TIPS For Using Hybrid Solutions Ceramic Polish & Wax / Paint Enhancement

[@HantsLeo]

Hi Phil, it was good to see a 'normal' car getting the treatment instead of one that was almost mint to start with. Some of those sanding scuffs made me cringe but it was nice to watch, thankyou. Stay safe both of you.

[@hartlanddetailer5670]

Thank you for recommending this product to me. I have found by using the Turtle Wax Hybrid line of products excellent. After properly preparing my vehicles for polishing, I applied 2 coats of the polish/wax, waiting 24 hours between coatings. Then I applied 2 coats of the ceramic coating, again waiting 24 hours between coats. It has now been 7 months since applying, and both of my cars look great! I use ONR for maintenance washes, occasionally use their 3 in 1 detailer. After 6 months, I used their hybrid wash, then dried with their wet wax. Phil, keep up the Great Work, thanks...

[@MirandaDetailing]

You’re welcome!! That’s awesome!

[@Carlos.Rivera]

Paint job was awful... hope to see more jobs with polish and wax in the sun if possible. You guys did amazing job, keep warm and cozy out there

[@notfound-qg2ii]

Amazing turnaround on that old 9C1. The level of correction was excellent considering the type of paint used. Thanks for the tip regarding misting the panel after the TWU correction.

[@gmctech]

Holy hand grenade batman! That tip to spray the distilled water on the TW Ceramic to take out the greasey film/smudge is the B.O.M.B!!! Definitely earned you a thumbs up and a new subscriber. 😎 It never ceases to amaze me how the pros like yourself give the viewership trade secrets so easily. I've been in the automotive industry for almost three decades and never not once have I ever seen that little water spritz trick used to even out a polish.. I just used it on my black Jetta and you saved me almost 1.5 hours of rubbing and buffing with a bag full of microfiber towels chasing that bloody ceramic polish greasey film/smudge look all over...

I did a one step on both our cars with the ceramic polish. Used the Rupes Yellow wool pads and got great results.

[@jdisdetermined]

I dig those medium wool pads. Alot like the 50/50 but they run a bit cooler, very forgiving on arm speed. Love that wool is making a big resurgence in the DA era. Once people realize there are a ton of misconceptions about it, and give it a try, they become fans of it quickly. Check out the purple LC Hybrid Wool pad with 1&Done if you want a bit more cut and pure correction before a coating.

[@MirandaDetailing]

Oh yeah! We do live those purple foamer wool pads. I’ll have to try it with one and done when we need more cut. Thanks!

It seems using a rinseless wash solution 1:256 works as well if not better than water to remove the TW polishing compound :)!

[@MirandaDetailing]

Hi. It can I guess. I’ve used both and didn’t see a difference. But definitely use what works for you.

[@rondail5675]

I really like the new Turtle Wax Products. But not the Hybrid Ceramic Wax(non black version). I completed my 2019 Honda Ridgeline. I first thoroughly cleaned the truck. I polished with 5" rotary, using blue foam pad, and using Turtle Wax Hybrid Ceramic Polish&Wax. This worked nicely for application, clean-off, and swirl removal. I waited a few days and applied the Turtle Wax Hybrid Ceramic Wax. This I didn't like! Apply and wiping off left light&dark streaking, uneven. I had to wipe down with a damp microfiber cloth and immediately with a dry microfiber. I have used the TW ICE Wax and Detailing on my Corvette. Works easily, and has the shine. I will not buy the TW Ceramic Wax or Detailer again!

[@MirandaDetailing]

HI Thanks for sharing, Yeah the Hybrid Spray Coating will leave some high spots, but what you mentioned using a damp MF towel and a dry one to Buff is the recommended way to level it, It bonds immediately so its still there, but the high spots and streaks need a little water to level out. Its does that when I apply it also, but i learned that water trick and it's totally fine. Same goes with Seal and Shine, if it leaves high spots/streaks a damp towel will level them and make them go away. But use what works for you man! We all have products we like and the just work for us well, others have a learning curve.😎👍

[@acopsy88]

[@PremiumDetailingProducts]

Great work!

[@jdisdetermined]

Fun video, thanks Phil. Did she really bump you with the car or did you fake it? Hilarious either way. 😁 What kind of cord are you running on your Bigfoot? Did the OE cord wear out, or did you replace it from the start? Also, what extension cords do you use with polishers? I've heard a low quality extension cord can damage and wear out your polisher but never noticed a problem myself. I use middle of the road price wise because I'm OCD and toss them after a couple years. Plus the premium style extensions are thicker and heavier to pull around everywhere. 👍👌✌

[@MirandaDetailing]

Thanks!! Yeah she actually did! 😆. I relaxed the cord a while ago, it was cutting off while running it and Kevin Brown from Buff Daddy actually told me to replace it with a heavier gauge cord, the OEM ones tend to burn out quick he said. So I got an extra long 12 gauge extension cord and it was easy to replace it. It’s best to use 12 gauge cords for extension cords also. But now we use the SPTA cordless polisher. It’s amazing!

[@audieconrad8995]

Phil do you have any experience with a uro-fiber 50/50 pad and the Hybrid Solutions Ceramic Polish? I have used the Polish with the orange foam pad on many applications and have been pleased. I understand the uro pad is a step up in both cut & polish - 1&done(?) I have pads on order and am in anticipation of using them with polishes and compounds. Thx.

[@MirandaDetailing]

Hi. Oh yeah! It cuts more and does finish polishing well on most paint. On softer dark paint you will definitely still see some micromarring from the microfiber pad. But that’s easily removed with a soft foam pad.

[@paulhughes3961]

I'm new to using a DA polisher and was wondering when using foam pads you have to blow them out or rinse them out.

[@MirandaDetailing]

Hi when your polishing the vehicle i do blow them out after a panel or two. then at the end of the day i wash them all out like this..kzbin.info/www/bejne/l5yWm62joLqUaJI

[@shanesthedude]

Great video. Would this polish be okay to use by hand with just an applicator?

[@MirandaDetailing]

Thanks. Yes, absolutely

[@DeavenLaxton]

I did this on a black passat and the amount of residue was horrible. Looks like holograms everywhere. But when you wipe it the holograms go the other way. I had such a hard time finishing it. Pretty annoying. Its also black paint so theres that...

[@MirandaDetailing]

Sorry to hear that. Did you use a damp MF towel of a mist of water on the panel to wipe it and then use a dry towel after?

[@DeavenLaxton]

@@MirandaDetailing yes! Countless times. Its pretty weird. Plus it was clayed and iron deconned beforehand.

[@MirandaDetailing]

Strange... I mean it does leave residue but the directions say to just use a mist of water or damp towel and that works perfectly for me. How much of the product did you use for a section?

[@DeavenLaxton]

@@MirandaDetailing possibly 4 pea sized drops per section

[@MirandaDetailing]

Ok. Yeah that’s about right. Very strange....all I can say is keep experimenting with it to see if the damp towel method works. It could also be the paint. Some paints react weird to polishes.

[@lionelwilks7671]

When finish polishing, is a alcohol based wipe down necessary or u just go straight into the sealant ?

[@MirandaDetailing]

When you’re using a combo like this made from the same company, no, you don’t to because they are using the same formulas. But if you were using a different brand polish and then a different sealant, yeah I panel helps.

[@whitepowder8838]

Great Video of a entry level vehicle trashed paint from a trashed paint job. Thought you lose that MF cut pad for sure with paint tint transfer. Which cuts better 3D speed or TWHSCPW? Paint enhancement or a 3 step? LOL

[@MirandaDetailing]

Thanks. Yeah the pad cleaned out pretty good. But some tints like that will stain the pads. But that’s ok it’s just color. It’s hard to tell yet weather 3D Speed or Polish and Wax cut better. I’ll have to do more testing on more types of paints. Thanks!

Nice video. Since graphebe series is not available here yet, I thing to go with this hybrid polish. One thing I concern if the cutting ability of this enough to remove small love marks and swirls?

[@MirandaDetailing]

Hi, this polish is pad dependant which means when paired with a cutting pad or microfiber disc is has decent cutting power to remove light to moderate swirls and defects. When you need to polish with it you choose a polishing pad to refine.

[@TheOkinawaBoy]

@@MirandaDetailing Thank you. Since I’m not a pro and will be doing my two cars only, I don’t want to buy both Graphene polish and Hybrid ceramic. Which one you think is easier to use for moderate/good paint?

[@MirandaDetailing]

Hi. Both are easy to use. But since you can’t get the Hybrid Solutions Pro yet go with the original hybrid solutions polish and wax. Just remember to use a damp microfiber towel for the initial removal then a dry towel to buff.

[@faizzzzh]

Would you reckon using the polish first then the ceramic spray? or the other way around?

[@MirandaDetailing]

Yes use the polish and wax first. Ideally you want to wait 24 hours to let that cure before you put the ceramic spray coating on. But you can apply the spray coating right after you polish it if you want.

[@henryfreeman6113]

At 5:06 ish, why would you guys spray stoners trim shine on that small piece of plastic ?! It creates so much extra work because then you have to wipe the oily overspray and have to worry about it going even farther when it’s windy

Miranda Detailing ok cool!!

[@phf1179]

I’m with you Hank. Aerosol trim coatings get on areas not needed causing unwanted contact on painted surfaces and glass. Much of the product goes into the air and your lungs. If you decide to use an aerosol wear a mask like you would with a rattle can when you paint. Applicator type trim protection used after the paint correction and sealant would be the best procedure. Thanks for the review on the product.

[@jwill9877]

What's the reason behind washing the wheels after you wash car?

[@jwill9877]

And that car was obviously in a front end accident. In one of your shots at the begining of the video, the hood lines did not match up. They stuck out like a sore thumb. This car had a half @$$ paint job and in my opinion needed a light wet sanding before your correction. The reason you your pad was blue is not because it was a one stage paint job. It's because the clear was tinted to help blend the old finish to new finish. It's still a base coat clear coat finish.

[@MirandaDetailing]

It’s just our process. Everyone has their own way of doing things. Since we work together it’s fast this way for us.

[@MirandaDetailing]

Yeah probably it was in an accident. It was an ex cop car. Customer didn’t ask to have the headlights refinished. And it was single stage paint, not just tinted clear. But that’s ok...you aren’t here working on the vehicle to see what we see. Please refrain from just saying things that you think you see.

[@CMore2324]

Thats not a polish, if u want to correct use ultimate compound meguiars, after that use ultimate polish, THEN use ceramic wax by hand.

[@MirandaDetailing]

Why would you say that? It actually has micro polishing agents in it. It was designed to be used by hand and primarily with a DA polisher....not sure where you obtained your info...I've talked with the chemist myself...plus this is an enhancement not a correction, it removes 50% or so of the defects. I use this all the time in this way and it performs incredibly well.

[@CMore2324]

Miranda Detailing yeap, I mean this wax is for correct minor scratches or swirls, is like turtle wax color magic, 20 years ago wax an incredible wax, but it says polish as well, and color magic is more like a wax than a polish, is just for minor swirls

[@MirandaDetailing]

No it’s completely different technology. I never said it’s for paint correction. This is for paint enhancement. Which is for minor swirl removal. It does polish and remove swirls, not just covers them up. I’ve been testing this fir months now. Not sure where you are getting your info. Please do more research or try the product yourself.
