Always a delight to watch and learn something new every video Phil.

[@MirandaDetailing]

Thanks man!

[@iwayned]

a nice job Phil .& Miranda (let her talk too Phil) . :)

[@moneyparhar]

Bought 2023 hyundai santa fe last week. Did APC rinse, carpro reset shampoo,iron decon. Griots ceramic wash and coat. Used carpro DELUX to coat wiper cowl, headlights,lower plastic trim, front grill, rear taillights, windshield, rear wiper arm and glass. I didn't wipe off coating from textured plastic. Let it soak.

Hi Phil. Derrick from vt here . Yup , quality control from the factory has gone out the window since covid . The worst part is that in many dealerships the detailers are pretty new so it puts them in scenarios that they really shouldn't be doing. I'm all in one the gyeon evo line. Love all there products. No issues whatsoever. Easy to work with, outdoor friendly and super high gloss . Keep up the great work . Take care .

[@waynefromnewfoundland8740]

Hey guys! Always enjoy the full detail videos. What I especially like is how you mix up the different brands of products that are used. I like to know what’s out there, and this is how I pick up on them. I use CarPro’s Descale for a decontamination wash and in this video you used a Koch Chemie product. Always nice to have an alternative. Till the next one.👍🏻😎(As a P.S. I watched Jess use her iBrid, man I really want one but just can’t justify the cost. Oh well, maybe if I win the lottery😂)

[@neilwalker5041]

Awesome work on those nasty etchings and the wait time on the Gyeon coating was really impressive. I could not help but notice the lake country pad washer. In the past you said you were not a big fan of the pad washer and I would buy the washer if your selling it. Thank you for the video.

[@MirandaDetailing]

Thanks. Yeah I actually do like this pad washer. when my pads pile up its easier to clean them with that. if its just a few though i still wash them in the sink.

[@YK-ce3dk]

Hey Phil so if I use panel prep after nsp's will that take away the residue? Or does that defeat the purpose of using nsp? Thanks! Another good video!

[@MirandaDetailing]

Hi. It will pretty much defeat the purpose. Even a damp towel with just water will remove the residue without compromising the primer.

Hello Phil. I have a SPTA cordless polisher and one of the batteries doesn't seem to want to charge anymore. Can you direct me to were I could buy a couple more 12v rechargeable batteries for it.

[@omargonzalez-uw5ow]

What are you soaking the Kirkland towels and applicator in after use? Do you launder them as normal after soaking? Does that salvage the towels or are they demoted to less intricate work? Keep spreading that knowledge, your content is excellent.

[@MirandaDetailing]

Hi. Yes I soak the towels with dawn or a few oz of APC. Then I wash them and check them for softness. Sometimes they crunch up. But often they are fine to use on regular details that we don’t polish.

[@omargonzalez-uw5ow]

@@MirandaDetailing You have inspired me to apply a ceramic coating on my vehicle. I ordered the Technicians Choice coating because it looks easy to use.

[@orthodox1717]

Excellent job! One thing about the new Gyeon Coatings, at least MOHS Evo, it does not harden like other ceranic coatings. Still a great coating, but dont excpect and marring resistance.

[@MirandaDetailing]

I thanks! Really? I have found the new EVO line actually hardens my towels and applicator even if i soak them in water and apc! They are now harder and better than before! But honestly I never advertise ay coating, even the Gtechniq Ultra and Gyeon Infiniti coatings as being resistant to marring or scratch resistant or anything. I just don't want my customers getting the wrong idea.

[@orthodox1717]

@@MirandaDetailing wow, interesting! I saw a video of a trusted detailer who showed his mini suede applicator cloth not hardening after application of MOHS Evo. 🤷🏻‍♂️ I think that’s very smart you do not advertise coating as any type of scratch resistance. I was referring to possible wash/drying induced marring. :)

[@MirandaDetailing]

Yeah Next time use the coatings I'll save the applicators and towels and show them. Thanks for sharing man!

[@luiscaldeira7458]

Great video , one question i had a vehicle that had a coat and is near end of shelf life just just minor marring and one area with light swirl, i was wondering if i can just wash decon and use something like gyeon primer and coat it , the primer would be able to correct the micromarring ? Because is really really light . Also if o have coat on trim can i just do the same procedure and reaply no need to fully remove the coat? Best regards

[@MirandaDetailing]

Hi. Great questions. Yeah you could totally use a primer polish like that and re coat it. Even Dr Beaselys NSP polishes wold be even better. for the trim usually just an IPA wipe and re coat is all that needed.

[@luiscaldeira7458]

@@MirandaDetailing thanks for the reply , i dont really feel contamination with bare hand i was thinking in do a iron and tar decon and then primer and coat with one evo would that be a nice process? Best regards

[@stevefulton5884]

Hey Phil. Great video, great content. I was just wondering if you throw away your towels that you remove coating with? Or is that what you were soaking in that bucket at the end and if so do you have any cleaners in that bucket?

[@MirandaDetailing]

I don’t throw the towels out. I soak and wash them and if they are soft I reuse them on other details on the paint. But if they are crunchy I throw them out. But if you soak them with an APC or dawn soap then wash them they usually remain soft.

[@MirandaDetailing]

Hi. How did you apply it? I found that just a few mists close into the towel and applying it fast and evenly in each panel is the best method. I used to apply it like a traditional coating and it was terrible!

It's such a bummer when I have to show a customer those type of defects in the clear on a new, or relatively new car, and tell them it's beyond reasonable detailing options.
