As a DIT detailer this encourages me to try this as appose to the machine approach that I am not comfortable using with all the pads you need to know and understand how they work. This just might be the thing for me starting out just need to put the time in and thats not an issue well worth it if I can get the same results as you did. Thanks for this. Ottawa Ontario Canada.

Excellent video and thank you for the warning that the Ultimate Polish literally dries in 15-20 seconds or so in the shade! I did find that applying slightly more UP helped to dissolve any dried UP and wipe away. I wish they could extend UP a bit to make it easier to work with by hand.

Thanks this hand polishishing was what I was looking for to properly do my sailboat. I’ve polished many times - but never properly. I had new striped added to my 42 ft boat and the polisher nicked them a few times. I know I am in for a workout - it's better than going to the gym Your instructions were excellent

Great video to boost the confidence of a beginner who has no access to a machine. Thanks. Lots of useful tips. I'm summoning up courage to tackle de-scruffy-fying my Defender (I think 'detailing' would be optimistic, but I'd like it to look less scruffy!) One beginner's question -- how often do you change the cloths you use for removing the product? And how do you know it's time to change?

By hand also preserves the paint. It is labor intensive if done correctly. Machine polishing should be done a few years apart. Otherwise, if you regularly use high speed polishing, you'll thin out the paint. Recently, I noticed this trend of "paint correction". Unnecessary unless you have neglected car.

Awesome video! I hand polish and added a sealant to my 1996 Peugeot 106 1.1L. It was very hard on the arm, especially because I had to prior wash it (initiating by the rims), hand wash, and clay the entire car prior to the polish and sealant. But it was really worth it. The car is old, not worth much, but it is my daily driver. Thus, it was not worth spending the money for a professional polish, or even to buy a polish machine to be used once a year. So, I take matter into my own hands. As it was an old car, in a white colour, the benefits were noticeable! Especially because the swirls are not that visible in the white colour, and also I think because there were a lot of contamination in that paint that were removed by claying and polishing. It put a smile on my face, and even my girlfriend was amazed with the end result - but not a fan of the receipt for all the products I have used. Now, I am thinking on doing the same to my 2011 Renault Megane Grandtour 1.5 dCi. It is not a very valuable car, but it is my girlfriend's daily driver, and the family car - to go to weeding, family dinners, and so on. I hand it over to a professional upon buying it. But, since then, I built some knowledge, and want to do it myself. On my Peugeot I used the NextZett No. 3 (Polish) and NextZett No. 4 (Sealant). On my Megane I am not sure if I am going to keep with the NextZett, or change to Meguire's. Nevertheless, this video gave me the confidence I needed! Cheers mate!

Nice video . W⚓ LoL 😂 Hey, I am always interest in what type of towels you experts 💦 use and would like to hear something like, "blah blah blah the wax using a plush 310 GSM or low pile duel side etc. It's hard to see on the video and I always buy the wrong cloth for the job 😂 Also with the application microfibre, could you use a white terry version as I note over the Counter they can come in s 3 pack. Microfibres/Terry/Foam. 👍🏼🇦🇺

Hello my towels i use are from a company called autosmart in the UK. These days you can tell which ones will let you down.I know costco do yelow cloths that are sold globally which i used to use on polishing. I see what you mean yes ill make a note to mention different cloth piles etc thanks for helping me get the right information out. Yes any type of microfibre pad works well for this . Ive used many and the foam yellow pads are good and cheap

The first time I used the polish was on a car that was a little older and I did not clay bar or compound. I applied the polish to a large area and it dried and I didn't think I was ever going to get it off. I came here to watch the compound but I am doing all of the steps in your video. Thank you for making this video.

Hi!! Loved your video. I have seen you working with turtle wax one and done compound and meguair’s ultimate compound. Which would you recommend for a guy doing it by hand instead of a machine? Also, can i just skip the polishing and jump to ceramic coating part for a new car? Cheers!!

I agree, small steps for us non professionals. I touched up, wet sanded, compounded (using the product you show cased) clay barred and polished (again using the product you show cased). Followed by Meguires Canuba wax. Amazing results
