When to Polish vs Compound vs Wetsand

Have you ever debated whether to Polish or Compound...or maybe you need to wetsand? But how do you know how each is capable of "repairing" on the paint? In this episode, we discuss what each process accomplishes on the same scratch to better understand the capabilities and purpose of each respective technique. Hope you enjoy!

I'm here almost a year later and just watching this video for the first time. I can't agree with the OP enough, and I'm just as grateful and blown away as he was. And for every person who says so in the comments, there must be 10's (100's...? 1,000's...?) who feel the same way as well. All I can do is think "thank you!" for such a great video each time I watch a new one and learn from it. These are some of the best anywhere, for sure.

[@adroitus]

I tried to find a nice GS430 recently, they're not that common.

[@lexusls]

David Keeth a 04-06 LS430 with “euro tuned sport suspension” (NOT the air suspension in “sport” mode) is very close to what a GS430 is like. It’s a little bigger and heavier but same engine and transmission as the GS430. I’ve owned an 04 LS with sport suspension for 4 1/2 years and it is hands-down the best car I’ve ever owned. Outrageously comfortable, smooth, luxurious, and crazy reliable. The sport suspension is the perfect compromise of slightly stiffened suspension to reduced body roll/squatting/nose-diving for more ‘sporty’ handling while maintaining a softer/compliant ride. Unfortunately LS430s with sport suspension aren’t super common either, and most dealers/people selling them don’t list it in the ad because they don’t know the car has it. Other than looking up the VIN, the only way to tell if an LS has it is to look for a very small subtle badge on the front fenders between the front tires and the front doors

[@micaiasr.madera5053]

Man, you are a star. This one video is all I needed to understand what I need to do with my car. Every educator must teach people how to think, how to understand the subject, not what to do. You are good at that.

[@CraZzy3n3rGy]

This is literally perfection. The video ended so quickly for me because of how it was edited and the amount of information you provided. Thanks

[@lt1_jio363]

Hands down the most effective way of teaching the differences! Made it so simple to understand for someone who’s never done it 👍🏼

[@andyjohnstone3451]

I’ve been researching this whole subject for weeks, and was really confused. This video was just fantastic, and I loved the way that you were actually teaching what we should look for, and how to respond to what we find. Most videos simply record a process, which actually tells you very little. Very well done to all involved. A MUST WATCH.

[@paulbruns8399]

I've done detail work and paint refinishing for 30 year's. I think your explanation is one of the best I've seen online. You did a good job explaining and showing the process that is used to remove paint imperfections.

[@michaelamira4592]

This has to be one of the best KZbin instructional videos I have ever seen. You gave great analogies, like the knives. The top about for jambs for reading clear coat depth, priceless. You didn't try to sell anything, just that one process isn't better than another, but when to use which process. Thank you for a great learning video.

[@tmulliganii01]

The answer to most complex questions is a subtle and customized solution, thanks for going through the mechanics of approaching this.

[@jamesbiedlar590]

Brian from the Apex channel is always urging us to grab panels from body shops to practice and learn wet sanding as an important way to cut ( when needed) to keep temperature down on panels. Its all making sense as I heard you mention that. I am learning so much from all you guys....so thankful! 😀

[@Hole_Motorsports]

big fan of grabbing junkyard panels

[@napalmninjette]

The most clear and concise EDUCATION on the subject I've ever seen. Being told the steps vs. Giving an actual working knowledge allows for an understanding and then the ability to assess each job correctly and to be able to work out the best approach whatever that may be. Your analogies are perfect and provide that profound feeling you get when you truly "get it". Very impressed . found myself watching what a good educator he is more than the paint! Lol

You, my friend are THE authority on detailing. Using your videos and advice, I've restored my parents' 15 year old SUV to a better shine than it had the day they bought it; I bought a car I always wanted (it was 10 years old at the time, and was a bit beat up) - and I made it look better than new; and now I'm starting up a side business where I fix minor scratches, swirls and paint defects for many of my coworkers (who are really rich and tend to drive Porsches and S-Classes). So thank you Larry - you truly are a valuable resource, and a staple in the detailing community.

[@jefffranzino8848]

Fantastic video presentation!!!! The 3 zones you taped off and your explanation for each was on point!!!! Thanks so much!!

[@Can8ian.]

I detail cars at a used car dealership and this was a very well done tutorial. You explained very well the differences between wet sanding, cutting(compound) and polishing. A trick I learned to tell if the clear coat is thin is to use a laser pointer. Shine the laser at the paint (at 90 degrees) and if the clear is thick, you will see a glow in the clear coat around the laser dot, if you see no glow, the clear coat is very thin. My boss is too cheap to buy a paint thickness gauge so I had to come up with an alternative to prevent the inevitable burning through thin clear.

I love when you say "hope this was somewhat helpful" when really Larry, yours the only person anyone would want to learn from and you've taught me so much for free. I feel like I owe you so much. Fact, I know I do. I've rematched multiple videos of yours hoping that I can retain everything you say and hoping the views help give you some money in return because frankly I'm a broke dude working on his own car trying to make it go from a clunker to glass.
