I used the DP coating. I wipe it on, and buff it off the way the directions state. I hope I'm doing it right. I know you don't want the DP drying without leveling it. I made that mistake. I had to...
I did a 1965 Corvette convertible with a yellowed plastic back window. I was able to buff the plastic window and make it at least 60 percent more clear. So sometimes you can buff clear plastic as...
It is decontaminated after you buff it. My windows look brand new buffing them with a wool pad. They appear soft, clean and very clear. My clients are ALWAYS appreciative of my buffing their windows...
Try it and let the Sun be your guide. Im not talking real direct Sun, but enough to be your guide as you perfect and smooth the surface. You really have to have a good feel for rotary buffing or any...
Silver, the color with the least amount of pigment can be buffed to perfection if in good shape and not faded. I myself use a wool pad and let the Sun be my guide, if not too warm a day. I could show...
At a nearby shopping complex a guy holds a sign. "Will work for food" or should it say: "Will Scam you for food"? The thing is, people have stooped to new lows. Keep your money in your pocket, and...
Buff it with a rotary polisher with a wool pad and very mild polish. Polish @ about 1200 rpms. Slower if you never used a rotary. I dont use clay because I know how to rotary polish. Tape the...
But Mike, think about it you can never get close to perfect, if you don't practice. So practice certainly can make perfect. But that said I think experience tops them all. Be well! Just points to...
If I may but in here can anyone suggest the latest, very best simplest paint sealer to use. Autogeek has so many variations the list is endless. I have the Detailers pro paint coating, and I am...
Usually Benzes have one of the finest finishes to rejuve. Educate the customer about car washing. These cars are one of my favorites to do, even though they can be a challenge. Pride yourself....the...
I agree people really don't know whats involved, and are so delighted to get their s--- boxes revived. People seem to hate their cars it seems. Or their lives are so upside down, the car is the last...
You rock dude!!! Talk about the white tornado. All for such a thankless vehicle. Sorry truck lovers. I hate doing these monstrosities, and I price them accordingly. Impressive work!!! The owner must...
Ill say your dedicated.....what was the time element on that job? Great rejuvenation work! Cant teach you NUTHIN! The Fords aren't all that easy to get that nice. Did you charge enough for the...
Hello everyone. Educating my clients has been my agenda and motto since my inception. People say, aren't you fearing people will take your job? People today don't want to labor. As I hand them my...
In Winter, I rest my weary body, after the ravages of over 40 years doing "paint rejuvenation". My Chiro man said I should have quit auto polishing 25 years ago. I have very little cartilage left in...
Very nice write up!!! You always kill it Mike! I like to see a guy happy at his job. Very appropriate at this time of year. Just going out to plow eight inches of the nasty white stuff. The DP...
Any water spots can be polished off as easy as taking candy from a baby. But then I wouldn't be the "Paintxpert" if this posed any kind of a "puterbity" as I refer to a problem. As I stated many...
I have pic after pic I can show you....but the bottom line is a CW will rip your finish to shreds. Correction is never easy after you subject the finish to this cannibalism....there is no other way...
How you wash the car is the key to keeping it nice. We all do something different in this realm. I for one never wash my show cars with water. My daily driver will NEVER see the inside of a sand-wash...
Over the long haul the sealed car will retain less dirt and appear cleaner than a waxed vehicle. That has been my finding on my daily driver and well worth the effort. I have many coats of the...
When the vehicle cooled it began to condensate....normal. Likely the sealer lifted a bit prior to setting up. Nothing a damp cloth and the flat of your hand would not resolve. Sealers are much...
Put my new flex orbital to work today! That machine can do some major correction. Still learning of course and I never thought I would say this. I am impressed and still in schock! Phenomenal!!! Use...
