! This is the longest its been in over 10 years.. ✂️
Hey guy, I don't know if this is something you want to do but maybe you can look into it. I saw this person's page on Instagram who customizes OEM steering wheels. I saw the steering wheel for our car the 2008 Honda Accord coupe, It had carbon fiber, perforated red grips, d-shape sports bottom with red stitching. It's dope, I'm going to one soon. czd_emily is the Instagram page you can dm the guy for questions and prices. Check it out.
The worst part of detailing is when you find new dents and scratches.
Ughhh so true!! 😭
Now the real question... Can you say "Pre Primed Pad" 5 times fast?
LOL I have no chance! Red leather yellow leather!
I'm the 1K like Ayeeee! llol
Yeah buddy!! 🙌
Please do not spread incorrect information. You should NOT be applying anything on top of ceramic coating such as wax! Only a ceramic coating topper made for that specific purpose. if you apply Wax on top of a ceramic coating you are covering up the benefits of a ceramic coating such as self cleaning properties, high hydrophobic repelling and so on. Whoever told you Wax on top of Ceramic coating is wrong. Pick 1 or the other you should not mix the two or else its a waste of money.
I don't see it in the same way. If you apply a wax and the wax fills in scratches and acts similarly to a ceramic coating, I see it has done the job. It has offered protection and makes the paint look better. If the wax does wear off, you still have the durability and protection of the ceramic coating. Have you tried doing both?
Don’t top a ceramic coating with a wax, people.
Read the title partially and got scared u were guna give the car away.
LOL yeah I can see that!! My bad 😂
Why don't you PPF the car after you polish it
Because the body of the car has too many imperfections for PPF IMO.
