Need that clay mitt in my life. Another great video. I decided to pop on KZbin to cool down for a few minutes while cutting my grass, 45 min later I want to wash my car now instead.

[@superiordetailing9412]

Absolute Lord of Detailing! Thanks again Sandro.

[@Captain-Donut]

Hi mark, I really won’t worry about the length of you videos for your devoted viewers. You have a very methodical unquestionably different approach which is very addictive. Great work great vid. Love from the Uk Mark

[@rosscharlie5349]

Agreed . Longer the video the more I learn to be honest. Should say along with a good informative commentary I'll watch this kind of video all day . Very well edited too. Daz

[@DJ-vw6ov]

Long videos; not a problem for viewers like myself that are trying to learn the most without making costly mismatched products mistakes. Thank you for sharing your time, knowledge, and results.

[@peterhughes7996]

Stopped the video at around 11.00 minute into video to say awesome educational video Sandro a great video tool for people to learn the process properly. Well done

Awesome video for an aspiring driveway detailer! I love you Aussies and your passion for taking things to the next level. You're like the Singularity Computers of the car detailing world, lol! :) Thanks for the video, definitely earned a new subscriber.

Great video Sandro. Thanks for toning down the 70s music. :) Congrats on your expansion with detailing classes and new facilities and good to hear more upcoming videos on product testing with your personal thoughts.

[@hotpepper684]

Amazing video... you are so clear at explaining how to properly detail! I've made notes from other videos and your's is the most in depth one. I like your longer and in depth videos the most. Thank you and please keep it up! it's an absolute joy to watch :)

Great job

[@sherwoodvaluers2217]

Good stuff, I watched it all.

[@stephencarbonaro5462]

Great video Sandro! I managed to talk myself out of trying to achieve perfection on my daily driver. Once it gets nice out here in North East Pennsylvania, I'm going to get out there and hit my daily up with a one step polish just to get a few solid layers of protection on. I mainly use Poorboys polishes, but I find myself reaching for the m105 from time to time. Poorboys has a light swirl remover I'm going to team up with a white polishing pad, then hit it with their sealant. This video certainly inspired me. Thanks!

[@specsbundy1392]

Great video ... keep these long videos coming.. we detail funds love them !

[@DomX2008]

Great video, thoroughly enjoyed watching start to finish, keep up the excellent work! Was getting ideas for detailing my own S3 in Narvara Blue.

[@nickantuar1682]

Sandro! Another absolutely brilliant video mate, the commentary and video capturing was bang on. No need to apologise for any shakiness, it wasn’t really noticeable. Thanks for all the effort you put into the production, it’s always greatly appreciated. My S3 is ceramic coated but I’ve always wondered what would be recommended as the best drying method after snow and wash? Any info would be great. Cheers and keep up the great work.

[@LN2VIOLN2]

Great video as always 👌 I like you don’t go on the band wagon with you tool and product choice

[@kasparov9]

Thought I recognised those products from the Waxit Website!! And your there washing!! I've spent over $800 at Waxit in the last month on maybe 10 orders on car care products, you'd think they would have thrown in something for free :) this is very addictive!!

Man that was great, lots of info... Like a a mirror, nice...

[@jonassequera7056]

Really awesome content! Didn't feel like its a 40+ min video :) very educational and entertaining. just wondering sandro. what are the difference between the EVO and PRO?

[@jamiec9866]

Hey Sandro, interesting to see your methods in a real life customers car scenario. The finish as always looked fantastic 👍 I'm really interested in clay Mitt's as they seem to dramatically cut down the time it takes to clay a vehicle. I think a lot of weekend detailer's are starting to go towards the mitt's due to this. Are there any to stay away from? I'm interested in buying the G3 Professional Body Prep Clay Mitt by Farecla as it's widely available in England at a fair price & has good reviews. Perhaps comparing clay mitt's in a video is a good idea? I can't seem to find one.

[@MrMully48]

Hi Sandro, If you were doing a enhancement detail whereby no compounding was needed, just a finish polish to give a bit of gloss and clarity on the paintwork, what pad and polish would you choose. Thanks Rob

[@icurt06]

Wow!!!

[@thetraindriver01]

A great effort Sandro mate 👍👍👍 any chance of doing a vid on semi permanent coatings for interior trims, etc. Everyone does external long lasting stuff, but very little for anything other than a quick dressing for the interior which you spend most of your time looking whilst using the car... 😜 cheers mate

[@thetraindriver01]

Car Craft Auto Detailing ok great stuff, hope the new place works out well for you mate 👍👍👍

[@yowiesan]

Great video Sandro, so informative. Can I ask if Nova DC or EVO can be layered as well?

[@1b0b]

Hi great video as always Take a look at JESCAR CORRECTING COMPOUND its made by Menzerna but to jescars own formula It has no fillers, silicones or waxes in it I find it leaves less hazing than the last cut compound and its cheaper so it will make your second step much easier Would really like to get your thoughts on it to see if you come up with the same conclusions Keep the great videos coming

[@MrMully48]

Hi Sandro, what speeds are you running at with the compounds and polishes. Thanks Rob UK

[@fastmonaro05]

Again another in depth well presented video covering EVERY base and aspect!!!!Was 2am until I went to sleep watching this 40min mini movie!!!!!. Steven Spielberg will be knocking on your door to use you in his next Jurassic Park epic!!!I am still laughing about the Mazda6 Wheel comment of what happens when you DON'T clean your wheels for ten years!!!!! MMMMMM yep. Just some questions mate. On finishing after compounding you used S30 to finalise the finish. WOW great results! I have some Car Pro Essence plus Menzerna 2400 and 3500 on hand. I also have LC CSS Yellow cut, Black finish & Gold jewel foam pads too.Which one would I use after say a compound like TLC, Precision to duplicate S30 and your results???? I will get a couple HDO blue pads next order as well. And just on your ceramic NOVA PRO how does this compare to CQUARTZ UK(I have some I bought), Gyeon Mohs, Kamikaze and other high end coatings???? NOVA really looks impressive and they also have a ERO version as well. Man its a mine field to work out which one to buy or use as they all seem brilliant but NOVA PRO if I could buy it looks really good on the Audi and half a Mazda6!!!!!!! LOL. Cheers mate.

[@davenewton1570]

Very informative what machine & what speed are you using very impressive results

[@slappy915]

which actual pressure washer are you using? You linked to Kranzle but curious on which model?

[@jtschump]

I want that Vikan arch brushes. Can't seem to find it here in the states. :(

[@clips0292]

Sandro, quick question, after you get done with the finishing polish can I put car pro essence polish then quartzUK? Or would you put UK on right after this instead of using essence?

[@nickantuar1682]

Sandro, the Nova Pro you're using in the video, is that available via the Waxit website or is this version for a certified dealer only?

[@nickantuar1682]

Car Craft Auto Detailing Thanks for the reply. What’s the major difference between the two? Durability/clarity/gloss?

[@a.k1311]

Yes i Saw clearly its a Kränzle !! The Manual says if case of using lay the vessel flat, not to stand up! IT may cause damage , Sandro mate

[@greentom]

Yeah, Krätzle says it's for the lubrication of the drivetrain.

[@mikekniess9937]

Great video Sandro wish you the best on your new shop that's great. You do a video on prosse o f what to do. Get certifications to use proceramic coding

[@brynholmes7807]

Hi, Do you dilute the poorboys apc used in the wheel wells before application? Thanks

[@raphaelkara5585]

Awesome. Did you use the blue hdo pads in 5.5" on the 5" shine mate backing plate?

[@Bllaney]

Where is the new videos mate i cant wait

[@AadilHussain-kd3db]

What dilution do you use products when doing maintenance and when doing a detail after some time

[@brianowens2943]

Would you ever try the new rupes course blue compound like I don't think we get precision in Ireland

[@gotrixiego1446]

Does the EVO coating have a website? Thanks.

[@maxbravo9685]

What was ur pad, compound, polish. Of choice for this paint.

[@marcb1164]

Sandro, outstanding video as usual. Any verdict on the clay mitt and the decontamination procedure shown here? It looked like a very good, time saving procedure.

[@chrissmith8010]

When you're using Purge and the mitt, you rinse it out in a bucket. Is that just plain water? The water in the bucket along with the body work looks soapy?

[@chrissmith8010]

Car Craft Auto Detailing so you just use the snow plus in the bucket to wash off the mitt? You dont use it as additional lube? Also, can you hint when this prototype will become available and roughly how many cars itll "last"? Cheers

[@saneman8147]

The cars practically new!

[@ninonico9927]

Great video. What about ex605 compare rupes lhr21 or 15 ?

[@kasparov9]

Mazda 3 Paint, So Precision will work better with a Yellow Foam Shine Mate, then the Last Cut?

[@New777Wine]

Sandro, do you generally find original Audi paint to be the same across the board? I have a 2014 Audi RS and wanted to ask if I followed your prescription on this S3 of the last cut compound and S30 for refining the finish it would be a solid place to start? thanks

[@New777Wine]

@@CarCraftAutoDetailing Great, thank you

[@kasparov9]

Sandro, the Hazing left over from First Stage Passes, is it better to deal with it with a 2nd stage pass with the compound again, or to use a Polish instead?

[@kasparov9]

Thanks mate, sorry to be annoying, as mentioned before have 3 Shine Mate yellow pads with 2 flat and I diamond and both precision and Last Cut, am I risking too much aggression going over the Swirls, holograms and water sports on a Mazda Paint? Would you wait a few weeks and maybe get the blue shine mate pads first? thanks Max

[@VeeDub2000]

Is this color Panther Black? It looks like it has a hint of purple in it.

[@brandonmills2033]

Thanks again for your previous help I took your advice and watch your in depth detail and I now feel much more confident. I was wondering if you still reccommed an IPA wipedown in my case, I'm using CarPro Essence as an AIO for swirl removal, then following with Cquartz UK for protection. Thanks, Brandon

[@brandonmills2033]

Car Craft Auto Detailing ok, great tip. So to just to be clear... If I polish with essence I should wait 4 hours to apply CQUK if excluding an IPA wipedown? And if I apply the next day, then you reccommed one regardless to remove the light dust that accumulates? Thanks again! Brandon

[@brandonmills2033]

Car Craft Auto Detailing Ok, well I read on CarPros forum that they said it's ok to apply CQUK directly after machine polishing with essence in the same order that you polished the car. Basically, you do not reccommed this? Instead wait minimum 4 hrs? Can you perform an IPA wipedown of Essence before the 4 hour period, or are you saying it's advised to let it cure 4 hrs REGARDLESS if I chose doing an IPA wipedown? Thanks, I just want to clarify as I'm still very new to this. Regards, Brandon

[@c6z061]

S30+ and S40 are some of the best finishing polishes on the market. Does the Shinemate EX605 have about the same power as the Rupes Duetto?

[@c6z061]

Car Craft Auto Detailing Thanks. Do you use the shine mate red pads for finishing soft and hard paint?

[@c6z061]

They look like they glide so smooth over the paint.

[@normanmendonca2834]

If ever you need a test subject,just contact me. I have a vy commodore that is a daily driver. My paintwork is course to touch,dull and in desperate need of full paint correction. It's white so it will be more forgiving iam told. I love your work.

[@jimmyjazz4605]

Hey Sandro, sorry, another question that I thought of when watching this video. Have you ever used Carpro's Iron X as a chemical decon product and also a lube for a clay bar/rubber? If so, how did it go? Cheers.

[@CarCraftAutoDetailing]

Yes I’ve tried it on some test panels in the past and I don’t feel it has the right lubrication and consistency for claying

[@jimmyjazz4605]

@@CarCraftAutoDetailing Thank you, sir!

[@cybertroy2]

Hi. I am shopping for a cheap/small air compressor for blowing off dirty pad between polishing like you do, but not sure which to choose at bunnings. they have a (1100w 1.5HP) for $79, and a (120psi 180w 240v) for $99. they call these inflators i guess same as air compressor? Would this be good enough to do the job of cleaning/blowing the pads effectively? i already have some unused pad brushes. is air compressor worth the purchase? cheers.

[@cybertroy2]

thanks for the reply :))

[@7071t6]

I am wondering why when your doing the wheels you dont have the product liquid in a pump bottle, so much easier on the wrist, trust me its ok now while your young, but as you get older you will have problems later, so anything that makes your detailing experience faster and easier and getting the same results why not and especially if its going to help with you wrist work, lol :)
