    I don't think my friend is detailing correctly

    I told him to use a slower speed and to let the machine do the work not press against the body of the car with pressure, who is right?>

    well I tried to tell him before I started filming how to do it correctly, but he wouldn't listen me. And I knew he would get mad if I filmed me criticizing him so I tricked him.

    Unhappy Re: I don't think my friend is detailing correctly

    This is what I saw

    Well first thing he can do is throw out the towels in his back pocket he was dragging on the ground in the garage when " buffing" the paint. What does he have there Walmart cleaning towels?

    I feel so bad for that car. Use less product work SOOOOO MUCH slower , work in a 2 by 2 foot area only.. didn't break down anything, didn't clean anything just hazed the paint. Tell him to hire someone that is gonna love his paint better than him ..LOL

    I can't get over the towel thing...

    Just look at all the garbage on the hood and windshield, you guys didn't even bother to wash it . That car is not cared for at all and this video is a joke. You have too much time on your hands

    Your friend is risking paint damage due to his lack of care with the swinging cord that keeps smacking into the very paint he is trying to correct. No point in correcting paint just to mess it up with the cord.
