What’s up everybody?
Today, in the Detail Garage, we have something special for you supercar fans.
This is a factory matte black (although I know it is not called matte black, we are
going to call it matte black today).
This is a Lamborghini Aventador.
Awesome supercar.
It’s got over 700 hp.
Big V12 motor and as you can see, it’s got this really cool, crisp matte black finish.
Now, the owner brought it in because he recently had it coated with PPF and if you don’t
know what that stands for, it stands for Paint Protection Film, but it needs some kind of
cleaning and proper rejuvenation so that it doesn’t peel and doesn’t discolor and
also so it can maintain this matte black finish.
That’s why we grabbed Wrap Detailer.
This works for any kind of wrap.
It works for glossy and matte.
You can use it on graphics and you can use it on your protective films.
All you have to do is basically spray it on the surface and then wipe if off with a clean
microfiber towel.
I’ve chosen the Workhorse Line because this is a nice, soft blended towel that will wipe
away any kind of dirt, bird droppings, or anything else that’s on the surface without
scratching it.
Now, we’re going to begin here on the top, just like we do on any detail.
Simply spray it on and we will give it just a couple of moments to trap anything that’s
on the surface.
This way we are not scratching it because even though a clear bra or film is meant to
absorb the scratches, we still want to make it look its best.
So, we are just going to wipe in one direction and as I’m wiping, I’m also rolling the
towel, which is creating a new edge, so we are not grinding that dirt into the finish.
If you’ve ever used a quick detail spray or waterless wash, if you have one dark edge,
basically all you’re doing is pulling that dirt along the surface, creating tiny little
scratches and swirls so what you should have is an even layer of dirt on the surface.
Then, you can flip the towel to the clean side, you don’t necessarily have to, but
every so often, you’re going to need to find a clean edge.
Again, we will just continue going in straight lines, rolling the towel.
This is especially important when you’re working on flat panels like the roof or hood
because this is where dirt typically lands.
It’s harder for dirt to stick to the sides of the vehicle, whereas on the top it’s
very simple.
It’s just going to land and that’s where it’s going to sit.
This car is really low which makes it really simple to detail.
It’s kind of a small car too, although it’s really wide, but we are going to make it look
its best.
I’m just flipping the towel over to a clean side to buff off the excess and reveal that
nice and crisp factory look.
We’re also buffing away any streaks although it doesn’t look like there are any, but
still, we’ll give it the best look.
You can also use Wrap Detailer on your glass, whether it’s been coated or not.
This one actually does have a film on the glass, but you can use it on regular windows
and windshields and anything like that.
We’re using the same technique of rolling the towel and then we are going to flip it
over to a clean side and then buff off any excess.
Now, today, for the sake of demonstration purposes, we are going to keep moving down
the vehicle.
I’ll do just a small section of each panel.
We just did it on the top.
We did it on the windows, but see down here, you have all these bugs and splatter?
This, if left untreated, is going to eat away at the clear bra or your protective film,
so it’s great to get that off before it can do any damage since there’s acid in
the little guts of the bugs and they’re kind of abrasive.
We’ll give this a chance to sit and emulsify and it will soften up any harder particles.
Now, we will just wipe it off.
You can see that it’s left behind just a little bit of residue.
That’s why we come back and buff it off to reveal that nice, clean, and perfectly
protected surface.
So, as you guys can see, just by doing a simple wipe down, it has made a huge difference.
Now, obviously, this car wasn’t super dirty, but you’re still going to get that light
layer of dust or debris or anything else that can harm the PPF and we want to take care
of that so we used Wrap Detailer.
That safely pulled off anything that’s on the surface and it’s also adding UV blockers
so it’s also going to discolor or peel over time.
Now, one more last thing that’s great about Wrap Detailer is you can use it on your wheels.
Now, this car has black wheels that match the vehicle giving it this really sinister
look.
Again, all we are going to do is spray it directly on the surface and this is going
to help encapsulate any of the abrasive particles of brake dust that are highly corrosive.
You want to get them off the surface as fast as possible.
Grab a fresh microfiber towel and starting at the top, work your way down and around
the wheel.
This is going to pull of any of that dirt and debris that was sitting on the top of
the surface and again, it’s going to give you that UV blocker, so it won't deteriorate
or fade over time.
What’s great about the UV blockers is that it’s going to prevent any kind of discoloration
or fading over time.
You can simply wipe it off.
You don’t need to bring out a bucket and hose or brush to clean your wheels.
It basically just cleans up the surface and face of them so that they can look their best.
You can see it’s got these mixed brakes back there, the carbon ceramics, so they kick
up a decent amount of brake dust.
High performance braking tends to do that kind of thing.
As you can see, it pulls off anything that’s on the surface and now it’s clean and protected.
So, I’m going to finish off the rest of this Aventador and in the meantime, you guys
can head over to you website, chemicalguys.com to pick up your bottle of Wrap Detailer.
A lot of you guys nowadays have wraps or different kinds of wrap combinations all over your vehicles,
which is a great way to enhance the look of it and also personalize it without having
to paint it.
Now, I’m going to finish on this side of the vehicle, but if you guys like this car
or video, be sure to give it a thumbs up and we will see you next time right here in the
the Detail Garage.
