This is about as far from a "disaster detail" as you could ever expect to find on UA-cam. This lovely white Porsche Cayman is impeccably cared for and maintained. That said, it spent the last three days with me in hopes of elevating it to the next level. After pouring fourteen hours into the project, I am feeling quite confident that I acheived my goal of getting this car to a perfect 10. The car was put through a number of processes that culminated with the application of two layers of UHS ULTRA 90% SiO2 coating by TAC SYSTEM. It was nice to have the luxury of time to complete each and every step showcased in the video. As always, I dropped all kinds of links below including all the soundtrack info ⤵️

I see the notification, I open youtube, I like the video, I watch the video. Thank you for that relaxing moment.
You have supported me during many of my passions. I appreciate you my friend.
My lockdown routine...drinks, cigars..walking the dog and RAD-TV..
I guess it could be worse! 🤘
41:09 of awesomeness. Why would you not stick around?
It’s very hard to make bright white look like glass. But you have. Well done. 👍🏻
Thanks Wayne. I like white, but sometimes it does seem limiting in terms of capturing the gloss on camera.
As a P.S., I have found another tune that I have added to my “Easy” playlist thanks to you. First, I found “Flow” on one of your videos and now I have found “Under the Moonlight”. Nice choices and Apple radio had both.👍🏻
Great timing to stop and relax right now. Busy and stressful day at the office today! Thanks, Rick!
Glad I was able to bring your day some chill vibes.
Rick, you have the astonishing gift to change my opinion regarding cars. When I started this video I was like: "Cool Cayman, not beautiful enough for me to buy and drive though". Now that I finished watching however, I am in love with its shape and overal aesthetic. I think that is a powerful testament to the quality of both your detailing work and filming/ post-production skills.
I appreciate that Jaap. In fact, I feel the exact same way. By the time the owner came to pick his car up, I had fallen in love with it.
It's fun to see different types of cars and how they are put together.I don't see Porsches, they are very beautiful and complex. Very satisfying to see you care for the car!
Thanks so much. This car was immaculately designed and the owner truly appreciates and cares for it.
And another little White Porsche 😍
I just go with the flow...
Круто! Профессионал! Руки золотые!
Спасибо за отличную поддержку
Jeez Rick..........there's me getting ready to take the boy to school this morning and then this video pops up on my UA-cam......Oh well....he's not late very often! 😂😉
One of the toughest colours to work with and once again you're craftsmanship has shown that anything can be achieved. I love your work, your video editing, your attention to detail, the background music...I love it all. Fantastic job as always Rick! From Bournemouth in the UK thats a solid 10 out of 10 from me! All the best mate and keep up the truly exceptional work 💪👷👏👍!
Sorry (not sorry) for messing up your morning routine my friend! Tell the boy's teacher that I'm a teacher. They'll forgive him! 🤘😂
Porsche: There is no substitute.
Rick and Rad Garage: Detailing excellence!
You're far too kind, Ron! 🙏
Thank you so much for taping this coating! Ive used all of the other Coatings from Tac Systems except this and the 100% kit. Great job as always Sir and keep the clips coming!
This was my first experience with TAC SYSTEM coatings, and I was happy with the way it applied. I do like capturing the coating application process in video. It is so soothing to me.
The Cayman is a perfect 11 Job well done
I’m looking forward to seeing what the owner says. He picks it up in a few hours from now.
After hours of detailing the result when you finish has no price.outstanding video Rick
I agree. There is so much satisfaction that comes with standing back and looking at the fruits of all your labour.
Some people says that paints is Art. Art for me is Rad washing a car. Amazing video again
I agree 100%
That’s a great compliment. I do focus on the art of the detailing process as well as the scientific part, but the artistic approach looks so good on video! 👌
@@RADGarage do you have someone filming behind you? The way the camera move is awesome
@@cjarchie9745 All me. No help.
That Adam’s foam has serious dwell time. Pretty sure you got that baby to 10 or 11/10!
Thanks. I will always have a place for the Mega Foam. It’s just good stuff.
Nice job Rick. The video should be called Rick Perfection !
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👋
That has a great ring to it!
Beautiful gloss, but as I know only too well, white doesn’t reflect as easily as the dark colours.
Yet, you can still see when a white car’s paint has been meticulously massaged.
Awesome!!
Yeah, white doesn’t exactly rock my socks, but this one is pretty glossy. Maybe my most thorough exterior detail to date.
So I shad to watch it for a second time! Apparently the first time wasn’t enough!!!! 👍👍👍
I aim to create videos that can be enjoyed more than once, so this is awesome!
MASTER of detailing videos!
I don’t know about that, but I appreciate your kind words. 🙏
Hello Barbara, we missed you last weekend
Amazing video Rick! I cannot think of a better way to unwind after work.
Glad to do my part to spread chill detailing vibes around the world.
Absolutely stunning Rick! It's hard to make a white car "POP" with gloss. You have far exceeded that. That car just glistens..... You did an amazing job buddy. 10+ Cayman. The Cayman is one of my favorite current Porsche's. I dare say that shape is more special than the coveted 911. These cars will certainly be collector's items at some point in the future. Especially after the RAD Garage treatment.
It is just a sublime design. So easy to find beautiful angles.
OMG that Foam!!! 🍒 awesome combo with that new pressure washer!!
Yes. The Mega Foam was LOVING my new pressure washer. What a satisfying combo to work with!
Always love a UA-cam notification for rad garage 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
I’m happy to hear that! 🤘
22:20 here In Spain, best plan for a Wednesday night. Ben&Jerrys Ice cream nd a new Rad Garage production. 10/10
I love the sound of that! 🍦🤘
Amazing content and soundtrack ,love the format. Keep these coming Rick. Can’t wait for the next one. You are one hardworking guy 👍
I’ll do my best. It’s getting easier as the weather is sort of resembling Spring.
Beautiful, Rick!! The Porsche Cayman is a gorgeous car! Man, I wish we lived closer to each other because I’d absolutely get you to detail my truck, no doubt. Keep those videos coming 👌
You’d have to bribe me pretty heavily to do a truck!! 😆
@@RADGarage 🤣… it’s a nice truck!! I keep it clean but it needs a few minor paint corrections and then a good ceramic coating. No inside detailing necessary.
You have watched enough of my videos that you should be able to do it yourself by now!
Awesome video Rick 👍🏼
I look after a white Taycan and must admit, I really think white suits Porsches!
Yes, they do look mighty regal in white!
Think I’m gonna go watch that again! 😍
Fill your boots!
*Rick, did you know that you have best detailing channel?)*
*Video as always amazing!*
Thanks. I do feel like my videos have a distinct quality that separates them from the typical videos you see, but I have great appreciation for the variety of approaches you can find on UA-cam.
Your channel is a 10. Thanks for sharing another amazing project and video.
I appreciate that very much! 🙏
Dare I say the end product is a 11/10? Another solid video. Woke up early and watched this to relax to prepare for a crazy day at work.
I won’t disagree!
Hi Rick. Another awesome RAD production. Thanks so much and very much appreciated
I’m just happy people enjoy this stuff! 🤘
I so appreciate your work. Thanks heaps. Looking forward to the next video
Always a great watch. Awesome work Rick and way to take it to perfection!
I appreciate that, Fred. It came out really nice.
I really needed this after the week I’ve had. Thank you for this amazing content.
Glad it helped your week!
Absolutely love your organization. Outstanding job on this slick looking Porsche!
Thanks so much. I do like having things well organized and at the ready!
Just what I needed after a long day of work. Thanks for what you do!
I’m glad my mid-week video drops are working for people!
Rick WOW as always perfect work, top music top videography I'm running out of adjectives to describe your videos😄 there's only one thing wrong You don't deserve the 26800subscribers, you deserve at least 1 million subs. Well and send more videos 💪💯🇵🇹
Thanks Henrique. Maybe one day I’ll hit the million-mark. Until then, I’m just enjoying each project as it comes. Stay well my friend. 🤘
@@RADGarage Rick do your thing people enjoy it . I unsubscribed from another popular detailer because it was so obvious he was being sponsored, and I was getting tired of all the product plugs and that's not what I was looking for in detaing videos. More techniques are what I want ro see.
There is certainly a wide variety of detailing video approaches out there. I think I have found my niche. I will say this, companies seem to paying a lot more attention to my channel but I just don't enjoy doing reviews. I would much rather just show the process and let the camera show the various products and tools in action.
@@RADGarage that's an approach I can understand .
It's a competitive market with a lot of top quality products. Follow the instructions and you won't be disappointed.
Gosh, I enjoyed that Rick! Thank you!
I’m pleased to hear it. 🙏
Once again, wow!
Thanks Mark. This was a very satisfying project for me.
Beautiful excellence. Epic job, Rick! 👍🏼👍🏼
Glad you liked it, Tim!
Beautiful!!! Thas10!! Nice job!!
Thanks. I tried my hardest!
Always a joy to watch your content. Another excellent detail with first-rate videography. Thanks for the hard work it takes to share these with us.
Happy to know the work is appreciated. Because, it IS work! 😂 💪
Another beautiful video and the Porsche turned out really nice. Thank you for the camera work and your attention to detail.
My pleasure Neil. As another viewer so aptly put it, “Quality over Quantity”. That’s my ethos.
Lovely how you make that paint glisten while polishing. Well done !
Thanks. I was highly impressed with the polishes used in this project.
Rick, my man, this video was Dope!!! You really out did yourself on the Porsche. White is a hard color to make, "pop" but the car looks like it is a "wet finish!" This is definitely in your top 3 videos...at least it is for me! Thanks and shine on!!
I always enjoy hearing that my video production is improving in the eyes of viewers. I’m certainly trying my best. I’m having some challenges with lighting, but hopefully I can sort them out. Thanks for the encouragement!
I just left the # 💯 like. Great work and great video!
That’s the most important “like”! 🙏🙏🙏
Wow, Rick! This is your best one yet (and I've watched them all). It's just so therapeutic and calming to watch this after a hard day at work. Thanks so much for making my day.
I try to keep pushing the videography, but I spent way too much time filming this one. Worth it in the end but I’m so exhausted. Nothing happening this weekend but an off-camera wash of my SQ5 which has been outside for a few straight days.
I like how dedicated you are to the art.
Thanks for recognizing that. I make that my focus. It’s what I enjoy most about it all.
It’s a 10 now‼️ Nice job👍✌️☮️
Thanks so much!
Always great and the best in car washing and polishing Worth 1,000,000,000 subscribers And when I buy a car, I don't take it to the car wash But I wash it alone myself in my house and I adhere With all your wonderful steps in washing the car What you saw in your videos on your amazing channel 👌
Your enthusiasm for my videos is very much appreciated. I hope you will enjoy caring for your car the way I do. Take care.
Beautiful job Rick! On a beautiful car.
There was an abundance of beauty in this one! Thanks for tuning in.
The attention to detail, the passion you show for car detailing, the songs in tune with every step you take makes me watch your videos with great pleasure. Greetings and good luck from Romania !!
That’s a wonderful compliment. I take great pride in my work so to know it is appreciated makes me feel amazing.
Like a mini movie with all the great editing.Deserving of way more subs man!😎👍
Thanks. It’s fun to translate this work to video.
Car looks excellent Rick! Great video!
I appreciate it Mike. This one took a lot out of me no need a few easy washes next!
I thoroughly enjoyed this video. Definitely a feast for the eyes. Your videos are next level
I enjoyed this project very much. Such a classy car. Thanks for watching it.
Amazing as always, relaxing watch also, cheers from croatia🇭🇷✅😎
Thanks for tuning in!
Another awesome video and detail
After watching several videos I am hooked the detail you do and the high resolution video is awesome
Keep up the good work
Thank you for your videos
I am now a subscriber
I’m glad to hear you like what you see. I find the entire detailing process visually appealing so capturing that in my videos is a fun and rewarding challenge for me.
Just love watching your video
Glad to hear that. 🙏🤘
@@RADGarage thank for reply it me lot to me and my brother
You out do yourself in every video, yet another RAD video. Amazing work on the editing... and the car
It's killing me Mike. I want to make more simple videos with a static tripod, but then I wouldn't be as proud and satisfied when watching them afterwards. I'm doomed! 🤘
@@RADGarage yes you are
@@RADGarage if you want simple watch the geek, you want RAD we watch you and Chromatic... those 2 are RAD
Absolutely amazing and relaxing detail video buddy! Love your content! Thanks for you recent support on the channel!
My pleasure. I love it when I discover a new channel belonging to cool car people! 🤘
Rick, unbelievable work as always. You were certainly able to bring this up to near perfection 👌🏻 keep it up buddy
🙏🙏🙏
You doing an awesome job with videos and detailing keep up the good work
Thanks man. I’ll continue to produce work I feel adds value to the UA-cam detailing community.
@@RADGarage Quality not Quantity !!!!!!
Oh man what a treat!!! I saved this video for dinner time. This was another perfect video in my opinion. Beautiful car, music on point, cinematic footage, and dope editing.
Thanks. I was very happy with the way this all came together. The owner was ecstatic with the video and the results!
Definitely made her a 10 looks fantastic and your camera skills are over the top if utube ever gave out awards for best video and editing you would come out on top I’m sure I can speak for many we enjoy every minute of your videos. Thanks Rick 👊🏻 well done. 👍🏻👍🏻🇨🇦
I know of a few other content creators that would be in the running for that award, but I'm just happy to be nominated! 🤘
Ahhh. Finally finished.. what a great video man! You absolutely pushed that thing into the phenomenal stage. 👍white is sooo hard to make pop but you did a great job. You deserve a ice cold pop after this.
Thanks big guy. You know how much work these projects take, so it's nice to have you recognize the hustle it took. I need a few days off to recoup now! 🥱
@@RADGarage absolutely man.. time to kick back and get ready for the next 💪
fantastic ....super job
Thank you. I loved that project from start to finish.
@@RADGarage a great job I'm very passionate like you ... I love cars no matter what year it is ... I love detail .... your garage is perfect ... cheer up ... I don't miss any of your videos ... me I also have a you tube channel little by little ...
Thanks for the support 🙏
You killed it. Looks fantastic. Had that identification car. Great production. Very well done
Thanks RTS. I really enjoyed working on this little rocket. I bet you had a good time with yours. What are you driving now?
@@RADGarage Back into a 991 911 2015 and loving it. Will incorporate some of your techniques as I bring it up to standard. Subscribed so looking forward to more great content.
Man, everyone seems to have a 911 except me! LOL Great to have you as a new sub. I have a new video coming this weekend.
Nice job 👍
Thanks for the visit
Amazing , looks like glass really cool , and awesome editing as usual ;)
Thanks Luis.
@@RADGarage you welcome , i see your videos i hit the like button :) , also great playlist
beautiful job my man credit where it's due simply stunning .
Thanks. I appreciate your kind words.
@@RADGarage rick i gotta ask you would you recommend rinse less wash cos i'm really dubious about doing it on my own car many thanks mick.??
I've done many of them on my Audi. It's got super hard paint and I've never had a problem, but now that I have the ability to manage water year-round in my garage, I don't anticipate ever doing it again. It is an ok method, but it just doesn't get in to the tight gaps and crevices the way a proper water wash does. Some paints will show the negative effects of a rinseless no matter how careful and meticulous you are.
@@RADGarage many thanks rick you have as always been very helpful many thanks Mick.
Car looks fantastic 👏! Just as I was asking myself what wash mit you were using, there it was shown on the screen!!!!
It is such a nice mitt to work with. I highly recommend!
It’s really a nice car,if I can have a Porsche,I will follow your steps to enhance and protect it.
I hope we BOTH have Porsches in our lives in the future!
Salut Rick, magnifique vidéo comme toujours👍👍
Je jure que les compliments semblent encore plus doux en français! 🙏
Rick.. how can I turn a 8 into a 10 well you turned into a 12 beautiful work & when white cars done well they look amazing like the one you produced well done sir 👍
Thanks Neil. Pretty nice to have such a beautiful car to play with.
spot on as always Rick
Thanks my friend.
@@RADGarage even the sound track is soothing and relaxing.... gold standard production and I eagerly await the next one
I have one dropping this weekend. I'm very satisfied with the soundtrack for this one!
Yet Again amazing video good job Rick!
Thanks Chris. I appreciate you taking the time to view them.
@@RADGarage I spend the night watching your magic. Also analyzing each and every step. Plus your music is epic!
@@_CaliCeramics_ I love that. Feel free to follow my partnering music producers! Links at the bottom of the description section.
@@RADGarage I’ve been following some already, great artists.
You have no idea how happy that makes me. I have been fortunate to have met some amazing musical artists. It's great I can bring their work some level of exposure.
Rick, awesome work as always! Any advice on dirty/muddy door speaker grilles? I know people say spray cleaner into interior brush, but that doesnt seem to work either.
I squirt a little air from air compressor. Just a little to dislodge whatever has become stuck in the grille vents.
Amazing! Can you get my Cayman dialed in? 😁
For sure!
Another amazing Rad Garage detail on an equally amazing car! It wasn't a full-on paint correction, just a polish, correct? Were there just light scratches/swirl marks that needed touching up? Awesome camera work, as usual! Stay safe!
Yes, that’s correct. 80% of the paint was blemish-free so I did a thorough jeweling of the paint. There were a few spots that required some minor correction as well. It’s pretty much flawless now.
Sweeeeet!
Thanks Nick! 🙏
If that's not a 10 I don't know what is. 👏🏻
Thanks Mark. I was pretty proud of my results.
After watching my team panathinaikos i needed something to relax. 👍
My local NHL hockey team is stressing me out too! 😂
So a few questions, your honest opinion of the AR now that you’ve had some time with it? Impressions of the IK bottles? Last, are the latest gyeon products a significant improvement over previous versions? I’ve used them before but always had a hard time justifying the price when other products seem to get the job done at a lower price point.
Videos are always on point. I steal a lot of your wash methods.
Here are my 💯 honest answers:
1. The AR has exceeded all my expectations. It has elevated my enjoyment of detailing to new heights and I absolutely love it.
2. IK trigger bottles are ok. I won’t be getting one for every product the way others seem to be doing. I use one for foam touch ups, but it’s just a trigger spray bottle. I prefer the OEM bottles for some reason.
3. I am loving the Gyeon line. I don’t really factor the cost of a product into my overall enjoyment and satisfaction of my products. That sounds absurd but I’m being honest. If I was churning out project after project my attitude would be different. This is why I don’t do reviews. I don’t necessarily look for the best performing product at the best price point. I just like using products that feel good and leave me satisfied and my Gyeon products are ticking those boxes just fine.
Be I utifull job!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks!
What product and kind of pad are you using on the tail lights? Are you just polishing or taking out scratches? Love the videos. Thanks Scott
That's going back a while, but I am fairly certain I was using the Adam's One-Step Polish/Compound with a Rupes white finishing pad to take out the very minor swirls in the tail lenses. I find scratches come out of plastic lenses quite easily so no need to be overly aggressive.
Love to see you bring it to the next level! What are your thoughts on the Geon wheel and tire cleaner compared to brake buster? And what kind of polisher do you recommend for a beginner that wont break the bank?
I am not a huge fan of brake buster. I used it only once and found it weak. The Gyeon Wheel Cleaner is quite strong. I am told you can use the Gyeon Tire Cleaner on tires and wheels if the wheels aren’t too dirty.
For a good polisher, don’t overthink it. Just get one you can comfortably afford. I started with a 3” and 6” Griots machine. They were great.
@@RADGarage Awesome, thank you so much! I wish you all the best and will continue to support you in any way I can!
OMG dat foam son
Always my favourite part.
Finally get to watch! Baby napping, Tito in hand. Let's see if you were able to impress me. 🎬
I am impressed
This one was a lot of work. Glad you enjoyed it.
@@RADGarage I can't imagine what goes into editing videos. Your artistry is definitely appreciated.
Только хотел спросить ,почему кроме ауди мало других марок автомобилей и вот porsche,еще бы bmw,и вообще будет прекрасно).
Я просто чищу машины, которые приносят мне друзья
I like video wow wow wow
I was proud of how well that Cayman came out.
Finally, a chance to sit down a watch another masterpiece by Rick. Thank you for sharing. By the way, how did you like working with TAC System?
Glad you enjoyed it. I enjoyed the TAC SYSTEM UHS. I easily laid two coats of it with no issues at all. I did like that the flash time is pretty quick. I will have to see how it performs when subjected to a maintenance wash to know if it was all worth it!
@@RADGarage Hi Rick, if you don’t mind, Can you send me your email address so I can send you a photo or two?
radgarageyyc@gmail.com
Hey Rick, what is your wheel brush. It's not the same as the description. Keep up your great work!
Oh, I messed up the link but it is the Speedmaster Pro by Daytona but it is now discontinued. EZ Detail has an identical one but it’s blue. I have a couple of them as back up.
@@RADGarage Thanks, is always out of stock from carzilla :P
@@elkamikaze69 Uh oh, I may have bought his last two! 😳
Where did you get your red wheel brush from? I can't find anything like it online. And thank you for these therapeutic videos!
While I'm at it, where did you get the smaller light colored wood brush that you use for small gaps?
There is a blue brush by EZ Detail that is identical to the red one you see me using in this video. The red one is super hard to find. I think it is extinct actually. The blue one is listed on some sites, but I notice it is now hard to come by. Here's the link to the blue one: carzilla.ca/products/go-ez-wheel-brush?_pos=3&_sid=9780d75cd&_ss=r&ref=RADGARAGEi
The other brush you mention is an ancient Griot's Garage boar's hair brush I bought many many years ago. I have no idea if it is still available. Sorry, I'm not much help. Some of my stuff is just not available any longer.
@@RADGarage Your help is spot-on. I found the exact same blue brush on amazon along with the smaller ones. The blue one was sold out on the link you mentioned. These are definitely better quality brushes. Thanks!
💯👏👏
🤘
For the plastic trim, do you use Perl straight up or diluted 1:1?
I prefer using it straight up. A little goes a long way on a foam applicator.

I have a question about the industry of auto detailing and not your work specifically- Does the foam bath really do that much to capture contaminants? I use a foam cannon too, but sure seems like we go through a lot of soap quickly... Seems like a real benefit to the manufactures.
This debate has raged on for years. I find the pre-wash foam stage is instrumental in flushing out the dirt and grime that hides in the tight gaps. When I do a bucket wash without a foam stage, I find dirt gets blown out of the gaps with the Master Blaster car dryer which doesn't happen when I perform the foam and pressure wash stage. I only use 100ml of foam each application, so I don't think that is an unreasonable amount of soap to use. Plus, I just enjoy that process so much.
It's probably not a problem on a Porsche, I don't know but how do you usually deal with rusting rotors? Oh and... Outstanding job there my friend!!
Oh, the rotors on this particular car drove me crazy. After the wash, they were so rusty I decided to take it for a little whip down the street to brake the rust off. When I pulled back in the garage, the wheel barrels were caked in red rust residue and so was the car! I had to quickly use the CarPro Eraser to clean everything up. I couldn't believe how nasty the dust was. I wish every car had carbon ceramic brakes!
How do you spray those bubbles with the canon into wheels?
Sorry, I’m not quite sure what you are asking.
Hi Rick, Im about to do my first ceramic coating on a friends vehicle. He doesnt really care about his finish on his vehicle, he said practice on mine any advice on my first coating?
Sounds like a stand up dude. What coatings are you considering?

Go for it. I love them.
@@RADGarage yes it came out great! Looked under led lighting didn’t see any high or low spots. Then again, could be some flaws but I didn’t see any and I am very happy with it, as is my friend.
