Thank you! Finally a detailing channel that does polishing tutorials at regular speed. I've see so many that say your speed and pressure is important but then either speed up the video or do a time laps when the polishing starts. Real-time, here's how fast you should move. Great work Nick and Yvan. It's great to see products that are meant for us DIYers, but have that professional quality.
Yvan always says, “slow is fast”. And Yvan always says you don’t need pressure or use very minimal. Standing on the machine isn’t good for your process.
@@Ruhdiculusjust got a new polisher yesterday. It’s funny because it literally says in the manual “do not apply pressure. Let the tool do the work for you”
This is going to be great! New pad looks great! The rinseless is very versatile, I've also seen McKees polishing pad rejuvenator but that's another story. The rinseless works beautifully
Omg Yvan and Nick.... you just made my day, I know that I have some scratches over my car and I tough I had to do a 2 step (Compound, polish) all over the car, thank you 😊
Hopped back onto my rotary today and finished a heavy 1 step with Gyeon Primer, gyeons finishing pad and the lowest speed possible, seems to be working and the results were flawless, need a couple of more hours to be sure of purchasing a newer rotary 🤝🏻
The wool pad finishes better than I thought it would as the black paint was showing a lot of improvement. The Gold standard looks like a special polish/compound with a nice range of cut and polish. One improvement on the pad washer is to lower the pad washing plastic parts halfway down the bucket. This way the residue from the spinning pad stays in the bucket. I know you do not make the pad washer and maybe you can have Lake Country make a version for DIY. Thank you for another very educational video as you two do a great job producing.
@@diydetailofficial If I was smart I would add two pedals to the bottom of the bucket. One for lowering the unit and one for raising the unit. Another idea is a collapsing wall over the top edge of the bucket. Thank you for teaching me to work with a clean moist pad as this allows me to work cleaner. You guys are amazing!
I use an empty bucket with a lid I cut out in the center large enough for the polisher and pad and spin dry the pad it, take a little a extra time but no mess and the pad washes is alot easier to clean.
The recommendation use to be, cycle through several pads when polishing a vehicle for two reasons; 1) to maintain consistent paint correction as the pad would clog and decrease it's cutting ability. 2) to extend the life of the pad. For a one step correction on a vehicle like the truck in this video, AND using the LC pad washer, do you feel one pad for the entire vehicle is all that is needed or would you still use multiple pads?
If your not going to use multiple pads. Probably save polishing the trim for the last step lol. Trim, while it looks amazing when polished, can trash your pads.
Great video, Yvan & Nick! So you can one-step a vehicle with the purple wool pad, and have it it finish down well? Wow, can't wait to try this one out! Appreciate you guys!
Would you follow up the wool pad polish with a gold waffle pad polish on the body panel? I guess I'm asking, to polish a lot of swirls on a car and get 95% correction, would you recommend to do WOOL (1 stage), GOLD WAFFLE (1 stage), or WOOL then GOLD WAFFLE (2 stage) correction? If you did follow with a gold waffle after just finishing using the wool pad, do you wipe the polish off the body panel before proceeding, or can you just start using a damp Gold Waffle on the residual polish left on the body panel (no additional polish on pad)?
Great Video! Would it be okay to use the wool pad to do a simple scratch fix once a year without cutting to much paint? I have a black model 3 and just looking at it will scratch it. I should use panel wipe on each panel after polish correct? thx!
Amazing work and demonstration as always! Can’t wait to use the wool pads. Do you guys recommend the wool pad on a rotary? Or is the Waffle pad just fine. I’m still a Newbie with a rotary. 😢😅
@@ericw.8450 appreciate the answer brother and thank you for complimenting the channel. I only have about 20 hours of rotary time and used it about 3 years ago on my friends car. But I settled with a DA and just used that ever since. Hopefully is not as hard now that I think I have the overall understanding of paint polishing. Just being cognitive of how fast the rotary can cut
I’m a beginner. I have choice between harbor freight 40 dollar palm sander. And the Milwaukee da 15. Which should I get. Im a diy. Prolly only polish once year. But money is no issue. Jait unsure what is best to get.
Sir, does the 555 method for repairing scratches also apply to dewalt rotary ? And If I use a DA orbit 8 mm, what speed ideal for a single step process? Thanks..
Would it not be effective to switch to the Yellow foam pad for the polishing step after the Purple wool pad scratch removal? Video demonstrates using purple wool pad for both scratch removal and then polishing.
Thanks! As a beginner/beginner in business would you recommend a DA or rotary and any specifications I should look for to use with gold standard and the 2 pads? How many of each pad should I get, how many cars does each pad last on and how many cars can you get through with 1 bottle o’ gold standard? Ty and sorry for the lengthy question!
thanks. I’m on your website and am new to this. Trying to find what I should buy to take car of my cars. Do you have a video listing all the steps? What do I was the car with first? Then how do I need to dry it. Then do I have to use the ceramic coat or when do I use just the gold standard polish. Is the gold standard Polish to be used after every time I was the car? Also what milkwaukee orbital model do you use? Thanks.
With the pad washer or the method of dipping in the rinseless you can use one pad. But I'm curious if we should do the lower half in wool if needed and just the portion below and the trim with foam
Higher speed creates more heat. Heat reduces cut, and increases the risk of micro marring. Use the lowest speed that will maintain backing plate rotation.
Hey guys, when using your wool pad, dampened with rinse-less with other compounds, does the product need to primed/spread to cover most/all fibres or should the pad have enough lubrication to spread the product on speed 1 like normally?
@@diydetailofficial I mean more so about whether it's important to spread the product on all the fibers before contacting the paint. As I hear with wool/microfibre this can cause marring/scratches but I assume the damp pad from rinseless would mitigate this?
When will that pad be available? I have a friends car (black with some deeper scratches) that she wants me to do but not until winter is over. So I have a few months.
What to do if you have paint chip, that had been fill, it makes like a small bubble, would you wet sanded first than compound and polish, or just compound over the area than polish the panel ???
If I have a 8 mm da do I need to up my rpms? I noticed at speed 1 or 2 with no pressure I get almost no cut, why is that? I'm not applying any pressure and my polish is heavy cut.
So do you recommend the wool pad for older more severe paints and the waffle for newer paint for paint enhancements? My car is 7 years old and was taking through car washes before I bought it I’m going to coat it but wanna get at least 75 to 80% correction.
Nick and Ivan, if you would have to guess, what would be the coarser sandpaper that this polish is capable to remove with that wool pad? Maybe 1500 grit?
So one polish for cutting and finish (just different pads) and I can use rinseless in my lake country 4000 system bucket to clean the pads?! Is it efficient as the snappy clean powder that I currently using?
Ooh whaaat I didn't know you can do that using rinseless wash with lcs4000 🤯, I can use that method thru out my paint correction? Can I use the same method using snappy clean boost?
What other pad similar to DIY Wool cutting pad works well with Gold Standard Polish? I would like to use the DIY wool pad, but may not be able to get it before I need to polish a friend's car.
Yes, for sure if you’re applying our ceramic coating. Also if you want to it will increase longevity for something like ceramic gloss or even quick beads, but not necessary
How many pads should one use for say a f150? I did my truck last year.but,not sure about the pads sometimes..always afraid not going to damage paint. Thanks guys!
Does a 21mm do more correction than a 9mm in same number of passes? If so how many passes is too many with a 9mm to achieve the same results? I don't want to work the paint too much
You don't need to use it, Ceramic Gloss works fantastic simply by spraying on a wet panel that's been cleaned. However, if you choose to apply Panel Prep after washing and BEFORE applying Ceramic Gloss, you'll definitely get maximum longevity
Hey Yvan, would you say that using a 21mm with a 5inch backing plate to cut and a lower mm machine to polish would leave less marring or issues in the finish?
@@diydetailofficial yeah i understand tht part but what if someone wants as close as they can get without an actual paint job. like a 2-step correction. i dont know what products to use
I'm certainly no expert. More of a DIYer, taking care of me and my wife's cars, occasionally doing some work for someone else. I was always of the understanding that you need 5-6 pads per vehicle. Since you are washing your pads off in a pad washer after, let's say every panel, is it reasonable to only use 1 or 2 per vehicle? I have the Detail Guardz pad washing system so that would be my method of pad cleaning
@@diydetailofficial That's a good idea if you can afford to buy one. And the room to store it. You can also learn the way that i did. Watch some good videos from Pros. Buy some sanding blocks, and 1000 , 2000, 3000 grit sand paper. Then practice on an old car where if you screw up, you still probably improved it. Its really easy to do if you can follow instructions . Its also a huge money maker for a shop. Bear in mind if the scratch is all the way thru the color coat its impossible to repair with out repainting. Although you can greatly improve the scratch to the point where it's difficult to see.
The title says Most scratches. In detailing you are never removing a scratch, you are removing all the clear coat around it down to the level of the scratch.

The DIY line is really becoming complete. Looking forward to the waterless wash
Can’t we dilute that to higher ratio for waterless like we do McKees?
Yes, but a diluted Rinseless wash isn’t as safe as a dedicated waterless. It’s a different chemistry.
Love how you guys make it simple!
Thank you
Such an amazing tutorial for car enthusiasts thank you!!

Sir, does the 555 method for repairing scratches also apply to dewalt rotary ?
And

Thanks..
No 555 is reserved for a 15 or 21mm DA.
For the 8mm machine a speed that’s high enough to maintain backing plate rotation.
Would it not be effective to switch to the Yellow foam pad for the polishing step after the Purple wool pad scratch removal? Video demonstrates using purple wool pad for both scratch removal and then polishing.
Yes, it’s a great way of doing it.
Was that waffle pad ruined after that trim? It was really black. Safe to take it back to paint after that?

@@diydetailofficial ok thnk you for your quick reply .. is there one you would recomend ?? Preferebly black with red ?
So, from harshest to lightest how do you list your pads. -- using your gold standard polish?

Come to Waxstock in the UK! 🙏😂
Is the process the same for old paint, with no clear coat?
Yes
Another banger thank you fellas
Glad you enjoyed it
Can a single pad be used to polish the whole car ? Or will you need to eventually use another pad?
With the pad washer or the method of dipping in the rinseless you can use one pad.
But I'm curious if we should do the lower half in wool if needed and just the portion below and the trim with foam
With the pad washer one pad can do several vehicles.
You can do that if needed.
Can you show the rotation of backing plate on polisher or deep video on just machine
Noted
Hey Maybe next video can we see how much paint came off with a paint gauge on your new pad ?
Good idea
I work at a car dealership ive seen some bad cars but most bad cars go to the auction
They bought this from the auction
What's the difference between using speed 3 or 4 on a DA or even 5. What results do you get when using different speeds?
Higher speed creates more heat. Heat reduces cut, and increases the risk of micro marring. Use the lowest speed that will maintain backing plate rotation.
@@diydetailofficial awesome, thanks!

So you can finish out with the purple wool pad? I have Lake Country's purple wool and i find i need to follow up with a foam pad for a good finish.
The short nap and foam interface make a big difference. That said finishing with our waffle pad is recommended
@@diydetailofficial well noted!
What if you don't have a pad washer, what do you do?
You can dunk in Rinseless, squeeze out, and put it back on your tool to spin dry.

There are different ones, many of our distributors have inventory.

Do you suggest a panel wipe before applying protection after using DIY Polish?
Yes, for sure if you’re applying our ceramic coating. Also if you want to it will increase longevity for something like ceramic gloss or even quick beads, but not necessary
Is it filled or removed?
Dude the only thing this polish fills is your wallet. A little goes a long way and does not fill, it corrects.

Does your wool pad leave less marring and haze than a microfiber pad?
Yes, but it’s in no way a finishing pad.
@@diydetailofficial Right, finish with the waffle foam pads. Thankyou..
Exactly!
Does a 21mm do more correction than a 9mm in same number of passes? If so how many passes is too many with a 9mm to achieve the same results? I don't want to work the paint too much
Yes the longer the stroke on an orbital, the more cutting power it has. Your test spot is your guide.
@@diydetailofficial much appreciated
Is this possible to do this with a cordless backing plate for a drill to polish? Buying a rotary for every now and then seems like a waste.
A drill is not easy to control. If you have a random orbital sander, you can use that.
What do you guys used for a topper/refresher for the ceramic coating? You just use ceramic gloss every once in a while on a coated vehicle?
Yes, that or Quick Beads…or, both:)
@@diydetailofficial Good thing I have both ;)
Do u suggest paint prep before Ceramic Gloss?
You don't need to use it, Ceramic Gloss works fantastic simply by spraying on a wet panel that's been cleaned. However, if you choose to apply Panel Prep after washing and BEFORE applying Ceramic Gloss, you'll definitely get maximum longevity
Does the wool pad cause any haying ?
In some cases yes it will cause hazing, but the foam pad takes care of it easily

Hey Yvan, would you say that using a 21mm with a 5inch backing plate to cut and a lower mm machine to polish would leave less marring or issues in the finish?
Yes
