GT4RS The World's MOST EXPENSIVE DETAIL!?!?

[@simplyeric12]

Your attention to detail is what led me to keep my OCD for keeping my car clean. Sadly my wife thinks I am crazy but I always have a smile when I have the cleanest car 24/7 365 days in the whole district. Thank you!

[@STATUSDETAIL]

Lots of people think we are crazy! But lots of us understand our crazy as completely normal! Those people watch and comment on these videos. Welcome home to normal 🙂👍

[@sflspotter6638]

I used to carry detail towels and extra bottles of water in case of an emergency. And me and my buddies would be driving and if we saw i puddle we stopped and turned around and went a different direction. Now we’re talking about the late 80’s and early 90’s but still. So yeah OCD in full affect 😮.

[@STATUSDETAIL]

@@sflspotter6638 gotta keep that car clean! If I see fresh oil or tar signs I turn around. Gotta find another way. Don't care if it adds an hour to a 10 minute trip lol

[@simplyeric12]

@@STATUSDETAIL Quick question Status Detailer: If you see tar being built up but don't need a full car wash initself, should you just wait for the next car wash to remove some of the tar? Or can you use tar remover straight onto the car and remove it w/ a microfiber towel?

[@STATUSDETAIL]

@@simplyeric12 if the tar is fresh and not really bad then I'd shttar remover on it and let it dwell then pressure wash off. It should be a touchless process. If it's thick big pieces then it's more difficult and you may need to wctutget in and start touching things. In general try and remove sooner than later and don't skip steps. So do the wash if you can. Or wash the bad spots then full wash when you have time I hope that made sense

[@lichh64]

As a person who has very high attention to detail, I respect the time and effort you guys put in this car.

[@STATUSDETAIL]

Thanks! And thanks for watching 🙂

[@gregorderencin]

High attention to 12k.

[@markmusgrave5091]

As a Psychotherapist and a small business owner, the thing that struck me, and prompted me to comment, was the way you promoted yourself at the end. It's very rare to hear someone boast in a way that sounds almost free of ego. Yours was a promotion, containing evidence, provided because it it contains the plain truth: I am one of, if not the, best.

[@STATUSDETAIL]

I think that's a good thing? I'm a pretty logical and analytical person. Sometimes that's good. Sometimes that's bad. There are definitely other extremely talented detailer's around the world. Many have KZbin channels and put there great work on display! I do believe the Status experience as a whole is very unique tho!

[@markmusgrave5091]

@@STATUSDETAIL I think it's a very good thing. You do excellent work and should promote yourself accordingly. And look at the comments! I read a bunch of them and couldn't find a negative one.

[@taylorharper1251]

If anyone bothers to make a comment about you being cocky, I'm here to say that you have every right to be. Your absolute mastery of the detailing process as a whole is unparalleled by anything I've ever seen.

[@STATUSDETAIL]

Haha tha n you Taylor! Lots of comments saying all kinds of things including being full of myself. I appreciate your comment! I'm here to show my process and I don't believe I do a bad job. So if course I'd say I'm very good! Lol If your new to the channel check out the bar. Find or gt3 touring video!

[@_BAD_MERC_]

I gotta be honest - you got your reputation honest and the attention to detail you exhibit is second to none. I do a wheels-off detail on my Viper and try to get everything the eyes see. The paint flaws you highlight look atrocious when magnified but I guarantee 95% of people would never notice. That is precisely what makes you exceptional.

[@STATUSDETAIL]

You are correct! Many people won't notice many of the issues. The customer trusts I'll find it and fix it. Or they are equally meticulous and known we see the same thing and definitely need it fixed!

[@Santanapain]

I have ocd and I would trust this guy with anything. I feel like no one matches my mindset when it comes to cleaning or working on my car. but the time, effort, dedication this man has makes me trust him.

[@chevron32]

They’re more like holograms not sanding marks. But pretty much everything you said in this video is legit. A lot of people just don’t have the eyes to see through these details. All new cars in my experience have all defects from the factory. Great vid 🤙🏻

[@STATUSDETAIL]

It started as sanding marks. Then they removed it and didn't fully remove it perfectly. So we call them sanding marks because other areas have swirls that are just normal swirls.

[@joestanciu5555]

Dude…… you are absolutely amazing with paint corrections omg… this honestly has to be the best PC video i have seen. I always thought Larry at Ammo NYC was a mazing and im not saying he isnt but holy shit dude the way you show off the paint is absolutely amazing and it really helps us see how amazing of a detailer you are.

[@nexamax]

Fantastic video, narration, and pure paint correction explanation... BRAVO! I am a paint correction specialist with over 15 years experience. My formative training and OCDism comes from a Swiss watch factory where I applied paint and padstamped date/day, minute tacks, etc... and conducted my own QA/QC to top Swiss brands. I translated that Swiss horology expertise back into my automotive passion for beautifying cars. Every statements brought into this video are absolutely accurate and share the deep thinking process and complexities of this trade. 👍🏻💫

[@STATUSDETAIL]

Love this comment and your background in watches sounds very cool! Thanks for watching! Be sure to watch my gt3 touring video. Also my 993 barn find video. That's a wild paint correction.

[@nexamax]

@@STATUSDETAIL I just watched the 993 barn find, celebrating 1 year now, and yet another beauty getting a second chance... love it Brother!! It reminds me of a red 1985 Alfa Roméo GTV6 I restored some years ago. When the owner came over, as a birthday gift from his wife, he was speechless as to how glossy the single stage paint came out and I found out that the spare tire was an 80s homologued F1 racing tire so I beautified it in its resting place. Great stories... BRAVO!! 👌🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@STATUSDETAIL]

@@nexamax that's awesome! We had planned to show the wife her husband's car and get it in camera but the timing didn't work out unfortunately

[@stephanelouvet1113]

The Geyon Q2 Tyre is also my favourite, I really do like it's sanity finish. Not glossy, not mate, it's in between. Perfect 👌

[@STATUSDETAIL]

I just tried carpro darkside.... It may have dethroned q2 tire. It looks really good and claims 3 months durability! We will see. I'll offer it in statusdetailstore.com very soon. Just need to add it to the catalog.

[@Guss725]

This looks amazing. Wear clothing that doesn't attract dust may be a good idea. Using painter's pants and tunics will prevent dust from getting closer to the application process. Resultantly prevents any dust from getting in between the PPF and the car during the application phase.

[@STATUSDETAIL]

Actually a great comment. I have a habit I'm trying to stop of touching my pants when my hands are to wet. But I get one short blue jean fiber and it ends up in film and then I ntti go back and get it! I have been wondering about a no lint type pants.

[@johannest.7089]

Your attention to detail is second to none. I am exactly like you (without having your skills obviously) and care for the exact same things when cleaning and detailing a car. You must be the worlds best detailer. If I would live a little bit nearer to you (i live in Austria/Europe) I would 100% ship my car to you to get the exact same treatment on my GT4 as on this RS.

[@Scrims_gt]

Thank you for the inspiration. One of these years I will get into detailing high end cars. I currently do spot paint repairs and know how to paint whole cars. I work for the best and fastest manufacturer of EV’s. I used to detail cars at dealerships so I understand how those come out. They just want them out and what the customer does not see goes. I am glad where I work we care about paint quality. Which I do not agree at all which other car companies and dealerships that they don’t care about what the customer may see or not. You are one talented guy. I have driven a 911 gt3 rs and that was so cool at a track. I will watch your other videos. You are one of a very few that are beyond elite.

[@STATUSDETAIL]

Sounds like you have a lot of experience too! Thanks for the kind words as well 🙂

[@filthybstard]

Love stumbling on this type of professional content, it's so much on another level of wow. in this age of instant gratification, not often I sit transfixed on a YT video and watch the whole thing start to finish, blown away by the level of detail that goes into making something perfect.

[@Sharma72]

Count yourself lucky with the condition of that paint. Picked up my brand new GT4 in the same colour in Dec. Paint defects (blistering) on bumper, rear wing, door sill - all plastic parts. A tiny bit of paint even flew off while machine polishing!! Straight back to dealer who repainted affected areas. I’ve now re-polished the whole car and protected with CSL and two coats of EXO. Hopefully get first proper drive this weekend after 2 months of ownership! I think a contactless wash after polishing is essential. Amazed to see some detailers simply IPA and then coat!

[@STATUSDETAIL]

Holy moly that's a story!!!!!!! Sorry to hear that was the situation but I'm glad it was sorted out and that you can start enjoying it ! Nice choice of ceramic 👍 Check out my multiple microfiber wash process vid. I have a fuller more in depth wash guide coming soon too. And you think ipa and coat is bad. Lots of dealerships wash them then ppf right away lol.

[@mm6705]

I once spent three full days detailing my car, and on the maiden voyage through the mountains of southern Utah, we had a freak snowstorm lol. I never detailed it again, and washed it only a few times after. Way too much dust, dirt, mud...etc I'd be spending hours every time I drove it washing that stuff off. Even a quick drive down to the backroads for photos got so much dirt on it. I was dry washing it between shots during the photo shoot. Every minute the car was out there wind brought new coatings of dust. Some environments are just simply impossible to keep a car clean in.

[@STATUSDETAIL]

Oh no! It can definitely be very hard to keep a car clean sometimes!

[@dareneveleigh4647]

I'm having this thought about you wearing a custom outfit, maybe a jump suit, no zippers, no loose hanging coat flaps. Jump suit is light weight and soft to the touch water repellant so that you don't get soaked. You then wear water resistant boots.

Great job. Love your attention to detail. Your right you make it look easy and it’s not. I just got my car back from being repainted and it had a ton of swirl marks all over. I showed a friend and he said take it back to get repainted. I had to paint correct it. It took a couple of days and what a difference. Ceramic coated, hydrophobic coated paint , wheels and calipers. People see my 16 year old Black 6:43 G35 and think it’s new. I’ve detailed for years as a hobby. It’s therapeutic. I noticed you used Gtechnic. I like it too.

[@archiepezek]

Awesome video and amazing results. Thanks for sharing.

[@STATUSDETAIL]

Thanks for watching! 🙂

[@BM-pp3tr]

I personally don’t use the same microfiber towel for the top of the car and the sides and bottom. You will have more dirt, and large size particles on the sides of the car than the top and even more so on the bottom. Use one towel for the top, one for the sides and one for the bottom so that you are not dragging all those potential particles all over the car.

[@STATUSDETAIL]

I don't think you understand the method I showed. It won't matter if you wash front to back. Back to front. Bottom to top etc. Every panel you do is a fresh towel side. You never use a towel side more than once. So each towel and respective side is one time use per wash.

$12k for a car wash on a fairly new/clean car? WTF?

[@STATUSDETAIL]

This is not a car wash. A car wash has a $5 option and takes 60 seconds

[@Dgilman32]

Love when people equate detailing with parking your car in the rain…it’s like comparing a kids meal to steak frites.

[@apox5308]

Porsche charge their customers $12k for a small lip spoiler… so for a car of this value it’s quite good value for money when the paint gets fully protected

[@rianime9371]

Definitely worth it, considering it's condition before and getting it fully protected after getting rid of defects. They are spending more than £200,000 on a car, so £10,000 for a detail, paint correction, then paint protection is worth it. To do the paint correction, the exterior detail is necessary. And if your protecting it, you should correct the paint first. Other people can do it for alot cheaper, but will easily take less care of getting everything right.

[@kevin2true582]

Loose change for some

[@willsrestorations]

After 40 years in this industry I only have the patience to do one perfect detail per week, I charge a ton of money because my attention to detail is extreme. My company motto is, reimagining the art of perfection. I I only use Gtechniq serum ultra and topped with EXO V5. This includes removing the wheels and completely cleaning the bottom of the vehicle, including wheel wells calipers you name it everything gets done. My detail start at $6,800.

Jeez, I can see why this cost $12,000. Didn't think I would watch this all the way through, but you got me hooked.

Glad to hear it! I try really hard to make very engaging videos that are fun and easy to watch

Wow, this is amazing. Awesome job on this GT4RS👏

Thanks 🙂👍👍

So nice to see there are people out there that share the craziness and the need to do things a specific way. Such an amazing job!

Hello welcome to crazy lol

[@kimdotnet8151]

Paint & body technician at the port for VW group of America here, and proud to say we are the #1 port for VW across the globe. This is surprising to see, I wonder which port this vehicle came from. We do see defects like this from time to time, not so much the holograms.. but the amount of swirls and holograms on this car is quite crazy. The door looks like it has been panel painted. I would say 95% of the cars that come off the boat tend to leave here with a perfect finish. We remove the vehicle wraps, wet sand compound and polish every single car that needs it and gets QC'd by 4 people before it gets QC'd by another logistics group next door to us then gets shipped to the dealers. Let me tell you, the Porsche guys are the biggest sticklers lol. They want everything to look better than factory, make it look like its never been touched, but tell us to do things that go against that or that are frowned upon. Paint correction is easy! Just time consuming.

[@STATUSDETAIL]

I'm confused are you in Germany loading cars on or in America unloading? You said 95% of cars that come off the boat leave here here with perfect paint. I don't understand where they came from and where here is. You said we remove the wrap. But the dealership removes it. So that's kinda confusing. Do you remove it and then reinstall it. Because they all show up to dealership wrapped. Your saying multiple people check it polish it etc. For years every gt Porsche I've done has issues. Literally every car. A lot of what your saying just doesn't make sense but I'm curious to here you clarify. Thanks!

[@kimdotnet8151]

​@@STATUSDETAIL I work for VW group of America. So I work in the states. I believe there are 8 VW ports in the US. Our facility is the newest one located in Maryland. I do not unload the boats, 3rd party company does. 3rd party company also inspects vehicles on the boat and when they come off the boat as well. The cars come from Germany and Mexico by boat, Chattanooga by train. I work as a paint and body technician. My department handles factory paint/body defects and all vehicles that get damaged in the process. Like I said, we are the #1 port for VW across the globe and not all port processes are the same though we are trying to set the standard. As far as holograms/swirls, they do not magically appear. You need some sort of agitation for them to appear like car washes.. Some locations have touch free, some don't. BMW port next to us doesn't and I believe all of their cars get run through the car wash so they end up w/ some swirls.

[@kimdotnet8151]

@@STATUSDETAIL I don't know all of the logistics over on PDI/Rework department but they remove the vehicle wrap during their process, it gets sent over next door and the vehicle gets re-wrapped.

[@STATUSDETAIL]

You didn't answer some of my questions so I'm still genuinely confused about some of the things you said you do. Mainly the removing delivery wrap apparently fixing things and then redoing the delivery wrap a second time? Because like I said they show up basically double wrapped to a dealership there's white plastic wrap over the fenders and other parts of the car plus the zippered full body wrap. I also appreciate you explaining to a Detailer how swirl marks happen... It's interesting and makes sense that there are multiple ports so I can definitely understand that some sports might do things better than other ones. I do not know what port this car came into but with some digging I might be able to find out.

[@STATUSDETAIL]

@@kimdotnet8151 oh ok interesting!! I asked the gt4rs and gt3 touring guys what port the cars came From. I'm interested now! Lol

[@df9400]

your passion for your work comes through in the vid, impressive.....note (original pledge) has to be in the running for best smelling tire cleaner. has a very similar finish as the one in this vid.

[@STATUSDETAIL]

Thank you! Never heard someone use pledge on a car lol

[@brendanjohannes9309]

That's an insane amount of work! I would probably say screw the paint and go straight for coloured PPF.

[@STATUSDETAIL]

Agreed on the lot of work part haha. Stek does make pretty cool colored PPF. It's pretty hard to put on! But it is very cool

[@Charlie-go6eb]

This will upset a lot of people. Paint correction is a marketing term to say cut and buff. Make no mistake, any time you wet sand a finish and then buff and polish it removes the mil thickness of the clear coat. Depending on where your located you can actually put the finish in a position where the uv will damage it. I’ll leave alone the other negative affects of a sub standard thin finish after. Me, ICAR Gold Shop and ex instructor. If your ppf’ing your car there’s no reason to do this procedure unless its damaged then add a layer of material that can be up to 12 mils.

[@STATUSDETAIL]

That wasn't exactly accurate and your use of the term cut and buff isn't either. I paint corrected my s4 I just sold 8 years ago and had no clear cost issues during ownership. Dust nibs will look pretty awful when ppf goes over it. If your suggesting PPF conceals dust nibs then I know everything I need to lol

[@Charlie-go6eb]

@@STATUSDETAIL Sorry, but if you wet sand any paint surface on a vehicle it thins the clear coat. I’m not saying nor did I say doing the actual work is going to be a detriment. It really comes down to who is doing the work. On cars that a true show finish is wanted its pretty standard to increase the mil thickness of the clear knowing it’ll be worked pretty good to get the desired result. I completely agree about denibbing a finish. I was not knocking what you or any reputable detailer does, just pointing out what some of the negatives can be. The other very big one is shops that do ppf by hand cutting on the vehicles. Your videos are great, wasn’t insinuating your unprofessional in the least. I’ll leave the cost aspect alone.

[@STATUSDETAIL]

@@Charlie-go6eb definitely agree that you remove clear. It's actually a topic I want to talk more about in future videos. So we are on same page. And I appreciate your comments and viewership 🙂

[@jeremiahjeromehenryphillip2079]

Hands down... This is the best I have seen so far. Attention to detail, very pristine...I must say very well done!!!

I remember seeing this car at Loeber when I first started there as a Detailer. Crazy to randomly see it on KZbin. Feels surreal to watch your workplace on KZbin 🤣 nice job !

[@skycrash1779]

I just found your channel and I have to say, iv'e never seen a better detail. Just the attention to detail, it looks so perfect, I would totally trust you with any car. I live in Germany, but if I had the money I would probably want you to detail my car, even tho it sounds ridiculous. There is just something about knowing your car in the hands of someone with the same passion, who treats the car like his own. Huge props man, keep it up!

[@STATUSDETAIL]

I don't think that sounds ridiculous at all 🙂👍

[@cassokon]

Don't know about the world's most expensive detail (I've wrapped my Rover with PPF for $10k alone) but this is some really good stuff

[@STATUSDETAIL]

Definitely more expensive details around. I'll be doing some more expensive ones soon actually. But for the average viewers it's a very big number lol. Thank you for watching 🙂

I legit watched this whole video for two reasons 1. You are very good at what you do 2. There could be 10 people explaining the same things you just did and I would've tuned out the other 9 because you are very good at that also. I'm buy a Porsche as my next car (Panamera 4s) I wish you were closer I would definitely bring it to you!

[@STATUSDETAIL]

I'm so glad to see comments like this. It can be very hard to tell if I'm on the right track. You must really enjoy the video to comment something like this. I have more great videos coming soon!!

Its easier to keep these standards when you have a limited amount of work. I am interested to see how you progress. Nice work and keep at it!

[@STATUSDETAIL]

I don't really want to expand to do 30 cars a week. I'd rather keep our format and add maybe one or two guys and just increase price as we grow beyond our workflow limits. I like to compare it to singer Porsche. They could definitely be bigger. But don't want to be.

[@jay_hubs_8955]

Best detailer by far on KZbin. Your videos has inspired me to step my game up

[@STATUSDETAIL]

Thank you! That's a awesome compliment 🙂🙂👍

[@bigstickerperformance6670]

Wow! Absolutely amazing work! 👌 I have driven past dealership's and seen people washing new cars with just a bucket and sponge and thought to myself, 'wouldn't that scratch the paint?' Guess the answer is yes, and they will even do it to a Supercar.

[@STATUSDETAIL]

You would be shocked how things go down in a dealership. Many dealerships do a pretty good job. But most of the issues we see in new cars actually come from manufacturing and have nothing to do with dealer. But I've seen supercar dealers do really bad wash practices in person while walking around or getting a tour.

[@padthai411]

I had a vinyl shop and digital printing company for 2 1/2 years, the products ate into my margins so much I had to shut down. Hence the price point of this job. But I did get to wrap my car for free, lol.

[@STATUSDETAIL]

Yeah It can definitely be a tough business to be in we are fortunate because we work on exotic cars and these are also very difficult to do but it also means we can charge the correct amount and the customers typically have the money to pay. If you're doing this kind of work or vinyl work on more normal cars you're asking still a lot of money but the customer might not be as wealthy which makes it hard for them to come up with the money. This obviously then makes it hard for the business to make money. So I'm not completely shocked your out of business because it's a hard business to be in. You have to charge a large amount of money to do professional work but your customer base might not have it. This kind of work caters very well to the high end market though. And trust me even in this market segment we get customers that give us grief on price all the time. Hope you moved into better brighter things 👍👍

[@local56]

Absolutely amazing detail, you have the patience of a Saint. If I had the money you would definitely get my business.
