Shop tour is always good to let us know how repair process is done through there. I am hoping you can share more thought and experience how to mix the colour to get better colour matching.
What I find amazing is that 50 years ago it seemed like we had less issues than currently happening with all of the fancy upscale products and tools you use today! I'm even including the beginning use of Imron and other 2 stages! I know you try to make the cars as nice as possible but I'm sure they aren't any nicer than the show cars I along with others produced!
What you’re saying about pushy reps is so spot on! I work in the industrial spraying field and I bounce between 3 company’s on paint and sundries for pricing and quality reasons and every time they all ask why I’m using X company over them 🙄 does my head in!
Thanks for taking the time to share this Gunny, a very interesting video on your detailing bay I don't do much polishing so I find these videos very informative🙏👍John UK
That red is Sooo Amazing And that pj out of Booth is really nice. And i am totally with you The rupes are hyped. I use shine mate /flex/ le and love them. Usully i use rotary Not ex. With ex you can use alle the surfaces of the Pad.
Hey G-Man. I noticed we have Twinkie subscribers. Do you wanna do a Zoom interview with me where we interview each other about the goings on of each other’s side of the world?😉
Great video 💪, i think you should show how many times things " f**k up" because we all do . Know one is perfect in this job and learn off each other thats. why i watch your vids even at the age off 64
Nice update! i see the car in the bay is the 46V Soul red mica Mazda 3 or is it a CX-3? one of my favourite colours, but I heard its hard to paint this colour its a 3 stage pearl paint?
Hi Gunman, Enjoy your videos. Just my opinion here - setting up a pro detailing bay as you have, looks like a good pro move on the surface, but is really not a smart one, as you are located too close to the spray painting section of your workshop regards any cross contamination issues with any detailing products you may choose to be using. As you would be aware, the use of any silicone products would be strictly out for starters. I am a pro tradesman auto spray painter of 43 years standing, and the one thing i have learnt over that time is to keep any detailing activities as far away as possible from your spray painting workshop. That includes panel beating operations as well. Most shops i have worked in or for have failed to properly separate detailers and beaters. Contamination issues of any kind, are the painters worst nightmares. All the best, Greg from Brisbane.
Hello! I know why you are having such trubbles with the Rupes machine. You are using the Rupes polisher wrong. There is a big difference between the techniques of rotary and DA You are NOT supposed to press it at all. The machines are weighted down and are only supposed to be guided over the workable area. If you press them down they are designed to stop/stall the rotating so as to not risking cutting through the paint. It still polishes as its designed to do. This is a very common mistake made by people using rotary polishing techniques or from the old school detailers. The Rupes machin should then work completely fine if not better than the flex. The best is to actually talk to your Rupes rep in your area to show and guide you so you learn the correct techniques. And so you can explain your difficulties and problems woth them. The other ting is if you use the wrong pad. Da pads are thinner than rotary pads thicker pads increases pressure and can stop the rotating movement.

My finishing lighting tower can be adjusted to replicate 6500K natural day light down through the lower artificial ranges. Helps on panel matching
Super clean & nice shop!!

All your videos are great, really love your product reviews. What about the new walcom evo guns have you tried them yet?
@@maxmeyer74 thanks, I don't rate Walcom as a company or product to be honest
@@TheGunmanChannelthey haven’t sent the alluminio guns to you?
@@lukeowens3544 no mate
❤
Hi gunman where are you location
Definitely stick with 3M. Stay away from Milwaukee tools , they’re having issues with triggers and don’t want to cover it under warranty.
Mate your still good looking....lol
