    For me each pad has its uses. It all depends on the paint! On hard paints I like microfiber for cutting but finish with yellow foam. A very soft paint for me a yellow foam pad followed by a white foam pad is enough.
    And for me the new rupes microfiber pads are (thanks to mr. Jason rose) improved meguiar's microfiber disc!, would even be a good topic "meguiar's microfiber discs vs news rupes microfiber" with glossmeter, ptg etc...

    Great content again........what about a video on how long it takes to damage the paint? How long it takes to burn through the clear coat and paint? Different machines and different polishes and pads? Also on ridges which would be faster to burn through? Sounds like a forensic detail video to me jon 🤔......would be a great informative watch.

    I find the uno pure is extremely gentle, so best for soft paints with foam pads.
    I agree with all the cut finding. I use blue and yellow MF pads, I find they cut and finish surprisingly well. But I find myself stil floating back and forth from yellow wool and carport ultra cut compound. It is the best single stage combo for hard to medium paint.

  • @EazyDuz18
    @EazyDuz18 Рік тому +1

    My Volvo paint has some bird poo etching so i've ordered a small blue Rupes foam pad to hopefully cut it down and a chemical guys hex logic orange medium-heavy cut to finish. That's the plan anyway. The clearcoat is extremely hard, the green hex logic didnt put a dent in any of the swirls so I have no choice. I use Megs UC or Scholl S20 depending on the job.

    For me, with VAG paint harder than Rocky Balboa on steroids, the microfibre is the only thing it doesn't just laugh off really.
    I cant get any joy whatsoever with any of the foam pads, and I don't own a rotary machine nor feel my paint needs THAT level of clear coat removal.
    What I need to do is some experimenting to see what sort of finish I can get on the really hard paints using the blue mircrofibre but with the yellow and white polishes.
    It would be good to cut down on the need for 27,000 drawers full of different pads.

    Generally dealt with softer paint in my experience, my Aston has very soft paint. I am looking forward to using the white to achieve some gentle correction as it so soft. Foam is my go to in honesty as a result as I rarely need aggressive cut.

  • @7071t6
    @7071t6 Рік тому +1

    Hi champ, it also depends on the type of paint surface, soft v's med v's heard paints, which is why you always do a test section first to work out the best pad to use tot get the best results in the time you have to do a job ?
    so many different polishes and compounds that not all will do the same with blue, yello, white foam, wool or microfiber its all about the experience you have with all the type of polishes on the market and if you kept a diary of soft, med, hard paints and which polishes to use and which pads get the best results in each case, as far as doing a complete car for pro detailing, then you have it made, like Sandro from car craft auto detailing channel he really knows his stuff guys?

    Esoteric has always stuck to compound with yellow microfiber ( before was meguires ) and yellow foam for finish
    I think their advice is trustworthy given they Polish 3+ million dollars cars and have a crew who Polish day in and out. They know what works for 95% of cases.
    Of course they have different pads but this is their sauce after years and years of day in and out detailing extremely high end exotics / supercars / collections

      I would get a DA vanessa. If your going to use a rotary keep the speed right down and keep it moving dont let it heat the paint up. dont polish on raised edges. I would start with DA honestly.

    Hi John, great video. Nice to see a one brand review and an explanation of pad types. Interesting to see Pan’s latest video where he comments that the Rupes blue mf pad is very rigid and suggests that unless major correction is required he recommends using the yellow pad with the blue Rupes compound. Hope you can answer 2 questions:
    1. In general is Nissan a hard, med or soft paint?
    2. When doing a test section, would you start with the white foam pad as it’s the least aggressive, or go straight to yellow?
    Thanks for all the great content in 2022 and all the best for 2023.👍

    • @ForensicDetailing
      @ForensicDetailing  Рік тому +1

      you would use the blue as part of a cut and finish, I dont find the blue wool too stiff personally. I would cut with it whenever I wanted to maximise what I can achieve to get a single cut phase so I dont have to cut more than once. The blue will always need to be finished out. Yellow wool you could use to cut on softer paints perhaps, or single stage. The rupes blue compound is very agressive so short set only.
      nissan I think is soft to medium. I would never start with white foam no, not unless Im just applying a wax on good paint. Thats for finishing down really. First question you have to ask is am I doing a multiple set polish/correction. If so then very agressive first cut and good long refining polish gives you maximum bang for 2 sets of polishing. When you start going 3 or 4 sets then something is bad maybe rock hard paint with deep defects or cutting out heavy sanding marks. Very few detailers will want to do multiple sets because it means more than a day detail and thats typically for the studio guys. 99% of details will be smashed out with single stage polish like S20 mate only way to wash/decon/polish/LSP a car in a day would be single staging really if your on your own.

    You've really done many amazing tests. Just wondering would blue wool + yellow foam be the best combo for doing a two step polish and cutting as many scratches as possible? About to do my first trial on my mercedes, is the blue wool a better choice for a beginner who uses a DA polisher, as wool is a lot cooler than microfiber?

    On limited budget so can you recommend which pad to get for a 1 stage and which other pad to cut for a 2 stage? Thanks. Yellow wool to cut, and for 1 stage. And yellow foam to finish maybe? Or would it be better to go for blue wool cutting and then yellow foam to finish. As I can use the yellow foam for 1 stages. Thanks and your videos are super helpful!

      If it's pro coating it might need wet sanding. Most consumer based ones can be removed with cutting compound like Koch h8 on a machine polisher.

      Those blue foam fads need to be "warned up" before use. They're a lot like the old UHS grey foam pads.
      Once broken in, they will cut and finish beautifully.

    Wouldn't it be more appropriate to go over the area that you hit with the yellow setup with the white combo to find it's true finishing capabilities?
    It seems blue microfiber is best for cutting. Which material for the white pads would you recommend for final finishing microfiber, foam or wool?

      The old ones had a polyurethane resin substrate that the backing, and microfiber material were attached to.
      The initial version had actual blue and yellow fibers. The blue had a looped material, and the yellow had "strings" like the ones we're used to. They also featured spiral-ish vents that allowed heat to escape through the channels in the backing plate.
      Then they changed the microfiber material to something more famaliar, and left the fibers white. They said the pads performed better with un-dyed fibers. The model designation was printed on the substrate in the color appropriate to the function.
