Paint Enhancements As Good As Multi Step Corrections? Or Is It Really Better?

- In this video, I show what can be used for paint enhancements. Paint enhancements are the best option to freshen up aged clear coat or even single stage paintwork. Why? Its easiest on the finish overall and hardly any finish is removed in the process. In addition, hardly any effort or time is consumed getting the work done.
Papa Cut Diminishing Compound is fastest working compound ever! Created using the latest in abrasive technology, Papa Cut provides fast and effective elimination of 1200 grit or finer sand scratches. This innovative formulation and diminishing abrasive system, provides a level of cut and finishes with high gloss; haze-free finish unmatched by any other compound on the market. Papa Cut Diminishing Compound delivers outstanding gloss and Distinction of Image (D.O.I.). With an increased cycle time, ultra-gloss and swirl free finish, Papa Cut is easy to clean up with virtually no dusting and no white residue on trims. Papa Cut Diminishing Compound is silicone-free, filler-free, body shop safe and VOC compliant.
Phoenix E.O.D. Papa Cut...apexsurfacepro...
Directions: Shake well. Always try to work in a shaded area on a cool surface. Using a small quantity, apply product evenly to a 2ft x 2ft area. Using a rotary polisher with a wool, foam, or microfiber pad, slowly buff using an overlapping pattern with enough pressure to eliminate surface defects. As the compound material diminishes, finesse the paint surface - progressively using less pressure until a high gloss is achieved.

What is your "go to" for paint enhancements?
My "Go To" is Brian from Apex Auto Detailing!!! I let the Pro of Pros do it!!!! 😉
Medium to softer paint:
Rupes Yellow pad or Medium yellow wool w/ either Koch Chemie F6 ( few pea size of M302)
On harder clear: 50/50 uro fiber pad / 3D One
One pass cross hatch
Been using Sonax ultimate cut lately 😎👍
Menzerna 2500 or Sonax Perfect Finish on Uro Fiber, LC Orange, or Rupes Yellow depending on paint hardness.
Also use Sonax perfect finish and 3D 1
Yes. Just yes and that’s it.
Paint “enhancement” usually means fillers being buffed into the blemishes. Paint “correction” usually means physically buffing out the blemishes. Both offer excellent gloss, though “correcting” offers a more permanent fix. 1-step, 3-step or whatever your preferences, use caution and be profitable. $250 an hour is fairly standard, don’t undersell your worth.
👍
True that!
This is why I enjoy your channel so very much. You cater to the everyday folk. Sure it’s nice to see super cars, but the real magic lies in these simple vehicles with Outstanding Results!
Best wishes
Honestly...we prefer the daily driver owners...they spend more on their vehicles. 😀👍
That is some turnaround with the papa cut and it didn't take too long to complete, the owner must have been really impressed 👍👍
They were very happy.
Those are some great results. I may consider using this when family needs a quick refresh with their rides.
PS: I'm glad the shop manager is there, making sure everyone is doing their jobs right.
The shop manager keeps us on point! 🐶👍
WOW!!! What a huge turnaround! Glad you are enjoying the PapaCut as I honestly really enjoy it! It's amazing at finishing down especially on a harder clear like the one you are working on... 👍👍
You like it extra because of "Papa" in it's name 😁
Hell yeah!!
@@Bull1the1Great It does sound nice🤣🤣😁
Decent is an understatement - wow!
Exactly what that truck needed. Excellent combo & technique = excellent results! 👍🏼👍🏼
Thanks 👍
Yes looks great wow that was quick! Papa cut is no joke. 😮
That is an amazing result there Brian. From any sort of distance you'd think that has had a full two step correction, it looks that deep and rich!
Good job Brian, it’s always hard to leave stuff behind that you know you could fix. But that’s the way it goes in a business.
Agreed!🙂👍
I would never have thought someone could take a truck that looked that bad to any detail shop to be able to turn it around that significantly for $500. That was an amazing improvement for more than a fair price! Glad to see the doggo making a cameo as well!
Absolutely...just skip the interior...presto! 🙂👍
This was another excellent and straight to the point commentary Brian. I mostly do paint enhancements 95% of the time and appreciated your thoughts on it. Papa cut is a great product Aaron and Eric with the EOD team killed it.
I’ve had great results with Meguiar’s Ultimate Compound especially on softer clears. It has diminishing abrasives and finishes down nicely. I know its not the latest and greatest but for the money, it does a commendable job if you are on a budget.
Ultimate compound is a SMAT abrasive technology product. Unless they changed it.
the customer has to be thrilled with the improvement!
He was smiling as he drove away.
99% of the population would think it was a repaint. Enhancements are an easy sale if you do a small patch on the customer's vehicle. They see the difference and are amazed.
Outstanding job Brian! The information you provided was top notch.
I have the Papacut and shame on me for not knowing it finishes down that well on older clear cut. As always thank you for the video and the knowledge.
It has many capabilities.
Excellent. My favorite is 3D one.
This is a little less oily.
Damn.. $250 an hour. Those are my dream margins right there. I’m very happy if I can get anywhere close to $80 an hour, and honestly I really struggle to do that.
Wow Brian imaging of you actually did a two step... even with a one step looks it looks awesome.
It always amazes me how quickly you can make a neglected vehicle look so much better with a light polish. So enjoyable and rewarding!
You folks did a VERY impressive job! An odd color, when it's faded, it looks totally blah. Add some gloss and it's absolutely gorgeous.
We agree!
Major improvement! Good job guys.
Wow, that's amazing!! So many great products on the market, it's hard to choose. Looks like the entire Phoenix EOD line is top notch stuff though!
Papa Smurf Magic with the Expertise of the Apex Crew ~!! Great Turn around~! ;-)
Your ceiling looks nice in that hood….lol……amazing work as always…..proper product used correctly makes for a happy customer……your A1
Absolutely!🙂👍
The owner must have got a chubby when he showed to pick his truck up. Great job!
Hahahaha...He was happy...maybe not...that happy.
@@apexdetail85 😂
Holy cow!! 👍🏻👍🏻
Looks fantastic with short time at hand
Wow, that turnaround in less than two hours? Very impressive!
You know, I thought you and Yvan were joking about everyone there being named Brian, but I guess not…
So when someone calls asking to speak to Brian, which one answers?🤔
hahahahaa... We all answer at the same time....let the customer choose.
LOL!
I would buy that truck. It really turned out fantastic. It's a shame about car prices these days. It's not a good time to buy a new vehicle. Maybe a scooter. That PAPA cut sure is impressive. Thanks to all three Brians for sharing such a great video of a job well done.
Thank YOU good sir. 🙂👍
Really decent results! & something to remember. 👍🇨🇦
I think it looks awesome for an enhancement! Papa Cut means business. Nice job!
Puppy is NOT enthused, LOL!!
She just wanted to relax and nap on this day. lol 🐶👍
I’ve been using PapaCut with an LC Orange. I’m going to have to try the 50/50 Urofibre
That is unbelievable! Thank you so much
Awesome results with the PapaCut.
Great Job for the time allowance
Holy dang! That's really good for a "quick" job. I bet the customer was quite pleased. Possibly even questioning if it's the same truck. Lol
Excellent as always Brian ✊Looks like an easy product to work with👍🏽
Is removes a lot of the quess work for beginners.
I broke out my old favorite "cutting" pad - the green Buff and Shine. I grabbed my old Porter Cable 7424xp, and some 3D ONE and the turn around was fast and glossy.
It hurts a bit to not do the full correction, but it wasn't what was paid for or promised. A black 2002 Camaro Z28.... Probably best to preserve as much clear as possible and let the CarPro Lite do it's magic.
I much prefer the Porter Cable to my Rupes tools. Doesn't make sense, but I just work better and more efficiently with it....
The shorter throw on your PC will always give the better finish.
In this case yes. The dingy finish was chemical/fallout. A jeweling after the shine restored would transform it to a 'show' like result.
Great job Brian! To me, it seems to be all I need to maintaince the look of my car. It look really great.
Great job sir i love enchantments
Wow.huge turn around. Awesome job and video.b well good friend
Big thanks
Great turnaround Brian! These types of videos I’d love to get the customer’s reaction to, you visually revived his truck! Not sure if many customers are game for that, but I think it’d add a nice touch to this flavor video. 😎
Very nice job. I see the adorable shop manager approved. On a job like this, how many pads did it require? Cool turn around.
One pad. Clean it out before each pass. The manager keeps us on point. 🐶👍
Wow! Amazing work!
Wow!!! Very impressive!!
That's what I like the most, not much overthinking, and yet, great results...
Absolutely!
Mighty fine work guys!
Thank you!
Wow! Excellent job. Wish I could bring you my cars
Love it !
Beautiful results.
Classy as always Brian. Keep it up 👍🏼 Appreciate you.
Thank you....Cheers!
Brian’s got that gloss sauce working for him papa cut!
Simply Stunning!! I think it turned out 👍
That's amazing
That looks fantastic.
Cheers!
Amazing results on that paint. Wow!
Super turnabout!!!
A stunning turn-around for a couple of hours with the right pad/polish combination. Id be interested to understand In a head to head how does PapaCut line up against 3D ONE ?
Not quite the cut....but finishes down better and less oily.
Wow! That's good stuff.
Great job. Customer will be pleased
Great instructive video. Thanks for posting.
My go to is 3d one with euro fiber or for protection t.w ceramic polish with orange lake county pad. Question Brian how do you determine when to use a D/A polisher vs a forced rotation on a project? Great job and turn around on that truck 2 hours 👏
They all get the job done....I switch up regularly to keep things fresh so to speak. Its subjective.
Awesome turn around 👍 Client reaction would be nice to see
I try as often as possible. Many are too camera shy.
Yep nice
Nice turnaround Brian
Thanks 👍
@@apexdetail85 Hi Brian I just ordered the papa cut I’m looking forward to trying it out thanks 😊
Awesome results in a shot time👊👍
Incredible results!!
OUTSTANDING!!
Fantastic as always.
Great bang for the buck
Wow 😯 great job guys! I love seeing these types of videos. Always informative and helpful.✨👏
Glad you enjoyed it!
@@apexdetail85 I enjoy all of your videos. I look forward to all your post. I think I have watched the one ☝️ with older corvette like 5 times! I love seeing your shop manager-Dog in all your videos ☝️✨💦👏
Outstanding truck looked so much better. You all do great work
Thanks 👍
Great results and should satisfy the owner’s desire to renew his truck.
Agreed.
Looks 👍🏼 nice!
Looks fantastic!
Phenomenal results! Hellofa enhancement 🏆
Worked great!
1st from 🇨🇦
Looks great but I prefer mama cut!
Looks like a different truck! Great job.
Thanks 👍
Great video! How is papcut different from 3D One, TW 1 and done, TLC, F6, etc?
Slightly less cut...but better finish. Also less oily.
Great job and result. What was the customer's reaction?
He was smiling as he drove off the lot. 🙂👍
how many uro pads did you use on the truck and how do you clean them afterwards? also how many microfiber towels did you use to buff off the truck and can you wash the towels with all your other microfiber towels for glass and interior? thanks
🤩
What brand of cordless polisher are you using?
Shinemate
How does this compare to 3D One or Turtle Wax One and Done?
How would the lake county low lint wool work instead of the euro fibre?
Hey could we use this for yellow headlights? Or is a multistep better?
Have you tried out the Chemical Guys All in one Polish and Sealant?
Can you use a topper on a AIO ? Like a 3D Bead it up ?
You sure can.
Brian , have you ever tried a 50/50 pad on a rotary tool?
I personally stay away from microfiber on a rotary.
Nice..
Thank you! Cheers!
Would you please do a video on when you should use the Green, White and Black pressure washer nozzles on a car? Thank you.
Was this vehicle sanded before polishing?
WoW good job 👍
Thank you! Cheers!
Do you prefer thi over 3D One?
