6:08 I would recommend you fold your towel twice to give you a square of four sides. Gives you more cushion and avoid causing scratches if you wipe in one section and buff off final wipe with new towel and you can wipe that one back in forth. Happy detailing 😀 P.s light pressure on wiping with towels

[@PHARRAWAY]

sounds good brother nice tip

[@marcuswhite1403]

Looks good. I'm also using the 3m 3 step method, but always seem to get swirl marks and have a tough time getting rid of them

[@thespraysociety3276]

I also get swirl marks with black , once it's in the sun it shows everything ,I use wax for my final step or a orbital buffer for the final step

[@arccraft8583]

Just my 50¢ advice,need wait 30days to for the paint totally cure,then its easy for u to do the detailing job,coz newly paint always leave swirl mark if u try to polish it, although u using expensive material or tool..

[@marcuswhite1403]

@@arccraft8583 when you're in the collision business, you can't wait 30 days. Maybe restoration work

[@iam1smiley1]

If you're doing 3 step process with wool pad first, next use step 1 foam pad and step 1 polish. Also wipe off last polish step compound when going to step 2 and 3. Leaving some compound from last step will make for a coarser finish....swirl marks. Also try to keep your pad flat. Darker colors also finish best with hand applied Mothers Gold Carnuba cleaner wax. There are 2 Carnuba waxes from them....a pure Carnuba which is streaky and the cleaner Carnuba one which is best. I'm a little old school and still like the 10" orbitals to finish, more surface area and I think a nicer finish than all the smaller machines popular now (except tight spots like inside trailer mirror you don't want to remove). -34 years polishing....wow, didn't think I'd still be doing it! 😂

[@aceinyourfacebcm259]

U should hv went 2000, 3000, 5000, 8000 wet on DA and just use the white foam pad then the back and blue . It buffs out so easy and u save so much compound . For as much compound u used I could hv done the hole door plus u don’t get no swirls from the wool pad.

[@PHARRAWAY]

Awesome will try it

[@Dan_Rebuilds]

Really helpful

[@precbsfender]

This is why new paint jobs cost a fortune, its not necessarily the time it takes to spray the vehicle, its the cut and buff that takes most the time, time is costly..

[@PHARRAWAY]

Thank You brother

[@johngaytes-ex7nt]

But isn't the black foam pad the finest? why did you finish with the blue? greetings from Athens Greece

[@johnsmith-qz4bv]

great video....we just painted a classic car but only put 2 heavy wet coats of clear...how long do u let it dry before u can cand and buff it.?

[@daymianhayes2493]

Have you tried Norton Liquid Ice? One compound, just use different pads.

[@PHARRAWAY]

Not yet

[@BloodSweatnBass]

This is awesome thanks for sharing. How do you know when to transition from one step to the next?

[@vidaljuarez6791]

The first step is get all the big scratches out and u have to see shine ,it's not gonna be the best shine but u have to see it and then u move on but usually u do about 2 or 3 passes each

[@tonef4158]

Can you also do this with single stage paint job

[@beckibell3232]

thanks! I must ask.. how many coats of clear are enough for safe final polish?? wish I lived near you

[@PHARRAWAY]

I usually do 4 coats

[@unidentified-27]

Awesome job. I have a question please. Do strong water pressures at the car washes remove all these layers after a while? including the clear coat. When should we expect all these layers to have come off from all the washing? And are there any tips about this? Like never to use a high water pressure on a car?

[@PHARRAWAY]

no once this polishes are on they are on the only one hat might be removed it the last one after a while

How do you stop getting DA marks? Painted the hood on my truck, wet-sanded with the DA with - soapy water, no less - 1200, 1500, 2000, 2500, 3000 and then buffed. DA marks all over the place! Mostly just an issue with horizontal areas but annoying as hell.

[@ironmanhulkbuster]

Will this fix overspray?... I recently painted my hood but I got some over pray while I was painting other parts... I figured I could get rid of the over spray with some 1500 and 2000 and then just compound and polish

[@PHARRAWAY]

Yes it will

[@31acruz]

Question: For the cutting part, how many gallons does the compressor need to be minimum. And what kind of tool are you using on that air hose? is it a DA? why can't I just use the same DA I use for polishing?

@@PHARRAWAY ok thanks

[@jessesturgill1250]

Have you ever had to deal with fine sand scratches coming back after being buffed. I work at a body shop so the paint jobs are all new. I've had this issue for a while. What I've been doing is sanding the nibs and peel and then just letting that sit for awhile before buffing that seems to help but I don't always have time to do that. Any help would be appreciated much. God bless

[@PHARRAWAY]

Yes sometimes I do all I do it just buff it again

[@sousay2000]

I also work at a body shop. I find that you need to let the paint cure for at least a day or two before a cut and buff. New paint that’s to soft tends to leave scratches due to pressure. Even a microfibre cloth will leave scratches if you apply to much force

[@gunner49er]

Very nice vid do you ever use a unwaffled smooth foam pad and why

yes I have use it I like it
