In 1997 I had a contract valeting ex Strathclyde Council, Renault Masters, in white. Part of the deal was t-cutting the paint that had seen nothing but soap and water for years. Now I'm old I won't be doing that again but I do want to start an hobby/retirement business doing paint restoration. Things have moved on so much that I'm starting from the beginning again and your videos are excellent tutorials.

[@epicautomotivedetailing]

Thanks Rob. Happy to help. I try to focus more on the business strategies as I think they are area's that don't get much coverage

Which one though? 🤔

[@BlackDogCarCare]

You know what Dave, I think its proper refreshing that someone (you!) finally admits that not every "detail" needs to end up with a flawless finish! To me it's about managing customer expectations and delivering on your word. You nail this each time with how you describe the job, and I am so grateful you have the nuts enough to be honest about this aspect - sometimes clean and shiny is all the customer actually wants!

[@epicautomotivedetailing]

Exactly mate . Thanks for watching. I love the stuff you do by the way 👌🇬🇧

[@audieconrad8995]

I believe most clients wouldn't know a flawless finish if it bit 'em in the bum. Especially when most of them let their cars get to the condition they are in. Generally I believe most would feel ANY improvement would be flawless...lol! Truth.

Along with that they have a definitely great ceramic coating- Ayicon. Graphene coatings can be a bit finicky to put on, depends on temp/humidity as you can get alot of high spots.

[@cerealkiller4248]

Back in the early 90’s I had a red 88 205CTi, within a few months the paint started to oxidise and turn that ugly pink colour. Not knowing I bought a T Cut and tried to polish it out but no joy. A few months later it was booked in for an interior valet ( not really needed I was a bit anal about my cars back then ) and when I went to collect it later that day the guy commented on the paint. I explained the T Cut I’d tried and ultimately failed to rectify the damage. I’ve never forgotten what came next, he got some AutoGlym polish and poured a bit on the bonnet, picked up his polisher and made a circular motion about 2 foot in diameter. After 30 secs he stopped, got a rag and wiped away the excess polish to leave a hugely glossy patch on my bonnet. I was gobsmacked, immediately told him to do the whole car. It came back like a brand new car, inside and out. It had covered 37k miles by then but looked showroom standard. I remember going to look at a Vauxhall Calibre in it and the salesman was drooling over it asking me to sell it. You did an amazing job, this Corsa looks a great first car for someone who I bet was thrilled to receive it.

Yum discount code helps fund the channel as I make naff all from advertising and the channel cannot go forward without making commission off companies because I lose 2 days of money just on one video which would be lucky to make 10 quid.

Thanks very much 🙏

[@joshchivers6409]

Great video. I’m about to do my red car with the ultimate compound - any specific pad recommendations please?

[@fokanerantsieng4642]

Excellent job done. I have learned something today

[@epicautomotivedetailing]

Thank you

[@adamski4873]

Great vid once again mate,how about (if ya working at home this is or when convenient)a car gazebo?one that is quick and easy to put up if there is one that is,nothing is ever easy

[@epicautomotivedetailing]

I don't have space in my van and but when I get the new EpicMobile I will definitely be getting one. It's weird because I've kind of made do for 15 years without one and when it pisses down with rain I tend to go home and edit videos so it's probably a blessing or I would be cleaning all day. I need a good excuse 😂 Thanks for the kind words.

[@depfeffel6455]

Not a car detailer but gonna jump in here having worked with gazebos at various markets a fair bit over the years... don't get one! The only decent ones are super chunky aluminium leg jobbies, they are lethal in the wind. Imagine a big old chunk of aluminium smacking into a car door... Great vids btw man, I'm a noob detailer (home, not professional, just got some time over lockdown haha)

[@epicautomotivedetailing]

@@depfeffel6455 totally agree mate rockawnings are ones I'm looking at

[@pauliusu]

Hi. How long it last shining after polishing? Thanks

[@casenumber8799]

I want you to come to California and refinish my Miata 😀 Nice work

[@epicautomotivedetailing]

100%

[@finaltouchautodetailingllc]

Looking great man, good work!

[@epicautomotivedetailing]

Thank you so much. Appreciate the kind words 😊

[@mayanksoni8465]

Can we use silicone polish for tyres???

[@epicautomotivedetailing]

For the wheels it will improve alloys but not worth it as it won't last long

[@luntoinside]

What dressing did you use for the black trims?

[@epicautomotivedetailing]

Yum dress 👌

[@triggerhappyautos]

Outstanding stuff!

[@epicautomotivedetailing]

Thank you 🙏

[@chavezcustomdetailing9540]

What is your opinion on using all in one polishes. It works for me here in states and it brings in more business and revenue.

[@epicautomotivedetailing]

Love them. Their quick and easy. I still need to try rupes Uno next month and few other bits. I did have zaino which was very good but in darker colours it did leave smears in paint so had to get them out. Thanks for watching CCD

[@scousecriz1]

Any tips for starting on machine polishing? Want to try but all a bit daunting incase I ruin the Paintwork, what products do I use on the pads? What's the difference in the colours of the pads etc?? If anyone can pm me with info?

[@gwl78]

how much would it cost to do the whole car if you put in a detailers.

[@jbearmcdougall1646]

Hiya…. Did you buy a big pollytunnel… like a big see through tent..?

[@paulbrowne5049]

Nice job. How much would this service cost? I've an Alfa with faded red paint.

[@epicautomotivedetailing]

Honestly it varies but for me I seen this type of service go between £100-£300 pound for your average car cleaner

[@AutoCareHQ]

Great video, what a transformation! I reckon I'd pick GT Ceramic Sealant as my go-to for gloss. Just used in on my car recently and the finish was crazy good. I love Meguiar's Ultimate Compound though, it's the first compound I ever bought and I still go back to it.

[@epicautomotivedetailing]

Thank you yes GT produced amazing Results on my clients cars 👌

[@lesoo3]

hi did this to an old red renault kangoo recently with meguiars 3 in 1 looked good after but then i tried to polish it with turtle wax seal and shine had nothing but haze, tried a fast wax still the same its like the paint is absorbing the wax and won't buff off the more i tried the worse it got
