You are my inspiration drake🙏🏻. keep it goin

[@jeffeisenzapf4131]

Awesome video Drake thanks for sharing new info..I learn so much from you and your videos looking forward to the ceramic video on this thanks!!!

[@DrakesDetailing]

Thank you!

[@narzvog8470]

Never thought that I would need a purple wool pad in my life. That's amazing, its gotta cut detail times almost in half.

[@MikesAutoDetailing]

There he is, havnt seen you in awhile.... awesome video

[@meganmulholland7777]

Cool!! Looked like it worked amazing!

[@Bio_Clean]

Hi Drake thanks a lot about your help...I am ready to start my detailing...I love to know from you all the steps when bouts have oxidation till the end 😊

[@DrakesDetailing]

Hey bro! This video should help with teaching how to remove oxidation 😎m.kzbin.info/www/bejne/q2OsgqKLbbudqNk Hope this helps!

[@darkskater107]

I use the 3 inch version on my 3 inch Rupes. They are amazing pads. Haven't tried the bigger ones cause I'm stuck on old ways.

[@bobbygeneperry2589]

Been using lc foamed purple wool since 2011. By far my favorite cutting pad. Most of the time I just use poor boys professional polish. Instead of compound. There are no abrasives and zero dust. It's completely pad dependent. All I do is change pads . Not polishes. Saves me over 500 in compoubds and polishes a year. And it's cheap at 74 dollars a gallon.

[@DrakesDetailing]

Nice!

[@georgespapillon364]

Hi Drake ! Do you remember in which of your video you mention how to remove the yellowing on the gelcoat ? I never had this yellowing in the past, but this year, I have some. Do you know what cause the yellowing ?

[@masterislandboylapointe715]

Broo woww what a coincidence yesterday i was recommended to try that pad..i didnt cuz i have been using all your step so far great ...but i guess i will try it so far all ur info is doung me good👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽🚤🚤🚤🤘🤘🤘

[@jordanschoonover7735]

What do you think about using starke lever R, then starke elevate, then nautical one ceramic ????? Looking at upgrading my stuff and I am giving this pad a try! Hard to find on Amazon I ordered it and they are going fast! You are an innovator!

[@rodneyarmstrong2548]

What about the lc blue 100% wool pad? I used it on a black and white hull with menzerna 1000, it took 800 grit wet sanding scratches out with ease.

[@MrJohnWilt]

In the middle you said the second step is to remove the deeper sanding marks? Sounds backwards?

[@AustinDubya94]

Hey drake I’m having some trouble with spots on my boat and would love to hear your advice thanks! I have pictures I can show you.

[@sergerobitaille6065]

You very the best pro

[@Basscater81]

A few guys I’ve talked to are rarely using their rotary on gel now because of LC purple and low lint pads

[@BombsorDingers]

Looking for an all around tool, not really wanting to buy a rotary if I can do most everything with the a Flex. Can you get similar results with the LC Purple on the Flex that you can with the rotary?

[@Basscater81]

@@BombsorDingers sorry for late reply. Yes. Especially if you’re doing some sanding before polishing steps. Check out the makita forced rotation polisher.

[@hotboyran]

Hey Drake. Do you think it’s possible to do a full detail on a boat that’s docked at a harbor in water. Most of my customers have their boat in water..I understand underneath won’t be done but I’d like to work on everything possible to make a customer happy. Can you do a tutorial?

[@cbylinski]

Hey Drake. I was doing my van and used the orange pad with the Flex, still had swirl marks. Switched to the grey Lake Country forced foam, still swirl marks. The purple took them right off. All these steps were with Medzerna 400. But the purple foam pad has no padding-should I have used a foam interface pad? It worked without one, but I’m wondering if that would be better. Thanks.

[@6figuredetailer709]

Sick video and boat. Where do you find the background music for your videos ?

Hi there, I love all of the videos and I'm having great success from your info. What to do remove bird droppings with after you ceramic coat the surface with repel pro or thor? Thanks for your time! Pat

What do you use to film? Starting my own detailing business as well and want to record my work like you, big inspiration to me

[@DrakesDetailing]

Thanks! I use a canon m50 and gopro 90

[@timgoos9389]

Is this good for removing oxidation aswell?

[@ericd1276]

Do you like this pad better than the grey Lc with menzerna 400

[@bigmeaney555]

Can that pad be used on the 9237C

[@ericd1276]

What’s up with the Menzerna supply homie? None of the big 3 I shop at have it including your website. I’m almost out!!!

[@johndjordan8289]

How do you fix sun damaged Gelcoat.. not just oxidation. But those tiny spider cracks.

[@ibiubu99]

I can only afford 1. Just me and my white oxidized boat. So… Griot G9 or Dewalt rotary ? Thank you

[@wyboatman5815]

Hey Drake, so for the purple wool pad is for first step and finishing with orange foam pad?

[@DrakesDetailing]

The purple foam wall pad is a second step. The first step would be to use a white wool on a Rotary, Then use the purple pad with a finer compound, then use the orange on a forest rotation, or a DA polisher

[@wyboatman5815]

@@DrakesDetailing well noted and many thanks

[@QuadTap]

I've got a 21mm random orbital buffer (Milwaukee) and I want to buff some heavy oxidation off my mastercraft ski boat... what would you recommend?

[@DrakesDetailing]

I’d recommend a rotary buffer for heavy oxidation.

[@QuadTap]

@@DrakesDetailing welp don't have one so... Wet sand + 21mm wool + ultracut is what I'm going to try

[@craigeng1545]

Instead of Stark elevate, would Menzerna 2500 work instead?

[@DrakesDetailing]

Yes

[@masterspin7796]

RUPES med cut wool pad can also replace the twisted wool, I learned this on my last boat, I tossed my twisted wool pads..OUT OF DATE.

[@masterspin7796]

Im also using Malco tru-grit heavy duty...Do you know a compound that is more aggressive?...thanks in advance..

[@tylerdominiak3210]

If on a darker tan color would you still use that foam wool pad or go back to your bread and butter with the orange pad ?

[@DrakesDetailing]

Either will typically work, I like my orange foam!

[@patrickgarrido3672]

do you know if the swirl marks came off with the rotary machine

[@DrakesDetailing]

Yea can, if you use a white wool then follow up with a medium cut yellow wool

[@joshgaddy6493]

how does buffing directly in the sun affect your compound?

[@DrakesDetailing]

A lot! They will typically break down a lot faster. They dry up and don’t cut as much.

[@tylerdominiak3210]

Can’t find the stake elevate is that like the menzerna 3500?

[@DrakesDetailing]

Elevate would be closer in comparison to Menzerna 400, not Menzerna 3500. However I do not associate or represent Starke Products any longer. Shine supply Chop Top is by new go-to medium cut compound!! www.detailusupply.com/products/shine-supply-chop-top-32oz

[@tylerdominiak3210]

@@DrakesDetailing okay shine supply is better price what would be your three steps ….. what for heavy cut …. Chop top for getting out halograms than burn out for fine polish/sealant ?

[@davidmurphy9671]

How do you suggest cleaning the purple foamed wool pad?

[@DrakesDetailing]

You can string it out with warm soapy water, but truthfully it’s one of those pads where once it’s gone it’s gone, and you just get a new one

[@luithegreat7520]

@@DrakesDetailingthey make a boot tassel thing that separates the fibers a bit and helps. Just air it out often as well 👌

[@tubu1ar86]

So does this cut out a rotary machine completely now?!??

[@DrakesDetailing]

No not really. You will still need the rotary for Javier oxidation

[@toddjordan5459]

Do you have to make sure it keeps spinning on a DA machine?

[@DrakesDetailing]

You cannot use this pad with a DA, Rotary only

[@kevinm6808]

@@DrakesDetailing The LC site says you can use this on a DA. Would there be an benefit to using this on a DA followed by an orange pad? Both using elevate. I only have a DA right now.

How do you clean the purple wool?

[@DrakesDetailing]

Just a little soap and water

[@pjfan173]

The boat companies could charge 5,10,20 K extra to have the boat perfect when delivered.

[@DrakesDetailing]

I know! Ha

[@bsdwiz]

For what these boats cost, it should come from the factory already looking like this!

[@SaltyPirate71]

If you pay $1.2M-$1.4M for a boat, it damn well better not come from the factory needing thousands of dollars in detail work and gelcoat correction. I would be PISSED! Can you imagine buying a factory new Ferrari LaFerrari (the same price) only to need a paint correction done upon delivery? (This also applies to that factory new Mag Bay.) A $1.4M boat should come with its own deck monkey.

[@mattyp2123]

Lol the Ferrari will come swirled up too

[@tthams73]

You’re happy with that??? You needed to finish with a foam pad and polish! Wool won’t polish. Wool is for cutting and correcting. Period! The final finish you showed was hazy. There shouldn’t be ANY haze when you’re done. You want complete optical clarity! If you’re not finish polishing with a foam pad you’re not going to get a good result. And that was not a good result. Do the right!

[@DrakesDetailing]

Bro you suck, go away haha

[@validatedcustomer604]

Theres nothing to polish 😅 it’s brand new
