- Deep scratches look hideous and depressing! This video shows how to repair those scratches while preserving the clear coat in and near the surrounding area. Sure...you could make repeated passes over the effected area, spiking temperatures and stressing the clear coat. Or let me show you how to repair the scratch with minimal stress to the clear coat.

Wet Sanding to repair major imperfections and scratches is the least stressful method for your clear coat. What are you waiting for? Grab some junk panels and practice! :)
Apex Detail do you have a “one size fits all” polisher for a weekend warrior and occasional detailer? I have a torqx and it’s not quite powerful enough. I was thinking a 15mm throw for a more general use but would a 21 be better and to also use the torqx sometimes?
Greenie_The _Detailer I use Meg’s microfiber pads and will probably have to try some of those eurofiber pads
Greenie_The _Detailer I can normally 1 step with d300 and the microfiber cutting pad. Even on a 2002 Kia that’s never been polished before had wonderful results. Followed up by turtle wax hybrid solutions coating. Good stuff
Did you guys try lake country pads they have bunch of different pads I tried lamb wool cutting pad with sonax cut Max they work really good.. Im wondering if anyone else had chance to try them out... Btw mister Brian I have to thank you I'm watching your yt channel for a year in that year I learned soo much from you... I got soo much knowledge how to polish how to protect your car and every product review that u posted on this channel helps me to choose which product is perfect for car that I'm working on in that moment... I even get a promotion in my company from experience that I got from watching your yt channel...thank you soo much... You're the best..

I watched this video three years ago thinking I'm too scared to mess up still but thanks to your video I felt more comfortable trying it out. Being from Trinidad, there aren't many places that offer detailing as a course. Your step by step videos are a blessing. 👏🏾
Thanks for this I was terrified of wet sanding can't believe how easy you made it look! Great video!
Brother, I just want to say THANK YOU 🙏, every startup detailer needs to see and learn lesson from this. Setting up expectations too high for customer will not bring more business in longer run but being honest and upfront will. Customer needs to be educated what scratches cannot be permanently removed to set their expectations level at the right level. Thank you 🙏 again for another great and honest video.
Best detailing channel on RUclips, I always enjoy and take something away from your videos. Thanks for all your efforts Brian 👍
I have spent months researching into spray painting and discovered a great website at Magic Painter Method (check it out on google)

You are the master detailer. I continue to learn from you and enjoy your videos and the work you do.
Just ordered the RID stix from K.X.K. and I'm ready to practice on a door panel. Then on to the cars :) Thanks for the all the effort you put into this channel Brian.
This is excellent. I used this technique on my wife’s car, which had multiple scratches on several body panels. Worked like a charm. Massive improvement!
Really helpful and informative, too. Really appreciate the detail of how it's smoothing out the edges - knowing exactly what is happening is great!
Came across your channel a couple days ago... been hooked since. Such great information. Love how thorough you are and that you show it all. Keep up the great work!
WOW! You made it look soo easy! I honestly thought you wers going to have to use touch up paint. Awesome and very informative video! Keep up the great work mang!
U have managed to demystify and create a sustainable process with best methods & materials to take out deep or shallow scratches. As a retired Process Engineer, your visual aids, process details, materials used steps are second to none! I prob hit LIKE like others do, before watching the video and SAVE to my personal Car Detailing Hints list for future ref.
Exactly what I was looking for!!! I'm so stoked about this video. I have similar scratches on my black soft thin clearcoat '07 Acura MDX. Thank you Brian!
Just absolute brilliance man👍🏼👍🏼. The way you provide explanations puts the icing on the cake. Always enjoy watching and learning from you👍🏼...cheers.
Beautiful work! That’s amazing how little you can see it afterwards!
Great vid. I was always scared of attempting anything like that, but now who knows. Thanks as always for taking time out for these vids. Another thumbs up. Cheers
Great tutorial. This is pure craftsmanship. Very informative and easy to follow.
This channel has reached the stage where I click Like, before even watching!
Very impressed also you was honest enough to show the scratch was still there If you had done that job for me I would’ve been mega impressed
Perfect job with this video. No wasted time and to the most important points. Keep up the great content creation!!!
Always good info.. I've been practicing wet sanding. I'm getting better cause of ur videos and help.
There is nobody that explains the process better than Brian!!!
This channel is one of the best but chrisfix actually explains things a little bit better when it comes to some of the scratch removal process.... example was doing a wet test to see how deep the scratch is. If it’s just cut through the clear coat and compound, polish and wax isn’t enough to smoothen the lines in the clear coat, you gotta sand it down using 2 different types of sand paper 3000 and 5000.... the. Polish and wax....
If it’s a deep scratch and it is straight cuts into the primer, your only two choice is touch up paint, wax
Or get the entire panel to be repainted which is expensive..... apex doesn’t really delve into that.... but I still love these folks content
No!!!
Wow, absolutely amazing job you’ve done there. Very well done. 👍🖖
Great video Sr.I also have some scratches on my Black Rogue so now im ready to take care of them.Thank you and greetings from Miami.
Thanks Brian. I have a scratch running along my passenger side about that severe in places. Looks like this is the way to tackle it.
Best video I have seen on youtube. VERY simple to follow and understand!!!
Greetings from the UK. .. thank you for uploading get this. This is really really useful. Great stuff.
Impressive work! I will get a panel. Maybe it is What to do in the wintertime when it is dark, snowy and cold. Use my fathers warm garage and learn some new stuff :)
You are such a good teacher!
This helped me out a lot, thanks man! You’re a legend!
Nice job I did an old truck learned how from you in one of your older videos. I was scared to death the first time but not after watching your video and trying it. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Very impressive Apex! Thanks for the video! Cheers, Doug
A very good refresher on scratch techniques. I like the honest approach, sorry but it does not go away but looks better. The customer can accept or else pay much more to paint shop. Thanks for being a wise teacher.
Your a Professor @ Detailing 👍.......students like me always look forward to your next presentations
Brian, thanks for sharing; love me some trizact… can even use TW compound by hand after some 3K trizact on little areas.... great stuff!
Very nice professional job. You explained it clearly what you were doing. 👍👍👍
Awesome results and video Brian!
superb Brian it makes you confident in doing your own and customers cars
You are a freaking genius. Your results are perfection. I can tell that you have learned your craft after years of trial and error and I admire that. God Bless!
You are amazing. Thank you for your time, and expertise. I am inspired
Finally someone that's realistic about what you can get out, not claiming you can make the scratched area looked better then new!
I agree! The only way you can make it look like new is if you have paint correction work done! People need to understand that us detailers are not magicians we can't make something completely dissappear
Good stuff!! This reminds me I need to pick up more wet dry paper😃
Your work is awesome and your videos are confidence inspiring.
Thank you very much . This was exactly what I was looking for.
GREAT WORK AS ALWAYS BRIAN 👍🤓👍
Some ppl don’t treat a finish as it only has 1 clear coat
Great video man always a pleasure watching your videos
Older video I guess, but very glad I found it! Thank you for this and ALL the great tips you give on this channel that are good for enthusiasts like myself as well as I am sure that professional detailers learn a lot from you. Best wishes, stay safe and Merry Christmas!
I have a 370Z with the Magnetic Black(G-41) finish that has been corrected and ceramic coated with Opti-Coat Pro + and yes, scratches like that are truly hideous on that kind of finish. That info about wet sanding is most helpful for those of us who don't want to go to the body shop, where every paint defect solution is a complete repaint of the entire panel.
Thank you. It looks easy, and scary at the same time.
Brian great content ,always learning something . Really appreciate your attention to detail.
Wondering what did you charge your customer for the scratch removal Thanks
I got a late view of this video, but an absolutely incredible job on this Brian. To make as deep a scratch nearly unnoticeable is an art.
Great work B. Love the flat cap. Super stylish. 💪
Please protect those knees. ❤️
Keeps my bald head warm!🙂
Highly Informative and Extremely Helpful... Thank You!!!
Awesome information! Thank you! That sandpaper on the paint makes my guts turn a bit before I saw the end result though.
Brilliant! Thanks so much for the clear directions 👍
Another awesome video Brian!
Extremely helpful as I’m now confident to fix a few scratches on our cars.
If you get a chance in the weeks ahead, can you show us how you repair stone chips on the front hood?
Thanks again!!
Thank you!! We have a 2019 Ford Edge, we have a key mark on it, multiple scratches on the doors from dogs, people leaning against it.
Great video! The only thing I do different is after sanding, I apply a very thin line of clear coat to the scratch and let it dry for 24 hours. Then I level the clear with a leveling solution before one more light sand with 3000-4000 before I polish out the area. It takes a little more time having to wait 24 hours, but the scratch will actually be filled by clear. On a side note, GM touchup paint has a built in container of clear on the opposite end of the paint tube. You simply apply a thin layer with to soft foam applicator that is included with the touchup paint. I do the same process with paint chips.
This is what I'm going to do. Worth the extra step and time IMO.
Can you please elaborate on what the leveling solution is? And which tool you use to apply clear? Why not just fill first and sand later? Due to light reflection from the rough scratch edges? TY!
@@hraniss google leveling solution for clesr coat..its like paint leveling compound..and you sand first to take out the rough edges and the paint and clear coat can adhere better..
He’s a detailer not an auto body technician or auto body painter.
Amazing content. Thanks for all your help!
Great video, straight to the point. Thank you.
Outstanding work Brian 👍👍👍
Excellent as always ✊Very knowledgeable and informative video ✊💎
I learn something Every time! Thanks!
Excellent video very easy to follow and very well explained well done mate!!
Those kind of scratches Brian can be sleepless nights if that's your new car. I've also viewed prior videos you've done on wet sanding and all are very informative.
Omg THANK YOU !!! Most helpful Channel for me. Damm Dodge and the shit clear coat. Honestly I just looked at the truck ..the other day it scratched 🤣😂
This video is at another level. Thanks!
Thank you Brian, another amazing video 😇
Excellent video, with no mickey mouse BS tricks. I really like the science detail that the scratch will not be removed, just sanded and smooth out
AWESOME !!! Didn't you do a video some time ago showing this? As always GREAT video so informative and showing us it is not that difficult to do. Oh I found it funny that youtube put in a F11 add :) Thank you Brian.
I have some old wet sanding videos...time to revisit them and keep the series going.
Great results , can't believe how much you were able to hide
Very helpful video. This just happened to my truck 2 days ago. Except in my case, it's the entire passenger side of my Nissan truck. Paint transfer and deep scratching. I bought the truck almost new and did heavy correction and touch up repairs already, so I fear the clear is too thin. I'm taking it to be looked at, but I expect to have to repaint it.
Well, if you’re already mentally prepared to accept a full repaint. Then you’ve got nothing to lose by trying to wet sand first. If it works, you saved a bunch of money.
Brilliant stuff. Mine is half as bad so I’m confident it can be sorted.👍
Excellent video and explanations!!!
Excellent job I call that softening up the scratch. That works really good on the door something like that not to go out on the hood or on a faring or a gas tank of a motorcycle. I don’t know if you do it but I’ve already use the soft clearcoat touched up a scratch blocked it and buffed. It works sometimes , what are your thoughts on that have you ever done that? Good job thank you enjoy your videos.
That's cool, makes sense now that you have explained it. I was thinking you would be able to see it easy but it just wouldn't be as aggressive as it was.
At first glance I thought any correction of that scratch was hopeless after you were done and have to lay on the floor and get it it just the right angle with the shop light that's unbelievable the amount of improvement with the wet sanding and a one-step Polishing Compound
Great video for scratches griots does make a 3 inch pad for hand buffing but works great for sanding
This is a great video - thank you! I purchased a used truck recently that had Bushwacker fender flares. These flares are notorious for scratching clear coat because sand and dirt get between the paint and the rubber seal of the flare and road vibrations cause a sandpaper-type effect. Is this something that can be fixed with the process in this video? Happy to PM pics if necessary. Thanks!
I dont think I have the products to do this work but I do appreciate the videos and the content.
Great very simple method and very effective!
Excellent, informative video!
B your work is exemplary!!!
A little and knoll age goes a long way. Great video.😎😎😎😎🔔🔔🔔
Awesome job and great tips
Yeah baby, just what I needed. Now I can take care of my superficial scratches within the clear coat. Do it myself and feel good in the process. 😁 My car's name is Tom btw.
Thank you Brain, this was very helpful :)
Great job, Brian!
Hey great video. Any different procedure for deep scratches on a plastic bumper? Thanks again!!
The Magician strikes again!
Outstanding work!
What do you think about filling the scratch with clear coat first and then following your process? My thought is that it would make the surface even after sanding with the 3K sandpaper.
Thank you Brian I shall try this on my 05 Silver Acura RL👌
Hello Bryan that was awesome!! Can I ask you what speed were you using on the polisher. Thank for making us better detailers
Very good video sir.
I was wondering if it is possible to remove the scratch completely by adding spray clear coat after second sanding? Then resanding it with 3000, compound, then polish?
Question: for a really deep scratch ( I was using a power washer and the metal tip scratch my door ) I know it’s pretty deep because I can see the base coat . Will this method work ? Or do I need to paint it ? Loved your videos by the way. Thank you
Love the video. Came across during a search after scratching my drivers door while washing the my 2020 cx9 suspect w a dirty sponge, smh 🤦♂️. I have that 3 stage paint soul crystal red metallic, which is beautiful but seems to scratch easily. Tried Meguires scratch X2, but it hasn’t fully helped. I suspect I have to this to my car then?? I don’t want to pay a fortune for 3 scratches at a body shop.
Great video bro. I hit the 👍 and subscribed
😳 .... just found my new another side hustle , thank you 🤙
Well that was a useful vid. Thanks Brian!
Hey Brian I have a Chevy Express van and the roof keeps getting oxadation I used compound but it doesn't come out good and it comes back thinking on wet sanding please list all the products you recommend trying,or what you would do thanks
