𝗣𝗥𝗢𝗝𝗘𝗖𝗧 𝗢𝗩𝗘𝗥𝗩𝗜𝗘𝗪
My summer holidays are over but I am going out with a bangI My friends at Tunerworks reached out to see if I would be interested in tackling a 2011 AMG C63 that required some attention. A member of the ownership group gave me carte blanche to bring the swirled paint and PPF back to life. The interior was in need of love as well. I just couldn't bring myself to document the interior cleaning process because it was too intense, but it came out great. I am going to be putting the proceeds of this project towards the purchase of new winter tires for my SQ5. The team at Tunerworks is working with me to see what kind of deal we can hash out. I am hoping to snag a set of Hakkapeliitta R5's. I'll be sure to update everyone if and when it happens. In the meantime, enjoy this video that showcases the highlights of the resurrection process I followed.

Rad are classically trained in videography? I know you teach but wow your editing is on another level. Also where and how do u find the perfect song all the time?!?

@RADGarage Жыл бұрын

I started playing around with making videos at work about 8 years ago and it has just developed from there. I really should take a course or two at some point. For the music, I spend a lot of time on Souncloud.com searching for interesting artists. When I find one, I reach out and ask their permission to include their music in my videos. The vast majority of them are super keen to partner with me. Then, I just peruse their songbooks in search of the tracks I feel work with my video footage. You can find links to all these awesome and generous artists here: www.radgarage.ca/music.html

Thanks Bryan. The way those swirls just melted out of the clear coat brought me a great sense of satisfaction for sure. I have spoken with the man behind Turbo Wax and he is sending me a few more bottles of the Swirl Remover Pro X which is by far the best polishing compound I have ever worked with.

This is how to end the summer with a beautiful AMG Mercedes with black swirled paint. You knocked this detail out of the park as this beauty is dripping gloss. More importantly thank you for teaching the youth in school. There are a lot of teachers in my family and the sacrifices you make often go untold but teachers are heroes to me.

Hi Rick. What wonderful display of humility in your opening comments of the video. You are more 'professional' than most professional detailers I know. Sometimes the passion behind a hobby outweighs the knowledge of a job. I haven't even seen the full video yet but just had to pause and acknowledge a character trait of yours that is lacking in so much of our society these days. All the best brother. Wishing you a great school year as well. -Gilberto

@RADGarage Жыл бұрын

Thanks Doc! I consider my overall approach to detailing to be sound, but the fact that this is a passion and a hobby, and not my actual profession, allows me to approach the process with more patience since turning a profit is not something I concern myself with. So, in that sense, I am not a professional, but I sincerely appreciate your compliment and I do try to churn out professional-grade results whenever I can.

I always share the product list for each project, but I don't always speak about them in the actual video. I prefer to so little talking and just demonstrate the process and results, but for a project such as this, I felt a little more explanation was in order. I am so happy with my current inventory of detailing products. It has taken years, but I have a garage full of products that I just love. It doesn't matter what product I reach for, it does what I need it to do.

I am flattered you feel confident enough in my work that you would try out the same products I often use. I agree, the Q2M Foam is just a solid all-around pre-wash shampoo that probably rids cars of 95% of surface dirt. Lithium is very unique in their formulations and their products always offer something a bit different and effective. I have really enjoyed using their Wheely Great Tire Conditioner and Dressing on the last few projects. It applies so well and leaves a perfect natural finish.

Rick, I had never heard of those tires you mentioned. Living in Florida, I have never really had a need for a winter tire. I googled them, and the tread pattern reminds me of tires I had back in the 1970's, Pirelli CN36's.

@RADGarage Жыл бұрын

I am so excited to be equipping my SQ5 with the Hakka R5’s. Nokian is arguably the maker of the finest winter tires in the world! That’s interesting that you spotted a similarity between the R5’s and the old Pirelli CN36’s. I guess there is a limit to the variety of possibly tread patterns!

Thanks Fred. A black sedan such as this was a bit intimidating, but I'm at a point now where I actually think I have all the necessary equipment, products and ability to tackle anything. That's due in large part to the variety of products I have been introduced to through the Glove Box program. Keep doing what you do to help us weekend warriors learn what products are out there.

Where did the summer go? I hope you had a great summer, and hope that there are still more Rad Garage videos in the queue, even if the frequency is lower (how come work always gets in the way of all the fun stuff??!!?). You certainly get to work on some amazing cars, and this AMG was no exception. There is indeed something very satisfying about polishing a black vehicle, perhaps it is the stark contrast between the before and after, since black shows absolutely every flaw. Thanks for spending your summer providing such great content to your viewers and subscribers! How difficult was the AMG to work with, was the paint fairly hard or was it on the softer side? Thanks again for sharing, Rick, another fantastic work of art both in front of and behind the camera!

Eventhough I only produced six or seven videos this summer, I am sure most viewers can understand the number of hours that goes into the detailing and production of each video. I love doing it, but.a little bit of a break is definitely in order. Thanks for being such a keen viewer of this summer's RAD projects, Clint. It means a lot to have such supportive and dedicated viewers such as yourself.

Hi my friend ! How proud you must feel after this C63 AMG resurrection ! This is your hobby as you mentioned before but everyone will agree with me on the fact that you have now reached such a high-level ! On detailing side obviously but also on your editing skills Rick 😉! Moreover, you have build such a nice network during these last 3 years I'd say and your community is now counting more than 30.000 subs ! I am very proud to be part of your channel too ! Wish you all the best for work next week 🤞! I will be back to work the week after you, which will give me enough time to play a little more with my brand new Bissell Spotclean Pro, which is a real killer ! Did my fabric floor mats and the trunk carpet, man I could barely believe the fithy and grimy juice I got in the water tank 🤮! Next step will be the carpets cause it was still 33°C here and I was already sweating like crazy and finally a quick interior refresh. Take care mate ! Stay RAD and see you on the next one 😉 Gregg

Another visual feast! And it’s not an Audi (just kidding) . Black cars give me anxiety, but man if I don’t love a freshly corrected and coated AMG. Rick, one thing I noticed , and this may be a stark generalization, is that Canadians tend to hold on to their cars longer than Americans, despite the harsh weather. Who knows, I may be off base though. Hope you had a great summer.

@RADGarage Жыл бұрын

It doesn't matter how many projects I have under my belt, a black car still makes me nervous! I think the bulk of the cars you see on my channel, were pre-owned purchases. My personal theory is, guys my age are starting to realize the "best" cars have already been produced so they are starting to acquire them. Not to say new cars aren't awesome, but the age of the people I associated with suggests they are melancholy about the cars they admired and now they are in a position to finally buy them. Just a theory.

A few questions if you think about doing a FAQ anytime soon : - What's the car you've enjoyed detailing the most (apart from yours) - What's the dream car you would like to detail - What do you think about the thousands of "disaster car detailing" videos you can see on youtube ? Do you think they stage those videos by adding dirt, moss, and trash in cars before cleaning ? - Would you see yourself making detailing your mainjob ?

@RADGarage Жыл бұрын

Great questions François! - The car I enjoyed detailing the most would have to be the BMW 2002 I did last summer. - A dream car that I would like to detail is a Porsche 928S4 - I can't stand "disaster details". I am sure many of them are staged since it seems to be the most viewed type of video in the detailing genre.

Rick, can you please explain to me your thought process on rinsing the pre-soak foam from bottom up? would love to hear your explaination for this. That video was a banger !!! Keep them comming.

@RADGarage Жыл бұрын

Bottom up is the way to go. If you begin rinsing your foam from the top, the run off rinses away the foam on the lower portion of the car, so by the time you get there, the foam is all gone and what are you really doing? You are spraying the car with water. By working your way up, you ensure you are thrusting foam (not just water). into the tight body gaps which is the primary reason I follow a pre-wash foam process. It does seem counter intuitive, but I stand by it 100%! Thanks fo the question and I hope to keep viewers entertained as we enter in the Fall/Winter season here.

Awesome work, always enjoy your videos. I have one question - what is your secret to minimize the rust bloom that happens on steel brake discs when washing cars with steel big brake kits?

@RADGarage Жыл бұрын

Thanks for the compliment. The only sure-fire way of eliminating that rotor rust is to take the car for a quick spin around the black and apply the brakes a few times. There is nothing else I have found that works. Sometimes, taking a car around the block is just not possible due to sloppy road conditions and you don't want to undo all the wash work you just did, so that is a problem that I am still looking for a solution to.
