- A friend had his new Tesla 3 delivered over the w/end & he asked if I could give it a coat of protection. So unstepped Garage Therapy 👍.

Top result - GT stuff is very good. The quick detailer is so versatile and much under estimated...
Chris I couldn't agree more, my favourite brand & Roger & Maz the owners are such nice people👍
Once the sun popped out you could really see the shine/reflection, very impressive. I will have to put some of those Garage Therapy products on my shopping list. Thanks for taking the time to create an instructional video, it really helps show others how to apply/use these products
Hi John, thanks for the feedback. I have had this combo on my wife's Audi all year and am so impressed with it. I have found road grim finds it difficult to stick to the car and the water behaviour just keeps on giving👍
Really enjoyed the video. I tried GT Zero and CS this month, my first time trying any of their products and they were both absolutely brilliant.
thank you, all the GT products I have used are top draw👍
Hi Martin,top work,GT products cleaned the Tesla well, paintwork is so clear in the video,it must take you a while to clean the car.
@@stevenjones19-m8i All the coffee & cake slowed me down🤣. It took about 6 hours but I did give the car two coats of both GT3 & Sigma and you have to give it time between coats
Thank you :)
Top work as always Martin. Garage Therapy can do no wrong at the moment 👍🏻
Thanks, good days work. GT have a few more products in progress so will defiantly be trying them out as well
Great products there from garage therapy Martin, they just need to start sending over discount codes now (nudge nudge wink wink)🚙🚙
Im sure they will read this comment and respond👍
If I may, you could use my channel’s discount code at County Detailing Supplies, GMD10 👍
Hi,
We have GT packs that have prebuilt in discounts on our products. :)
Thanks,
GT
A great job there Martin helped with the wife’s banana cake looks fairly strait forward to apply or maybe it’s your skill!👏👏👍🚗
A well fed man always works better🍰👍.
Thanks for the enjoyable video. The car looks excellent. It's so satisfying when it turns out that good. My mouth was watering when you were savouring that banana cake.One of my favourites. I too would be interested in one of your caps. Hope that you are having a good rest after that hard work 👍
Hello Gerald, always good to hear from you. glad you enjoyed the video sorry you could taste the cake but as you saw I hovered it down🤣. Will give the caps a little thought👍
Great channel you have here mate, appreciate your videos. You know your doing well when I’m choosing to watch your videos over top gear 😂👍 keep up the good work there’s lots of us relying on you for content 👍
Very kind words James, thank you👍
Awesome!!, been looking forward to seeing this all day!!
What a job Garage Tberapy (and you Martin 😜) has done on the car , when you walked back around it it was so shiny it looked like you had a sparkle filter on the camera!!, absolutely incredible!!, nice to see you fit and well mate. 👌
Cheers Graeme, hard work going over it twice with both products but really enjoyed it with stunning results. Im good thanks, fighting fit👍(for an old git)
Obsessive Car Detailer glad to hear it mate. I hope I wasn’t out of line posting that discount code mate, Ifs all for sharing after all 😃
@@GMDetails no problem we are all here to help each other 👍
Obsessive Car Detailer knew you wouldn’t mind, enjoyed my cup of tea watching you work hard 😆
@@GMDetails ahh but did you have any homemade cake????
Another quality video Martin, I havent' been able to try GT 3 yet but if its dry this weekend then my folks car will be getting the treatment.hopefully with sigma on top it will last the winter
Phil Bloomer thanks Phil. Let me know how you get on
It went well, so much gloss, 2 sigma will be going on tomorrow
@@philbloomer1 great, knew you would like it👍
Top job there Martin, your mate should be very pleased with the way it's turned out. When you first showed the car, it seemed like it was a drab sort of blue, but by the time you finished with it, wow, what a transformation, it's like it was machine polished, well done, top banana.................cake!!!
It was a top cake as well, apologies for the way I stuffed it in🤣. Although it was a clean car to start with, I just love it when you can make a difference and transform a car and that's exactly what GT products do. Thanks for your support👍
fantastic results, im going to go for the same combo for my winter protection.
Good choice, I have had it on the Audi all year and am absolutely delighted with the results. So easy to keep the car clean. I just use GT2 QD on every wash and Sigma on every 3rd or 4th. It won't let you down
Results are amazing, would love to see someone do some gloss meter readings and torture tests on 3CS and Sigma combo because it looks absolutely amazing wherever I’ve seen it 🤩
Thanks Nick, it comes across well on camera but believe me its better in real life and even better this morning.😎
They both preform well on both counts I can assure you. :)
Hi when I use the CS on cars I didn’t realise you could apply sigma straight away I’ve always left it until the following weekend
I checked with GT first because I was only going to have one go at it and wanted to get the best level of protection. The feedback from GT suggested at least 30min before applying Sigma👍
I also find sigma goes on nicer with applicator pad aswell keep up the good work
agreed, run out of applicators but you are spot on👍
Yes we agree also. Generally with CS and Sigma its all about getting an even coat - like you would with a wax on a panel.
Such thorough work by yourself. Stunning mirror like reflection.
cheers, the reflection was a little scary, some old git looking back at me🤣
I can’t wait to try GT Sigma. All the uk reviewers seem to be smitten with it. My first purchase was the car shampoo , I was properly blown away with it. Great work sir, just subscribed and very much enjoying your content. Keep up the great work sir
Hello Alan and welcome to my channel. Have a look through my videos and just drop me a comment on any questions and I will always get back to you. This isn’t a review channel as such where I chase subscriber numbers or seek detailing freebies. It’s just me in my little workshop and what I get up to. If I don’t like a product I say it as I find it. I glad to have you in my little community where we can all learn from each other, no such thing as an expert. Stay safe and hope to hear from you soon👍👍
3 CS is on my wish list for my birthday buys this month . I need to whittle down my Autobrite wish list for their sale as its come in at £116 !!!! Once Ive done that its 3 CS and Zero as Id like to try both of these as the reviews are fantastic
How much is a liver worth ? Just so I get all I need and your wife is spoiling you , good to see you back
Im worth spoiling 🤣. Always good to have a wish list especially if someone else is paying. Good to be back, I missed you guys👍 Still waiting to clean my poor old car, looks like rain the next couple of days
@@ObsessiveCarDetailer did mine yesterday , bit stupid as Im on a spending on the sale BUT the youngest lad has said he wants the 208 cleaning before its MOT and as its getting ready for winter I guess I can suffer driving his hot hatch for a few days .
AS YET I'm away the last week of Oct so its going to get a hammering going to Cornwall plus I have the HUGE task of tackling the eldest sons Honda towhich is going with us so will use some of the harder more strong products on the Jazz which is by far the most scabby , dirty car in the family
Twistedmind Photography sounds like you’re going to have your work cut out
If you had a few less tea and cake breaks, you’d have got that done in under an hour!😄
you may well have a point Chris, I wouldn't need to keep letting my belt out either 🤣
I cannot wait to get home from sea and use all the GT products that I have used only once before on my car. Was blown away by the finish. Anyway it’s been 3 months since it was last washed and I do t let the wife wash it.
how can you let your Wife loose on the car???????????🤣 Please don't let her see my comment🤣
@@ObsessiveCarDetailer mmmm he seems to be logged into RUclips on my iPad here at home 😂 🤪 I drive it but don’t wash it 🤣
@@waysidecarvaleting oooops🤷🏻♂️
The daily Audi is a similar blue and this is the range I’ll be using on it throughout 2021. Genuinely excited to see how it turns out
It’s the combo I used on the Wife’s A3 all last year and it’s a winner👍
What a lovely ride. Wish to have one at some point. But I'm doing the wrong job to be able to get one :P
Certainly a smooth ride and a totally different concept. When I bought my X3 I thought my next car would be electric. Will have to see👍
Superb as always !!! Bought some ' swissvax ' £50,00 for small tub of their wax , for the Porsche, will let you know if it is worth the price !! But wanted to mention I did some internal detailing tests and found that your recommendation of Autoglym ' vinyl and rubber care ' came out the winner !! Cheers...
Hi John, heard good things about it but not tried it, be good to get your view after a month or so. Good news on the Autoglym, glad it worked out for you. Its a good brand👍
Nice to see a tube notification from you mate. Just the video I was looking for. Bought the same 3 GT products and going to be giving it a go asap. How long did you leave it between the 3 CS coats? Keep safe. 👍
Hello Andy, After the 1st GT3 coat, I did the wheels and had a brew so just over an hour.
@@ObsessiveCarDetailer then that is what I will do as well oh wise one🙏. 😀
@@andyupton5851 🤣🤣, Andy I have been called many things in my life, "wise one" is not one of them🤣🤣
Hi Martin, can I be cheeky and ask have you found any products since you filmed this video that you would say is better than GT CS 3?
Great video and very useful for me! Thank you! 😊👍
It’s not cheeky at all Dave. Since doing this video I have used a lot of the Soft99 range and have found them all easy to apply and very effective. Have a look through my videos and you will see a number of excellent waxes that last as well as sealants and QDs. They could well be my favourite brand, real quality. Nothing wrong with GTCS3 but Soft99 now have in my opinion a few better products. Hope that helps
Thanks Martin, yes I have most of the S99 range, GT and BH, like you it’s good to keep trying these products and changing it up is good todo.
My only smile is when everyone talks about how the longevity is 3 months, 5 months etc, but clean my car so regular I never see or appreciate longevity lol.
I think we just enjoy the complete detailing process of our cars looking super clean.
I’ve followed you for several years now and always enjoy your content and efforts! Thank you. You are top of the class for me 😊👍👍
The mutts nuts Martin. Big old car to detail aswell. That deserved a cold one.
I can tell you James, I felt my age after & did indeed treat myself to a Doom Bar🍺
@@ObsessiveCarDetailer 🍺quick question Martin. What do u suggest to do to remove fine scratches from windscreen? Do I have to get glass specific polish? Cheers mate
@@jamesbartlett5005 James, I have never tried to mate sorry🤷♂️. I have seen a few videos on polishing headlights but again not something I have done
@@ObsessiveCarDetailer OK cheers bud
@@jamesbartlett5005 something like Carpro Ceriglass with a rayon pad if you're machine polishing. Other an applicator with plenty of elbow grease!
I like your caps Martin, where can I buy one from? and on a side note, Garage therapy are excellent products.
Hi Robert, am thinking of offering them. Will look in to it a bit more. As for GT, they don't do ordinary, just top quality in my opinion
Another great video Martin. Slight beginner question for you, could you put 3cs and/or sigma on top of a ceramic coating and use the two of them as sacrificial layers?? Looking at getting our new car coated with C Quartz UK 3.0. But after seeing what you did to that Tesla, it's making me think???????
Hi Paul, yes no problem. I think 3cs was actually designed to go on a ceramic coating. If it was me & I had a ceramic coating on the car then I would probably just use Sigma after every 2nd/3rd wash & GT 2QD at the other times. Hope that is of some help
Cracking vid again gotta get some gt products ASAP👌love the hat and hoodie do you sell them ??
I am currently discussing merchandise with a local company to see if I can provide hats, mugs, tee shirts & hoodies at a reasonable price. Keep an eye on the channel for an update
Hi what make and model of leaf blower are you using and how much are they .I just seen your and very impressed with it .
Great video pal. before applying 3cs would you advise to use meguiars compound and meguiars polish or would the compound be sufficient enough
Hello Jazza, it would depend on what you are try to achieve. Are you looking to remove light swirls or scratches ? But their ultimate compound is a nice product. If you are unsure then start with a fine product and see how it goes. Not much help I’m afraid but I would need to see the car, understand what you are looking to do before suggesting the product & tools
@@ObsessiveCarDetailer Thanks for the response pal. looking for protection and gloss. which machine polisher would you recommend kind regards
@@jazzam8012 Hi, if you are new to machine polishing then dont go made and spend £300+ on a polisher. I dont have the need to use one that often so I bought one from Autobrite Direct but have a look around and suggest you get a dual action one. I have added a link to one that may be of interest but you can get them cheaper www.autobritedirect.co.uk/product/the-da-21mm-dual-action-polishing-machine-version-2/
Can I ask Martin, do you always use a fallout remover BEFORE you snow foam or was it because the car was near enough new? I usually do it after I snow foam but the more I think about it the more it makes sense to do it before when the car is dry so it clings that bit better.
I think you used BH Korrosol in this case because they don't make a product called Iron Out as far as I'm aware, I think that may be Auto Finesse?
Another great video thank you!
Hi Steve, you make a couple of valid points. First you are absolutely right in that I used BH Korrosol. Iron out is a very apt name and I have tended to call all fallout products iron out. Clearly misleading so I will try to get the name right in future. Thanks for pointing it out, I missed it in editing and suspect I would continue to make the same mistake if not called out 👍. The application of a fallout remover before a wash does create a debate. I usually use it after washing but the more I think about it, I can't see any negatives in using it before, depending on how dirty the car is. In fact the reason I used it before in this case was that as it was a new car & quite clean, I wanted to really make sure it was all off so wanted to use the wash to ensure it was all safely removed. As you know, I never use my channel to say "how it should be" but "this is what I do". A day in the life if you like. If you prefer to use it after washing & it works for you then cool.
@@ObsessiveCarDetailer I think I am going to go with using Korrosol before snow foaming from now on Martin, for the exact reason you said - my car is never that dirty and I think it may well be able to do it's fallout removing job better on a fairly clean but dry car with the snow foam layered over the top. Jet off, shampoo and any fallout bites the dust I reckon! Keep up the great work it is much appreciated by many my friend! 👍
@@steverabbits sounds good to me but not to everyones taste. I have had many comments & messages about this but firmly believe its about what works for you and not what others think is the correct way. 👍
@@ObsessiveCarDetailer quite right 👍 My only issue with doing it the way I always have an applying it after snowfoaming is that unless you let the car dry it tends to run off too quickly but other than that do what suits you best I say. Many ways to skin a cat as they say and if you like your end result then that's all that matters really! 😎😎
SteveRabbits totally agree with you Steve
Great stuff bro.. Do u like gt products? X
Hey Mr L, good to hear from you. Im still on the fence 🤣
@@ObsessiveCarDetailer 😁 let me know when u make a decision on them 👍🏻
Take care bro
Martin love the lance on your trigger gun where is it from mate.
Gleem Detailing, check out their site
I am a fan of banana cake
You have to be quick to get any in my house🤣
Hi,Martin did you do two coats because it was a new car would you do one coat normally
Hello mate, partly as the car didn't have any protection on at all and partly because I wanted to give it as much chance to successfully protect the car as the owner isn't known for keeping his cars protected. Funnily enough he was so pleased with the result that he actually asked me about detailing and did a fair job of looking after it🤷♂
@@ObsessiveCarDetailer so he should Martin or he's got to much money
Would you not do the sigma first to get the nice gloss then use the stage 3 ceramic sealer to protect that? Just makes sense to me but I haven't used them yet.. I'm going try the full range they look good products and get really good reviews
Hi Matt, 3Cs is made to be your base coat protection & then apply sigma as your sacrificial layer every couple of weeks. I did that last year on the Audi & it gave great protection all year. Give it a try & let me know your thoughts
@@ObsessiveCarDetailer thanks for the reply, I have now ordered most of the gt products so I'll see how I go.
@@treebutcher2000 you won’t be disappointed Matt but let me know your thoughts once you have tried them 👍
Great video, what make is that turquoise coloured brush you used on the wheels plz, Cheers
kurtinbloom hi, good to hear from you. It’s a chenille duster made by Morgan. I bought it from Homebase for £1:75. It’s great, gets behind most brake callipers. The one in the video is about a year old. Easy to clean as the mop comes off the handle so you could put it in the washing machine if you wanted. I just wash it in the left over car shampoo bucket at the end of my detail. Hope that helps
@@ObsessiveCarDetailer Yes that's brilliant, thanks for replying Martin, much appreciated
kurtinbloom no problem happy to help. Look through my videos and any questions then just drop me a comment and I will get back to you👍
nice vid, haven't tried GT products yet but I think they're going towards the top of the list.
What is the make of the dryer you used?
Hello Tony, thank you. When you look at the whole GT range there isn't an average product in the line. As a product range they are my favourite brand. Maz & Roger who own the company are also nice guys and always helpful. The blower is a Dewalt, check out the video I have on it. Any questions then drop me a comment and I will always get back to you👍
@@ObsessiveCarDetailer Martin, many thanks for the prompt reply.
I've got their car and wheel shampoo on my next shopping list, as I have a bit of other products to finish.
To be honest I was thinking of the Turtle Wax Pro line when it comes out here in the UK. But the more I see of GT products the more I'm getting to want to try them. Plus if truth be known, I think (and i mean this in a nice way) I'd rather try and help an up and coming company albeit on a really small scale. I doubt TW will miss my few groats anyway.
I'll have a butchers at your dryer vid. Cheers
@@tonyjoe5707 you won’t be disappointed in the GT products and like you I like to look at the smaller companies. They just seem to give a more personal service and these guys have been detailing for years so they know what they want. Please let me know how you get on with the products whatever you decide to buy. Happy Christmas 👍
Great video Martin. Do you use the blower all over the car or just in the cracks? Is the blower any good? Thanks.
Ian, I did reply to you but it seems to have disappeared from my page. Please get back to me if you didn't see it
@@ObsessiveCarDetailer Hi Martin, sorry nothing appeared.
@@Ian-ky6hm ok, don't know what I did🤷♂️. ok so I only used the blower on the parts where water was dwelling. I didn't use it on this car's paintwork as I had removed all the protection and the water would not easily blow off. If however you have a car with good levels of protection then I use the blower all over as the water will fly off. As for the blower, it's the right solution for me and cost effective. Check out my previous video on the blower and any questions, drop me a comment and I will try my best to answer them👍
@@ObsessiveCarDetailer fantastic 👍🏻
Is that the right order Martin c s 3 first then sigma 2 last strange way thought they ran numerically ?
Hi Michael, they do run numerically as in Zero to decon, One to clean, Two as QD & Three to provide a coating. 👍
Is this way better than using garage therapy wax?
Hi, different types of product. Both state a longevity of around 6 months depending on a number of factor’s. Similar results, both quality products I guess it depends on do you prefer to seal or wax your car. Your choice my friend
Thank you. Love your videos you just make things simple 👍🏻
@@littlejack841 thank you 👍👍
Do you not do any polishing
Hi Gary, yes I do but only when its necessary. Im not of the opinion that your car should be polished on a regular basis as there is only so much clear coat on the paint. I have seen a video on youtube where it it suggested that a car should be polished yearly. I don't believe that should be the case for most cars unless it's a show car. Most cars are daily users and minor issues are unavoidable. If you polished a car every time you noticed a swirl or minor scratch then it should be left at home in the garage. I have a couple of polishers but would consider myself a novice. Hope that is of help
@@ObsessiveCarDetailer thanks, I love your videos I just wondered if you done any machine polishing that’s all.. I love your pressure washer setup I’m looking to get the hose and Lance from gleem after watching your video on it
@@gary7323 I hope the videos are of help. If there are any questions on anything in them then please just drop me a comment and I will always get back to you. Let me know your thoughts when you get your new equipment from Gleem, You will find Keith the owner very helpful. I hope 2021 is good to you. Stay safe👍.
@@ObsessiveCarDetailer thanks and happy new year to you :)
Iron out before you wash it is a bit odd bud 🤷🏻♂️
Hi Dave, on this occasion because I wanted to ensure all previous protection was removed I decided to use iron out first and kept the snow foam alive on the car for longer. But what ever works for you👍
Nothing odd about it at all.
Many pro detailer will lay down an iron fallout remover before adding a layer of snow to the car. Long before a contact wash.
Greatly increases dwell time for the fallout remover and ensures better removal.
Great video Dave but please, please, please invest in a 4k camera.
You aint doing the quality of your work real justice!
@@AntEloftheHouseofEl don't know what's going on tonight, another comment I have replied to that has disappeared . Would love a new camera but my pressure washer is higher on the list as its in intensive care!!. But do agree with you🤷♂️
Expected results from the best products on the market today,in my humble opinion.A fantastic job Martin,have to admire your stamina.👍🏼
Cheers Mr G, defiantly a hard but enjoyable days work as I gave it two coats of both GT3 & Sigma.
