5-Day Detailing Job With a Master Detailer - Alpina B7: Project Chicago: Part 17
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 2 апр 2023
- In this episode, Alpina B7 gets royal treatment by @GYEON_official. We go in-depth on detailing, paint correction, maintenance and car washing techniques with the detailing guru Yves Heylen. This video is a goldmine with useful detailing tips as we work our way through project Chicago's paint. Besides complete paint correction, the car gets the front end covered with PPF by Stef Bijnen. The end result is astonishing, as this once cheap, neglected Supercharged V8 becomes a literal mirror on wheels!

The sheer difference between the scratched up multi-hued beast that arrived from Chicago and this supermodel of a car - night and day. Hats off to you and the Gyeon team.
Woaw.. first time when Streten was blown away i really learn myself some few tricks to wash the car properly and few polishing techniques..
We absolutely love this channel that really grow and needs to grow bigger because this is how cars should be done properly on each step..
100% - And Larry is a Master!
I genuinely had no idea I would watch a car be made from "good" to "mint" over the space of an hour but here I am!
Brilliant job.
I thought the car was from gary indiana next to chicago
@@fefefefe3101 Nope. On Patreon he says where it is from and it's a suburb of Chicago.
Damn, looks like the guys over at Gyeon know their stuff even better than the biggest automotive detailing channels on YT.
Larry over at AMMO NYC better take note... this guy was a joy to watch, such enthusiasm and MIND-BLOWING attention to detail!
@@HorrorUberAlles Check out white details for a true master detailer.
That's the difference between RUclips and the real world.
@@HorrorUberAlles Larry has videos that go just as deep as this has, especially the older ones. The older ones had a lot more info like this video, IMO. The newer ones feel like they are more geared towards pleasing the RUclips algorithm
I would say the only detailer on YT who does his job with this level of attention to detail is Sandro from Car Craft Auto Detailing. He is the absolute pinnacle of the detailing world.
How much of a humble guy is Yves!?!
But an actual master of his craft.
I think Yves needs a channel all of his own, super humble but super talented, and reasons every move with common sense. Thank you Yves! 🙌
Just search the Detailing Guru and you will be entertained for hours with his expertise
I’ve been restoring cars for years and the biggest challange is to find a good body shop. You can find good mechanic, good detailer, good machine shop but it is really hard to find good body shop. The shop painted this car needs more appreciation. Even a special episode. Absolutely perfect job!
The paint work was pure quality ..
I struggle with finding good mechanic
Good mechanic is WAY harder than good body shop.
Body shops are much rarer in general. Also normal people will never pay 5K to fix some minors dents to perfection on a single part so It's hard to establish yourself in the high end market.
does anybody have the contact or name of the shop for paint & bodywork?
The best thing the Geyon guy said, " It's a team effort!".
Best guy ever. That's how you keep a GREAT company, with happy employes!.
Sreten congrats on BMW Classic group video. It's amazing how much you achieved in such a short time, kudos to you my friend
I don't like detailing because it's expensive, but i definitely wouldn't mind paying money for detailing with this guy. His understanding on the work, his attention to detail, the amount of work he did, and the final result is just the best I've ever seen.
Its really not. Surely if you want to do it to the same extend as shown in the video you would need to buy all the equipment first but you can get into detailing without spending much money.
I’ve seen a shit ton of detailers and videos on YT, but I can without a doubt say that Gyeon can put all of the other detailers to sleep. Absolutely INSANE knowledge, technique and passion from their end, BRAVO!
White Details if you into this stuff.
Ammo is not that bad .. but yes gyeon guy killed them
This was incredible. I feel like you've gone into more detail than even AMMO NYC in this video. Great job.
No disrespect to Larry since he's been doing a fantastic job in his videos and his work speaks for itself, but this guy absolutely STEAMROLLED him in regards to attention to detail!
Ammo doesn't even come close
@@HorrorUberAlles agree, he talk alot and try to make it more complicated then it really is. This guy is a real pro.
@@HorrorUberAlles Yep, ammo makes it seem complicated. Real pros make something very hard look incredibly easy, this guy is an actual master.
Ammo always does a tires-off detail. But this dude is next level.
Not just a masterclass in detailing, also in marketing. Gyeon gets it! 👍
You can learn more about Yves, his background, and his passion here. What an amazing, humble human! - ruclips.net/video/Scurs1fPuy4/видео.html
Followed this project from very beginning this man and the team working on it deserves a medal 🏅
This is spectacular! BMW should give you an offer for this car to be placed in their museum. Bravo, Sreten for your dedicated and committed to precision work. I’ve been always inspired from a persons like you. Greetings from your neighbourhood in Bulgaria!
I think they only want BMW´s in their garage...
@@johankleist872 BMW now owns Alpina so technically Alpina's can also go in BMW museum
It would be a waste to lock this away in a BMW museum.
@@wrongmark exactly my thoughts!
I felt the same way like you did, when I received my fully detailed carbon black e39 530i like 5 years ago, it was scary to drive 😄This Alpina B7 probably is the most valuable Alpina B7 in the world right now. The final outcome of this project just blown all expectations
The detailing knowledge is so hard to come across these days from a professional, no hidden tricks, all clear and simple yet astonishing ❤
I just finished watching the entire series, and wow what a massive effort from yourself and everyone who took a part in restoring this troublesome but brilliant car. It truly is more than the sum of just its parts, it's a showcase of the collaboration and determination that you and everyone else displayed.
Well done for a great result, and well done for having what I think is the best channel on RUclips.
Most importantly though, none of this could have been achieved without your excellent camera man, and the cricket under the workbench.
This is not a video, this is a masterclass!
Thank you Sreten and Gyeon!
as someone who was a professional detailer in a high end detail / body shop for almost 7 years, this video really brought me back to the time period where i had finally honed my skills as a detailer, and when detailing did not feel like a job, but something more akin to a "high-end hobby", where i would look forward to going to work and playing a part in the transformation of a vehicle from a dud to a stud. hats off to you and the Gyeon guys for the master class.
@@Tipo-F120b correct. mostly age. as someone with 3 fractured vertebrae, it isn't the easiest on your body to be contorted for half the day. also, unfortunately, new management came along and sucked the fun out of the whole process. it became a job again.
I bet your garage is full of CLEAN cars though!
@@kelly00000111111 "New management". They ALWAYS kill all the fun of your job.
I'm 55 and get tired Detailing my own car. All by hand and turtle wax 🐢
As much as I admire the work done in this video, I would use the opportunity to give kudos to Arthur and his team that did a phenomenal job with painting this trud! Well done everyone! Stunning results!
On the first minutes of this episode: Oh c'mon! I'm not gonna watch hour of a "car washing". 10 minutes later: Wow, I do not even know how to wash car properly!. As a result - another awesome episode! Many things learned. Masterpiece and perfection is what happens when two (or more) people, who love their jobs and stuff they are spending time on meets together! As always - thank you so much for educating people!
I know I’m probably alone here, but this is still my favourite one of Sreten’s cars. It’s just such a beast, but so luxurious and beautiful looking. The E66 LCI really does look good now to my eyes.
This detail is insane, I’m so glad there are people out there who do this stuff because I would never have the patience!
It's much more than patience. It's skill, art, and an eye for perfection. Like Yves said, it's never perfect, but he can be satisfied with 99%.
I'm torn between this and the 850. The lines on the 850 are better with that long hood for the v12 but these Bangle-designed models are growing on me. Especially this incredible paint color.
You most certainly are not alone. I also like this and the 850 Project Marseille in equal measure.
I hate this car... I would burn it and enjoy watching it burn, after all the misery that came with it. But still, I'm glad to see it fixed and shiny 😁👍👍
You are definitely not alone. I love this car too!
I have a feeling it may just become Sreten's favorite too.
This guy's knowledge and attention to detail is out of this world, by the time you are finished with the Alpina it'll become a museum piece.
@@yyy-875 after watching the saga of this car, it would be a shame to retire in a museum. Let Sretan put at least 30k on it before it retires.
What an episode. My jaw was on the floor the entire time. I thought I washed my car better than most, but this put me on the bottom on how much stuff goes into detailing and washing your car. Yves is truly a master at his craft. He talks about it with so much passion and he goes in such detail, it is astonishing to just hear all the little details you often never pay attention to. Well done! And Sreten as always, this was so mesmerizing to watch.
Incredible how passionate Yves is about his work. It restores faith in humanity to watch someone who actually cares about what they do with so much attention to detail and making sure the job is done correctly and accurately.
WOW!!! These two doing a car together will GUARANTEE a TOP NOTCH JOB!!! You can even pick up that Sreten's brain is getting overloaded with Gyeon's knowledge in the middle of the video!! LOVE IT!!!
I listened your interview in BMW Classic and you said that you were going to sell this car... But man... You have too keep it for life😢 What a car, what a project, what a man you are. Thank you for all this videos.
I'm lucky to say I get to call Yves and Stef colleagues and have worked with them on multiple projects for GYEON. Both at the top of their games, also so passionate and willing to share their extensive knowledge. Great video, bravo!
I am not lucky.
Yves is the master!!!! So good to see a feature length detailing documentary with Yves. Hope more people can see his work and the quality of Gyeon with this video
From being Winnie the turd to becoming the nicest car you own. We all remember the grief you had with this car, especially breaking down on the side of the road. Massive turn around. Your perseverance with this project has resulted in possibly the best B7 in existence.
The work you have done to this car exceeded my expectations. You have dedication, i hope things just get better for you and your channel grows more.
if there ever is a "kid in a candyshop" vibe for a car guy, it's when you where walking through the warehouse and Yves was putting all kinds of detailing equipment to the bag :D. made me jealous and happy at the same time :D
Thank you for restoring these beautiful cars and making such amazing content of it!
The man Yves is an expert and a joy to watch. Sreten, after meeting him and learning from him, you better not have a dirty car again 😂
The guys from Poland really set this car up to sparkle beautifully in the sunshine thanks to Gyeon. I think Sreton will need a whole day to drool over it when the window trim and badges go back on! Can't wait for his other projects to benefit from his newly-learned techniques.
I started watching Mat Armstrong but this Channel is so much better. Better humour and you can learn something about fixing cars.
I love this channel!
Just when you thought you knew how to “properly wash” your car from all these other RUclipsrs. This is just a whole different level of washing and detailing. Incredible work 😳🤯
Having such spotless paint is both a blessing and a curse. This car is now officially too nice to drive :D
Bravo, Gyeon, that was a detailing master class!
This is the result of a true restoration and an example of how newer cars deserve restoring as well
I think you are the only person who I would trust 100% to work on my car. I also have an e65 and started posting videos about it :)
This video is insane, all this time I was doing car detailing wrong by following amateurs like Larry from AMMO or Matt from obsessed garage, the Gyeon rep is a true professional, rare to see on Youtune
As an enthusiast and hobby detailer; Bravo! This is "A"-level work. This car is immaculate. Congrats Sreten, and don't forget to enjoy it! :)
There are no words! How do you describe that? Yves is an artist of the highest order. I am staggered with how incredible Chicago looks. Where is the missing % for that not to be 100%. I thought Ammo NYC was the best detailer (that I've seen), but the Gyeon team have taken top spot. Mind blown!
Yves is to detailing what Streten is to wrenching, epic workmanship by two masters.
Wise words to let the products (and the tools) do the job instead of you doing the job. Simple but effective. Impressive result, great job!
Nothing short of a display of mastery.
The biggest compliment I can give here is that it makes me believe I can do it. It’s made to look that easily. Of course, I’ll have a go and it’ll look like I’ve polished it with a garden rake but the belief is there
9 minutes in and this man changed the entire way Im washing my car from here on out
I came here to be entertained while I eat my lunch, but got a master class on detailing instead
4:00 I took out a notepad. It's not the how, it's the tips based in experience like only do 2 wheels at once. His work with the rotary is beautiful!
I'm in awe at the end result, really. I don't know how financially feasible it will be with all the other project cars that you have, but the combination of these two professional companies for paint and detailing sure looks like a winning combination. I know I'm getting ahead of myself, but I'd love to see what they can do with Project Marseille, for example.
They need to start a RUclips channel if they don't have one. Hire a camera guy, do some voice overs and distill it down into this format.
@@afrosheenix gyeon have many videos
@@alrightletsgo470 I think they're referring to Yves and the paint guys not Gyeon.
You must be really proud of your work and hard efforts on this one Sreten! Well done!
Nikad nisam mislio da auto može ovako izgledati. Na zadnjem shot-u su me trnci prošli. Sretene, jebem li te nenormalnog hvala ti što postojiš. Ovo što si ostvario, ovo vozilo. Ne da skidam kapu, skidam gaće! Please continue doing you, making this kind of content for all of us to enjoy and thrive to be at least 10 percent of this. You're awseome!
I thought Larry from Ammo NYC knew a lot about washing cars. Nonetheless, this humble guy Yves, blows everybody out of the water. Thanks a lot Sreten for introducing all theses knowledgeable people to your channel❤
No one does cars better than you Sreten. You wont stop until perfection. Love the videos
I know the E65/E66 gets maligned for not looking as good as its E38 predecessor but when a detailer can make even an E65/E66 look this good, you know he really knows his craft. Kudos to both of you.
I'm not sure I have ever been so invested for an hour straight. There are no words that can describe the utter peak of detailing better than this.
seems, you didn't have much sex though 😜
What a treat to watch these professionals at work. Sad to say its becoming quite rare to have passionate people working on cars.
I'm strugging to find them...
Sreten, after everything that you've been through with this car, you can not even consider getting rid of it. With the engine rebuild, and the second rebuild, the effort you have put into this project is beyond your wildest dreams. I'm sure. This car is part of your DNA now. Please don't let it go. Fantastic result and by far the best project you have completed on your channel. Well done mate.
It doesn't even matter if you're a "car guy" or not. Watching these guys do their work so meticulously and with such deep understanding of the process and techniques must be a pleasure for anyone. It's obvious it's not about money or growing a business for them. This is the type of person I strive to be. Sreten, thank you for capturing this experience.
Wow even after all the mechanical struggles those detail results made me want an Alpina B7! Crazy transformation
German quality + Swiss precision + Slavic out of the box thinking = M539 restorations.
Chapeau bas Monsieur Sreten!
The detailer knows he's stuff, will definitely use his tips
When a pro meets a pro. Mutual respect there. WOW. And so generous too. You can't sell that now, Sreten. What a journey.
As someone who watched hundreds of detailling videos, this by far one of the best one if not the best. The sheer amont of work, knowledge and expertise of these guys is INSANE, amazing video !
So cool to see, and awesome to see Stef here, who polished and Gyeonized my E93 M3 a couple of years ago. Awesome skills these guys have and you’ll enjoy it for years!
I started, didn't look at the clock, didn't realize that this vod is 1h, was totally amazed at the end. Shocked that it was over so quickly. WHAT A NICE JOB. Awesome. Did i say, amazing ? OMG!
I'm an amateur detailer and I love finding new ways to detail a car. Sometimes it's easy to think _"there's one way to do it,"_ but there are different techniques and this is a great learning video!
It's immensely satisfying to witness when one Legend Level Nerd meets another Legend Level Nerd nerding out in their nerderies. What a great vid man. Project Chicago has never once looked as good as she does now. Bravo.
Wow! Yves really transformed how the Alpina looks! Can't imagine how costly a professional detail like that costs! Sensational work from the Gyeon crew!
His take on rotary vs. dual-action from a professional (i e business) standpoint was really nice to hear, also the amount of time it takes to master it.
This was absolutely staggering. Love watching the channel grow, I'll make sure Geyon gets my money when I get around to ceramic coating my fleet.
Just WOW, I’m completely out of words with the paint correction job!!!!. Congrats to Gyeon for the high quality of results, people who put this passion and effort in his craft deserves praise and admiration, wish you the very best.
Sreten, my man, your effort pays off again, and the fact you are fortunate enough to have a community that supports you, and companies like Gyeon around you that make this kind of work, is amazing, you are truly privileged to be able to achieve results like this in your projects, and we are too, because we are able to witness it. Thanks for the most OP car restoration channel in RUclips hands down. Keep it up!!!
the detailer seems to be on another level from those popular YT ones, maybe it's the way he understands the origin of defects and reads the paint like a open book !
Another quality (tutoring) post to satisfy all us us who share Automotive OCD with Sreten.....😎
Well done @gyeon_official ... Good enough for @whitedetails , good enough for mortals. Yves, Stef and Sreten - 3 car brothers, passionate about what they do. If you're going to do something, do it right !
Wow Yves is really a master of his craft :o Not many professional craftsmen like him anymore. Kudos to to the Gyeon team!
Gotta say I am happy for you! Kept smiling at the end for what was possible for you in this project. Great experience and must make you feel proud. I feel somewhat bad for Polish guys who wanted to make good with the extra step but it turned out just the opposite.
They jacked up a wonderful paint job. At least they are experts at paint, the glitter was well distributed, no hot spots.
Thank you so much Sreten for documenting this master class, the results are out of this world! Fantastic job from the guys at Gyeon and what a joy it has been to watch! 💯
Best detailer I've ever seen. No snake oil and pageantry just results.
A true professional. You can tell he's in love with his art.
Goddamn, what an incredible transformation. You knocked it out of the park with this one, Sreten. Artur and Dawid did an amazing job on the pain and Yves did an incredible job bringing it back to better-than-showroom quality. Truly amazing watching Sreten absorbing all that knowledgre from Yves, he’s like a sponge. 🥰🥰
A straight masterclass from the best in the industry. Proud to be a gyeon installer 👍👍👍
Still after watching all your videos, this one a year after the fact, must and does rate as one of the best results ever witnessed.....Yves Heylen is a magician!! Well done to all that participated in this 'master piece'
Damn, Gyeon really showed his level of expertise in this video. Absolutely fantastic job!
15 minutes into the video and already so many tips I had no idea of! Detailing stuff on M539 is the cherry on the cake 🍒
I have many favorite episodes by now. But this just took no. 1 spot. My God what a difference and what a beauty this car has turned out to be. Hat off to both Gyeon and you Sreten for a fantastic job all around. By far my favorite series of your channel so far. The good and the bad all came together to create a fantastic series.
I can hear the struggle when Sreten tries to say "microfiber towel" %)
The car entered scratched, swirl marked and dirty, the car left better than new from factory, what an icredible level of detail and love for th craft from Gyeon, mad respect!!!!
No words...bro I wouldn't have the heart to drive it even hate the sun to come out... utterly speechless about the detailing and the main credit goes to u for not giving up coz at one point i thought u will let it go..hold it up...we are there to support you👍🏼
A true master of his craft. This was very cathartic. What a beauty the Alpina has become.
The styling of this 7 series and the E38 are so much better then what there bringing out currently ❤
i love cars but this guys gave 1hour for cleaning a car.... i will never be this ocd and thank god im already considered crazy for always looking after my expensive and full extra 5 series. that is my pride and joy
Wow, what a transformation! Amazing job by Yves and Gyeon to put the final finishing touches on the beautiful paintjob by Artur and David!
12 minutes in and I already see I'm doing a lot wrong with my own washing!
So glad more people get to see how good Gyeon is and the master in Yves!!!!! I am watching this video for the 3rd time already and will reference back to this video many times in the future
I cant believe how fast this 1h went! This was a pleasure to watch. Car made like this is ready for show rooms without a doubt. Amazing job to you and to whole GYEON team
Honestly really amazed.
Its amazing to me that he can take such a long time to clean the car without getting water spots or anything. I really need to setup up my car washing game. Very insightful video! Thanks Again Streten!
Massive respect for everyone in this video. Also Yves with his explanation feels very natural and honest. I love your video's Sreten, i hope you keep having fun making the video's! Whenever i can do you a favor in the Netherlands, please let me know!
Awesome vlog! This is the best detailing I've witnessed 'bar none'. Your joy at the final was genuine happiness and full of emotion. Beautiful workmanship by ALL concerned...awesome Alpina. BIG Respect.!.
This episode made the sorrow, tears and blood of that engine rebuild all the worthwhile. Top marks to all the pros involved. Team work makes the dream work!
Finally hour long videos are back for good😁 Truely amazing work here, unbelievable results.
I just want to watch you drive and enjoy this car a lot now.
What an incredible work. As close to perfection as possible. Congratulations to everyone @Gyeon involved in the detailing. Its incredible.
