I really enjoyed watching you detail that beautiful blue Audi. Thank you,

[@smoothimagedetailing7072]

Sweet work man! That blue is beautiful now!! Better than new. 👍

[@HarpersCarDetailing]

Cheers dude 👍🏼 Amazing colour isn’t it! Really pops in the sun!

[@michaelstevens7533]

Done a grand job. The colour really pops out at you now

Thanks Michael. Lovely isn’t it! The metallic paint pop is 👌🏼

A truly amazing result Nick. So impressive particularly on such a young car. The best looking SQ5 on the road :-)

[@HarpersCarDetailing]

Thanks Andrew 👍🏼 very kind of you! It a stunning colour to work on. It really pops in the sun!

Great video and inspiration for me to make more video like this.. 😁😁😁

Great job and very nice vehicle! Great correction and protection!!!

[@JUAN75001]

Thank you! The client and I were very pleased with it. It wasn’t 100% perfect, but perfect for a daily driven car 👍🏼

[@hassanmahmood5823]

I’m glad to see you have tried the garage therapy snow foam I commented a few videos back asking if you could try it

@@HarpersCarDetailing GT snowfoam still aint as good as BH auto foam gt products are good nothing special but the detailing industry are all like sheep once a popular youtuber or 2 mentions they like a brand the rest follow suit and overhype the products

[@HarpersCarDetailing]

I disagree. I think their foam is better and more economical that Bilts. Which other KZbin detailer uses it? I’ve gone of the recommendation from a few subscribers, not another detailer

[@vanessamoono4779]

Great video as always.

[@mehmetdemir5655]

You are amazing sir

[@HarpersCarDetailing]

You’re very kind 👍🏼

[@CaptainSlowr]

Very nice result on a very nice car. Lovely colour! Unrelated question but i am looking for something to dislodge dirt from interior carpets and also dry the nooks and crannies on my car. Between a car blow dryer or an air compressor which would be the better option?

[@HarpersCarDetailing]

Thanks Kaya 👍🏼 Have you tried a drill brush attachment? Compressed air would be a lot better for interior duties as the dryer wouldn’t have enough power 👍🏼

[@greymark420]

Nice Nick, call looks beautiful.

[@dipeshpankhania]

Wow, s20 finish is brilliant with just two passes! Is that right?

[@HarpersCarDetailing]

It’s an amazing product! Especially on German paint

[@bgsvaleting]

Always learning from you mate👍 as a beginner to machine polishing what one would you recommend to buy, I don’t have a budget!

[@HarpersCarDetailing]

Thanks 👍🏼 I would probably go with a Shinemate ex620 5 inch. Or a vertool forced rotation machine polisher. The first one is a DA so oscillates and spins freely, whereas the Vertool oscillates but spins mechanically so won’t stop (similar to a rotary). 👍🏼

[@tonyjoe5707]

Nice vid with good attention to detail (no pun intended) Do you let the coating cure or is it OK to go almost straight away?

[@HarpersCarDetailing]

Thanks Tony 👊🏼 Yes, it only requires 6 hours, but the better the longer really. It can be sped up with infrared lights at 60 degrees for 10 minutes though 👍🏼

[@christopherburden756]

Fab job! Really like the finish on the Infinity Wax tyre dressing. How long approximately does it last?

[@HarpersCarDetailing]

Thanks Christopher 👍🏼 I’m not to sure in all honesty as I’ve just started using it. It bonds to the rubber more instead of just sitting on top, so I have high hopes 👍🏼

[@jorgeaceves2068]

Hi nick’s so this car was good paint only you changed to perfect condition good job nick again so,which polish did you use in this job I have a red car clear coat I want to remove some swirls thank you

[@HarpersCarDetailing]

It wasn’t horrendous, but it wasn’t how a new car should look 👍🏼 This was Scholl S20 black. 👍🏼

[@jorgeaceves2068]

Yes nick’s very good job and thanks for your answer🚗

[@OrangeismyNewGreen]

How long does the ceramic coating last? Great work, you attention to detail is impressive 👍🏻🙂🙋🏼‍♂️

[@HarpersCarDetailing]

This particular one is 2-3 years providing that it’s maintained correctly 👍🏼 Thanks 👍🏼

[@matiaspino881]

Do you use the same brushes to use alkaline and neutral products? for exterior

[@HarpersCarDetailing]

I certainly do, and for acid as well

[@markhudson5449]

Wow! Fantastic job Nick. How long did the full process take?

[@asmrautodetailing-netautod9033]

This kind of treatment usually take a full day of detailing and even sometimes 2days ! The polish stage is very time consuming. Hope that helps !

[@HarpersCarDetailing]

This was about a day and a half. I’ve cleaned the car before which helped speed up the process as I decontaminated it then as well 👍🏼

[@markhudson5449]

Cheers!

Here we go again. I go from editing videos to binge watching.

[@HarpersCarDetailing]

[@deanbennett5343]

How does the Gt snow foam compare to bilt hamber?

[@CL4SSiCS]

Gt is probably better, has good clean power

[@HarpersCarDetailing]

Really good! More economical and in my opinion cleans slightly better.

[@WeAreMemories]

Have you got the GT Snowfoam on test?

[@HarpersCarDetailing]

I bought 5 litres of it…it’s probably my go to now, it’s brilliant!

[@MikesAutoDetailing]

Great job

[@dondiablo5583]

Hey, question. Why they say that microfiber towels make little micro scratches? Why everyone not use a Chamois for sample??

[@HarpersCarDetailing]

Who says microfibre scratches? Chamois tends to be stiff and also flat, so doesn’t absorb anything thanks potentially left behind on the surface so picks it up and scratches the paint

[@dondiablo5583]

@@HarpersCarDetailing yes thats what I thought to indeed but I've seen some tests where someone tests several microfibre cloths on a freshly polished hood, testing with a little more pressure on the cloth and a little less pressure. Yes, it is true that a chamois absorbs less water, but you can always squeeze it, for example

[@jeffreyrobert9460]

Harper- what does 5% kKD Citrus Magic mean?

[@CL4SSiCS]

Im pretty sure it means 5% of the product in the bottle diluted woth water

[@HarpersCarDetailing]

5% product 95% water or 1:19

[@Dynafleet123]

Is that save for wax?

[@jferreira339]

Good job, although I'm not fan at polishing new cars...

[@HarpersCarDetailing]

Thanks! Why’s that, as the new car needed polishing as it was covered in marks

[@jferreira339]

@@HarpersCarDetailing - Hi! The criticism is not for you who did an excellent job, but rather on the concept of polishing a new car; it may be a precious of mine, but polishing removes protection (paint), if every time we see marks and go to polish, any day we have steel mirroring ! Car producers should be able to deliver a car without these defects (especially in premium segment)

@@Pabla98 It's only because some German manufacturers often ask they're customers to pay more in options, for a car that is already expensive which a lot of other brands will have as standard.
