where was the scratch located on the vehicle, a crease or just on open panel? how long did you compound in that spot for and how many times? To check and see if your clear is compromised, I would...
I only say sanding in the case that he has a coating like crystal serum that wont remove with just a polish. Other than that i wouldn't touch sandpaper.
if it was me, I would try essence plus and see if that will knock any of that out (without removing your coating). If not, i would just completely polish or sand if needed, and reapply again. I would...
Does anybody in this thread know how much CSL and EXO is used for each vehicle, I have a Toyota tundra which is pretty much a full sized truck. Do i need a 30ml bottle, or do i need a 50ml bottle?...
Smart approach. I would stick with that. Its a professional way to look at body repair and body matching. 90% of the time you can tell a textured panel from a non textured panel. It would almost be...
There's only a small percentage of shops that have the expertise to spray no orange peel, it takes a very good painter. 80% of the time you are wet sanding to match other panels, and if your not...
Let me rephrase that, i buy it and deliver it to my own house. I fill up two 55 gallon drums and then i back my truck up on some ramps to elevate my truck higher than the tank, and then i am able to...
I use RO water to wash all my vehicles. Ever since using it i will never go back. I have a 300 gallon tank at my house that i fill up with RO water that i buy locally for about .18 cents a gallon. I...
you would sand a freshly painted panel to take out the orange peel sprayed and get rid of the "trash" in the paint, or even to texture match to a existing panel. different grits leave different...
Does anybody top CSl and EXO with carpro reload? if not, what kind of topper do y'all use? Not really to sure if anybody does. Any suggestions and feedback would be great.
They still say you can leave for hours, but they don't say anything about their cleaner on plastic pieces on the wheel or anything. That would maybe be my only concern.
actually, when I tried this wheel cleaner on my truck, it kind of stained the plastic center cap. I have off road wheels on my truck. I let the wheel cleaner sit on there for thirty minutes. Probably...
when i'm in the driveway cleaning cars, i have products spread out all over the ground and everywhere, microfiber towels always get dropped. I figured a cart would allow me to keep track of...
I am in dire need of a cart to carry all my products on. Any time I do a detail or paint correction job, I make a mess and it causes me to be a little inefficient. Rags and bottles get knocked over...
from my understanding, it would be in best interest to use a open cell foam cutting pad (as stated above). This will help with the loads of oxidation and paint you are pulling off. A foam pad can...
I had my run in on tinted clear coat as well. I had a test hood off of a new model Buick that i used to test different compounds and pad variations. After i had used the rupes UHS compound and pad, i...
