Why is Polishing Flat surfaces harder than Round surfaces - Evan's Detailing and Polishing
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 2 фев 2021
- Well I've finally done it. I found a way to explain the difference between polishing flat surfaces and polishing round surfaces. This may be one of the most important videos I ever put up on my channel. I know that sounds ridiculous but it is definitely one of the most important things to learn. If you can master staying in the shine line and not chasing the black line you will forever do well in polishing. Metal polishing can be difficult at times but flat work doesn't have to be.
I hope this video makes sense and I hope lots of you find it helpful. Thanks for watching.

This video is gold. A problem that I’ve always struggled with, thanks for the in depth explanation.
Happy to help! Thanks for watching.
I’m polishing an Airstream, & have literally watched dozens of videos trying to figure out why I have these occasional thin hazy patches. It’s driving me crazy! This video makes so much sense. Thank you!!!!!
Glad to help. Thanks for watching.
Single handedly fixed my tiger strip issue on flatwork by just not chasing the black line
You are the Bob Ross of polishing! Look at that little tree in my shine!
I like that analogy! I feel there are a lot of great polishers but thank you for that comment.

Best video I found

Thank you I need this right now at this very time. I'm polishing out of Step Van and I'm leaving streaks everywhere. Perfect timing for this video for me! thank you
You got this! Hope it helped. Thanks for watching and commenting.
from Another Evan all the way from Australia, cheers for all the informative content you give out, it's been absolutely instrumental in moving my own business from purely detailing based to offering metal polishing services as well, could i request a video where you go over your biggest mistakes/blunders in your early career and your thought process when it came to those jobs as i think it'll be useful for alot of us newer guys to hear the troubles someone with your amount of experience has had arise over the years. once again thankyou for the awesome content and look forward to more in the future.
You should check out our podcast. Polisher's Corner. They are long but we discuss this on every episode. And with other polishers as well as myself. But yes I should do another video on what to avoid or what to not do to better your business early on. Thank you.
Thanks for the great tip.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching.
Thanks a lot Evan. I always would get the white lines on the flat surface. It makes so much sense now. Great job
Happy to help! Thank you for commenting.
Awesome! New trick of the trade for my toolbox. I’ve always had trouble leaving white lines in the end caps and no matter how many times I’d go over them I’d just move them around, but this video should help me take care of that! Thanks again Evan! Great vids! Keep ‘em coming!👍🏼
Glad to help out. Thanks for watching and supporting.
Cheers Evan awesome video thanks

Great video
Thank you brother. Truly means a lot.
@@EvanStegerMetalPolishing you bet
Dude you are awesome
Appreciate it brother.
I’ve searched you tube for removing scratches from a stainless steel refrigerator. I saw what was available ( NOT MUCH ) and I understand where they are coming from , only because I’ve watched your videos. So I thought , man , if Evan did a video on this with instructions and products then we could come close to a professional result. So if you ever get bored , LOL ! ! ! ! !
No thank you. Lol I have done more appliances than I care to admit and I definitely don't want people getting the idea I want to do more. LOL
@@EvanStegerMetalPolishing LOL , I DONT BLAME YOU , LOL, But I will continue to watch your polishing videos any way , YOUR THE MAN ! ! !
@@marvinjacobs2955 Appreciate that.
Question; Would the surface contact area play a role? I was half expecting you to say that the buff wheel's surface contact is relevant to the black line width. In maintaining equal pressure on the buffing wheel the flat surface has greater contact with the wheel than with a convex surface, and that the different width of the black line is in respect to the relative contact the wheel makes due to the deflection of the buffing wheel.
Great info I’d love to see more like this. Want to get after your online classes how much does it cost?
Information is attached to the video. Cost for the virtual class is $1100.00
Great explanation. Makes total sense now. Two thoughts though- 1)someday,you WILL buff through that tank.2)with a big enough 'fro, you, could pass for Bob Ross
LMMFAO I am def no bob ross. He is the master for sure. But I do look good in a fro. LOL Thanks for watching and commenting.
So I was going to a chrome shop to buy new buffs and compound, and I saw this 8 inch orange buff that was really hard and stiff the texture almost felt like hard sandpaper. And I was wondering that if I had a harder buff it would be more effective for the first step of cutting and polishing. And get that nice shine on the first run. So my question is does it matter how hard or soft the buff is? And does the harder buff scratch and leave marks on the aluminum? 🤔🤔
Your explanation about pressure build-up being greater on a flat surface vs rounded one is spot on. The part about slinging the compound is wrong, the slinging distance on rounded surface would be greater, however the air pressure build-up on flat surface overwhelms the compound slinging and creates wider compound line on flat surface.
Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment.
Super simple he says 🤣 thats awesome thanks this helps tons
Happy to help.
Okay you explain the problem now what do we do about it please let me know cuz there's a big problem on me
Can you please tell me .once you have polished a tank .what would you use to stop it going dull again .would you put wax over the polished surface to prolong the shine .thanks
Hand polish is the only realistic option. Aluminum needs to breath. And going dull is what it does. If you clear coat it it'll dull. If you wax it it'll dull. It is what it does. LOL
so the solution to not leave marks on flat surfaces is to keep your polishing gap smaller?
Why do you use the harbor freight buffers
I don't use harbor freight buffers.
I have a question what do you do about the black lines
Video posted, sorry for the late response.
So how about some aerodynamic buffs?
Love it. Next great idea. Imma name this one after you. Thank you bud for the support.
It is my default all time ! Flat surface buff more tighter than round surface ??
Yes.
I always blamed it on reflection, concave mirrors are different than flat mirrors.
Interesting idea for sure.
How many trucks do you do a day
On average 3-4 trucks a day.
Can you split the flat side in half
You can but you shouldn't. Anytime you split anything you will see the difference.
@@EvanStegerMetalPolishing thank you for the great advice again Evan ! Just like to say always great to get good advice from a good man like you ! Great videos too
That wind is kinda like a firehose hitting a wall.. Got nowhere to go
Exactly right. Thanks for watching.
What is a flowescent light? You mean florescent?
Not sure what you mean.
@@EvanStegerMetalPolishing look at the whiteboard. Says replace flowescent lights upstairs
@@moosey1978 Oh gotcha. Yeah my guys in the shop just write stuff fast. I understand. Flourescent doesn't really matter to me.
🙏🙏🙏💰💰💰💪💪💪
Keep Grindin!
@@EvanStegerMetalPolishing appreciate your time and effort Evan. This was the explanation I needed that changed everything
Bob ross😂
I mean I can look good in a fro but I can't draw... LOL
1 aluminum tank thumbs down this lol
I can't please everyone. LOL Thanks for watching.
I have a question what do you do about the black lines
