Can you apply a ceramic coating over the ceramic gloss?

[@jbrockskill]

I love all the swirls/scratches towards the bottom

[@diydetailofficial]

A quick polish that will shine up paint won’t always remove a lot of scratches. This method is great for the beginner and great for preserving clear coat 😊

The best part is the time you save not having to wipe the polish off first than use a panel prep and finally apply the protection!

Hey brother, I want to clay before I polish. Can i use the clay towel/mit while the car is wet with a graphene shampoo? Or no because the graphene in the shampoo will seal in the contaminants that I'm trying to pull with the clay mit? I'm trying to soak the car down, and spray iron remover while using the clay mit

[@diydetailofficial]

The graphene is not an issue, make sure the soap doesn’t soften the Perforated Synthetic Decontamination Towel

[@shoaibahmed57]

If you pause the video in the last 2 seconds you can see there are a lot of swirl marks remaining. Just thought I'd point it out

That was residue that wasn’t fully wiped off.

Hi Yvan. Will this not damage my ceramic protection if I do it on the entire car? I just completed chemical and mechanical decontamination but want to see more gloss.

[@diydetailofficial]

If you polish a ceramic coating, you remove the ceramic coating.

[@benbolivar7954]

@diydetailofficial Yvan, I saw in one of your short videos where you used a jewling pad to enhance the gloss of an already ceramic coated paint? What lubricant/polish should I use and at what speed should I set my rotary polisher?

can you fix paint that has peeled up in the front of the car? or would you have to completely sand down the car and repaint it?

Unfortunately it must be repainted.

A 8 or 15 mm dual action

@@diydetailofficial do you have a particular brand in mind??? I’ve been told Griots or Maxshine for an affordable beginners option…?

[@diydetailofficial]

Yes those work.

[@trollfeeder]

@@DetailsNMe did you ever purchase one?

[@daveezrin1896]

Would you skip the ceramic gloss for something else if you were going to be ceramic coating afterwards?

[@diydetailofficial]

Yes, simply use DIY Detail Rinseless Wash to wipe off.

[@daveezrin1896]

​@@diydetailofficialThanks for the reply. I have an s580 benz. About 2 months ago I put on a cheaper spray ceramic Torque was the brand. Do you think the polish spray would be enough to remove that for the diy 5 year coating to then be applied?
I'm new to the polishing game still need to get a polisher or 2. Will test on my old corolla beater before I touched the benz of a potential customer car

[@diydetailofficial]

Yes, polishing will easily remove that.

[@Eliteman-hh3fe]

I’m curious, Why not do the whole door instead of a 2*2 section?

[@diydetailofficial]

Most doors are too large, plus from an ergonomic standpoint you do not want to polish wider than your shoulders.

[@MarkSegree]

What did you spray on the compound? I'm having troubles at work removing the compound 100% because the product they gave me is like oil.

No, but if you prefer, wipe off with rinseless then use DIY Detail Ceramic Gloss to dry.

Impressive! Would be nice to see on a vehicle just off the street...

Coming soon!

[@aidenmckiernan3387]

What’s the difference between these pads and other pads

[@diydetailofficial]

Waffle pads run cooler, last longer.

[@TheManic.5-OH]

What milwaukee product is that? Is the pad youre using the factory size?

[@diydetailofficial]

It’s the 21mm DA, yes with the 6 inch factory backing plate.

[@SpreadingKnowledgeVlogs]

This is intriguing so is the spray polish just lubricant and it's relying on the cutting ability of the pad or is there also any abrasives in the spray? Also does either product fill in micro scratches?

[@diydetailofficial]

Yes it has abrasives, and no filling.

[@dominic24332]

Hi sir , can i do it by hand of only with the machine ??

[@diydetailofficial]

You can by hand , but it takes a lot of work. This isn’t a wax, it’s an abrasive polish ( compound).

[@RD-io6sm]

Very interesting. You don't have to strip the polish off to get a good bond with the ceramic gloss?

[@diydetailofficial]

DIY Detail Gold Standard Polish is a pure abrasive, it has no protection or or fillers

[@RD-io6sm]

@@diydetailofficial I understand that. I always thought you had to strip the polish off to get a good bond with whatever spray sealant you're putting on there.

[@al_automotive]

Would you say this is the best beginner friendly polishing process

[@diydetailofficial]

Yes, absolutely

[@ramonbriones4487]

This removes swirls, scratches, and water marks?! We don't need to use a compound first?

[@diydetailofficial]

Our yellow foam pad with Gold Standard Polish isn’t as aggressive as our wool pad, but it can take out a surprising amount of swirls and scratches and finishes down awesome on most paint 👍

[@davidruggles996]

Way slick move to wipe off with your LSP. That's got to beat using an AIO where the protection has to put up with heat and abrasion.

[@diydetailofficial]

Thank you

[@user-lj5wv2tt9d]

If we have the same tool you have, do you recommend a 5.5 or 6.5 pad? What are the pros and cons?

[@diydetailofficial]

Use the pad that matches your backing plate

[@jojocrawdaddy7487]

Can you tell me what some foam pads are flat and some (like yours) are sort of like a golf ball? One better than the other or a performance thing?

[@diydetailofficial]

Flat pads are the least expensive to manufacture, hence why they are popular. A waffle pad has many advantages, principally better user experience ( less grabby), keeps the surface cooler, and they are more efficient.

[@jockaud]

Do you really need the Gold Standard pad because it wasn't rotating?

[@diydetailofficial]

It was rotating, the polishing footage was accelerated to fit the short format

[@jockaud]

@@diydetailofficial Thank you for the clarification!

[@flytyingguy1]

Can you use the ceramic gloss over a graphene coating for more gloss?

[@diydetailofficial]

Yes

[@detailzautodetailing643]

Just tried this polish today, and it is awsome ! I will say rupes yellow polish cuts more as a one step, but the gold standard is one to have in your arsenal. No dusting and definitely enhances gloss, and you don't have to worry about hitting trim

[@diydetailofficial]

Exactly! Thanks for the feedback brother

[@lanthonyperdum6430]

Can you speak on the condition of the paint you were polishing ???

[@detailzautodetailing643]

@lanthonyperdum6430 it was on black hazy paint. Brought back all the clarity but like I mentioned the rupes yellow did a little better attacking swirls which where heavy . I'd use diy polish for jeweling / Enhancing gloss which is majority of the jobs I do when polishing.
