[@3myluckynumber]

Maybe there are two reasons why paint measurment is so disappointing on new cars: 1st Car manufacturers don't expect their cars to acquire some value to the future automobile hall of fame when they become vintage 2nd Fashion is no polluting so by this way you save some money (in this case millions) over thousands & thousands of new cars build

[@deporterdetailing]

Great video and great advice! I wanted to add my two cents if you don’t mind; leave some room for those upsells (or the other options that you offered someone and they didn’t initially go with, because the chances are they will go with them when you mention it again when they drop off or they will device on their own) and then you’ve already allocated enough time to do them without compromising quality or having to push other customers back or having to push yourself and work overtime and take a toll on yourself. Great video per usual!

[@sergeyrudnitskiy7579]

Greetings with 150 000 !!! Desurved much more, but they to come) As usual, amazing lesson and experience sharing. Important and valuable info sharing - thanks Sandro! Will we see nephew Uncle Sandro? Just joking, but there is a filling we all (150 000) are the best friends to you) And just imagine: rain with light snow, around zero Celsius, grey sky and soft sofa, Sony TV, Hi-Fi, hot coffee and enjoying the favorite serial (which came lqter this weekend by the way:-) ) with great music and highest quality.

[@vcorruptc1509]

I just got my 2021 STI like 3 weeks ago and i can confirm that the dealership swirled it up really bad. About 2-3x worse than the STI in the video. It looks as if they used a cleaning broom to wash my car. I complained and subaru said they will detail it for me. At least i have close friends that will detail it for me if it still looks bad.

[@1974gladiateur]

The lockdown is hard on detailing

[@brentonl1746]

As I have mentioned before it astounds me that you can spend $100k + on a brand new car and the dealer thinks it is ok to deliver a car with scratches and swirls. To me you select a colour to highlight the cars shape and lines so the car is presented in the best light. I just don't understand the lack of care not given to this detail, have they not heard of the saying "First Impressions" thanks for your dedication and expertise much appreciated.

[@Ludo_A]

In a lot of video's it is forwarding/skipping x times per video. Not with Sandro's because everything he says is important and can be learned from, so NO skipping at all but listen it all out! Looking forward to the next part(s)!

[@willmalliotis1904]

Did you replace the crappy gaskets for the metal shims during the process?

[@turbomax2001]

Would it be more cost effective to use whatever ratio of isopropyl alcohol and water, versus those paint prep sprays? Is the paint prep spray doing anything the IPA mix doesn't do? Just curious so I know if its worth spending the money on that stuff.

[@CarCraftAutoDetailing]

They are quite similar in performance but a little nicer to use. If you can get the isopropyl alcohol in bulk at a good price as well as some distilled water you can save some money, but at least here in Australia 100% isopropyl is very expensive as is distilled water to the point that it’s usually cheaper to buy these panel sprays in bulk.

[@Chris-vg8ql]

Love your videos!! With all of the knowledge from your videos I'm going to paint correct and cermaic coat my car. It just happens to be a 2018 Subaru Sti Type Ra in World Rally Blue!! Can't wait for the 2nd video. My STI has about 2.5x more swirls than this overall. Do you think Carpro Essence with a Lake County Orange Polishing pad on a Torqux DA will be enough to remove the swirls considering how soft the paint is? Also, how would I go about correcting a Caron Fiber with a gel coat? Mh roof and wing are CF

[@CarCraftAutoDetailing]

Thanks, and if the swirls are deeper you may need something with a little more cut but I think that could be a good place to start and just see if it works well in a test section. You can use the same pads and compounds to correct carbon fibre, but it’s usually a little harder to remove defects on it so you may need to use a slightly more aggressive combination.

[@Chris-vg8ql]

@@CarCraftAutoDetailing Thanks for your insight! Excited to give it a try.

[@Steathl]

Hey Sandro! How would you remove a ceramic coating?

[@CarCraftAutoDetailing]

It depends on how old it is and how well it’s still performing. But a good thorough decontamination process followed by polishing or compounding (depending) should remove it

[@rifayahamed2640]

Hi which type of clay is best like bar, mitt or towel ?

[@CarCraftAutoDetailing]

There’s no clear cut answer for that, but I do discuss automotive clay in this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aoKwm6dqr9mKqNU

[@justanaverageguy1351]

It's so hard to find a good detailer. Bought a new car, went straight to the detailer from the dealership for a ppf and ceramic coating and I've had to take it back 3 times to get the film reapplied. Totally regret spending nearly $4000, the film has been nothing more than a headache. Even had to wash the car myself, after taking it to them TO BE WASHED, because they had done such a bad job.

[@seleckt6600]

Question for you, as I'm just about to start a ~week long process of completely detailing my car and ceramic coating it. Is it possible to polish black plastics? I have an evo 10, and it has a very large plastic diffuser. It's taken quite a beating over the years, and major scratches and gouges can't be repaired, im more concerned about recovering the sheen it had when new, as it's now more of a dark grey than the black it should be.

[@CarCraftAutoDetailing]

Also long as it’s a gloss plastic yes you can absolutely polish it using paint compounds and polishes.

[@daveharris7024]

Fantastic content as always, glad to have found your channel :). May I ask, why do you foam / rinse from bottom to top, I’ve always been taught top to bottom, just curious!

[@CarCraftAutoDetailing]

Thanks, and I don’t generally rinse from bottom up - there a bit of a segment of detailers and enthusiasts that do I’m always trying different techniques so I I’ve been testing this one out.

[@kylebliss8743]

@@CarCraftAutoDetailing oh that’s neat! Have you seen any benefits?

[@CarCraftAutoDetailing]

You are able to see and keep track of where you’ve precisely rinsed a little better and it does force you to rinse longer and more thoroughly because you are working against gravity, so they can been seen as advantages, but there is also the question of whether pushing dirt back up to run down and reintroducing it on the upper panels is a better way to go, and I’m not entirely convinced- but we’ll see!

No, isopropyl alcohol is really pure alcohol while methylated spirits is more of an alcohol petroleum cocktail. Isopropyl alcohol diluted with deionised water (1:4) tends to be a an idea preparation car panel wipe.

[@CarCraftAutoDetailing]

There is quite an expensive and large chemical separation drain that sits under the vehicle in my wash bay and an exterior holding chemical tank - it’s something that in my area is required by law. Although I don’t have any first hand experience with them, I do believe that there are mobile/non-permanent water/chemical catchers that can be setup as a perimeter around the car to contain the water/chemicals and store them for later disposal, but I don’t know who makes them or where they are available unfortunately.

Hello, is there a product you use to prevent the brake rotors from rusting after a wash? I am having this issue. I don't want to drive the car to dry the brakes because often times I wash in the rain and driving would inevitably get the car dirty again before pulling back into the garage. I appreciate the great videos. Thanks

[@CarCraftAutoDetailing]

Although I don’t personally use it, there is a product called Hyde’s Rustopper that if sprayed immediately after the rotors get wet will prevent the rust from forming.

[@TwylaV]

Thank you for your input. Is there another method you use to prevent the rust or do you let rust and be removed naturally on the next drive? It looks horrible the day after a wash, I wonder if my water has something to do with it. They rust and then the rust-water drips onto my wheels and leaves them dirty on my next drive so its something I'd like to counteract. Thank you again@@CarCraftAutoDetailing

I own a 2019 Subaru wrx cvt premium (36k msrp, bought it for 26k) and let me tell you its an amazing car and there is nothing that compares at that price point, (the civic, veloster, gti, and ford st products are either less value or way to much money for what you get) but the two places Subaru cost cut to hit the super low price points were the interior which has an insane amount of abs plastic and limited foam for rattle protection. And the paint. I have a lot of little rock chips and I use touch up to help mitigate that but if I would have known how bad the paint was from day 1 and had the money (which to be honest I really didn't) I would have gotten a high quality paint protection film even though I really hate paint protection films. I am a purist in the sense I like a thick clear for protection and not a film but I think on the wrx/sti it makes sense. It's to late for me to take that approach but for new buyers I would recommend it. I wish Subaru had an option for the paint level Acura offers on the NSX but in a world of cost savings it just wasn't available. I am currently in the process of turning most of my interior panels from plastic to leather or alcantera but it is a big task.

You should have taken that spoiler off, it ruins such a nice car

it's iconic rally heritage. check out the less aggressive wrx, that may be more your speed 😉

I actually can’t keep watching I need to stop the video. How can the paint be so knackered? My 11 years old Mercedes has a better paint
