ooh just another day in the garage ooh baby girl what was that oh what was that oh look
I'm mark I mean oh man let me put some more marks on this car big sister walks by No
oh let me scrub them some more marks who other sister walks by Oh going to town now
hey guys welcome back to the channel if you saw that intro a clip that I had my freaking daughter
was hanging out in the garage while I was doing something out there and she grabbed the racket
and metal freaking racket and started messing with my door I got so freakin pissed and I'm so
concerned about it I started buffing it before I didn't even film it or show what happened but
that actually got done buffing it her Eddie and I realized out man I should have recorded it or at
least taking a picture of the damage so I'm going to show you what I did and what I got out of it
from her freaking hitting it with or scratching it up with a metal racket so I was using a my 3m
affected compound it's an older bottle compound I've had for a while it's the 6:08 5 compound is
the number 1 of 3 to take it out and I was using my McGuire's 101 McGuire's buffing pads up here
that there's my compound cutting pad so yeah this girl you can't see it now but yeah it was pretty
bad I thought it was you know I can still see some of it here yeah I gotten look I got it all
out but you can still see it like in in person you can still see the scratches in there I still
I wouldn't probably three or four times on that compound just to get it all out but yeah you just
got to work that compound in there and luckily I was gonna correct my paint because I've gotten
ceramic coat coming so I was gonna do it anyway so this kind of forces me to they actually do it for
the rest of the panel's but I pretty much got it all out right now all I see is in here it's like
micro scratches in there I'll get a light and kind of show a better view of it maybe with reflecting
off a light yeah you can see it right now when I put a light next to it so there's a scratch there
there's a scratch there and it was really bad this girl yeah she she kind of hit this first
spot like oh look nice line let me rub the racket on the rest of the the panel and that's what she
ended up doing so like right there you can see it there you see it here down here there's some more
scratches right there you can see it but yeah I worked that compound and pretty good so that was
only step one of three so I still gotta hit it two more times next polish on it and then the the fine
polish once that's done and that should take most of this out and then I'm gonna ceramic-coated so
hopefully that ceramic coat kind of evens out some of those deep scratches I still have to get some
wax and grease remover into there just wipe it down see if I get some of the compound residue
out and we'll go ahead and just record and then on this video just do my whole paint correction
on this car shiny as it is I've never corrected the paint or really done much to it so I've got
a lot of these little these scratches like right here well I've been working over here I guess so
I got those scratches I got some scratches here there's little minor imperfections of what you
expect from a twelve year old car I guess I'm not doing it all in one day so this would be recorded
over several days maybe weeks too depending on how much time I have I'm pretty anal about it I'm not
a detailer by any means but you know I like to do this stuff and I like to do it right I've got a
couple good YouTube channels I'll put in the link at the bottom that I've been watching just to get
some tips on detailing and paint correction and all that if you're into that kind of so
you'll see me starting off with these eight-inch pads these McGuire's pads I've had forever is it
was a three-part system what was the compound it was the polishing and then the waxing pad and I'm
using my Harbor Freight rotary this thing it's if you're not familiar with using one of these
it's very dangerous you can easily burn your paint so I would not recommend that if you're
not familiar with using one of these and you'll get impatient using it it's it's a litte work a
lot faster than like a DA or a random orbital but it you run into risk of burning your paint
and just burning paint on edges of random things not just the panel itself you know near the edges
so on other parts of this video you'll see me I actually have some Lake Country pads I read that
they were pretty as far as quality go so I've got those on order I've got a 5-inch five and
a half inch set and then I've got a three inch set the three inch said I'm gonna use for stuff
like my mirrors front of the car there you know on the bumpers all that those areas where it's
a little tighter and I don't want to use the 8 inch or the 5 inch pads I'm gonna use a 3 inch
pad you see all that compound right there all over the hood in the car this compound I was
following some of the directions to wet it that what the pad down but it still throws pretty nasty
because it's that's kind of the nature of these rotaries the rotary force ones it's gonna sling
a lot of your compound and you know getting it a wet kind of keeps it from slinging so much that's
the difference between using like a DA sander if you use a DA a random orbital its moves a
lot slower and it keeps a lot of the product closer onto the pad and you know working on
your paint but it does take longer and it takes more patience to use a DA versus of Road REE so
that's really the big difference there so you'll see me using different pads on on this rotary tool
man this stuff dust is like crazy had to wipe down the car so I'm gonna call it for a night
I basically did these two doors right here the quarter panel and the trunk lid at the top of the
trunk lid I was afraid to do too much more with those eight-inch pads I had because these little
slots right here I don't want to burn the edges so I want to wait till I get my three inch and
my five inch pads in so I can do some more this finer detail stuff I just did a light buff with
the compound but you know you can see right there see some of the scratches it wouldn't come out
what I was spraying in between every time was just regular grease and wax remover just dupli-color
I purchased that at O'Reilly Auto Parts it's like eight or nine dollars at O'Reilly or one any auto
parts store so that's that's pretty good you just wipe it on let it sit for a second and wipe it off
and it it takes off all the whack the compound in between buffing 's I'm gonna do the rest of
the panels on another day we'll never have some more time and when I get the smaller pads in I
could do pillars up here I didn't want to do too much of that because it's the you know this 8 inch
pad is just way too wide for what we need for it for this floor package of buffing pads and
all that came in the 3 inch 3 inch pads for the smaller areas they're harder to reach 5
inch wheel five and a half inch thing with this wheels I had one from Harbor Freight and I didn't
realize I had one ended up ordering another one those three pads so the orange pad is a cutting
pad black pad is like the gloss the final finish and the white pad is the polish in the middle so
it's like that would order another white pad over here but they ran out so I just ended up ordering
a black in that and a orange pad but those will really help me with the buffing and the cutting
man that was a long and tedious process to compound all the surfaces on this car
so I've already got pretty much everything compounded the front I didn't really compound
as much that paints only like 2 years old and keep it pretty clean so I just compounded the
top of it just to get some light scratches off of it and I probably could for gone most
of the compounding but I just wanted to do all the different steps so I basically wiped
everything down the thing with compounding is it leaves a bunch of swirls and you know just
parts spots where the compound was working in so now I got to go over it with the next step
which is the machine polish so the machine polish will get most of that out and then
with this 3m system there's a number three which is the ultra fine so I'll do that and hopefully
that goes a lot faster than just the regular compounding just because it's not as tedious
and you're not I mean you're gonna do the same kind of machine polishing but you don't have to
go as much on some of the spots is just kind of glazing over it with the pad and the buffer so
that was another hard couple hours of buffing so I'm number two of three now got everything from
all the contaminants out of the paint everything's nice and smooth got compound everywhere so I gotta
get on to that third step now which is kind of dreading but how to do it that's what happens
when you do the three step process I'll probably do that off-camera you guys probably saw me enough
of me time-lapse seeing through this buffing process is the same same process just you know
with number three and then once I do that I got cleaned up all the compound and everything out
of all the little spots and all that crap and then I'm gonna end up doing some ceramic coat
later once I get some more time oh yeah look at those headlights I don't forget guys I'm still
trying to give away these headlights I've got that headlight review video and install video and I've
got the metrics on there and the instructions on how to win these headlights so go check out that
video I'll have a link in the description and up in the corner here and follow directions on that
and you might have a chance to win these VLANs these custom VLANs I made a couple months ago
hey guys thanks for sticking around to the end of this video so luckily I got that damage that Abby
did to that door out on outside by compounding and buffing it and then basically doing the pink
correction for the rest of the car on this video and if you saw my other clay barn video this is
basically a follow up to clay barring where you know the clay barn is the first step you
basically remove all the dirt and residue and any contaminants on the paint and then after that you
do the paint correction where you're correcting all the imperfections and the scratches and all
that other stuff that's built up over the years especially on black paint so I went with that
three-step process and you saw two of the steps I'm going to do the third one off-camera because
you probably don't want to watch that anyways it's just a final step in and doing the ultra
fine micro polishing and after that I'm going to go with ceramic coat I'm going with the
armor shield 9 from Avalon King and that's gonna basically seal this paint make it hydroponic where
the water just flows right off of it the dirt just wipes right off of it and you know all these years
of waxing now that they've got this ceramic coat and everybody's using it that's by the way to go
especially after I've put in all this work for the paint correction so tune in next time on
one of my future episodes I'm gonna go over that whole ceramic coating process and we'll do that
and you know whatever I did on this that I'm no I'm no professional detailer so I'm just kind
of doing it I'm just reading the instructions on there I'm just doing it the way I've know how to
do it and the way I've can just kind of practice on this paint so if you want to know about real
auto detailing go to you know check out some of the auto detailing youtubers and read some forums
on that but that I just did it just because you know I wanted to do it so anyways thanks
for tuning in and I subscribe to your channel like the video and I'll see you guys next time
