    An advantage to wiping as you go like Yvan is doing, is that you are using differently muscles, postures to assist in changing up and not aching later. Additionally the machine isn’t being overworked if that was a potential issue.

    I’ve applied the Stack (8/3y) on a New Toyota Crown (full paint, windows and wheels) a few weeks ago. Yesterday, I was able to finish the 2 coatings on a Honda Pilot (full paint, windows and wheels). I was not able to the Stack on the Pilot. I did the 8y in the front half and the 3y on the back, roof, windows and wheels. I think I stretched quite well. It came out great. We will see the effects of the difference in protection. That’s all right! For $220 I did 2 full vehicles.
    The only thing I would suggest is to get the vials in glass bottles, rather than metal ones. It helps to see how much liquid you have left. Thank you!

      @@diydetailofficial 😂 I know. Thank you! But just like medicine, the glass usually is thick enough. Besides, by paying $150 on a 2” bottle, I treat that as a diamond. It is just an opinion, I think the benefit of knowing the level of liquid is greater than the risk of dropping. Thank you! You guys have a great product!!

    Great video. As a DIY person sadly I can’t justify the full range of DIY detail so I’m gonna try this with what I got. My supplier has the 2 main ones, rinsless and gold standard but I’m gonna get Rupes yellow as that seems like the best alternative. I’ve got Gyeon panel prep already and will use Soft99 Fusso wax. I can’t wait to try this. The only issue is with myself being clumsy I’ll prob do more damage dropping the sander off the roof than scratching it polishing. No tape is really helpful but may in some areas if I feel I might catch an edge.

    I would love to see a video covering the topic of your Ceramic Gloss in a more comprehensive manner. I want to see; how do you care for the pad before, during and after the Ceramic Gloss treatment, so the pad is dry and not soaked in any liquids prior to Ceramic Gloss on the pad, does this method also work on glass and anything else you can expound upon. This would be awesome because I want to try this but have some reservations about doing so. Thanks guys!!!!!
