I love what y’all do. But having Emily test those products out when she’s never done it before shows us that it’s real easy to learn and y’all don’t just make it look easy lol. More of these videos please!

[@ChemicalGuys]

Yes, anyone can use Chemical Guys products!

[@daikolirae155]

Thats a weird use of “but”

[@xxTHExxABYSSxx]

anyone can use most tools easily, but to be a professional and artist takes time, knowledge, and skill

[@HC-DetailingPhotography]

I absolutely love seeing people learn new things regardless of what their passion is, Keep up the great work Emily, you'll be a PRO in no time :)

[@ChemicalGuys]

Thanks for the amazing feedback!

[@HC-DetailingPhotography]

@@ChemicalGuys you're welcome!!

[@barrymccaulkiner7092]

Washed and dried a brand new car that i used a really old synthetic shammy on. Parts of the old shammy went bad and turned hard and put some scratches in the paint. Recently bought your kit for these 2 bottles and polisher. I've added the conditioning sprayer. Saw in another video recommending to start with a lighter compound first to see how well the finish gets. If not satisfied then to move to a more aggressive compound. I've started with the P4 and white pad and it didn't do much if at all. I will use the C4 with the orange pad next to see if that will clear up/correct the clear coat. Thanks for the video tutorial

[@rickybellamy8191]

Thank you for listing your pads and which compound to use with them. So many ppl fail that simple step and were left not knowing what to buy.

[@ChemicalGuys]

Thanks for the amazing feedback!

[@seekingthetruth304]

I wish you guys would show the finished paint outside in the sunlight, or at least whatever natural light is there. Great videos you produce!👍👍👍

[@ChemicalGuys]

Great suggestion!

[@TRK-up2zw]

My only observations: great confidence building video for beginners and, unrelated to anything, maybe mix up the music more. Yes, more Emily, she can be the "newbie" specialist for every product from now on.

[@MotoPLX]

Nice instructional video, seems easy to use with great results. I ordered one!

[@ChemicalGuys]

Glad it was helpful!

[@samueljenkins4666]

Very informative video. This makes me want to buy your products and polish my car, I did not know it was that easy 🤣

[@ChemicalGuys]

[@thorjcl]

Hey, that was a great video, I always was afraid of doing the pullish thing but with this video and Emily, I have no reason to be afraid any more, just do it! appreciate!

[@92TampaChick813]

Beautiful people doing a beautiful job 😊

[@vincentgriffey9970]

Glad I found this video. I'm getting a brand new car built at the factory and delivered to me, I'm retired and will have the time to tackle this as a DIY project. My plan is to apply Carbon Force as my Ceramic Coating and I understand the need to apply the Clay Bar process. Is it necessary to apply the correction compound AND the perfection polish or since the car is brand new, can the correction compound be skipped. Thanks is advance

[@allanmartinez0831]

Looking majestic while polishing 🦁

[@matthewbattershell6352]

looking forward to trying out these .... may be difficult to see the change on a silver car ... but gotta clay bar first ....

[@Habits1986]

Bought my new car a week ago and a cat decided to dance on the front hood. Bumped into this video while looking for a resolution. Liked it , cause it gives me courage to try that out on my own. Do I need to polish the whole hood or only the scratched area is enough, having in mind that it’s a new car with fresh paint?

[@Itstdub_]

Definitely adopting this after I get a new car. Thank you for this 🙏🏾 #Emilys#1fan

[@ChemicalGuys]

Your new car will thank you!

[@404notfound.....]

Excellent job! Just keep the polisher on the hood until it stops rotation. It prolongs the life of the machine.

[@ChemicalGuys]

Great feedback!

[@drownword]

so i got a TorqX for christmas with a red and yellow back plate. When would I use the red vs. the yellow? I have a challenger that needs some paint correction. Thanks!

[@Nico-117-q7t]

Good job

[@druodil3428]

I have a 2002 Porsche Boxter. It sat in a garage for years with the door opened. The front is shiny but the back is dull. I flayed barred it and polished the entire car. It looks better but you can still see the difference. What should I do to make the back shiny like the front?

[@tonyscott8126]

I just got the torq x and sample pack of foam pads and product. I have a 97 1 ton dually with original paint that has cracks, can I use the C4 or does it need a paint job to make it look better?

[@bowhuntermatt24]

Can you use the 38 after the p4?

[@c.patricksadowski9959]

Could you talk a bit about “stalling” and why it’s not a good thing?

[@michaeld.3779]

Will the Torx smooth fresh paint orange peel? And, if so, do you have a product to do so?

[@alexisgarcia7689]

You’ll need a orbital / wool buffer

[@jaspalvirdee]

Pro-tip: You may want to tie up your hair if its longer as well preventing it from getting tangled into the machine. Buddy of mine had to chop off his hair cause of this. Be safe!

[@Oneminuteguitarkenji]

Now it will be mandatory when I polish with my c4 and p4 tomorrow for this song to play in the background

[@jalani2505]

It’s possible to get good enough results by only using P4 ?

[@ChemicalGuys]

Hi! P4 can be used as a one-step paint correction for light swirl marks and scratches.

[@jalani2505]

Can we also polish the glass with these ?

[@danyelle1119]

Can you recommend interior wipe to repel dust to keep your screen clean?

[@scottc.6847]

Question, does this compound and polish replace the V series?

[@eDWArD2453]

When I blotch it out on the area with v32 and polish it with v38 after. The 5 dots from v32 leave a weird looking spot there even after polishing. Any reason for this? Or how to remove those initial blotches off the paint?

[@JCA-r2s]

Is it ok to wax your vehicle after the polishing process? or would waxing even be necessary after polishing?

[@EC-uo4iv]

you should wax, to add a paint protectant/sealent, plus wax adds more gloss

[@sandyshine6690]

Name of the song Please 👍👍👍

[@miguelgarzaluna833]

Will this eliminate the ceramic coating?

[@justinlawrence6790]

Yes. Any time you polish you will wear through coatings and have to recoat.

[@ChemicalGuys]

Yes, polishing your car will remove coatings from the paint.

[@ramonsolis3967]

Is compound better than polish to try and take off ceramic coating? Or what is the best solution

Hello! Yes, compound will effectively remove ceramic quicker than polish.

Do I have to clay bar wax the car or can I skip?

Hey! Yes, it is necessary to clay bar the vehicle before any paint correction.

[@matthew7972]

@ what product do I use for clay bar and how do I do it?

[@drey4652]

Guys what do you recommend after doing the cutting and polishing? Should i clean it using shampoo again? Degreaser? Before applying ceramic coating..

Check out their product called wipeout

[@allee68]

i have a question. Im looking at a dual speed polisher. is that ok for this. it is not a six speed?

[@albertoramirez7645]

How much pressure do you need to add to the dual action polisher while polsihing.?

[@ChemicalGuys]

Hey! Use slight pressure, the weight of your hand plus a little more but be sure that the pad is constantly spinning.

[@patmcmahon2121]

After you polish do you need to wax?

[@rustybros]

After polish you need ceramic.

[@ChemicalGuys]

🤩

[@MarcoBoano]

Can’t you just skip c4 and go straight to p4 if you get better results ??

[@ChemicalGuys]

Hey! P4 can be used a standalone paint correction for light swirl marks and scratches. For deeper imperfections use the combination of C4 and P4.

[@Fergie__263]

Great video, Emily lost me when she didn’t know the two step song reference though 😅.

[@ChemicalGuys]

😁

[@itslbtv]

What about a hand polish if I don’t have all the equipment

[@ChemicalGuys]

Hey! For best results, we recommend using a polisher but you can still polish out paint using a hand pad. Check out the link down below. www.chemicalguys.com/products/hex-logic-orange-cutting-hand-pad?_pos=1&_sid=927790cde&_ss=r

[@petreticu6008]

If you want to stay 3 days in your bed after, go for it! For 2 3 scratches, you can do that, but for the whole car, I would never.

Will this process get rid of watermarks?

[@Zero_System81]

Yes

[@misplacedcaper9662]

Bought the torqX last year. It stalls out even if you look at it too hard, let alone put any pressure on it. Even the weight of the machine slows it down too much and makes it tiring to use, as I have to lift up on it the entire time. I regret selling my 7" dewalt rotary.
