Car looks great! I use the same DIY system to decontaminate because it’s simple and it works. Their water spot remover is like a magic potion. Loved your explanation of taking PPF off. Never heard it explained like that.
Waterspot remover will always be mine go to for mineral removal from now on, i even use it on my shower glass covered with ultra glaco! It works amazing and i love it. Never did like or use any of the other brands WS, they just destroy any protecion and do nothing basically and cost a bundle.
Nice video, it should be noted the guys using “OP” products have been doing this very same method for years now, in fact DIY takes a lot of inspiration from “OP” the idea of using a waterspot remover that sucks for removing waterspots but is good at cleaning inorganic and organic contamination ( aka minerals ). That idea is some six years old from “OP” some 8-9 years old from labocosmetica who did it before OP. So the idea of decontamination like this has been around for the last decade it’s just been popularized by The guys at DIY, same with DIY’s rinseless which also took cues from OP and their Eco wash which dropped 5 years ago now. Just a little history. Good video tho.
Hey Amir thanks for chiming in my friend, glad to have you on the channel. There's not much new in the detailing world these days, we're recycling methods, there's alot of new comers so the content can help them out and most ppl arent aware of what you just mentioned and OP isn't super well known in general for the youtube audience etc. Btw you should already know that the co-owner at OP is Yvan ex partner within Optimum, they both ran the company before they left, make sense that they share similar processes and connections. OP is also from Nebraska. Cheers brother. ✌️
@@Detailing_Dogma oh wow that’s dope, when I spoke to Dan years ago he said he was the owner. Or at least we were introduced to him as the owner years ago. We did know Dan was also at Optimum. But I never knew Yvan was co owner. So yeah that makes all kinds of sense, why their products and methods are so similar. Very nice info thanks for sharing.
@@AmirAbdullah Dan is co-owner with some investor at OP, I forgot his name, they were both on the Pints & polishing podcast years ago talking warranty. But I didnt say Yvan was co-owner, they used to work closely when Yvan was VP at optimum. At this time I dont know if they have any relationship, but the investors could be related or not.
I think Ivan never said it's ,,NEW AND INNOVATIVE" he always says its practical and economical, and i tend to agree, still thank's guys for a bit of knowledge into the subject, i knew there techniqes are not new but still making them more accesible for a DIY enthusiast at home is a big feat in my book. Oh and you guys talking about Owners Pride?
Hey a predecessor of my car! 😁 Nice BMW, I love these smaller sporty coupes that's why I bought the new one. Great vid Frank, I use DIY Detail brand too (lately A LOT!), they have some very nice chemicals / their pads are a little to expensive for me here in Poland! Cheers bro, amazing work!
@@Detailing_Dogma Damn Frank i hope i don't spam your vid section too much :) Yeah the 2 series is amazing but i love the 3 also, it's soo comfortable. Mine is kinda basic Portimao Blue, still i like it, had the option between Thundernight metallic or Portimao (always dreamt of a blue BMW, previously i had a black e92, never again a black car, NEVER) but I wish I opted for individual, next time man! Now that i look at yours San Marino and a bunch of other individual im envious :)
Hey man, happy to have you on the channel. Of course I had my fair share of Brake Buster gallons, showcased it in this video with other tips ruclips.net/video/9s1NAfF4nOY/видео.html . It's solid but a lot other competitive products have came along since then. Happy detailing my friend.
What speed are you running on the polisher and how often are you swapping out pads? I've never had a RUPES pad delaminate unless I was running at too high of a speed, with too much pressure or not swapping the pads often enough. Using a Lake Country Pad washer and running down at speed 3-4, I can do an entire car with one pad and it will look brand new afterwards.
Hey Jeff thanks for chiming in, I have always been a speed 5 guy generally even with the corded. I tend to switch pad after 2 panel or 1 hood for example, when I fell its time. Cleaning after every pass with brush or air. But LC foam have been doing that since covid they changed the backing from black to white, the black one never did that. Those rupes are brand new and only coming with a the polisher kit, we'll see. I dont use the pad washer, dont wanna add another thing on the floor for space concerns. Speed 3 or 4 i feel like not doing any work, its a mind thing. Cheers brother. ✌️
Thank you Pigeon appreciate it. Hehe, only buy when needed, i know it's hard to resist. It's very good, smells watermelon and never streaks. Quick and easy good slickness too. Cheers man
The Gold Standard polish, or whatever I am using at the moment. If it's really dirty I have a dedicated glass polish that we're gonna talk on the channel soon. Cheers
Hey Serge, none if you work on well maintained wheels, i'd go with an iron remover kind of wheel cleaner or a automotive APC such as KCX green star. If you have caked up neglected wheels to clean go ahead and get Adams. tinyurl.com/4w99s322
APC no, wheel & tire no and heavy compound neither, glass cleaner & tire dressing no. I didn't plan a video just filmed as I do my thing like most times and used the footage to make up a story for you guys.
What is your opinion on polishing a new car? I bought a second car (a car mainly for weekends) and I want to coat it. Is it worth doing a finish polish on a new car?
Hey Eli, definitely polish a new car, I'd use like you mentioned a finishing polish and pad, address maybe deeper stuff with more aggressive stuff if that doesnt cut it then use a long term coating if you're going to keep the car for a while. The polish in my experience will boost the gloss and depth of your paint even new, not to mention new cars have been rubbed a lot in most cases and needs attention. Hope that answers your question enjoy your new ride. 🤝
@@Detailing_Dogma Thanks for the quick reply, and indeed I was thinking about fine polishing, I was wondering if it would make the clear coat more shiny, even though the car is new... I have polished a lot of cars over the years, some mine some friends and family, But never a new car, I wonder if it will make a difference...
@@eliavedri7876 it will for sure, If you dont have the real lighting you might not see one right away but in certain situation you will. It wont hurt anything to do a finishing polish dont worry, just do 2 ou 3 passes, go coverage and dont over think it. A black, orange or yellow pads should be perfect for this. Remember some new cars sits outside a for a while, gets brushed, rubbed and washed. I have never seen a ''perfect'' new car.
Frank, that car turned out great! Are you still enjoying your Rupes cordless polisher? I was thinking about picking up the Rupes iBrid BigFoot HLR15 soon to deal with the oxidized white paint on my daily driver.
It's ultra smooth and cordless, can't go wrong. I have never had a polisher that smooth, the nerves will appreciate it. That said it stalls a lot but I can manage and handle the machine the way it is. I'm not going back to a cord anytime soon. There's a few technique to avoid that and keep having good correction, I have not downgraded my work after switching from the corded version. If money is no object go for it JP! Thanks for watching
Hey man, glad to have you on the channel. I can't speak for DIY pads I dont have them. Ideally you want to stick a few pads and master them to eventually get the best work in least amount of time. LC makes pads for the majority of brands and their HDO line-up is just pro in every aspect, the backing quality has some issue in last few years but I still love them. The blue is a solid one-step on most paint, cut good and finish respectable. Can't compare to DIY GS since i havent tried it. Keep in mind a wool pad would need a follow up step generally speaking regardless of the brand and yes foam have better finish than wool or MF for sure. cheers. ✌️
I like this job because it’s efficient for both the detailer and the customer and it leaves the vehicle in a state that gives the new owner flexibility on what they want to do. 👍
Hey YZER, None. I use the EZ Detail for the barrel only because I can't clear my brake disc. I'd go with a MF barrel brush if i had the clearance. For the face I use micro-fiber mitts high quality tinyurl.com/35f9jjmz . If you can pre-wash and pressure wash that would help. Almost everything scratches gloss black especially wheels since they get so dirty. Regardless of the bristle it will mare the paint to some degree. Use MF and dont stress too much. cheers
Super vidéo comme toujours j’ai jamais esseyer 3d speed mais souvent je prend 3d One je l’aime bien et tu peu le travailler lontemps , pour ma part j’ai esseyer le linge dargile que tu a utiliser ds la vidéo je l’aime pas du tout la pluspart des vehicule je fait son souvent des poubelles et non jamais eter decomtaminer avec la methode un spray sur le linge et un autre sur la voiture sa enleve presque rien , jaime mieux shoutter iron remover a grandeur et je prend le pad rond nanoskin avec leur lubrifiant cest de la magie sa va super bien javais vu ça sur obsessed garage , continue ton bon travail 👍
Salut Pat, content de te revoir sur la chaine. 3D one et Gold standard sont tres similaires dans tous les sens. Ton linge d'argyle cetait bien celui a DIY?? Pcq ils ne sont pas tous les memes. Sinon cest bizarre jai enormenet de succes avec leur processus meme sur des peintures horrible et negligé. Tous les autres methodes pour moi dans le passé laisse des marques qui doivent etre polis. En tout cas, porte-toi bien mon Pat a bientot.
Exact cest le même de diy , et ta raison javais esseyer beaucoup dautre et a loccasion sa laissais des marques mais surtout quand le linge dargile etait usée , duré de vie de 40 vehicule plus ou moins environs celui que je prend le pad rond de nanoskin a coche
Nice job ! Je vois que je suis pas le seul a pas aimer la forme des ' nouveaux ' pad Rupes J'aimais beaucoup plus leurs première génération de pad .. Perso j'adore le Carpro orange pad pour faire un one step .
Salut GTA merci pour ton bon commentaire en passant. Je prends note de ta recommandation! Malheuresement je suis pogné avec 10 pads de Rupes qui sont venus avec la nouvelle cordless en kit. Leur wools sont bon, la forme aussi mais ouff les foams arrete de spinner partout, la nouvelle cordless stale bcp sa aide pas.

Waterspot remover will always be mine go to for mineral removal from now on, i even use it on my shower glass covered with ultra glaco! It works amazing and i love it. Never did like or use any of the other brands WS, they just destroy any protecion and do nothing basically and cost a bundle.

Haha don't take it personally! Thanks man 😂
Nice video Frank. Big fan of diy products. Makes detailing easier and quicker

What pads and polish would you recommend for me to use for my Rupes HLR15?
