Shop Talk: (In Depth) Low down on Buffs - Evan's Detailing and Polishing
Вставка
- Опубліковано 26 лип 2024
- This is a remake of the original break down of Buffs video. Evan goes in depth on the difference between the number of plies in a buff, the types of fabric, fabric treatments and the pack of the buff. There are so many different styles and variations that choosing your buff can be confusing. We highly recommend you find the style and kind that you like and stick with it. Building a pattern and a style around the kind that you like to use is one of the more important key factors in polishing. I know the video is long but there is a ton of information packed into this video. I hope you learned something and enjoyed what you see. Thanks for watching.

I came across your videos 3 years ago and I thought I’d like to give that a try! Went to my local peterbilt, got a few zephyr buffs and rouge bars, threw it on my trusty harbor freight grinder, and started polishing on the truck I was driving at the time… I was hooked the first time I got some shine to come thru. 3 years later I still refer to your videos for advise and tips, your truly an inspiration Evan! Keep killin the game 🤘🏼
Thank you! I truly appreciate you watching the videos and supporting my channel. Happy to hear the videos are helpful.
Now I understand a lot more about these buffs thanks man

So thanks for your honesty and you really spend the time to show the difference between everything. I really appreciate it. Thanks

Another banger video 🤙 Never be sorry man, Sharing your learnings is so appreciated no matter the quality of the filming!!! I work in the oil and gas industry and they are heavy into Safety in Australia. Is there any chance you could do a video on your learnings, experiences or heard of others bad experiences where polishing can go wrong ? 21.57 jam packed video of quality information, You know we watched all the way to the end!!! Thank you
Sorry for the late response but I have posted a video on this topic if you haven't seen it already please check it out.
Evan I’m sure you would know but on the skinny red buff for Peterbilt step’s you also mentioned using it for motorcycle finned cylinder head’s! I was taught by a shop teacher back in the 70’s you should not polish the finned head or cylinder port’s unless the engine is water cooled that they are rough to be able to catch wind for cooling? As I said you probably know this! But if it’s on a show bike that doesn’t run long enough to get hot it probably wouldn’t matter.
Polished stuff always gets hotter. I know lots of guys that polished theirs but they can overheat.
Love your video's i'd enjoy takeing a course I think you've trained a couple companies from my province Canada Quebec.
Yes I have. I worked with lavage esthetique and groupe chrome.
Awesome video Evan Do you have any advice for polishing in the humidity and heat??
Use drier compounds or try to get out of the heat and into a building.
10 and 12" wheels are always my go to ive yet to burn a grinder up yet but i maintenance them frequency. great video btw Evan, i used to always run a matchless orange/yellow buff but ive switched to there blue buff for cutting recently and it cuts quite a bit cleaner than a orange or a orange/yellow just a bit slower of a cut but i find its worth it since you save time on the color and finish steps. i never knew buffs from california where water dipped makes sense to me now why my zephyr buffs i used to use where terrible.
Yeah regulations on air quality out there keeps them from chemically treating them.
Do you have a video that explains each proff color to each block and how to use it?
This is what I’ve been looking for. I’m JUST getting into this. I bought a kit from Amazon and I want to learn. You do classes ? I’m in min Minneapolis. IM guessing you’re in like Arizona lol.
I am in Wisconsin and I do offer classes both in person and online. You can access my online class from here. If you would like more information you can email me Evan@goshineon.com. Thanks for watching! Welcome to the world of polishing.
Which buffs do you recommend for smooth headache racks? Hasn’t seen polish in a year or longer, pretty rough. Just need it to look decent and trying to avoid the zebra lines that I keep getting. I started with a yellow buff and brown bar.
Zebra lines come from overlap and pressure issues. Doesn't really have anything to do with the buff itself honestly. Not sure if this makes sense but I'll have some videos this winter explaining it.
Thank you for the fast response. Any advice on how to fix them? Recutting with the same buff made them a little less noticeable but they’re still visible. Do you think using a stiffer buff or Should I sand with 600 and recut and try to take more time and be more consistent?
@@jasen0909 Then you need to work on better pressure and overlap to match.
Yeah, it’s a clients and it looks terrible since I buffed on it. It was bad before but now it looks worse. Kinda stressed out because I’m having a hard time fixing it.
I ended up going back over everything, focused on my pressure and the overlapping. Took my time and it turned out much better. Thank you for the input.
Some time next week we need talk to you about buying your products
sounds great
Hi i need the addres for polisch my rims
We are located in Chilton, WI
Mr Steger, can you please tell me how to get the cloudiness out of billet aluminum radiator overflow tanks? I have 2 on my f150 Harley Davidsom edition show truck and for the life of me i cannot polish them with wool or foam without them getting cloudy, PLEASE, PLEASE, tell me how and what i need to buy from you to polish them mirror shiny. Thanks.
Are you the one that emailed me? Sometimes it is just the quality of the metal and you can't get a perfect mirror.
@@EvanStegerMetalPolishing ok. thanks.
I have a question for you. I use an orange and brown, and I have a green with my green. Now my question is why does my green leave a lot of black residue? I raked the buff and it still did it. Can u help. Thank you
What brand of compound are you using? Could be a long list of reasons why it is turning black. Green is a pickier compound. If the metal is pitted and not smooth it will turn black. Humidity or temperature can also be a factor. Applying too much or not enough compound can be an issue.
Not using renegade anymore Evan?
No sir.
Renegade fucking sucks
@@markhutchinson4222 why do you say that? Only asking because I’m completely new to polishing and was actually just about to place a large order with renegade...
@@bobbyfetters8485 one because Renegade is low-quality don't give a flying fuck about their customers if you don't believe me ask Evan
