How To Squeeze A Little More GLOSS Out Of Your Paint Correction!! Crisp Reflections & Depth!!

In this video, I show how you can get even higher gloss from your paint correction. From the pro to the enthusiast or driveway detailer, achieve the highest gloss in your area! Paint correction is an auto detailing procedure that removes hazing, minor scratches, marring, swirl marks, and other blemishes on the vehicle's clear coat. It does this by using specialized machines and polishing compounds to slowly remove microscopic layers of clear coat until the surface is smooth again.
Phoenix EOD PAPA Cut.....www.phoenixeod...
This innovative formulation and diminishing abrasive system, provides a level of cut and finishes with high gloss; haze-free finish unmatched by any other compound on the market.

This step adds only small improvements...but may put your vehicle's appearance over the top. Is it worth it to YOU?

[@NipkowDisk]

I jeweled my 2017 Accord by hand using Menzerna 3800 and a lot of elbow grease. It was a minor but noticeable improvement and well worth it IMO.

[@richardseem7948]

ABSOLUTELY

[@nicholasthomas3635]

Light colored cars will be more forgiving in going w/this budget minded step.

[@M.E63]

Really depends on the colour as some colours are hard to make the paint pop

[@danakern2440]

Definitely worth it to me thanks for the tip

[@riccochet704]

I'm happy you are showing what can be done outside. A lot of people don't have a shop or garage to work in, or even shade.

[@faisalhaider007]

Thanks for this vid! Where everyone says it is bad to do in the sun, not all of us have the luxury of closed space.

[@georgina_gsm]

First time I heard of Jeweling was Yvan so great to see how others do it too!

[@neilwalker5041]

You and Yvan have taught me to cut and polish and I cannot say how much I appreciate your help! I am a new business and still working on word of mouth. Therefore, since I have time jeweling allows the paint to really catch your eye and makes for satisfied customers! Thank you for the video!

[@Enthusiast_detailing]

That’d be perfect for car shows since every little thing matters

[@muaddba]

Would have been interested to see a gloss meter reading after the rotary stage and before the final jeweling stage.

[@MNpicker]

Gloss is a very good thing 👌

[@1stfrompuertorico568]

I don't have a gloss meter, but one visually with the experience knows when it comes to that candy look👍🏼💪

[@chrissemsch8781]

I’ve had great success using this combo

[@J1Z06]

I have sooo many compounds and polishes/pads… why not add these two to the arsenal?

[@jdisdetermined]

Jeweling is my absolute *favorite* thing to do as a detailer. It’s what I started with when first learning the rotary (from you B!) and I love the effortless, smooth, vibration free feeling of a dialed in rotary. I mostly do one steps now, so I tend to favor the DA for that. I can usually get a bit more cut and still finish down where I want to be better than I can with a rotary. But when I do get a multi step, I cannot wait to get the rotary out. I stay around the 1500 rpm range, basically no pressure, and have never once burned through or damaged anything with it, even when learning. I love how cool the pads stay compared to a long throw.

[@katiecannon8186]

I have a new car with just light Turtle Wax spray wax on it. I want to do a really good decontamination wash & VERY light polish. Is “jeweling” good enough? It’s a white car. If there’s swirl marks I can’t see them.

[@jdisdetermined]

@@katiecannon8186 Absolutely. You can use something as gentle as a cleaner wax and a very soft pad. Or something like Essence or Uno Pure if you’re doing a coating or heavy duty sealant.

[@katiecannon8186]

@@jdisdetermined Thank you so very much for responding! I haven’t decided yet what sealer I’m going to use. I live on a dirt lane so I’m constantly using Turtle Wax Slick Shine Quick Detailer and TW Minute Wax to get the light layer of dirt off. I like these two products a lot. But I also just bought P&S Waterless Wash. I haven’t decided how I like it yet. Anyway ….. Lol. Do you have any suggestions keeping in mind that I have to use something probably 3 or 4 days a week? I was thinking Turtle Wax Flex Wax or something along those lines. Do you have a favorite sealant? Also, since I’m using tons of TW Minute Wax, maybe that’s all I need? I know I need a deep wash & light polish. But after that? I don’t know. I just know I don’t want to go full ceramic coating.

[@katiecannon8186]

@@jdisdetermined Also, I see Dr. Beasley has a cleaner wax, that’s probably a good one? Or do you have one you’d suggest?

[@jdisdetermined]

@@katiecannon8186 No worries! The most important thing is you’re keeping it protected, what you use to do that is less important. The biggest benefit of stronger protections are their longevity. You don’t have to reapply as often. So you can use whatever you enjoy working with. But Flex Wax would be a significant upgrade from Minute Wax. It will give you months of durability between applications. My personal favorite sealant is from Brian’s line, Blue Collar 2. It’s a simple spray and wipe application and up to a year of durability. That’s what I’d recommend if you want to try the strongest tier of protection that isn’t a full blown coating. You’re pretty much ready to go after you’re done polishing. If you’re using a cleaner wax/all in one, you’re done, top it with a spray wax as needed. If you’re going with a stronger protection, use a primer(like CarPro Essence) or straight(Rupes Uno Pure)polish instead of a cleaner wax, and follow that with a panel prep and you’re good to apply. An easy cheap panel prep is about a 20% isopropyl alcohol solution. Or 1 part 91%IPA to about 3 parts water.. or buy something like CarPro Eraser. I haven’t tried the Dr. Beasley’s version personally as I mostly do full coatings. But when I do use a cleaner wax/aio I use Rupes Uno or 3D Speed. But Dr. Beasley’s make great products, I wouldn’t be afraid to try it. 👍

[@ShineYourLightDetailing]

Wow! Huge difference Brian! I use those products frequently and this validates everything I see in real world detailing whenever I’m outside in hot full sun. 👍🏼👍🏼

[@PeteyMcSavage]

U use papa it alot

[@paulmouradjian6045]

WowI such a high speed for the rotary. I thought jewelling on a rotary was at speed 1. This surprised me. Have I been mislead? As usually Stellar work. Bravo.

[@apexdetail85]

We all do things a bit different....I like the speed shown in the video.

[@Ichabod_Jericho]

That’s the type of polishing you can sell 100 times a year. Very rarely do I meet a customer that is both a great candidate for a 2-step while also having it in their budget. Not enough to build a business on. 1 step polishes are bread & butter🤘🤘

[@viperrcr]

Love watching all of these detailing videos. It's like online College for Detailing! Learning SO very much! Very therapeutic as well!

[@mikeyp2447]

Absolutely worth it.👍🏻

[@apexdetail85]

Absolutely

[@norcalspitshine6406]

Another nice tutorial.

[@ThisOldDetailingDude]

Brian this is why you are YODA! You are truly talented. Thank you 🙏 for sharing your expertise with us! I always learn SO much watching your channel! Just impressive results

[@tundrawhisperer4821]

He’s “Broda Master”! 😂👍🏻

[@apexdetail85]

No Yoda here....just another detailer and enthusiast....with enough years to have learned from my mistakes and pass it on to all of you.

[@bobhenn1692]

You've sold me on 3D One. Will that work as effectively as Papa Cut on my C5 Vettes? I do show them both at show and shines and NCRS flight judging events. Thanks for all the tips you share with us.

[@tundrawhisperer4821]

Yes Brian, I second this question. Thx

[@apexdetail85]

It should....but you can swap pads for a more aggressive one at anytime.

[@mnmn1665]

Excellent! And in full sun, too.

[@ionelbanu4451]

The shop must be full if you polish in the sun 😁. On a serious note, I've tried to polish in the sun, it's a nightmare. I've use Koch Chemie H9 and it was drying like crazy, so, no, I will not try this experience this again...

[@apexdetail85]

The shop is packed....but I do not mind. 🙂

[@J1Z06]

Excellent video. Per Your usual “SAFE” process, I’m guessing this removed minimal clearcoat to produce these awesome results? Thanks so much for sharing such awesome videos! You are THE BEST!!

[@kimnewling5728]

Pretty cool. Ill need to try that for a special occasion.

[@richardseem7948]

Fantastic results. Great choices 4 products.

[@apexdetail85]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@millerdetailing4176]

Great video and end results Brian definitely will be applying these steps.

[@chriskahlson]

Very well presented - thank you !

[@bigd9848]

Definitely worth the time and effort 👊🏼

[@richardseem7948]

Awesome video and content good friend

[@BetterThanNewDetailing]

Been watching you for a couple years now. Recently purchased 3 bottles of BC1 and a bottle of BC5 and I really like them. You’ve been recently been using Papa Cut so my question is is it better than 3D One or Sonax Perfect Finish? I also use Gold Standard from DIY Detail as well. Thank you for your contribution to we wannabe pro detailers😂

[@apexdetail85]

Just as good.....at a better buy.

[@GlacierDetail]

Great video ❤

[@M6transam]

Did you need to use the DA after the rotary?? The finish looked swirl free pretty much.

[@frankr2513]

I needed this video as Im going to be getting my classic car repainted, so it won't need a full on correction. But it is a show car and I've been researching jeweling. This video was fantastic. I did have one question...I had someone tell me that for this step, I wanted to do everything you just did with the DA except they said you want to run it at a low speed like 1 or 2 and go very slow. Only pressure should be the weight of the machine. I see here you had the speed up between 4-5 and went normal speed. Is there a pro or con to doing it one way to the other? Thanks for any insight Brian

[@Chris-wb7ni]

Small improvements add up.

[@sergiuangelo]

Hi Brian, it’s ok to use the Rupes rotary waffle pads on DA machines ?

[@apexdetail85]

Yes, absolutely

[@Tallnerdyguy]

Is IPA ok for prep between cutting and polishing? (I water it down to 20%)

[@apexdetail85]

Yes...but let the panel cool for a few moments first....the surface is heated and pores open during correction.

[@Tallnerdyguy]

@@apexdetail85 thanks!

[@asamasam8708]

What foam pad did you use

[@macallanvintage]

A genuine professional detailer with great experience and genuine skills would be using a Rotary Polisher for entire job via all sorts of pads…with sterling results. Unfortunately, it takes proper coaching or genuine self-cleverness, and lots of time to master a Rotary…which many jobless men could not afford. They need to quickly start a new business to earn money. Thats where the DA was popularized. And this group of newcomer detailers and YT detailers became stuck to the DA. Many “pros” are actually not comfortable in using a rotary (esp with the big wool pad) and these are the ones who’ll badmouth anything that they dont know how to use or anything they dont know how to do.

[@kellyblack4897]

Love the channel, but I'm seeing a bunch of no no's. Polishing in direct sunlight, sitting the buffer on the hood. I realize it's a trash hood but even so. Nice tips, but hopefully noobs know this is not best case. Heat when polishing is the enemy and direct sunlight almost guarantee it's going to show swirls in a couple of weeks.

[@flowinthrou]

Even though there are no swirls after polishing?

[@apexdetail85]

Please dont forget....some mobile detailers have no choice....as well as enthusiasts. Hopefully they have a tent or some type of shelter.

[@rongamble9884]

Ok people this stuff isn't rocket science everybody thinks there inventing the wheel I use meguiars products and buffing polishing pads I buy at harbor freight and I get beautiful results it's not in your products it's how well prepared and flat the surface is your buffing and polishing to get a mirror finish result

[@1stfrompuertorico568]

First!!!!

[@nachomandetailingservices1057]

Amazing ❤❤❤❤🫡 love it!! Just got papa cut V2 can’t wait to try it. I know the v1 I couldn’t finish down. So this right here is impressive Brian well done! 👍🏻
