  • Just wanted to have a little fun in this one! I do not recommend you polish your paint with a metal polish, I was just curious as to what would happen.

    Not at all what I was expecting to happen 😂😂😂 I really thought it would make the paint worse since the abrasives are more aggressive. Would love to see more experiments like this in the future!

    When I get a car that has fingernail scratches under the door handles, I use Mothers metal polish on a foam pad, working it in by hand. So far it has worked every time, including on my car that I got last year.

    😀 Thats awesome!! In the mid 90s I had a 1984 Ford Tempo... It had really faded red paint.. (single stage) I was to cheap to buy the proper stuff..but.. I had a can of Mother's Aluminum polish and an old tshirt😎😬.. and the ambition to make her shine... it took forever.. but it worked...😁

    That’s awesome. I saw a video where they tried hand lotion and it worked. I think apex showed that it comes down a lot to the pad or microfiber used. But this combo worked well taking the swirls out. Fun stuff. Thanks for the vid and keep staying at home. Both my kids have asthma too so we all have to be careful

    It removed the defects, but left a horrible haze. A metal polish is pretty much a super aggressive compound, it’s almost like using a hybrid compound/sandpaper mix if that makes sense? I’ve used metal polish on headlights with an aggressive wool cutting pad on the rotary polisher and that damn combo levels out the headlight pretty good without sanding, you just need to follow up with a polish and polishing pad to restore more clarity and gloss. A metal polish is also good at removing oxidation, which is why it works well on headlights also, it can be used, but it will always need to be followed up with a second step.

    • @FABAutomotiveDetailing
      @FABAutomotiveDetailing  2 года назад +1

      Yeah it worked I just thought it would be fun to try. Using on headlights is a good idea.

    How do you polish painted metal when you want the paint to be removed and the metal underneath to be polished? Don’t want to sand as the metal is thin and can’t use paint stripper. Would this work to remove the paint while polishing the metal?

    I think Brian from Apex Auto Detail did something showing that the pad you use makes a big difference. Used his Uro-Fiber 50/50 pad and hand lotion.

    I heard that back in the day before all these polishes came around that the custom painters used chrome polish to shine up their work by hand. Don't know if it's true or not but I could see it.

    I drive a rental car provided specifically for like Uber in my country. The cars are provided by the company and when they call you and say hey you can return the car and get newer one.they may charge all the wear and tear cosmetically. they do not charge you for any mechanical things though if you report it and its maintained by them. it may cost a bomb as the inspection will be like as like a new car. Dosent make sense right i know. So for all these minor scratches and since i do have autosol metal polish at hand.you know what all the sratches from passengers carrying bags,etc around the rear doors,door sils or boot area. this may do the trick and keep my cost down

      That’s why the 8mm throw polishers are still so popular, yeah they take longer than the 15mm and 21mm throw machines, but for a one time job with the correct pad and compound combo, it will get it done.
