Hey Phil and Jess. That is one boss truck! The owner made a great choice protecting a big investment. He picked the right crew for the job. Looks excellent!

[@waynefromnewfoundland8740]

I had made a joke in a previous video that you guys were going to corner the big black truck market! I starting to think that you already have.😂😂

Well its just the wash process. The rest of the service is in our garage.

[@neilwalker5041]

The gloss was incredible after applying Ultra. On newer paints I have been using the yellow Rupes pad as my first option. Sometimes I have to change it up but when they work the gloss is impressive. Smart move coating the interior as I think this is equally as important as protecting the paint. Thank you for the video and congratulations to the owner of this beautiful truck.

[@MirandaDetailing]

Thanks man! 😎👍🏼

[@ddautodetailing]

Very nice! I have a similar type cover on my truck and was curious about coating it. I'll have to try a little test spot. Thanks for sharing that part, I hadn't seen anything on them. I do believe 303 makes a spray protectant for them.

[@MirandaDetailing]

Yeah sometimes the solid bed covers are a painted textured metal and the coatings don’t apply well on those because of the texture. So a spray protectant like 303 is usually best.

[@danielcastorena3057]

Small break in period for those Rupes Pads, once those foam cells open up the pads are fabulous 👌

[@waynefromnewfoundland8740]

I purchased a new 5” Rupes DA last summer and made the switch to their matched system. The yellow pads and polish are the work horse of the system, but I agree, they deliver a good result and also have much needed durability.

[@thedetailspot]

Paint was not terrible but you can definitely tell a difference in clarity after you polished. Great explanation of steps as always Phil.

[@MirandaDetailing]

Totally! Thanks man! By the way love the tips and advice you give on the podcasts! We need more detailers teaching real methods, techniques, and advice instead of just dogmatic rules and elitist ideologies. So many “detailers” that only criticize and bully us smaller guys. Keep at it man!

[@thinkforyourself5672]

That Lithium Ignite After Wash is a phenomenal drying aid. I was surprised how well it worked. If you want some added protection left behind.

[@seabrew1]

Nice video. I really like rupes yellow as well but i like the LC orange SDO a tad more. They are cheaper then the rupes yellow pads.

[@kemountc]

Hey Phil and Jess, you make some great and informative videos. I have that same tonneau cover and currently use Griot's 3-in-1 ceramic on it. Do you have a recommendation for use on it that might be better? Thanks

[@MirandaDetailing]

Hi. Thanks. So the Griots Products will work great as long as they are providing protection and its easy to clean each time. you could try ceramic coating it also.

[@Flatfourdetailing]

Hey Phil, awesome job! Question, for leftover waterspots like by the door handle what do you wipe it away with? I always finding leftover waterspots after the vehicle is dried. Thanks!

[@MirandaDetailing]

Hi. Usually we just use a quick detailer to get any stray water drips. That’s another reason why we try to blow dry everything as much as possible. But even still sometimes water drops out! Drives us nuts! 😵‍💫😆

[@ramirotorresjr7518]

Nice job Phil! Always good work and amazing results. Quick question in your experience what are differences between Dr. Beasley's NSP 45/95 to carpro essence? Have seen in your old videos you did used to use carpro essence but seems from atleast newer videos you have steered away from it to prefer this Dr. Beasley's product just curious. Thank you for awesome videos and advice they do sure help.

[@MirandaDetailing]

Hi. Thanks. Great question. So the Dr Beasley's NSP polishes can be used and ceramic coated over immediately. The Carpro Essence polish is great stuff also but you have to wait 24 hours before you can apply their ceramic coating on it. I think our profession for work with any ceramic coating but I haven't tested it to make sure.

[@ramirotorresjr7518]

@@MirandaDetailing OK thank you that would make sense 24hrs is too long of wait for sure when using in a business.

[@MirandaDetailing]

You’re welcome!

[@jeffreyrobert9460]

Just spectacular Phil. You and Jess do it again. Does Gtechniq require you to be certified for CSU?

[@MirandaDetailing]

Hi. Thanks! Yes to install CSU one has to be accredited. We became accredited this past year. 😎👍🏼. We also became Gyeon this year!

[@stevefulton5884]

AWESOME JOB PHIL AND JESS. I’ve been wondering when you all would advance to Ultra. I am a System X installer now and I think Ultra is comparable to System X Diamond. I know you all have a bunch of the best cordless, battery operated buffers. I have a Rupes Bigfoot DA polisher and I like it but I am tired of messing with cords. Which one do you prefer? Thank you.

[@MirandaDetailing]

Thanks man! We definitely love the new SPTA version cordless polishers. We always use them!

[@stevefulton5884]

@@MirandaDetailing I see you using those and I know you have the Flex as well. That says a lot to me. Much appreciated.

Morning! ☕️ got my coffee from coffee trade this month. Panther Mejor and I also got a package of Lavazza coffee that a friend gave to me recently.

That’s good I got Cinnabon coffee ☕️

[@rozansabdur]

Hi phill, does carpro essence have same type as nsp 45? Does it need to panel wipe before coat or it could coat over?

[@MirandaDetailing]

Hi. CarPro Essence css add my be costed right away. If you wait 24h you can coat right over it without an panel wipe. That’s just what I learned from fellow detailers. The NSP polishes however can be coated right away without a panel wipe.

[@Gnetbird]

Hi, thank you for your time and expertise. Do I need to top CLS with EXOv4? I just want good protection on the cars and was wondering if I can use CSL as a stand alone?

[@MirandaDetailing]

Oh I see. It’s optional to top with EXOv4 and we charge extra to do that. But if the customer wants it we install both. CSL and CSU are considered stand alone coatings.

[@Gnetbird]

Thanks! You deserve some coffee👍👍

[@MirandaDetailing]

[@claudiofunari2304]

What size orfice do you use for you nozzle on the ar blue 630 I use a 4.0 but was wondering if I should move to a 5.0 thanks!

[@MirandaDetailing]

[@Gnetbird]

I have two new cars for coating. Do you recommend this coating for professional and long lasting coating with the first coating not the second coating ? And for the inside coating?

[@MirandaDetailing]

Hi. What do you mean by the first or second coating? For the inside coatings the Gtechniq leather guard and smart fabric are awesome.

[@05xrunner]

how is the vibration of the SPTA new vs old? I have the older one and I will say the vibrations do get to me after using it for about 45min or so. I even replaced the crap grease with quality grease and lined the interior of the body with dynamat. If the newer is better I might upgrade. Even though I only do my truck and my wife's SUV so not alot of use I would rather have something more comfortable

[@MirandaDetailing]

The vibration is definitely much less with the newer version. However if polishing for long periods of time I sometimes use these amzn.to/3l8P6YC

[@05xrunner]

@@MirandaDetailing hmmmm those gloves would be the less expensive route. But I do like the speed control on the new one. I hate the old one starts on full power. I mainly run it at the middle speed on it. so being able to select 3-4 and never change would help and make the better last longer

[@maestrooscuro5299]

I wanted to ask can any ceramic go over the dr Beasleys polish?

[@MirandaDetailing]

Hi. Yes it can.

[@trd3786]

After applying Gtechniq C4, trim coating, when I wash my car, is there anything I should use to maintain the C4 trim coating?

[@MirandaDetailing]

You can use the Liquid Crystal C2v3 that you use on the paint in the trim also.

[@kevincampbell8298]

I really like the new Rupes pads. I find the yellow cuts a little more than the LC orange. And still finishes down really nice. Haven’t tried their new polish though.. great looking finish in the truck. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👊👊

[@davestewart9146]

If I let my wife have control of the pressure washer there would be more water on me then the truck, just saying lol, the truck came out beautiful 👍😁❤️

[@chrissemsch8781]

What’s the difference between the McKees floor mat stuff you used and other stuff like 303?

[@MirandaDetailing]

The McKees didn’t really restore anything. It cleaned well though. The trim shine or 303 protectant we used actually dresses it up. But we have to wipe it down really well to remove any slipperiness.

Take your mf towel and really get it wet, wring it out well. Do that 2 or 3 times, the last time wring it out REALLY well. Now go over the inside again with no chemical. Do that procedure after each section/door panel. If that doesn’t work let us know, I have an idea why, but let’s see if that works first.

Hi thanks. The towels we used for leveling are just the Kirkland yellow towels. I wash them before hand and they work incredibly well. I have had people saying they scratch and all sorts of ridiculous things about them. But what I have learned is that sometimes you get a bad batch. I have had a few bad batches and I just return them and get a new package and they are great.

Hey Phil. Show us on video how you apply carpet/fabric protector. We would like to see how you do it without getting the spray everywhere

[@MirandaDetailing]

I basically spray and then wipe down plastics I got it on. I’ll have to do a dedicated video on that.

[@chrissemsch8781]

@@MirandaDetailing ya, that’s what I do/done. But,,,,,,,,, here’s the conundrum, do I coat the plastics first or the carpet/fabric seats first? The fabric/carpet guard is solvent based and solvents will take off water based plastic/vinyl protectants. So now I’ve sprayed the carpet/fabric guard first then let the solvent based guard dry off(which happens fairly quickly because it’s a solvent) and then put the plastic or leather conditioner on. I would like to get/try a pump sprayer with a fan sprayer nozzle (similar to what you use when you spray apc pre rinse on the outside body) I think that will eliminate/reduce the overspray.

[@MirandaDetailing]

Ah I see. The fabric protectant we used is alcohol based and does dry off fairly quickly. But yeah you’re right. Maybe do that first if one is concerned with possibly removing the leather/vinyl treatment.
