Great video. I plan to do this sort of thing on my wife's car while she's gone visiting her sister for a month. She'll be surprised.🎉

Always satisfying to see neglected paint get the care it needs. I would never let my paint get to anywhere near this state, but there's no shortage of other cars that are. Good video!

Great video Josh! I have a 2018 Murano that has never gone through this process. It's garage-stored, so the paint is in much better shape. Some work needed on the B & C pillars. I've got product & equipment to carry this out and having my son do the work. He'll clay towel it and assess. Polish if need be, then Cerakote. I took notes & will have him watch this video. Fingers crossed 😉👍🏻

I like seeing your process! The end result is awesome! An iron remover is great just smells, some of them you can combine with the rag company or diy clay towel. But a fallout remover is different from an iron remover so be mindful of that The claying phase can be tricky, quick detailers normally have some form of protection. If you're looking to coat may want a rinseless wash, but polishing would remove the protection from the qd

@imjoshv 10 ай бұрын

thats a good point, I always use a quick detailer with no additives for protection but its a good ideas to clarify that!

@frankschopp8748 10 ай бұрын

looks awesome thanks for all the info. Love your stuff. Would you put a wax ontop of all that if so what would you use or that is good enough because it would sit out side in the harsh conditions till it is looked at again.

@elayned6147 8 ай бұрын

I take good care of my paint and wash often and detail afterwards. I recently took a clay bar to the paint with a detail spray (Maguires) it’s quite smooth and shiny. What do you suggest for my next step, or product to apply? Thanks, enjoyed the video. Very informative 👍

Hi Josh, really appreciate your videos, I've been learning a lot between you and Pan's channels. I followed your advice and got Maxshine 15 pro and Mcguire 110/210 compound/polishes, which pads would you suggest I use as a beginner with these, tia

@imjoshv 10 ай бұрын

These would be a great way to start: amzn.to/3Pja1ao You can get pretty deep into all the different pads, but these are what i use most of the time. blue is cutting, yellow is polishing, and white is finishing. If im doing a one step enhancement i usually just use the yellow

What pressure washer are you using in this video? I’m trying to learn paint correction.. your videos have been super helpful! I need to pick up some of those choch chemi products.. I still don’t have anything in their line

@The1Music2MyEars 2 ай бұрын

Don't bother with Koch, It's over priced. His earlier videos contained multiple product comparisons and Meguiars Gold Class is still the best value car wash soap that you can use in a foam cannon or even as clay lube. ONR should be in your arsenal too as it's a window cleaner, clay lube, or pretreatment (but not aggressive). Griots Foaming Surface Wash is the best prewash if you don't want to strip already applied wax. Wheel Cleaner: Adams Wheel and Tire. P&S was heavily recommended 1-2 years ago but it is a lot weaker than Adams but it has rust inhibitors in it. If you want to strip wax so you can start pure clean to paint correct, any strip wash will do as long as it's cheaper than Koch. Koch isn't really that special.

You mentioned when you do a ceramic coat you use a ceramic primer polish. Would it work if you used a non primer compound for cutting then use the primer polish to finish before coating?

@bluegrasskid4835 10 ай бұрын

Is there any benefit to using a high ph/alkaline wash in a foam cannon versus a regular ph neutral wash in a foam cannon and just adding an ounce or two of APC? Use of the APC negates the need to have two different washes.

Josh, not sure whether or not I or anyone else ever asked this: can the iron remover be used on a car with decals. I have an 88 IROC that has door and line decals. Should I avoid spraying iron remover on those? I've had the car for 35 years and had it repainted about 11 years ago.

What is the difference between M205 and M210? Because the M210 polish is a little "finer", would it "finish" a little better with more clarity on soft paint? Thnx.

@brianbeltran7503 Ай бұрын

Hey Josh i detailed for a year back in the day never wanted to polish so barely getting into it since its not so intimidating as it used to be but i had a question about the pads why didn’t you spray some sort of conditioner to the pad isn’t that always needed for less heat/friction?

@imjoshv Ай бұрын

You can, I usually just prime my pad with polish. I load the pad up a bit more on the first application and make sure it’s got good coverage

@notarypublic2426 10 ай бұрын

You probably get asked the same questions over and over, but just once more. What type of pressure washer do you use? and do you use the clients water and or electricity?

@jessicaho19 10 ай бұрын

Hi Josh, I finally got my car detailing/pressure washer setup complete. But one last thing I wanted to know before I use it is, are you using the 40 degree tip to rinse the vehicle? I bought a set but is it safe to use the 25 degree or even 15 degree tip for the car? Thanks in advance!

@imjoshv 10 ай бұрын

Hi yea I typically use a 40 but you can use whatever works for you. If your using a 15 it will be slightly more powerful at say 1’ distance vs the 40 just because of the more direct angle but it anything you can just add a little more distance from the car and you’ll be fine

Toyota clear coat & paint work both suck! The clear coat peels easily, and when you take it to the dealership under warranty, they'll fight you on it, they will tell you that it only affects certain white and silver cars, but I've already gone through two different toyota models and had the same problem. I will never again buy a toyota
