It’s always a good day when chemical guys post a new video!

Been following for a few years now and just discovered a new Detail Garage just a couple of miles from my home. The techniques and products really do work. It's not just editing tricks and hype. Each situation is different from individual rides, weekend warriors and professional detailer. Each has their budget and specific wants and needs. Bottom line for me is the products I've used WORK. And if you don't "waste" product, they can go a long way. Thanks all at Chemical Guys. A toda madre.
Watching ............. going to apply all the steps in this series to my car for first spring wash after nasty winter. Thanks! for all the great tips.
Glad it was helpful!

Thanks so much for being part of the Chemical Guys family!
Love these videos. Do you have any videos on products and use for brand new off the lot vehicles?
Hey! Check out this video.

Wouldnt the contaminates that you are folding into your clay be scratching your paint over time?
Do you do all this detailing right after you wash your car? And after your detail does the car need to be washed again?
can the pads be re-used? throw them in the washer/dryer? thanks
So once both sides are used in the 1/4 clay bar. How do we continue using it on more occasions? We do just re-roll it into a ball & make a new clay pay so the dirt on will not be there on the clay & we have a new clay service every time until it all seems brown full of dirt?
Chemical guys .. what is best method for washing micro fiber towels ? And the polishing pads?
If I have a micro fiber towel that has fallen on the floor I get rid of it from my detail pack
This is off topic of this video but can you use p40 after washing your car with extreme body wash and wax I find these two a very good combo they make my paint pop on my 2002 Tahoe!
Great combination!!
Missed opportunity -

Nice Hair!!!

What compound(s) should I use where I've used touch up paint to help it blend in? Like the paint matches obviously lol but there's that tiny bit of difference in the thickness
Hi there! It is fine to polish over touch up paint just pass over this area quickly.
Can I polish my vehicle if it has small rust spots? Scrapes?
What’s better. Clay bar or clay block?
whats the difference between the VSS & the V4 All in One? Trying to figure out what to get to polish the white Lexus. The paint has been neglected- no deep scratches just needs to be brought back to life. TIA
Do you have to clay bar the whole vehicle or just wherever you find it contaminated?
Hi Matt! It is best to clay the entire vehicle.
Also how do you polish more narrow areas on the vehicle ie side mirrors, top of the door, etc…
Hey! Try using a smaller pad and backing plate for tight areas.
Are the towels then washed in a washer machine? Do you use certain colors for certain things?
Hey! We recommend washing it with Microfiber Wash, it is a specialty detergent that cleans and restores microfiber. The advanced cleaning formula releases dirt, grease, and residue, leaving microfiber feeling and performing like new.
www.chemicalguys.com/microfiber-wash/microfiber-wash.html
Hey, Chemical Guys - should I touch up rock chips BEFORE I clay bar and polish? Or after? Its a black 2011 Camaro.
After. This way you have a clean surface so the paint can stick. After that, gently sand the spot on and around with 2000 and 3000 grit. Then polish over and you will hardly see anything anymore.
Hey! Using a clay bar will extract embedded contaminants from the rock chip. After allowing the touch-up paint to cure and harden, it can be color sanded with a fine grit sanding sheet and polished to blend the imperfection.
Im barely starting with the detailing. Quick question why did you use the white pad? Do you have to replace it everytime you add another compound?
Hi there! Change your combination of pad and chemical when refining the finish.
@@ChemicalGuys awesome thank you!
What's the best way to clean the polishing pads?
Hey! Use warm water and Polishing Pad Cleaner with a medium duty bristle brush to release spent product.
C3 and P4 need to be used together or you can just c3 by itself?
Hi there! C4 should be followed up with P4.
Does c4 and p4 have to be applied with a machine or can be done by hand?
Hi there! C4 and P4 can be applied by hand however machine polishing will achieve the best results.
👍👍
Happy detailing!
What is the differences between Wipe Out and Clean Slate and when do you use each?
Hi David! Start your detail with Clean Slate to remove old layers of glaze, sealant and wax. Use Wipe Out after polishing just before applying coatings.
@@ChemicalGuys does Wipe Out also remove / strip ceramic coatings or left over glazes / wax residue?
Can I put Clean Slate in my foam cannon?
Absolutely!
So I have my 2017 Suburban never been polish wax or nothing it's Metallic black the hood looks rough like grayish I want to bring my paint back to life like when I first got it new. How should I start and what products should I get to do all this.
Hi Hugo! After washing and clay barring the vehicle, try a test spot using an Orange Hex-Logic Pad and V36 Cutting Polish to restore depth and gloss.
So i've got my Chemical Guys waterless wash, I'm waiting on my delivery of my medium clay bar and clay luber, and I also have the spray banana wax. Would this be the proper order of operations?
Absolutely!
@@ChemicalGuys Thank you! I also have some deeper scratches in my metalic paint (from stupid improper use of an ice scraper).. Is the clay bar safe to use over those scratches?
Hi Guys, have you anything about wrapped cars?
Hi there! Check out Wrap Detailer to maintain your wrap.

Hey what can you do of you don't have a garage to do a clay bar
Hi there! Try to work in a shaded area when the surface of the vehicle is cool to the touch.
Will clay baring remove road grim like tar?
Hi Danny! Yes, using a clay bar will extract stubborn grime.
@@ChemicalGuys Awesome!! thanks!
Can you reuse pads? If so how?
Hi there! Yes, use Polishing Pad Cleaner to maintain and revive your pads.
After the clay , do you have to polish ??
Hey! If polishing is necessary it should be performed after the clay bar process or move on to apply coatings.
Otherwise we dont use the clay bar??
As beginner which one should i used? The c4, v36 or vss? I am so confused with options😂😂😂
Hey! Check out this video to determine which product works best for you.
ua-cam.com/video/V3QWj2y3BpA/v-deo.html
@@ChemicalGuys i bought worth $350 worth of your product and every time i watch video another product is used😁😁😁 i am ending up buying all the products.😂😂😂 not including the polisher kit😁. Thanks for the video.
6:04 Ha Giggity
😄
He says “one pass”, but he puts a second application for a second pass.
Don't forget to use protection!
Happy detailing!
Can you clay bar outdoors in the sun
Used a 🧱 to wash your car 😂 looked like he wanted to laugh
😃
Would the processes in this video ruin a PPF wrapped car?
Hi Chris! Thanks so much for watching. We do not recommend machine polishing PPF.
@@ChemicalGuys thank you, subbed and liked!
Is it ok to just use the p4 with the green pad and not using the C4. Thanks
Absolutely, that is perfectly fine!
What’s better clay bar or mitt?
Hey Edwin! Both are great options for removing embedded contaminations. A traditional clay bar is great for contouring and fitting into small areas whereas the Mitt covers a larger surface area and is more user friendly in regards to maintenance. If the Mitt is dropped it can be cleaned and reused, if a clay bar is dropped it will need to be replaced.
