Re: 2020 Stuart Corvette Club Ceramic Coating Class at Autogeek
Continued....
Had a great class this last Saturday, March 8th, 2020 with the members of the Stuart Corvette Club. Two of the members volunteered their Corvettes to be our training cars as we don't teach classes on demo hoods, we train on the REAL-DEAL.
And considering this is the first time any of these guys has installed a ceramic paint coating, when you see the results, I think you'll agree... they did a stellar job for their first time!
Here's the club members using SONAX Glass Cleaner as a waterless wash to remove any light dirt and dust and to also help remove any previously applied, waxes, sealants or the ingredients used in spray detailers. Basically the idea being to remove anything that would keep PAINTERS TAPE from sticking to the plastic trim and paint. This is why I don't use most waterless washes or spray detailers to PREP a car for detailing and that's because MOST of these products LEAVE SOMETHING BEHIND THAT MAKES TAPE NOT STICK TO PAINT AND PLASTIC.
Think about it - if a glass cleaner will leave a STREAK-FREE FINISH ON GLASS - that kind of means it's not leaving anything behind. Plus SONAX Glass Cleaner is just a great product for dang near any wiping needs.
FREE-FOR-ALL TOOL CHOICE
I laid out ALL the current and popular tools on the market today, walked the class through each of the tools explaining what they are and how they work plus how much they cost, and then let them choose which tool they wanted to use for the paint correction step. That's why you see so many different tools being used on both cars - I let the guys decide which tool they wanted to use.
The Forrest Green Edgeless towels are what I call my PAINT CARE TOWELS. It's real simple, I use these for touching paint on the finishing side of a process. They have a flat weave and are low risk for contamination like long weave or plush microfiber towels.
At this point in the day, the guys are now installing the BLACKFIRE Pro Ceramic Coating.
And here are the results!
Product used in this class
SONAX Glass Cleaner for our Waterless Wash
BLACKFIRE Clay Lube
BLACKFIRE Clay
BLACKFIRE Polish
BLACKFIRE Paint Prep
BLACKFIRE Pro Ceramic Coating
Towels used were,
Cobra 530 for waterless wash and removing clay lube residue
GYEON Bald Wipes for using with the BLACKFIRE Paint Prep
Forrest Green Edgeless Microfiber Towels for removing any high spots and the final buff
Nice work guys!
Thank you for trusting Autogeek!
