That Touring is in Portomao blue. I was lucky enough to nearly buy one but for 7-8 grand less I bought a Jaguar XE R Dynamic Black edition with a list of extras added. Beautiful BMW bit gutted because of the price. I've bought a load of Bilt Hamber products focusing on LSP so that I wouldn't have to do this for a long long time. This just shows how much time and effort is involved deep at the core of detailing. 👍

3:19 - One time I had a big surprise was when I used Perfect Finish to do a one-step on an HS clearcoat. Under heavy light you couldn't see much marring, but after using a panel wipe I could see half of the initial scratches, which would be expected. With Koch abrasives doesn't happen :\ Also, a great advice for detecting whether the pad stalls is marking a straight line on the backplate with a sharpie

Nice video Jon. Just a question though. Shouldn't the perfect finish have been worked a little longer? Every time I use it I notice that it gets oilier as I go along. I think this is where it changes from cutting to fnishing too. Seemed to me like you could have gotten a little bit more finishing out of it. What's your take?

Hi, what's the best thing to wipe a panel down after polishing ?, I've got some gyeon q2m APC (will dilute as per the bottle) is that ok to use or is there better?. I'm such a noob and got so many questions about pads and polish on new cars/new paint.

@ForensicDetailing 2 жыл бұрын

Use panel wipe not apc. Gyeon prep, bilt hamber cleanser fluid etc..

@@ForensicDetailing Thanks Jon, just today in the post I got gyeon prep and the waterspot remover ;). Still need to find my feet with the Flex XFE, as in actually using the polisher and pad/polish choice. Your content helps alot and 100% next time im going to chill and not rush and "slow down" with the passes.

Would you say getting a old bonnet from a scrap yard that isn’t too beat up, and has fairly decent paint and price, is a good way to practice technique for a newbie

I did this, great way to learn though It was only the other week so I’m yet to polish the car I’ve just got. But it’s the best way to learn I think.

@MrManBuzz 2 жыл бұрын

That's a great way to practice. It'd actually probably be better to get one with swirls and marks on it, so you can experiment with different compounds and grades to see what works and what doesn't.
