Best way to remove hybrid solutions and put a new coat on? I’m one of the dummies that assumed more was better and put too much on so there are streaks ect, I’d like to remove it all, clean it proper and apply a new coat. Can you please give me the steps and products to use? Clay bar, iron remover ect? Thanks in advance!
So what did they do with the remaining 1 million dollars? Call it a $100,000 base truck, cab and chassis. You have a glorified camper shell, lift kit, wheels and tires. Even if I grossly over value those, that's another $100,000. The tech could be really expensive but once again I'll grossly over it at another $100,000. So my question remains, where's the other million at??
1.3 Million Dollar 💵 Rip Off. It's similar to the 52 Million Dollar Homless Shelter in Victorville, California. Converted Storage Containers on 6 Acres. The Dollars 💵 Don't AD UP !!
It has always puzzled me why detailers choose practically new cars to display their detailing ability. I've always thought the newer a detailer can make an older car look is much more substantial.
True. The before and afters on older vehicles are great, but most people don't want to spend the money on their older vehicle. Most of our high end jobs are new vehicles, because the client just got it and wants to protect it.
This is a rabbit hole of a question and probably needs a separate video. If you are talking about coating wise, you need to wash, decon, and coat the vehicle. So at a minimum you need a car wash shampoo. Then an iron remover, a clay bar, and clay lubricant. Ideally I would like a polisher, but a polisher is not necessarily essential. You could make your own IPA and then obviously whatever coating you want to use. So that probably looks something like: 1.) Adams shampoo $14.99 2.) Carpro Ironx $23.57 3.) Chemical guys clay luber and clay bar $21.99 4.) Carpro cquartz coating $82.99 Total: $143.54 You would also need some adjacent tools like a pressure washer ideally and some microfiber towels, but just strictly speaking product wise this would be a starting point. Again probably needs its own dedicated video to explain a lot more.
Project Farm has a handicap as he is making quick video to a very large DIY audience. I avoid the use of 'wax' as a description as many older DIY have the concept of traditional wax which is time consuming to install and does not last (Texas heat kills). Sealants and ceramic infused work far better but not as long as a true ceramic 'COATING'. Thanks Austin for making this video and giving a professional commentary, hope more view and understand the concepts. Key take away is DIY'ers need to is that keep the surface clean with good wash methods and frequent use of light protection helps in the long term.
Loved hearing your thoughts on this. I tried the turtle wax hybrid solutions but can not say I am super happy with it. So the obvious questions is - what do you suggest for a 2013 Black Honda accord with high miles but has been garage kept most of its life? AND - I already clay barred and applied hybrid sol. so should I remove that and clay bar again to apply your suggestion? Thanks

Did you watch until the end? He suggests Carpro Cquartz. If you want to apply a new coating you'll have to strip what you put on (Strip wash, iron remover, Isopropyl alcohol) but if you just did it a clay and polish probably won't be needed.
@@patrickgagnon9662 Correct. I was just talking in terms of performance I think its more helpful for people to think about ceramic sprays as wax rather than as a ceramic coating.
Love you to. And correct, that is my bad. What I was more getting at is when you are leveling you are wiping away the carrier solvents of the ceramic coating.
Most of that stuff is S I o2. Iron first, then clay, then correct (if necessary) and polish.....check. The Turtle Wax? Excellent for a quick detailer product. Cera Koat? Good for matt plastic trim. F-11? The marketing is ominous and it's crap. Advance Graphene? Dunno, Adams is a quality coating but at a buck-n-a-half it's really pricey. Slickness? Good for customer smiles at the time of delivery. I'd much rather see legit ceramic coating products go head to head.
@@fortworthautodetail Thanks, I'll look into that vid. I have several cars I can coat and I have BC-7 in mind but I just wanna make sure it's got the protection. Protection? My wife was 42 when my son was born so it can be fleeting.
This is why you follow detailers who actually detail and who actually apply coatings...you can use the cheapest coating if you garage your car and drive it once a month..
F11 topcoat pro is incredible. And since a gallon of it is only $150, I have plenty of it left in case I need to re-apply. (2 years strong with perfect water beading) The inventor has the most advanced ceramic spray because 😂😂😂😂😂😂
As you know any company can name their product anything. Walk into a big box store go to the paint department. Epoxy fortified, polyurethane, and urethane. As you know all these products are two component. Cannot be bought at these stores.
I love Project Farm and Todd does a fantastic job most of the time. Sometimes Todd gets out of his lane as in this product comparison. Other tan the Adams these may be detail or sealant sprays. Check out the glass sealant / coating video and the best products weren't even tested.
@@fortworthautodetailIt’s not the camera so much as it is the lighting. You are back light and with nothing lighting your face. A simple soft light will go a long way.
@@fortworthautodetail remember is about the Quality of the light not always the quantity when lighting people. A ring light is what many use but that is not good for lighting faces when used wrong, which most do. Rather get a covering of some kind - normally a softbox which diffuses the light and spreads it out. hope that is helpful. Is there a decent ceramic coating under $50 or what do you use now? Thanks
@@shawnwright240 Got it. And probably not at that price point. Carpro Cquartz is the closest I see. You can pick that up from Amazon at $63. Its a solid choice. We use pro grade coatings. SystemX, diamondprotech, C6. Mainly we use SystemX. Have used it for years and love it. But one bottle alone of that stuff can cost $300 and have to be an authorized installer to purchase.
@@fortworthautodetail Not yet but am considering it for my next coating. I've only ever used the avalon king one, but I liked it. Have heard good things about poorboys too and it seems to offer a good value if it's still available at the prices I've seen before. But that's why I was curious to see if you had tried it. Keep the content coming, I just fond your channel!
Yea very familiar with avalon king. Probably the easiest coating I have ever used. It never had great durability though. We are currently test C6 diamond ceramic coating. We will see how that does. But yea don't really know much about poorboys.
I love Project Farm. Todd is extremely clever and finds great ways to test products. He was way out of his lane on this video, but that's okay, as no one can be a master of all trades.
Yes that can be fine, but you need to be sure the wax that you but on top of the coating is going to play nice with the ceramic coating. Sometimes the manufacture of the coating will sell a topper or there are other toppers out there that you can use. We use systemx renew or a combination of P&S beadmaker and dreammaker.
If you're referring to Qualbe, there were 10 Core Values and I committed them to heart. It was the best place I've ever worked, and the closest I've ever seen a company come to living their Core Values. For sure, it's the only company I've worked for that made sure to apologize and course correct anytime they didn't. I miss that place every day and I'm convinced I'll never find that kind of place ever again. 1.Respect People As Inherently Valuable 2. Form Clear, Open and Honest Relationships 3. Build Positive, Proactive and Loyal Teams 4. Be Innovative and Take Responsible Risks 5. Work Hard to Achieve Goals 6. Accomplish More With Less 7. Always Do the Right Thing 8. Be Humble 9. Be Teachable, Never Stop Learning 10. Have Fun
We are certified with a couple of different professional grade ceramic coatings. We use SystemX coatings primarily. This is their Max G+ coating. We have 3 levels so this is our top one. You can check out all of the different levels we offer on our website: www.fortworthautodetail.com/paint-correction-coatings/
The other factor would be color as well. More than likely a black vehicle is going to cost more than any other color just because it will probably require more paint correction work. This job was $2,899.
