Preparing the Beast! AMG GT R PPF | GARAGE

- Let's prepare the beast! I ordered my AMG GT R with straight black paint because it makes the best base for a colour change vinyl wrap in future, however upon seeing it for the first time I decided it absolutely has to stay looking stealthy and menacing for a while! That meant that rather than risking any damage to the paint, a trip to Topaz was on the cards to prepare the paintwork and install PPF to keep it pristine throughout the upcoming trips and full-on daily usage. The question is though, how long should I keep it black, or should I wrap it and if so, what colour?!
Ahead of the official collection day I headed down to Mercedes-Benz Brentford to sign the paperwork and ensure everything was completed for a smooth handover with Nico Rosberg when we would return. It also meant loading the car into Topaz's own transportation to take it over for preparation. The biggest advantage of that is eliminating the chance of a stone chip on the short journey over (which has happened to me very early in a car's life before) while also planning ahead for potential horrible weather in the UK at this time of year.
At Topaz, the car underwent a detailing process to remove imperfections in the factory paint. This is standard with any car as perfect paintwork is a hugely manual process and no brand can do it in full simply due to the time and cost required. With then an installation of Paint Protection Film to the vulnerable front, lower side and impact areas, you also lock in a wonderful paint finish underneath to always look great going forwards.
For this part, we thought it would be interesting to hand the camera over to Nabil Naamo, co-founder of Topaz to walk through the paces and explain everything that's being done to the car. You can also find out more about Topaz with the following links:

Shmee150 Another great video! Thoroughly enjoy your videos Tim, keep it up! 👍
purple matte
Metallic black to give it sparkle is just that bit better for me!
Clear wrap to protect that awesome car?.....looks beautiful and a V8 is always a winner.
I bet you didn't expect to make the big reveal in company of the reigning F1 World Champion, uh?
Nabil is very passionate. Seems a great choice of company Tim. He knows his stuff when it comes to detailing and products. He did a great job of this video!
This Nabeel guy really knows what he's talking about. Very professional.
Topaz are top notch. The owner videoing himself the entire process of wrapping is top quality video. Love understanding the process. Well done topaz you guys should have your own channel if you haven’t got one already. 10/10
This guy is great on camera. Shooting and narrating like a pro
Ryan Moy no other channel like it
James Leonard i think he meant the guy talking about the protection not shmee lol
The owner seems like a really nice guy, and I loved the insight he gave. Nice video!
Nabil did an incredible job! Thanks for including that segment, really good to learn about the process. Will definitely do a full PPF on my next car.
Just the video I wanted to see. Love seeing the PPF process.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Yeah, that was awesome.
That’s car is stunning , so glad your holding of wrapping it!!
Rori paddison He's Gonna Wrap It One Day
Seems weird seeing a shmee number plate on a black car
Rori paddison 💯
It looks awesome but he needs to black out the chrome parts an the wheels. Would look so much better
Nice video, i like that you give people you appreciate the chance to show the process to public. As someone working with cars, i enjoyed this video a lot.
You nailed the spec on this one. It looks so good in black. Also, it was very nice of the founder of Topaz to take us through the steps of the paint protection and how it is done.
This AMG is beautiful as it is, put the protection on it to protect the paint, I think on any reason to change the color with a wrap. Enjoy your new car!
AT 7 min mark you can hear the excitement in the detailers voice that he has such a magnificent car in his shop to work on. WHAT AN AWSOME LOOKING VEHICLE. but the owner must be a car freak when he talks about his other hot cars he has. What an awesome job done. looks fantastic.
Your black GTR beside the black Porsche in the detail booth made for quite a stunning pair!
It is so cool you included the detailing part in your vid! Can’t believe how many swirls and holograms the brand new car had! Awesome work by the way! Congrats and enjoy your beast!
Thank you :)
Total respect to Nabil for his knowledge and equally importantly his enthusiasm for what he does. It's a rare commodity.
I love that employee. He seems really nice. It was nice of him voluntarily recording the process.
Brilliant work by Nabil, both on the car and with the video. Congratulations on the GT-R Tim, thanks for sharing the journey with us!
He did an awesome job of showing each step
So glad you are keeping it black, looks great and Nabil was very good with his explanation of the process.
I'm actually in love with your AMG GTR, the spec is mega, and the black, yellow and Carbon Fibre go so well. Im looking forward to a bold wrap colour aswell...
I said the same thing when I saw your collection video. That thing looks soooooo good that I couldn't imagine wrapping it. Glad you'll keep it stock for a while at least. Looks so sweet.
when it reverses under the shadow of the truck man it loks menacing, even form the back
this video is quasi advertisement, but no matter really, the explanation is enjoyable by itself being delivered by such a hyper and funny guy.
I can't believe how good it looks! Could it be the best looking GTR I've seen by now?! Quite possibly! How can it possibly look better in any other color, I don't know, but I doubt it! Great job by Nabil, such a great guy!
What a beauty! Congratulations Shmee! Keep us updated. You are a superb narrator of video. Thanks.
The spec of that grey GT3 at 5.40 is pure perfection
The GT R looks cool but I can’t wait for the 991.2 GT3
Another amazing video ☺ Im excited too, lets see what amazing things you do with "The Beast" I love your channel Tim (Been watching for at least 3 years now 👍) Keep it up! Ed
Hope you reply 😊
R8 days 😉
I’m really loving the spec on your GTR, can’t wait to see your 991.2 GT3
yes looking forward to the gt3
wonder what color?
WHAT THE FUCK how many cars he's buying??
i bet miami blue
I'll reveal the spec very soon! Eyes peeled guys
Shmee150 nice man! what job you doing in the week days shmee?😀 sry if am asking:)
You were smart to hand over the camera to Nabil, he does an excellent presentation. A very professional service offered by Topaz.
I said it in the collection video that it looks amazing in black and happy to hear you're keeping it that colour for the time being, good choice imo
It looks incredible especially next to your gt8. Dream garage
his car collections, just my dream...
Love this car .....Looks and sounds absolutely breathtaking......
Much nicer looking and sounding than the pro....
Absolute beast..
The paint really looks better after this I'm quite impressed. And congratulations for your Gtr Tim it's beautifully spect
WOW! OMG the clear protection film looks amazing!
Alright Schmee- who can I go to if I wanted to do my car like yours to get taken care from Topaz since I am in Texas - need your help
so much detail care and attention goes into protecting this car and looking its best brilliant job at topaz if i ever have a car like this you will be the guys to contact.
Loved Nabil's enthusiasm. Would love to see him feature more often.
Really interesting to learn of all the defects that can come from factory. Looks great, and I think this is my favourite in your fleet now.
Tim you should be proud ..that man did great job with car, and amazing job with camera!!
Love this car, color and accents. Would not want it any other way. Great video and your co-host isn't camera shy either. All good.
That black color is stunning on this car
Schmee150 this looks excellent in black glad you are keeping it like this at least in the short term .So many you tubers never seem to be happy with the colour they spec their cars in .I vote for the black to remain.
Car is bloody stunning, and Topaz have done a wonderful job on the paintwork
Nabil's awesome.
Michael Burns true.
yeah.. great presentation and witty too
agreed, a great guest for the channel!
thats what she said
Michael Burns He is. He is of Palestinian origin too.
The black is incredible coolest gtr I’ve seen
one of the best video on this channel. i love the amount of useful information. thanks for sharing those details with us!
Love the yellow plate with those yellow accent. It would look mental in matte silver with yellow/black accent
Congratulations Tim I like the way you intergate your service depts 👏
You did a good color choice shmee. I really like the black more than green or some other colors. This channel is great and I wish you the best. Always with great content.
Such a natural video, naturally I really enjoyed! Gonna leave a natural like on this beast!
Congrats Tim, a truly beautiful car. Hope to see many more in the garage in the future :)
Thank you
Hand on heart you always seems to pick right color for the cars.
Car looks amazing 👍
I fell in love with the AMG GT R and your spec looks so badass. Can you please collab with the owner of Topaz everytime you get a car ppfed or wrapped because he seems like a very good guy and it's fun to learn more about that industry.
Very interesting video Tim, whole process nicely explained. The car is looking just Amazing... Woooow!!!! 👍👍👍👍👍
Interesting insights by Nabil ! Well done.
Haha Shmee is so chilled when he goes to pick up his cars now. I would likely have to be carried away in a stretcher after that unveiling.
Loved the videos this weekend shmee, I think the yellow is really cool for a wrap.
I dont know why but I feel so happy watching shmee with this new car.
Great explanation Nabil!
You did a great job filming the processes and explaining what's going on.
That's awesome Tim and congratulations. Hope to see many more videos of the AMG GT R and your excursions together!
There so much in that beast! Best looking spec on the road!
The workers in the body shop are excellent
BIG UPs TIM FROM TIM IN DALLAS, TEXAS! YOUR DETERMINATION AND AMBITION HAVE DEFINITELY PAID OFF IN SPADES ( Black Ace ) Enjoy the many Miles Ahead! CHEERS.
Nabil did an awesome job explaining !
I love your current content, keep it up and cheers from Czech republic!
It looks best out in the sun light, very nice spec🤤
That the best specced car i,ve seen from Shmee! love it.
Really enjoy the detailing videos, great car!! 👍🏼🚗
The best way to prepare a brand new car
Amazing job at Topaz!!!
Congratulations Tim
It's funny, when you said you were going to get this black spec I was thinking you should just keep it in the black. Glad you saw it and thought the same thing. I know you said you'd probably wrap it at some point but I hope you keep it black for a long time. It looks fantastic.
This shows how ”bad” the factory paint is from new but then again normal people don’t even notice those defects so it makes no financial sense for car manufacturers to do this level of detailing themselves. Maybe they could offer this as an option, Topaz could be the official partner for sure. Great work and a great car!
Very Nice with the chrome details, much cleaner than all black
Good to see our cars at Topaz side by side Tim, enjoy your ride...
Good thing you are in Europe. Here in Canada during the winter they put rocks on the road, those rocks will rip right through your PPF
I have to say what a lucky bastard. Absolute beast!!!!
Do more with Nabeel. Damn he's better than most RUclipsrs with a camera
The black looks so good i think you should keep it, it looks so Nice in that black!
Amazing car Shmee! Enjoy every second with it!
when you get ready to wrap it i think a matte or satin royal purple would look amazing
I hope your are going to wrap it in a beautiful yellow and blacks details in the future :D congrats Tim, this car is awesome
Great explanation from Nabil! Love this kind of Videos!
I think it was a cool way of showing the process!
Love Love Love this car keep doing this thing Shmee👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
10/10 spec, breathtaking!
I'm not a Mercedes person, but this is a nice car. They did very well on this vehicle.
Proper proper car. Enjoy. You're going to have a GT3, GT R, and GT8. Wow
Congratulations on your new mean machine!!
very clean, looks like melted steal under that light very nice!!☺
Traction control dial is awesome
oh God...that first shot of it reversing after the polish......dribble!
Looking great mate, congratulations
had to be a tough decision on the color. That green is just stunning.
Beautiful, well done for the detail and wrap!
Stunning car up there with the 675LT IMO
SO Beautiful! Great choice Shmee!
Brilliant video by topaz don't rap it Tim it looks stunning
Nabil EXCELLENT VIDEO !!! Your work is Really Impressive Excellent Work!!
Stealth it out more! with black trim etc. i know alejandro already did that to his but an all black would look so amazing
Shmee, i love the GTR. Love love love it! And the videos about it are awesome. Keep it up
Hi Tim, after watching this and the previous video, I think that black suits the AMG better than all the shouty colours you see all over the place on youtube.
