[@nadirkhan7552]

After watching these one on one videos I've actually noticed that it really works. It's like one of us there asking all about the process on every step. Rather than a detailer talking to the camera and later answering tons of our questions in the comment section. Good Job guyz 👍🏻 Have a great day, love from another part of the 🌍🇵🇰

[@lightningsmokerXx]

Scott is such an unsung hero of the detail world.

[@georgemyers6518]

Scott,you’re a very good instructor. You explain everything very thoroughly. Alex is an eager to learn student also. Women are so much easier to teach because they listen closely and they’re not afraid to ask questions. She’s going to be a dynamite detailer

[@dallaspaintcorrectionautod8343]

i think you bring up a good point, guys can learn as well obviously but women are very detailed to begin with. You ever watch them get ready in the morning..lol..they love the details

[@papabigly]

Great to see you back with this series, Scott! Keep 'em coming!

[@erinfurr4500]

I like your older solo videos but I like adding a sidekick to show inexperienced people that they can do this too 👍

[@jfcarwashbn3050]

Even there's Alex in the video, but the way you teach her, feels like you are teaching me face to face as well. Keep it coming scott. I saw your comment regarding alot of claybars at your stock, which do u recomend? Keep it up scott! Much love from Brunei 🇧🇳

[@CountyCorral]

Instead of buying mass amounts of spray detailer just buy a bottle of ONR and and add a few ounces to a 32oz spray bottle with distilled water. Also use it as a drying aid after washing in the sun!

[@dallaspaintcorrectionautod8343]

i will show her all the tricks soon, just keeping it basic for now

Need to work on that clay bar technique Alex, if she drops the clay throw it away.

[@romansrealm1164]

If it was a black truck would you have used a different clay bar on it so one would not see the marring from the clay bar? Do they make fine and course grade clay bars and if so does one know which one to use? Thank you

I never understood why when people "clay" they do not lay down a beach towel or plastic incase the clay hits the ground.. I use a nanoskin towel and i drop it all the time

not as mush as the clay bar will and we typically use the bag in a few small areas just to check..like i said in the video a pro can tell without using a bag..the bag test helps beginners to understand what we are trying to remove

[@8516brian]

Wow, I really hit a nerve. Labelling that fine woman as a bimbo wasn’t fair, and I apologize to her if she’s aware of this controversial thread. I’ll conclude this ongoing rant with the following comments: (1) Scott has an excellent channel; (2) His sidekick’s credentials are irrelevant; (3) I’m not the one who chose to parade this beautiful, provocatively dressed woman, in front of the camera as a prop. Do you honestly think that Scott’s subscribers give a crap about the subtle art of washing a car? If they’re watching, they’re watching her. Maybe you should respond to some of their comments; (4) I resent your comments about my level of physical fitness. I’ve worked hard to look like the typical detailer, with the exception of Darren Priest. Now that guy’s in shape.

[@carlosb1]

You can use those thin bags you put your veggies and fruits in from the market. They work great. Also remember that clay only saves off the fallout, so even after you use the clay bar and feel the pain smooth does not mean the fallout is gone. Thh clay bar just smoothed it out, Use fallout spray along with clay for better results.

[@Jeff_Seely]

Dude she did better than me , my first time. I dropped one of the two mothers claybars right in the dirt. That'll piss you off🤣
