One of the best tutorials I've ever seen on product / pad choices. Well done chelsea!! 👍🇨🇦
Very nice tutorial. Appreciate you going through each pad color and including foam, microfiber and wool. I also appreciated you introducing the concept of mixing and matching pad aggressiveness with product aggressiveness. That is more nuanced (more aggressive pad with less aggressive product etc) and almost never covered in RUclips tutorials. BTW, the final product looks fabulous!
this is excellent content, thank you. this is the big difference between home enthusiasts and pros. both wash a lot of cars a lot of times. however, a home enthusiast corrects paint once, maybe twice a year. pros cut paint every week, many every day, and paint correction know-how is empirically gained. you have to do it, a lot. one can only learn by correcting a lot of paint. videos like this, with continuity, are the best information for the home enthusiast. everything else, they do on their car frequently and have lots of practice doing it (I mean, how, many 2-bucket instruction washes does one need?); but cutting paint is only done occasionally at home (unless they have a fleet). one bottle of compound would last a lifetime for a home enthusiast. you have more pads than most detailing stores. video is great. more, please.
This will be a helpful resource. Thanks so much for taking the time to create and share this video.
Thank you Chelsea. One of the best pad discussions I have seen as well as soft to hard paints and combinations!
Your explanations of proper techniques are outstanding concerning all aspects of detailing. At some point, you should, family/time permitting, offer introduction to advanced detail classes. I’m sure you would get many candidates. As an enthusiast, I absorb bits and pieces of detail techniques to improve my detailing process. More TikTok shorts, based on your full videos, will also help.
Agree Al. Chelsea is an amazing detailer par excellence! I'm in absolute awe when she does the interior details. I've not yet seen anyone whose finished results are as immaculate as Chelsea's. One of my top five overall detailers for sure, and my number one for interiors by a country mile.
Great video and great tutorial.
New cars can be as bad as trade-ins.
When I detailed in the dealership we would get dealer trades in that were absolutely mauled.
I spent a lot of hours buffing and polishing on those cars to make them look like a new car is suppose to look.
That charger turned out fantastic.
Very informative video. I just use common sense and start with a less aggressive approach. I’ve been playing around with 3D xtracut and some 3D one on a green shine mate foam pad. I did a 10 year old Hyundai and it almost was a one step. I decided to finish with phoenix fabulous finish.
I’m always measuring paint thickness before and after.
Thanks
I didn't realize how pad dependent that TW one and done is. It did a fantastic job smoothing out and glossing my paint but I didn't have a strong enough pad to actually correct. I learned my lesson. I tried a black and then orange Lake country pad but they weren't enough. I learned the hard way to buy a few different pads because you really don't know how the paint is going to react. I tried that and Perfect Finish. Neither one corrected with an orange pad.
Really great video and topic to cover. Everything covered was done very well and easy to follow along with . This video and the livestream was great and the costumer should have loved it.
This was really helpful, thanks!
The best video I have seen on the paint correction process Your videos are some of the best on the tube. But this one was great
Wow Chelsea this video is an awesome learning tool. Thank you for this one I saved it to my important car detail videos. I am late to this one but to be honest I am just getting started with your channel and in detailing.
Informative video. Now I know the difference between the pads.Thank you Chelsea !!!!
This is honestly the best video on polishing pads 👏
Great video! A lot of info! Car turned out great! I have been using TW , Sonax Cut and Finish, and 3D One for one steps mostly. Since they all work forever I do what I call a step and a half. I leave they polish on after using a fiber pad and go over the area with a white pad. Usually works well.
Yes I enjoy that method as well
Great video. Consider giving 3D 510/520 a try on the same pad for a one-step. I have been using it quite a bit lately on everything med-hard with a blue pad and the results are downright impressive. Super great cut with long work time and great finish.
On medium and hard paints I like to use meguiar's M110 & M210, good cut and finish and almost no dust. I also like on really really hard paints, finish with M205. On softer paints meguiar's ultimate compound and ultimate polish do an excellent job. But it's still good to work with a ptg to get an idea of the thickness of the paint or clear coat.
I use all of those Megs products..
I love M110 and M210.
I love 3D and Optimun Hyper Polish too.
But Megs was my first back in the 90's!
Great information !
Awesome stuff Chelsea :)
Thanks!
Appreciate the walk through of your arsenal and explanations, it's amazing how versatile professional detailers need to be at this level of detail, I don't remember this when I worked in a detail shop 20 years ago. I just did a driveway paint enhancement on my GM weekend driver with Hyper Polish, ONR to wet wipe, 21mm DA and Lake Country orange waffle pro pads; turned out great, I love using Hyper Polish and wet wiping the residue, so user friendly for an amateur like me and it still did some nice correction with the light cutting pad. I have Sonax Cutmax (I think?) and LC purple wooled foam pads for more aggressive spot correction, and I have a couple LC black microfiber polishing pads if needed. If I had any more I'd probably just confuse myself, forget what I did the last time I polished!
Sounds like a great setup!
Informative video
What is the most agressive pad you know of or have used? And what's the most agressive compound/pad combo you've used? Thank you!
Got to agree with you about the Precision Platelet. I removed a lot of defects from a 15 year old Audi 7-seater with Lake Country orange CCS pads and Lake Country white CCS pads. The gloss was unreal and I really didn't want to dullen it with sealant or wax. Thankfully the P&S Beadmaker just made it pop even more! Keep up the amazing work Chelsea. Your advice is so valuable and appreciated by us in your A2D community.
Most aggressive pad wss probably the Rupes Coarse Wool Pads and most aggressive compound would be ACA500 but I haven't used that much. D300, Jescar Correcting Compound, The Last Cut and Koch Chemie H901 would all be very similar in correction that I've used
@@attention2detailswchelsea Hi Chelsea. Thanks for your swift response to my questions. I'm tempted to purchase some ACA500 but I've got KC H901 and also H802 so I probably won't need it. Still, never say never. Blessings to you and yours!
Great video! Thanks for showing and sharing tips on polishing paint very helpful keep videos coming!
Great video. Thanks
Wow one off the best informative video on paint correction
What an arsenal you have there pads are the best ones out there right on point fluids are little too much to choose from though 😂
The Rupes Yellow and Blue bottles surprised me a lot. Those 2 will handle a lot of different situations. They change a lot with different pads which is awesome. Or Sonax cut max and Perfect Finish as well. I really want to try Papa cut and Fab finishing polish.
Great stuff! Thus is something that takes practice. I think the throw on your polisher makes a difference to.
It definitely does. Great point to add
Oh wow! Goals on the pad collection. Any ideas for a paint thickness guage that is not toooo expensive?

Excellent tutorial. Apparently your first test area provides important feedback. I’ve never done any of this before. Someone keyed my car and I took it to a detailer to get the paint corrected and he cleaned it, clayed, and waxed it and told me he could diminish the scratch by 50 percent and it required 5 minutes of wet sanding to reduce edges of a long very narrow scratch. He didn’t really improve the look of the scratch whatsoever - although the rest of the car did look very good (2016 Camry celestial silver). I paid him but I’m positive he didn’t wet sand anything and just tried to fill scratch with touch up paint.
I wished I hadn’t paid him but I live alone and wanted my car back.
Since then, I’ve watched just about every video there is and purchased about 400.00 to 500.00 in supplies myself because I don’t know of anyone in my area that has the paint correction knowledge to do it right-so begrudgingly, I’m going to do it myself in the spring.
BTW, do you know of a reputable detailer near the Albany NY area that isn’t afraid to try to wet sand and correct a scratch?? I find most people just want to clean it, clay it, and do a quick polish and final coat.
Anyhow, thanks for the informative videos and I liked your comment about you not letting your ego get in the way and the comment about managing expectations-good things to not only use in car detailing but in life in general.
I have a 2018 jeep wrangler with metallic silver paint. I watched your video on polishing jeeps and figured it must have hard clear on it. But maybe I am wrong.
Most Jeeps are soft paint that can be finicky
@@attention2detailswchelsea Thanks for the heads up.
You are the best!!! Thank you so much!!!
Great video! A reminder for me to leave my ego at the front door.
Hard to remove defects, yet hazed with a not too harsh combo. Talk about a conundrum! Ahhh, the challenges of detailing! How does TW compare to 3D One as far as cut/finish?
I think it cuts a tick more but 3d One may finish down better thanks to its long work time and oils
Great content as always Chelsea! I’m learning so much from you! I’m about to correct my first car. My very own dark metallic grey 2011 Subaru Forester. She’s never been polished or properly detailed. I was thinking of going with KC H901 and KC M302. Do you think I could use KC F601 as a one step with the KC yellow pad or Lake Country blue or orange? Or do you have a better recommendation for a pad polish combo for my Soob? Thanks! And keep the great content coming!
Subaru has soft paint so avoid h901 unless its hammered but expect to make it a 2 step if you do. Try F601 or M302 and a yellow or orange foam pad but you may need to finish down with a white foam pad if your pad leaves ghosting.
@@attention2detailswchelsea Awesome! Will do Chelsea. I’ll let you know how it turns out! Thoughts on a Uro Fiber 50/50 with 601 or 302? Too much?
Fantastic and informative video ;)
Hey Chelsea, great video! Thank you for explaining that all for us. One thing I heard you mention throughout the video was when a compound/polish “finishes down well”. Can you explain what we should feeling and observation we should have when a compound or polish finishes down well and also when it doesn’t finish down well? Is it simply, if no hazing or micro-marring occurs after then it has finished down well? Or are you referring to the compound/polish physically diminishes and breaks down during the polishing? Is there a point where you can feel the machine polisher feels different on the paint and that’s when we can know that it’s starting to diminish out? Thank a bunch Chelsea!
You won’t feel a significant difference with your machine (although if you’ve worked the product down too far you will feel it starting to be gummy and it will look gummy as well) but to finish down well I am referring to its ability to show clarity on the paint. If it has no micromarring or ghosting or haze it finishes down well but if it requires a second step to remove those things then it’s not finished down well and needs an actual finishing polish.
@@attention2detailswchelsea Chelsea, thank you so much for getting back to me and clarifying this. This all makes sense now. You’re the best!
Fast correcting cream and a blue Hdo pad
The next great innovation for me would be to have a product to add a layer of clear coating
I have a Toyota car can I used a 3d one with a blue pads or white pads
When do you usually go to the 50/50 pad?
Great video! Have you tried Car Pro Ultracut? Amazing heavy cut. I would have never thought you could 1 step with a heavy cut but it amazed me on med-hard paint.
Ever work on any Hyundai cars with black paint? Any recommendations on how to handle those cars?
My experience is they are harder paint but always do a test spot first to determine that
Anyone have experience with BMW i3 paint correction?? Suggestions?
Great content! Thanks. Just getting into paint enhancement/correction and this really helps. One question - can you mix brands of pads during the same correction, as long as they are the same color density (for example, I have 3-4 orange CG Hex Logic pads but find I need another pad during the correction, can I use an orange Lake Country instead of stopping and cleaning my CG pads)? Full disclosure - I only do this as a DIY'er on my own cars. Not a professional by any means.
I've got pads from Lake Country, Meguiars, SPTA, Autobrite Direct, Rupes and more. I often do exactly what you describe. However, when you do switch brand just ensure beforehand that the pad hardness is like-for-like and you do a small test spot before committing to correcting a whole panel. Just because they seem to be the same density and firmness doesn't always translate as such on a panel.
@@as680783 Great! Thanks
Yes just know some pad density may vary slightly so one brands orange may be more aggressive than anothers. You can also wash them on the fly or use a pad washer if you don't want to buy more pads.
@@attention2detailswchelsea sounds good. Thank you
hi would you answer some questions? i am wondering if i have a normal paint defects that i could do with a one step. but there are 2 or 3 deep scratches that i can feel with my finger nail(not throguth the clear coat tho) and i dont want to coumpound or sand that until there is almost no clear coat left around, but i still want to get rid of that scratch, do i just have to sand the heck out of it anyway bcs its the only way or can i fill it up with new clear coat after smoothing it up or is there something else?
If it’s not through the clear you can blend it with polishing and normally sanding shouldn’t be required for that. You could try on the deep scratches the 5-5-5 method from DIY Detail with their purple wool pad and gold standard polish for the deep scratches and then the rest of the vehicle use their gold waffle pad and do a quality one step
@@attention2detailswchelsea thanks
Hey Chels, a very cool vid, learned a lot, I've got a question though, gonna do a polish on my mom's Toyota CHR 2019, I've heard it's soft paint (read on various forums, asked around generally), the hood is kinda worn as my mom always brushes the snow with a cheap brush, have sonax perfect finish and ultimate cut (along with cutting and finishing pads) you think it's a good combo? Cheers :) ah and I've got a 9mm throw polisher (I know it's not a big throw but it's what I've got :)
I’d start with SPF and a white or orange foam pad, work up to a yellow pad and if that doesn’t do it then bump up to a medium polish like diy detail Gold Standard and their gold waffle pad. That may be all you need. Id use ultimate cut as a last resort if those don’t do the trick but you will probably have to do a 2 step if you do need that to finish down properly with SPF and either the white or orange foam pad. Work your way up from soft to hard in product and pad and if you have to go that extreme on soft paint you’ll have to work your way back down. But be mindful every step removes clear coat so if you can use a paint thickness gauge first to determine how much paint you have to work with. Personally I’d try the gold standard and yellow foam
Pad and more than likely that will correct and finish down in one step on a 2019 Toyota vs having to do multiple steps with multiple products to see what works. I’ve been impressed with how those products work well on most paints and scenarios
I encounter.

one at that!

Your quickly becoming my fav channel on detailing! Keep it up and all the best for you and your family!
Great video Chelsea. We just picked up a new Honda Civic in Crystal Black Pearl. Soft Paint. I've polished the hood and trunk to take out bird bomb etching with a LC Flat Orange pad using 3D Speed. So far it's finished out good. Before coating I'm going to try a white and black pad to see which one finishes out with 3D One better. I picked Gyeon Mohs for the coating. Have you used that and do you like it?
Yes GYEON coatings are very user friendly and are very enjoyable to work with.
Where’s papa cut and fabulous polish from Phoenix eod? That is what I recommend you use.
Anyone know what a 2021 jeep Cherokee paint hardness would be?
Most Jeep paint I’ve worked on is soft and finicky. Aggressive correction will require additional steps to finish down without marring. I enjoy optimum hyper finish and a white or orange pad to finish with.
You have any videos on polishing Toyota soft paint?
What do you suggest for metallic red Tesla paint?
In my experience, Tesla paint is soft so I would do something more like a Sonax perfect finish, Koch Chemie F601 or M302 or Optimum Hyper Polish and a white or orange foam pad at least for your final step. If you need more correction, whatever you choose to correct might cause micro marring so you might have to do a two-step and finish down with one of the finishing polishes I listed above and a white foam pad
I drive an Alfa Romeo with the soft red non metallic paint with some medium to severe swirls gonna try sonax perfect finish with a medium pad as a one step hope i get away with it , do you have any experience with Alfa's soft paint?
That’s a good place to start but you could also try DIY Detail gold standard with their waffle pad
@@attention2detailswchelsea Thanks for answering, unfortunately i live in Europe otherwise i would choose the diy kit its super easy to use
Hi, i have a Renault Megane RS in Flame Red. Its a 2 stage paint and they use a tinted clear coat, Its super glossy already. I bought some products few year for detailing my last car but never did. I have 6 rupes yellow foam pads, 6 rupes white foam pads. Uro 50/50 microfibre pads white & yellow again 6 in total. Also i have a good DA. My pads are like 5 or 6 inch pads.
I have HD speed, meguiars ultimate polish, G6 cutting compound, poorboys EX-p Sealant, claybar, tar remover and fallout remover and everything for prep except maybe a wash thats specfic for removing polishes but i do have a foam wash i use for my 2 bucket method.. I was going to go over car with isopropyl alcohol as a panel wipe and hope that gets anything off thats left on.
My paint looks great but has very light marks. I was looking at buying Micro Cut M3.02 and just going straight for a white foam pad and doing like 4-5 passes on each panel? Would this do some correction and leave me with a nice finish and keep my clear coat intact enough to last as a daily driver? I just dont know if my current products are good enough or i should get this finishing polish.
The car is in amazing shape but there is light marks, not swirls per say just marks you can see in sunlight here and there. I want some light correction while maintaining gloss and not hammering the clear... do you recommend Micro Cut M3.02 as iv seen your other video where you prefer it to Sonex PF?? Thanks
M302 should be a great product for that purpose
@@attention2detailswchelsea Thank you so much going to order some now. Ill try my white pads and go to yellow if the defects dont seem to budge after a few passes
@@johnboy2436 the natural progression would ideally be white to orange then yellow.
@@attention2detailswchelsea hoping i dont have to buy some orange pads. I spend over 500 on pads alone im pretty sure. I think these rupes pads for the 6inch DA where like 15 each and i bought 6 white and 6 yellow. One for each panel! Then i bought alot of microfibre pads etc. Hoping white or yellow will be enough. if i have any issues maybe ill have to get orange
have you tried Buff&shine pads ?
Not too terribly much as my arsenal is pretty full at the moment
How Hyundai kona 2019 is it soft or hard or even medium paint
Hyundai normally is on the hard side but your test spot should help you determine that. Some have been VERY hard for me
Just found your channel and it has a lot of great info. I was watching an older video with the G9 polisher where you used the yellow Rupes pads (older version). I see they released a new DA version of these yellow pads, are these pads similar or better? Looking for a good pad to pair with correction cream. Thanks!
They may not be quite as durable but they are still great pads.
hey I want to correct my 16 Gmc Sierra black. Do you know what gm black is? Soft, medium, hard?
Typically they are soft and can be somewhat finicky
Im taking in all of the info and am new to all of this and have been detailing boats but want to try on my black gmc sierra. Im going to get a few compounds and polishes and pads. I have swirls but not super deep I dont think. Should I just get white,orange,yellow foam pads and hyper polish and just go from there? Thanks in advance, Nice videos I enjoy all the info..
Could you recommend some soaps to prep the paint before the correction? I've found that the ones I've been using interfere with the cut. Makes the paint look glossy and shinny until it rains.
Mckees 37 Coating Prep Wash is the best I've found to prep for coatings. Apex Auto Wash is another good one (no extra stuff added, just cleans + lubricity)
Thanks for the video. tons of useful info. Not sure if you've work on a Polestar2 and know it Polestar uses a hard, medium or soft paint. Any info you can share about the Polestar paint would be really appreciated.
Subscrided.
Hey Chelsea , when you said even a yellow pad left soft haze so you called the customer to get the ok for a 2 step , what if they had said no would you leave it like that? Or just needed the okay for the upcharge
Just needed the okay for the upcharge but I would have finished out that panel to no haze and then figured out another product that would be a 1 step that wouldn’t have corrected as much but avoided the haze but fortunately they were okay with it and understood

@@indiggioman I did once and wasn't a fan of it but apparently my technique wasn't accurate according to what people said because you need a damp towel to remove it and apparently that's why my experience was not pleasant but I threw it out after I used it so I can't retest that theory

Yes. A damp towel can help with removal
So what’s your opinion on the mckee’s 37 line up I never see any detailer using it besides the demo videos from McKee’s but I see u have it in the video so wanted to know your honest opinion on the line up
Ive used them since I started detailing. If you want premium products, they are some of the best in the business. Specifically designed products for pretty much every square surface of the vehicle. Formulas all work, smell great and customer service is amazing. Don't even ask me which are my favs cause the list would be too long
Great information! Can you recommend a pad/ compound combo for single stage paint?
All single stage is going to vary in my approach based on condition as most are older and the ones IVE seen have crows feet or delamination going on so I normally take a sensitive approach to them and use something like Sonax Perfect Finish. But for modern single stage paints I normally use a Meguiars Cleaner Wax as they normally need polishing more than heavy correction. But I dont see single stage too frequently, only a handful of time and they had crows feet which required a special approach because too much polishing will fill the cracks with polish residue.
@@attention2detailswchelsea thank you Chelsea, I’ll go with what you did!
Mckees spray polish vs optimum hyperpolish.... Thoughts?
I think Optimum has more correctability and performs better imo but the spray polish isnt bad. I just prefer OHP
What would you recommend for a two-step correction on 2013 Honda paint heavily swirled needs to be removed around 1200 grit sanding marks
Do you recommend sonax or do you recommend 3D I currently have Maguire's m210 and 110
Try meguiars 110 followed by 210. Maybe start with a blue or yellow pad as Honda paint is typically soft and corrects rather easily but can mar or haze if compounded too aggressively so may need to make it a 2 step
Is there any compound you recommend that might work better on Honda paint? Blue pad from rupes or lake county?
