Porsche GT2 - How to Wet Sand & Polish Carbon Fiber

[@Vanhamj1]

the lifetime of knowledge in Jason's head is impressive. Larry, you have incredible skills so for you to go to Jason shows him a ton of respect.

[@thecardoc5083]

Larry, I just absolutely love how despite you being such a detailing guru, you remain teachable and share that aspect of your being with us. Great content but even better principles that honestly apply to life in general and are so lacking in the world we live in. Thanks brother.

[@kenbode8806]

I remember this project very well as I was at Detailer’s Domain for their open house. You were running around looking for Meguiars microfiber pads when you were compounding the top side of the carbon fiber wing!

[@JDMJDK]

Jason always provides me with a personal “Duh” moment guaranteed. Great tip on using the vacuum when there’s no compressed air. Excellent content as always!

[@tier1detailcompany]

I would highly recommend getting a pad washer! The compressed air and vacuum methods are rough on the pad and don't do a particularly stellar job. Besides compressed air blows stuff everywhere lol. Hope this helps!

[@vincentmiano342]

@@tier1detailcompany how is that pad washer works?

[@tier1detailcompany]

@@vincentmiano342 the pad washer is the best thing I've purchased in a long time. It has a mixture of water and a cleaning solution. After using it the pad is brand new clean. No residue unlike blowing out the pad which still leaves residue and has degraded pad performance. Also no dust mess all over the shop and in your lungs. It's honestly amazing to me that more detailers don't use a pad washer.

Thank you. This is EXACTLY what I subscribed to this channel for! The wonky, deep, nitty gritty details. I love it.

[@basketball798]

Jason always calm and collected. Paint correction is an art form especially when random things happen like this

[@dillanmistry]

These older videos are golden, you literally look like you haven’t aged either

[@johnvorih5201]

Needed this video so bad! Just got a used carbon fiber hood for my Focus ST and man was I stressed to detail it. This helps a ton!

[@deanricketts2984]

Absolutely love the content Larry! You’ve taught and helped not just myself but millions of people. Thank you so much for all that you do! 🙏🏼. And don’t worry, we’ll be watching. 🤣😎

[@ConcoursCosmetic]

This was such an informative video, crazy content for free really 🙌

[@yankswright5326]

Learned a lot watching this video. I dont need to pay for a class now

[@glumdogtrillionaire]

I wouldn't necessarily say that hand sanding is more aggressive, it can be, but the issue with sanding marks was due to your technique. You need overlapping sessions at 45 degrees to the last.

[@padpanic971]

High Quality detailing content Larry ! Thank

[@nextleveldetailllc5360]

Larry does a great job in his instruction, explanations and chosen regimen in all his videos. Viewers can find answers to their real world questions and benefit from Larry’s knowledge at their convenience. We should all be grateful but at the same time be careful. Larry makes it look easy because he has years of experience, has learned from his mistakes and has never stopped learning. He will tell you the same thing when it comes to paint correction, detailing etc., what separates the amateur from the professional is not the machines, products, or videos viewed; it’s ‘Professional Training’ by industry leading instructors. Investing in yourself by completing paid course work & hands on training is the only way to take yourself to the next level of your career/skill set. KZbin is great but it doesn’t make you a professional. And as a professional you must be willing to learn from others at anytime; just as Larry does. Right when you think he has to know everything there is; he shares a humbling moment of a lesson learned. Great video Larry!

[@compmanben2593]

Really enjoyed the outtakes

[@1kontrabida]

The defect on the carbon fiber is the resin and clear reacting to heat from polishing.

[@HypnotizinDetailz]

Absolutely brilliant Larry! 👌🏻🤩👍🏻

[@kevincampbell8298]

So much experience, you can’t help but learn. No matter how much you know. Maybe even a different way to get to the same place faster!

[@vetteboy1024]

Great video Larry!

[@camm6991]

Great ep and relevant as I've got a carbon motorbike front guard with plenty of solvent pop (and other issues). Interesting to know how to deal with it in future although this piece is going to be a strip and re-clear to get it perfect. ;)

[@johnnymckissick2735]

What tools would you recommend for small detailed parts?

[@joeyschmidt7546]

i need to do this to my old carbon fiber exhaust valance and carbon spoiler extender

[@stephanelouvet1113]

Thanks the lesson and tips ! 🙂 But I think in some casses, detailing is just not worth it. Look at here how much time and efforts have been spent. As the wing is already removed from the car. Don't you think sanding it down and just respray a new clear-coat would have been quicker and cheaper ?

[@thatblackua7]

absolute facts. if ammo needs to charge accordingly for his time invested than it only makes sense to re clear & not run the risk of losing to much clear when polished. re clear & properly protect it with plastic from the start

[@tonyfondacaro1980]

There's two types of people in this world: Those who look at a car and see how shiny and beautiful it looks, and then those who will find the miniscule defect somewhere on that car and refuse to see anything else until it's gone.

[@brian2359]

I remember meeting you at Phil’s!

[@andrewwickes1091]

Was the wing painted or gel coated then placed in a vacuum bag similar fiberglass?

[@granthawtree4669]

Did the exact same thing today on a M6 GT3

[@sergerobitaille6065]

Thank you so much for the video

[@matthewsmith5394]

Love this intro

[@darius2640]

do you think it would be easier for an average honda civic bro who doesn't normally do polishing to just lightly hand sand it down or even scotch brite it and then spray it with rattle can clear coat to make it shiny but not damage the integrity of the part underneath

[@angelcolon2026]

So you don’t need a clear coat ?

[@henrycollins2478]

After reading the description, I realized it’s Wednesday. How is it only Wednesday?!

[@josiahkaufman393]

What spray bottle is that at the 12:00 mark?

[@jaaphoogendijk671]

Kwazar Mercury Super 360 Pro+ 500 ml

[@kentuckylover13]
