@Amsterdamnster Kush I actually make money doing professional paint correction and installing coatings now. It's a pretty lucrative side business. Amazing what happens when you put your mind to something. You should try it.

The Rock - Me too!

When do gonna test zvizzer compounds ?

Jason thanks so much posts like this make it all worthwhile, its a great hobby and the best feeling is when you invest the time and get the car looking really good. awesome made my day that has :)

It sure is very rewarding to see the results John. I kept leaning out of our dining room window last night waving my hand in front of the PIR to get the drive light to come on so I could see the car shining brightly! Haha! Thanks again for your brilliant videos :-)

Hahaha

Clay bar fall out remove and tar and glue

Bought the h9, I need a real compound. Used a 15mm throw DA. The megs 105 cuts 10 time better. Tested on a relative soft paint with years of rids ad swirls

thanks very much its always nice to get some positive feedback appreciate it

Forensic Detailing Channel Is there a resource you know of where I can order some of these products online? Amazon US doesn't carry most of them.

we have like different brands and products over here with some cross over both ways. Scholl you should be able to get in the USA, koch I dont think are available. Menz yes... megs yep :) generally speaking I really dont know the US distributors that well. You should check out obsessed garage store because the products matt sells there is the stuff he has chosen to use and he has a good eye for detail. rag company I know. autogeek. blackfire, esoteric beyond that I really dont know mate sorry

Im shooting bits of the polish test now. funny you mention s20 and 04-06. I talking about this in the next vid. but would need to do a seperate one to compare them

Good stuff. Interested to get your opinion on S20 Black regards to its cut and finish.

Cutmax cuts very good!

I have used M100 and M101. M100 is nice to use, has longer working time, less dust and doesnt smell bad like M101. However M101 destroys M100 when it comes to cutting power atleast when using microfiber pads. instagram.com/p/BPe8QzQBonA/?taken-by=jtm_hmg

M100 is leaps and bounds more forgiving than M105. Great cut, and great finish.

Cut is not great but ok most. I did side by side test with M101 vs M100 vs Rupes Zephir and M100 was hands down weakest compound. And i have had many projects where i started with M100 and it just didnt cut enough so i switched to M101 and problem solved.

I think you might be right. I know the S3 works well on soft paintwork (although Ill use it on any paintwork really). I suspect the H8 will be ok though. My test panel is Ford OEM. It really is splitting the atom this one.

Forensic Detailing Channel for a long time Koch chemie H8.02 was my favorite compound because of the cut it has, it’s an amazing compound that makes a great gloss but on softer clear coats it gets a bit sticky. When I tried DK compounds they had me spot on it really works wonders for me on everything and that low dusting is the sweet spot for me with that level of cut :)

it definetly doesnt have the level of lubrication of 1.1 or s3. but my god it cuts :) they are so close because h8 is well lubricated as well.

Forensic Detailing Channel Yes its a close race between top 3 in your test, I use both KC H8 and DK 1.1 but mostly DK because of the low dusting. When I use DK on the DA it cuts best for me on 3-4 and when I use rotary it cuts best at about 1500 rpm

maybe but I think its good to talk about it and then how important that actually is to each person will vary like you say and each person can take away from that what they will... big variance in price though.. dont like paying 44 quid with a litre of abrasives when a very well regarded brand is charging like 28 quid.

was gonnas mention. scholl have changed to bottle lids now, they have proper nozzles on them. yer the current older lids are woefull.

mate thanks for that I really do need to do this, the oem hose suxs

Mike Kniess 2nd for the last cut, really a game changer I love it have heard good things about carpro clear cut also

Yeah I been hearing a bunch about last Compound also

2018 is going year some really good yr for detailers rupes and flex have new polisher and pads and polish system to go with them give. John chance to catch up last cut might not available in UK the products he tested are available he using. a new toy gloss meter will give accurate results. it's expensive to try to new products if the distribution. In UK you pay important tax 30 dollars plus cost of products John re views a lot of products. I am sure car pro clear cut is a great product.

H8.2 was just king

your right cutmax I think would have been better. will get hold on some at some point

you need to ask if they develope and manufacture in house first. big quo-dos if they do.

Forensic Detailing Channel Why that’s important?

02powertube can you elaborate a little more please, I've been waiting for a response to the H9, what pad did you use and what gloss level did it give you and can you put it up against s3 👍

@@lozzarichards5515 well, i have long searched for a replacement for my m105, and i think the new m110 is too expensive here in Denmark. I have tried sonax cutmax, 3m, sonax 05-05 and must say i now prefer the Koch. Mainly because it has more lubrication, and on the same time easy to wipe. Leaving a finnish around the same as a good Meg

If she sees the car needs a wash, does she say, "you dirty bastard!" :-D I'm sure she is a lady and words like that would never cross her lips! :-o

thanks buddy yes this will come soon I promise.

so mixed in with the abrasives is the carrier.. you lay the product down on the panel over your polishing area at low speed, crank the machine up to a good speed and work is.. as you work the abrasives 2 significant things happen. 1 you generate heat 2 the abrasives scrap off clearcoat into the liquid abrasive slurry. As you generate heat you dry the carrier out (to varying extents depending on what the carrier is) and as you collect debry you thicken the slurry a bit like adding flour to milk. You can also have solvents in the carry that flash out of the slurry as well.. the bottem line is as you work your pad over the surface you want to see the film of product moving. As the carrier fails you can see various things happen. With megs you will start collecting product up and seeing patches or discs of dry panel and not long after that you will start dry buffing and collecting all the thick (now gunk like) slurry up in the pad. The main problem is some of the abrasives like S3 gold have carrier systems which just go on and on and on. With megs cutting compound 105 you prolly dont want to be working it beyond 2 minutes on a DA although its very hard to give you an exact time because so many things can effect it. you will see what I mean.. also really important to clean the gunk out the pad after each set mate. I would not recomend 105 if your doing this for the first time.. its a cool product but its a little bit harder to use and has a less forgiving carrier

Forensic Detailing Channel John, thanks for that reply, really appreciate it. Do you think I'd do well to go with the S3 gold then or scholl S20 black?

if your looking for a heavy cutting compound and its the first time youve polished. S3 gold XXL will work really well on a DA and its easy to use, very low dusting etc.. so I would go with that. you will need to refine out the finish though really.. S3 like I say is a heavy cut compound which a decent finish.. but you would want to finish out with something like S40 with it. S20 is a 1 step. so if you dont want to do multiple stage correction with different pads and compounds. S20 is the way to go.

Forensic Detailing Channel Brilliant, just watched your vid on how to use Das6 pro for beginners, brilliant guide, thanks. I'm going for that machine and the S20 black then. Would I use an orange chem guys pad or the green one or does it matter, thanks again John 👍👍👍

Its mad brett. Ive noticed the inconsistencies with the global distribution footprint of these companies manufacturing abrasives. Theres also inconsistencies with pricing in different countries. Its all about having a distributor to take it on that is not going to over price it.

yer delving into pads more would have been usefull. defo gonna do more on pads next year and explore options there. pretty sure you will like H8 mate let me know your thoughts on it.

That would be great. Rupes have there dedicated grey pad for UHS one step and maybe you can show your take on pads to use, can be used etc.

its crazy that they dont. They are huge in germany. I think someone will end up selling them in the US sooner or later...

problem is I dont have a smart phone. I use like this 5 quid nokia. and the instagram PC app suxs, so much hassel to convert pictures to it from a DSLR. I think I need to go high tech and get a new mobile phone :(

Jan-Roger Kviteberg not that impressed of it, Ressurection was still more effective...

I do actually have cut and finish.. although sonax rate the cut level the same. I was hoping because 05-04 has less gloss it was perhaps more abrasive. should have just used cutmax really.

cut max is simular to koch chemie h8.02 but has better finish,,also new ex cut 05-05 is the best one step polish. new ingredients gives you amaiying cut and better gloss then other,

we did all the products with a green rupes on the rotary on the hood with a section for each, and a yellow hex logic on the DA on the hood with a section for each. And then also did the same with the 3401 and an orange LC cutting. Its just the way ive randomly overlayed shots of either the rotary or the DA or the 3401..

Makes sense. Thanks for the clarification.

some people do yes..but on softer paints and stuff and when your cutting you can leave fine marring in there and stuff. and the finer polish will give the real top notch gloss. so its about time.. but from a detailing perspective really these cutting products I believe should be finish out properly.

I have XXL and TLC. I like TLC better.

Nice! Thank you! Have you tried the CarPro CLear cut?

No problem. I have not tried clear cut.

not tried sorry. Im not sure if its available in the UK.

Sure polish with Koch f6 and flex orange Pad on a da
