SUMMARY & PERSONAL THOUGHTS
THIS ONE WAS A BEAUTY. Talk about a disaster detail though, the paint on this Tornado Red GTI was just in rough rough shape. Usually with a paint correction, I go in knowing how to initiate, but with this car having so many things like scratches, swirls, and worst of all, water etching, it definitely gave me a run for my money. Using Stoner's Compound though made it easy as heck, just note that if you use this stuff, its AGGRESSIVE! So, keep it on the shelf for hard paint such as a lot of European Cars like this. Definitely replacing Meguiar's M105 with this stuff for my aggressive needs!
The wash portion of the detail was actually super easy, the only issue was the Florida Summer Sun and it was baaad. Had to wash the vehicle in parts just to make sure I could micro-manage the water on the paint and try my best to keep it from drying. We are polishing though, so it didn't matter too much, but its good practice to try and prevent it as much as possible.
The entire paint correction was tough, long, but fun. We used Stoner's Compound, followed by Sonax Cut & Finish, and then wrapping it all up with Sonax Perfect Finish as usual! Definitely wanting to get some more compound/polishes from other companies now and really try more after using Stoner's. It just made me think "I know what I have works and I'm comfortable, but maybe it's time to start reaching out again and trying stuff." And thats exactly what I Plan on doing. After it was polished though, we used the usual Gtechniq Crystal Serum + EXO V4 to coat the GTI, and we were set!
Obviously we polished & coated the exhaust tips (even though he now has XForce Exhaust System), threw tire dressing on, etc. At the end of it all tough, the car was insanely nice! The Tornado Red is breathtaking. Plus it was nice to get a car with some color this time around!

My man drops another stellar video. Since you stopped speeding up your videos so much , I watch start to finish . Hopefully that helps your algorithm. I like how you spread the iron remover around with your glove. That’s a slick move I learned from Matt Moreman. No joke I subscribe to and watch many detailing videos, and there’s only one guy I’m aware of who is more skilled at doing paint correcting, and that’s Jim White. It is your forte 👏

[@drskate97]

Love the diversity of cars, makes and models you have for detailing!

I'm getting everything together for doing this with my Tornado red MK7 (same as this one). It's a lot of work, but can't wait for the results and going to ceramic coat it with carbon force. I see I should get the little 1" polisher; that looks like it came in clutch.

[@Gabrielmg92]

I have the same MaxShine M8 polisher, awesome little beast.

[@SilverShamrock71]

everything I hate on 7 GTIs, rear wiper delete, tuner stickers, front grille delete, carbon mirror caps and those corrosion magnet stock diamond cuts (get a nice set of 18" Prets already!!), otherwise a super fine job on the paint correction!! Gyeon Q2 rim on the exhausts (thanks for the tip)

[@orbytl2799]

You messed up the video by talking especially when the beat drops.
