@@christophervickers9685 Problem will be to pick some one , some place to do it. How do we know they will do all they say they will? We have to trust them, as there is NO way we can know whether they did all the steps in a complete manner....whether they put 2 coats of ceramic, or the 7 coats we paid for. I am absolutely willing to pay for a professional's time, so will stay away from the really cheap guys.....but, I don't want to get ripped off too. What to do ?
Nooo! Lost sound at 18:40-20:02. 😱 Best instructional video ever. The products and tools are introduced, providing reasoning and methods. The process is a labour of love if you DIY. I'd give up a day off for my car to look that sexy😍 15hrs labour + products does explain why professional detailing costs $$$.
This is the perfect video for a beginner like me. I needed something to do during the quarentine, so I will be following all your instructions to do my car and my mom's
Just did a full exterior with ceramic finish on my BMW. I recommend using demineralized, and finish detailing chrome and glass using a whiteboard eraser. It will tell you where the missed spots are, especially windshield. Cheers, great vid!
I am getting a 2020 corvette this month and i was thinking about doing this myself. after this video. nope.lol Lots of work. Looks like a good idea to have someone do it right. great video. Best i have seen on this subject.
Congrats on the new Vette! The C8’s are badass. Even new cars can need some paint correction from factory so factor that in as well. Thanks the support Adam!
Tom let me start by saying a huge thank you for making this video so easy to comprehend, explaining step by step the whole procedure. I will definitely use this knowledge on my wife's car which is a white Mitsubishi Lancer from the 1999 but it's color is exhausted. We live in Cyprus, the sunlight, the heat and the constant drop of dirt by the wind are a pain in the bottom for any car here and any paint job. Thanks to your excellent tutorial I will give some nice protection to the color. You're awesome !!!!
Finally someone who polishes the way I always learned to.. Also I'm glad you filmed the use of the IronX bottle. I use it as well but I keep getting the wrong spray top which doesn't give me a fine mist. Going to look into a different cap for my bottles.. So weird.
wow!! never thought took so much work to apply coating - now I know why it cost so much for it. think I'll just stick with low end car and let the rocks fly where they may!! lol
Wow!!! I thought the ceramic coating price was kind of insane at my local detailing place but after seeing the work I guess it is justified. Makes me wonder if I can DIY lol thx for the great informative video
Yea a lot of factors determine pricing for a coating. Mainly the coating used and how much paint correction needs to be done. Glad I can shed some light on the issue. Thanks for the comment and good luck if you choose to DIY!
The correction step it becomes a little bit harder if you use a quick detailer as lubricant, they are carnauba based so it lets a little protection, you need to use shampoo or clay lube and then rinse
Nice job. I got exhausted watching you. A good wash and clay bar, finished with a nice wax works for me. Thanks for your time and info. What does a detail shop charge for something like this? Has to be several hundred $$$.... And I bet they won't do everything you did. Impressive!
Hi, loved the video. Ive just started my detailing journey. So many products to choose from. Do you have to do it all in one day? Would imagine all the hard work would be ruined if the was dust in the wind overnight.
That’s great to hear! Definitely a lot of products but don’t get carried away and think you need all or the greatest products to do a great detail 👍. Coating the car id recommend doing the same day but paint correction you can do a little at a time as long as the car isn’t being used.
Awesome video! You got a sub, by far the best beginner friendly video I found. Question. How often do you need to fully detail and what’s needed for the in between maintenance? Thanks
Thank you and welcome to the channel. A ceramic coating will last a few years if maintained properly. I do a maintenance detail every 2 weeks. I have a video showing my process on an SQ5.
I am a type person who never liked a video on youtube other than for saving and finding it sooner, I am moving towards making my detailing store, and your video just blew me up... I liked I subscribed and I saved and I downloaded the video. ❤️❤️❤️ Just wow. You are great hope you read this message
Great video. Shame that the sound cuts out between 18:40 and 20:00 as I really wanted to hear those instructions about how to apply the Armour 9. Car looks amazing though mate, I'll give all of this a go eventually
Hi, excellent video and very detailed 😊 one of the best videos I've seen on it. BTW is it possible to do the full job over a course of a few days, ie compound a panel or two a day and also same with polishing and maybe wash it again the following day before starting the next panel or does it have to all be done in one go?
TheGmiah Thank you and that’s a really good question. I’ve actually never done that before but it’s probably best to complete it all same time so you have consistent correction throughout. However if you aren’t going to drive the car and it’s going to stay in a garage I don’t see why not. Maybe just use an IPA to re prep the panels.
Hello Tom, Hope you are doing good. This video is really motivating for a car loving person. My question for you is How long a ceramic coating last on the car paint surface with its glossy and shiny look in term of days,weeks, months or years?? Looking forward for your answer. Regards
Hey, so it all depends on how well you maintain it. If you are washing it properly with a ph balanced soap and using a ceramic topper it can last for years. The car will of course still get dirty but after washing it will have the shine and gloss again.
...mmm I detailed my friends white Camry that looked gray when I got it ... 2 washes and then I had to clay bar every inch of it three times , to remove all of the crap in the clear coat... two coats of wax applied by hand ( I don't own a buffer ) when I took it back to her - she cried and thanked me for repainting her car ! She didn't want to believe that I did not repaint it ... I only cleaned and waxed it and showed her the scratches in the old paint . So YES some times you might need to use the clay bar more than once to get it clean
Exactly, that’s the only thing I don’t like….that’s called click bait lying. Show a true before and after without doctoring the images to make the difference seem more dramatic than it actually is.
That might have been the best instructional video I’ve seen. Great job!
Thanks John! Hoping it can help some people.
Great video BUT an IPA does not remove the oils and fillers from the polishing products : proper bonding of the coating.
Grtz

nah he used a quick detailer to clay, not that clever if you gonna polish and apply a ceramic coating. Otherwise a solid video
Hi, can I do coating on new car, just by washing it first without doing all others? Thanks.

That was the most detailed video I've watched. Very helpful. 15 hours, it's very long journey. Congratulations.

Must have scrubbed the pavement as well!

Whiteboard eraser? Never heard of that. Can you explain?
Your vid was well made, including editing, sound, speech and cinematography. Oh, and of course content. Thanks for sharing.
Great tutorial! I really appreciate your detailing with patience. Wish you the best!
Thanks for sharing. I’m in the middle of all the steps so good to see I’m doing it correctly so far
