I'm a newcomer to your brand and channel. I really enjoy watching all your videos. Been binge watching for hours now, learned so much and all these small attention to details is an art. Never in my life i thought there's minor and major maintenace on coating, marring, orange skin etc. Now my OCD level has increased one step higher 😂 keep up the good works, will take a look more on your offerings and class.
Huge props bro, perfect editing, lighting, humor, audio mixing, etc. Loved the video and your detailing work
Even after 2 years this video blows away any of the other WaterMitt Monkey videos out there!
Like others said…awesome lighting, editing, planning, shot cycle & proof!
Well detailed video! Good work Osren!
Top of the line video. Thank you guys for taking the time to share the knowledge!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great video thanx bro. Just what I was wondering.
10/10 vid especially with all the edits keep it up bru!
Awesome video!!! Thank you!!!
Outstanding!
Absolutely perfect video.👏👏👏👏
Thank you. Hope it helped!
Great video thank you
nice and informative explanation.
Thanks man! Great video 👍
Glad you liked it!
Thank you so much for this video. I was one of many people who was lead to believe that I didn’t have to do anything with my ceramic coating. I’m from Australia where we have very hot summers with periods of rain. My car is covered in water spots. The roof has lost its hydrophobic qualities. I’ve been recommended to use Adam’s Water Spot remover. I’m about to give it a go and see how it turns out. Again, thanks for a great video.
Its a shortcoming of all coatings…leading to the side-effect of watermark stains if not frequently washed.
Abusing the coating with frequent usage of water mark removers and/or other chemicals will significantly affect the coating.
Hence…the huge market for spray-type products….to give the illusion that the original, partially coating is still “healthy”. Actually, after one year, the entire coated paintwork is just depending on the “life support” of these spray products to keep the “self bluffing” game alive.
Great video! Professional and concise. Keep up the great work! I even liked the screaming towards the end, funny.
Hey Vee Bee, thanks for the encouraging words!
This video is so well done I wish I could take my car to your shop!
Glad you enjoyed it!
The thumbnail image alone deserves a like! The freakouts are pure gold, you've got a fallback career in comedy! 😄 Nice informative video too
Thanks for the encouraging words!
Nice thanks for the video! Where can I get my hands on. Some 05A or 05x??
Pehhhhhh terbaikkk
Been searching for acid
Great video
Thanks!
Hi Osren, recently you just released the Luminous Automotive Swipe. Any plan in the future to release product related to water spot removal under the Luminous Series? I asked because CarPro and Gyeon brands have something like that.
Perfect tutorial videos don’t exi….. 🥵
who is this guy? cloning services required. What an awesome video / information. On a serious note, I just fucked up my new truck pain with hard water spots, and will probably have to take it back to get the ceramic corrected
Hey Monty, hope you get it rectified. If it is installed by a provider, best to obtain their help for warranty purposes.
Greatttt🥳
Wow I love this style of video. I’m a detail shop owner and I want to create some vids like this for my customers education on our products and services. Any helpful tips you can share? I don’t have much of a budget for a video guy
Hey Gregory! Thank you for the comment. 😁. Hmm IMHO there isn’t a right or wrong way to do a video, however be adaptive and adventurous to find the right way of presentation / content for the audience that you would like to engage. Also, if you are not enjoying the process, don’t do it. Contents can be forced out, but it’ll bare no soul and not so engage able with audience, I guess 😅. So have fun and good luck 😬
I can’t find the O5A on the site. Help please.
Excellent video. Just a quick question, how can we know if the ceramic coating is still on our car or not after i have removed the waterspots with a a product called Ecoclean DELETE?
Hey Hery, hydrophobicity is one of the indicators and easiest ways to determine. Beside this, color depth and stain resistance can be an indicator too.
that said, always check with your coating installer or manufacturer on their chemical resistance prior to chemically decontaminate a coated surface.
Great video! Little question: I have a black matte painted car (no wrap) with ceramic coating. Will those water spot removers damage my matte paint and what is the best method for a matte paint?
Hey geki2gek! I would go for 05X to remove water spots on your ceramic coated matte paint. However every coating may react differently to this cleaning solution so best is to check with the seller or installer of the coating you have.
Can you do a video on how you care for mitts, microfiber and cotton cloths after wash? do you throw them away?
Hey Joo02, thank you for your enquiry.
For microfibre and m/f mitt, it's washable and reusable after washes. It should last very long. Thereafter, air dry (avoid direct sunlight)
In terms of washing, we recommend liquid detergent, the same one we use for our daily wears. You may use hand to scrub or use a washing machine and gentle settings.
I trust the above helps! Thank you!
this is one very interesting topic, which a lot of non - car detailing enthusiasts don't know about. most of them says, coating, forever shiny. ahaha. Malaysia temp + hard water : die loh. ahahah. tq lah for the explanation bang. :)
Thanks a lot Yasir !! - Kenneth
@@OSRENOfficial Kenneth now fofular UA-camr lol
Takdelah bro 😂
I learned a lot ! 👍. I think carpro descale will make a great decon shampoo for coating !, ph acid for minerals. But still not available in France. I will do acidic shampoo pre-wash, then alkaline pre-wash, then manual wash with neutral ph shampoo. Would it be good like that? Is it really acidic then alkaline, or the reverse? thanks in advance
Hey Nico! I think what you mentioned is a good way to thoroughly clean the car and prep it for a polishing detail job. For regular maintenance however, maybe alkaline wash are not so coating friendly. But also depends on the grade of the coatings. Whether alkaline first or acid first, personally i don’t think it matters which comes first 😬
hey! awesome video as always. i have a question. i got my car ceramic coated and its first wash is due after 2 days. but unfortunately there was rain in my area and now my car has drops all over it and they also dried up on the car. i am worried whether this would damage the ceramic coating or leave water spots. should i really wait 2 more days for the first wash ?
Use a rinseless wash. The reason why there is a waiting time for it to be washed is to ensure the coating fully cures.
In this case rinseless wash doesn't expose it to water for a long duration of time that would mess with the curing. You could just rinseless wash(wipe) and dry immediately.
Just spent 2 days stripping the coating off my X3M. Absolutely hate the stuff now.
I love your detail videos and trying to learn your product. Can you tell me the name of your blue wool pad and where I can get it?
Thank you! The pad in the video is our Microfibre Cutting Disc. Available here:
e-store.osren.com/global/product/b-w-cutting-microfiber-disc/
@@OSRENOfficial so I can't get it on Amazon?
@@3rekoatskustoms929 It's not available on amazon, however if you are from the States, the fulfillment will be carried out by our respective dealer in United States
Where do we get this in Sydney? It seems to be the only product that doesnt just take out fresh water spots but older ones too. A bit concerned it isn't more of a gel consistency but we'll see.
Hi there! We are located at Mount Druitt, or you can find this product on osren.com.au 😁. It is not gel consistency because we want it to fully contact the surface. A gel would cling to the surface but it would spread out to wet the surface hence we find it to be less efficient in our point of view
Just use citrus based degreaser and gently massage the water spot. Works well for me.
Abg pakai brand apa? Mcm mana cara dia?
Hi, thanks for this informative video first. I will be happy if you answer my question. I bought a new car and it was coated with Wetproof Bionica. After 15 days, when i wash my car i noticed water spots. Firstly when i touched them, i could feel them but now i can’t. I tried to remove them with Carpro Spotless 2.0 and Tonyin Waterspot Remover but nothing changed. So my question is; are water spots under the ceramic coating? Will they ruin ceramic coating and clear coat or just sit there? how can i remove them? And should i remove all coating with polishing heavy cut?
Hey Kadir, if you have tried using the above said products and couldn't dissolve the waterspots, a sure way to remove it is to compound and recoat it.
waterspot usually forms above the coating layer. However if paint correction and inspection aren't done properly prior to applying the coating, this means that the defect isn't removed and was coated over.
most compounds with a cutting pad should be sufficient to remove the coating
Thanks for your answer. If i leave these spots without any treatment, will it continue to etch through the clear coat? or should i polish them immediately?
Hi bro, how do you deal with Matte Paint ? Since you can't polish and clay bar it. My car has minor water spotting, is your chem contaminate safe to be used on Matte Paint?
Hi Darren, if it's a wrap, we don't recommend it.
If it's matte paint, you can give it a try at an inconspicuous area, we would recommend 05A on a damp cloth.

Is it normal to get water spots in a new ceramic coating even though when it hasn't rained? Does it have to do with the fact that they did just one step paint correction before applying ceramic coating an a brand new car?
Hi there, it is not common, and not supposed to.
Water spot will only occur when there is water and mineral present. It could also be due to improper paint correction being done (not properly corrected) prior to applying the coating.
That said, coating will require time to fully cure as well, and during that period, it is best not to expose it to water for a long period of time. Just dry with a rinseless wipe/spray/wash solution if water is on the paint.
Thereafter, wash regularly to avoid water spot from building up on coated cars.
Hi. So my car is ceramic coated but got rained on then got exposed to the heat of the sun so it dried. I already washed it but there are still light “remnants”’of the rain that I cant even remove with vinegar solution. Will the water spot removers help or do I need to take it to a professional?
Best to bring it to an installer or professional to have it dealt with. If the coating has not cured but have exposed to rain/water, re-polishing and application might be a better way to deal with it (last resort), using acid might not be the best way to go about it as coating has not fully cure. We suggest leaving it to the pros.
vinegar is too weak of acid to perform any task for detailing matters.
Hi boss...did osren malaysia conduct a detailing courses? if yes, how i want to join...tq..
Hey Wan, yes we did and do conduct training workshop. You may refer to our facebook event page on the updates, we should be resuming on december.
If you require more info on this, you may write to our email at support@osren.com or drop us a msg on facebook osren malaysia.
hope this will help
I wish I would have seen this video months ago, then I wouldn't have wasted my money on stuff that really didn't help. Where can I get the 05A and the 05X? I went to your online store and it's not there. Please help. I would love to fix the same problem your video showed.
Hey Matt, thank you for the enquiry, i believe you pm-ed us on our website messenger.
We have replied in the messager and look forward to your reply soon. Alternatively, you may also get in touch with us at support@osren.com (the chat history will disappear after certain duration)
I have bad etching and rainbow grease stains and can’t remove them. Can you help
Hey Chris, is this after applying coating? It's a little difficult to understand the context of rainbow grease stains. But in the past we have seen others not buffing evenly after application of coating, and cause 'rainbow'-ish reflection on the paint.
We solved it by sanding/leveling and polish it away, and yes, requires re-application
What is ir curing temperature & timing for Ceramic coating?
Hey Jana, it varies according to the manufacturer's specifications. For OSREN's coating, we recommend 70 Celcius, 5 feet distance.
For full curing: 35 mins per panel.
Surface curing: approximately 7-10 mins.
I just had my black car ceramic coated last january and recently its been raining non stop here, I noticed that the hydrophobic became weak should i spray over the counter ceramic sprays?
Hey Mclovin, yes that could be one of the way to boost hydrophobicity.
It might be also due to embedded dirt that are hindering it. Sometimes after performing minor maintenance without any sprays, it might improve it. But please do check with your installer on this, different coating has different resistance and reaction.
@@OSRENOfficial wow thanks for your fast reply! 🙌🏼 will definitely do it when the weather gets better here
Super .....i am from Sri lanka 🇱🇰
Hello OSREN good video with good info. What happened to Henry.
Thanks and glad you liked it! Henry is replying you 😁. Haha I’m still around, just more offline and less online at the moment.
I have HUGE water spot problem on my ceramic coated car. Every time I wash the car, it will leave water spots. And no, I dont wash it under direct sunlight. I tried polishing it with DA polisher, and it helped a bit, but some water spots still remain. I think the water spots have etched into the paint. My car is black, and the water spots (more like blemish rather than spots btw) are bluish grey and very visible. Short of repainting the car, is there anything else I can do? Thanks a lot.
Hey, so a good coating should prevent blemishes from occurring too soon. May we ask what is the frequency of each car wash? Also, it is a unicoat paint or with clear coat?
Me also and I wash my car Once a week by hand...Looks like shit and it's a new 2024 car
Easy! / 50/50 - White Vinegar and Water in a spay bottle- wait 4/5 mins - Wipe!

Great video not everyone should be coating there cars. Imo especially car enthusiast who wash there cars every 2 weeks at best. No reason to coat if your "waxing" you car every 2 weeks
I think the best way to have a clean an shiny car is to wash and “wax” every week or two 😬
@@OSRENOfficial I agree. I have ceramic coating on 3 of my cars and sometimes I wonder if it was worth it knowing I'm always cleaning the car regardless.

Appropriate 😂😂

Is it a bad idea to apply wax over ceramic? The water spots on ceramic is unbearable.
Hey John, applying wax or any lsp on the surface isn't going to prevent altogether the possibility of mineral buildup on the surface at this point of writing. (Prolong the duration needed for mineral buildup would be a more realistic expectation, but definitely not 100% prevention)
that said, maintenance by means of regular washing to prevent watermark from forming or maintenance demonstrated in this video is the way to go.
It's not a bad idea to apply a wax or compatible lsp over the coating. But please check with your service provider/supplier.
Did the guy at the start of the video get his refund?
No. We left him hanging for future contents purposes xD
so you must wake up early to wash your car , because it will be all day ;D
this makes me understand that ceramic coating is a HUGE waste of MONEY. All this to maintain the vehicle after an expensive coating process?
As soon as you said clay I knew this video was not to be followed. YOU DO NOT CLAY BAR A COATED CAR
Oh it’s okay, they topped it up with a ceramic spray wax & act like it’ll still hold the 5 year durability that the installers sold you on😂😂 hate when shops do shit like this. I’ll guarantee that coating ain’t there in 6 months.
Can i know why is that?
@@muhammadsyahidabubakar5418 clay bars have abrasives inside, some have a lot, some have a little, but the abrasives scraping against the coating can remove portions of the coating
@@muhammadsyahidabubakar5418clay bar is an abrasive. It'll take the coating off. Same reason you wouldn't polish a coated car.
They reapplied the ceramic coating at the end.
ya, like rational car owners are going to do this every time their car is rained on and the sun comes out.
I use 6 wash mitts a wash 😂
Make it 7, 7 is the perfect number xD
Water spots are the reason why I will no longer apply a nano coat on my future cars. Rain doesn't have to rhyme with pain.
Agreed. Ceramic coat= snake oil
Wetshine
Thanks. I guess you're afraid of MRI to find some cancers.
Chemistry is crazy.
Lol no no no god dam it no no 😂
Why are you wearing a surgical mask lol?
Why bother with all that? Just get it wrapped and forget about it. Making something simple so complex reduces one’s quality of life my bro. Do I want to spend all that time and money on just cleaning a car, or spend that time and money driving it and making life moments happen?
Thx for info, but there is no way u do all this manual labor every week ?? I paid 5k euro for the best ceramic coating for 5 years, I can just go to an automatic carwash right ?
Hey Eric, our recommendation is not to bring it to the automatic carwash, especially one with lots of brushes. You don't have to wash it weekly, that's loosely based on our tropical weather where it rains almost every week.
but we do recommend washing it properly and frequently to avoid marring on the coating and paint. Maintenance has always been a big part of ensuring our properties/ownership last long and staying functional.
You can always refer back to your service provider on how to properly care for your car, they would know best.
