All Steps SHOWN For 2 Step Correction - Very Trashed Paint! 

I actually enjoy your detailed explanations. Doesn't bother me not one bit! Great video!

Quick question how to remove the haze or like a cloudy clear coat that was laid on top and underneath it is clear I don't know if you want to stand what I'm saying it's like a cloud when you look down on the clear coat

Scott how do I attack an edge with a DA? Is it something I need to worry about?

Could you try this with DPC Flash?

how do like the Bauer polisher? I've heard mixed reviews on it..

Do you have any advice on foam pads that are delaminating, the felt on the pad itself coming off?. I'm using the Harbor Freight da and have tried a couple different pads. I tried the cheap Harbor Freight pads and they didn't last long at all. Tried the chemical guys and lasted almost the whole car, but still came apart on me. Also, I am using a medium pressure. Any thoughts? Thanks

Do you like the Jescar correcting compound better than Griot's Fast correcting cream? I'm doing a black BMW in a few weeks before the lease is up and want it perfect for my customer. Thanks in advance for any advice

Interesting that Esoteric and Scott do not agree on speed, blotting or grid patterns... but both use Sonax. One works on Exotic 3 million dollar cars and the other works on Camerys and Minivans. Interesting

BE the process Danny.

Anyone noticed the clouds moving pretty fast there :)

The level of information, mentorship and fatherly LOVE is so Freaking Awesome and inspiring. I once was too embarrassed and confusion about all the details of DETAILING. But Father Scott said "Just get out there & Polish something!" And so I did. Now, I have a crew of 20 detailers and Im carrying on with Father Scott's LEGACY of LOVE. Thanks MAN.

Can you wash, clay, compound, and polish your bald head for us? Thanks

Scott "ok let me lightly tap" (BANG BANG BANG BANG)

Thanks Scott for the info! This video is a keeper! P.s. that hood looks like it needs some chip repair (hint hint). Love ya man!

As a native New Yorker living in the south I LOVE listening to my native dialect! Good detailed instruction/instructor for a SUPER novice who's never considered washing her own car in the past and is now rebuilding a Mustang. Jescar and Sonax...here i come!

Lighting is everything, it almost looks perfect at the start but in the actual sunlight you will see swirls but it’s after it’s polished even to the minute scale it looks better and it’s all in the details where without the swirls the paint can truly be admired. I love your content keep it up

Great video. Rinse, wash, clay, decontaminate, step 1 with the Jascar/yellow pad, then step 2 with the Sonax/Rupes yellow pad. Thanks!

Hey thank you!! I learned so much from your videos! I have a 2000 Tacoma that I love and after watching your videos i cleaned the paint polished it, removed scratches and now the paint shines and the trim is a nice dark black! Looks better than when I got it over 10 years ago!

Scott, man of the people👍👍

Hey scott I love your videos, you don’t bs anything, very clear and to the point. I own my own mobile detailing business and your videos definitely have helped me improve. keep up the great work!

I’m 14 years old I’m trying to start detailing and paint correcting as a little side job with my dad and me

Great video as always. One question, do you change the pad after each section passes on the compound or polish ? What are the pad care actions you use to increase the pad's life?

I miss these videos from you, Scott. Nowadays it just feels like you're all about your products, which is great, but I miss your tutorials and your reviews on other products.

Your bald head shines better than that paint

Great video aginn Scott. What would you do next for a wax coating or sealant?

Great explanation, I've watched so many other videos that get so technical and fast paced that it actually put me off doing this, but this one was perfect, step by step without complication.. Thank you fot that, you got a new sub :)

What's with the thumbs down god some people just can't help themselves so called experts no doubt. Your videos are superb scott keep up the good work as an guy who in the last 2 year starting detailing your the go to guy I watch along with forensic detailing channel in the uk you both are very informative and helpful.

I wish someone would take the time to correct a black car, then drive it through the automatic car wash for science. Just to prove to everyone who swears by automatic car washes that they're actually medieval torture devices. I might have to do it. Love your videos Scott!

45 minutes to clay the whole car? You've been doing this for a bit huh? Very good video! Couldn't be explained any better man. Listen to this man people, get premium products. Cheap buffers seem cool when ur at the store but the amount of frustration they come with isn't usually featured on the box. Buy the tool once and take care of it.

Best video's I watch regarding any kind of detailing for automotive and reviews. I'd say your probably the best I've seen thus far!! Keep it up Scott!👍🏽👍🏽

Scott love the videos! Had a quick question when you do a 2-3 step buffing process do you compound every panel/section then proceed to step 2? Or or do you do both step on each section?

How do u clean those pads if I only have one and I wanna finish the the whole job in one day?

MY LITTLE SWEATY BALD HEAD 🤣🤣🤣🤣 PERFECT VIDEO !!!

Scott, I'm really taking in a lot of info from your videos, thank you! I do have a question regarding my black Harley Davidson Street Glide. My main concern is the tight curves, both concave and convex. I'm thinking a 3 inch pad may be the best size to go with. Do you have any tips for polishing out that paint?

Thanks Scott. I’m just a weekender doing my own vehicle. This video helped me a lot. I followed your directions and just took out a ton of scratches and deformities on a used truck I just got.

Hey Scott, after claying the part does 70% alcohol also work to get rid of everything left there? Thanks for reply!

OK.... as someone trying to definitively understand each CORRECT step-stop acting as though you shouldn't simply tell me the best product to use-when in other video's you tell that certain products are a waist! What De-greaser should I use? Or; if you wish-which should I NOT use!?

He's nice enough to share his knowledge with us, and your making fun of him? I think your upset because your Pinky is longer than your Johnston. Rick on Scott, your the "Goat."

I’m in Canada and have been a fine finish detailer for at least 25 years. Are you aware of some of the products here in Canada such as Frecla 3,6 and 10x also Maguires ultimate compounds. How do they compare to what you use?

What very important step did we miss here??? A little clue....IronX before clay.

No reason to dry the car after the wash and before the clay. Just wash the car, and rinse it. Then soap it all up again, and clay using the soap as your lubricant. Save your detailing spray.

I wish there was a video that showed how to use a DA on a surface that isn't flat. My hood for example has low sections that raise to a higher section, similar to this practice hood. This is a great video but seems incomplete without discussing the curves / angles.

Never Used Jescar products. My son and I detail on the side. We use a few of different products based on what type of car and what type of customer we have that respects the real quality of detail is about (You know what I mean). Any special distributor yuo can refer me to get and try Jescar products or other products you reccomend.

I have a new black truck but it does have spider web size scratches and super light swirls and water spot due to dealer doing a daily rinse with horrible drying. Would you recommend doing a clay and sonax super finish? Or what is a good polish to remove those small imperfections?

Are there any good car soaps, waxes, clay bars & car polishes free of carcinogenic & mutagenic chemicals that you know of, especially parabens, phthalates, sulfates, artificial colors & fragrances?

Your vids are 100% the beast on detailing, always look forward for more 🤙🍺🍺

I guess i need to charge a customer $400 for 2 step. This could take several hours!

Scott been buying a lot of products in the last year now have the AR Clean 1600 psi pressure washer but plan on moving out of state where brother lives in Texas and he told me he would help me with the detail stuff but eventually wanna work for myself doing it but plan on moving to Texas by the end of the year a long way from Michigan where live but am in a point of life gonna move on from Michigan plus want to go further with the auto detailing it will take a while to get really good doing it but am willing to put in the work to do it.

Nice head bro

Half a panel at a time I don’t get why people wanna buff small areas at a time gonna take you all day to buff one panel 😂

Dallas Paint Correction how do you remove black marks on the plastic part noticed that got them after using Adams Polishes iron remover should of taped it there on plastic but need to get these black marks off on the plastic I saw it was mostly on the right side close to the door.

i am also a painter...i could wet sand a lot of those scratches out,since from video many appear o be in clear,but without seeing hood in person not really sure ,but seriously i could prep and base /clear that hood in around 2 hours and hour if i was racing someone...

You’re not supposed to just make one way passes… you’re supposed to crosshatch your pattern. 3 passes side to side 2 up and down for 5 total passes to avoid buffer trails and for a more even finish

Hello Scott. I need and opinion. Can you advise me on which polisher is better. Griots boss 15 mm or the torq 15 mm da.

Mine isn't scratches but pewter color that is silver now i am hoping something can be done with it but question is will i get the pewter color back or will it remain as silver??

Thanks for breaking the process down simply. What I really need is directions to get rid of the rated out clear coat and restore the paint then re-learn. If anyone has suggestions/directions to videos or whatever, I'd appreciate it.

That panel you said should not have been compounded how come? Also those huge scratches if a customer brought you their car like that is that possible to remove or they would have to get it repainted?

Great video, but I will say when you showed your face I thought you was Joe Rogan 😂💯💯

I counted five steps

Thanks for the EXTREMELY informative videos Scott. I'm a car enthusiast and would really prefer to do my own paint correcting rather than taking it to a "detailer". I hope that you won't mind answering a question. 1. Can a 6" compact palm polisher be used rather than the larger type that you use in your videos? I bought one today before watching your videos, because I have a non-orbiting variable speed 7" polisher and I'm scared to death of damaging my paint using it. Though I have no problem spending the $70.00 for a orbiting variable speed polisher; Is it a must have to get good results? Thanks again, Liked and Subscribed.

Hello youtube fans of scott. Have you noticed that he's not interested in answering our inquires. Hummmm

Question.. probably a dumb one but the scratches are impossible to take out?? It would need a repaint?

So... I know you said hopefully it doesn't a lot.... but what if my car does look like this?

Good video indeed. It’s funny that you call it a 2 step paint correction, but there is a bunch of steps in the process.

Why when I can just pay you to do it...

How is this on blue metallic that's 11 years old and needs some wet sanding down as I have rock chips?

Black paint is the worst to correct and to be honest only trianed professional detailer or body shop should do paint correction I have seen many detail shops destroy cars paint

Stupid question here, but does the Sonex polish take place of wax?

Thank you so much for your invaluable information, highly appreciate it, keep it up the outstanding job, have a great day.

Hey Scott.When and do you do a strip was or is that the very first step before everything is to be done

So only do one section at a time? Or stick with a 24 in x 24 in area and do all the steps then repeat for the next area?

so thats called a snake pattern with 50% over lap? seems to be a nice way to work a panel...thax

How much would you charge for this type of 2 step work on a whole car? Mid size car

Scott i am curious how you feel about ceramic coatings or have you ever made a video expressing your likes or concerns about them. Like you i really enjoy maintaining the paint on my wife, kids and own vehicles. And periodically polishing if needed follow by a sealant at the change of seaons here in illinois. I know that coatings takes the fun out of it

Scott your videos have allowed me to restore 2 of my vehicles to a new shine!! Thank you. When you did this demo you did not go down to the very front edge of the area (bottom 2"). Would you handle that section differently on an actual car? Thanks again for the awesome tutorials.

This hood is actually in a better condition than my 2007 BMW 325i

Black paint makes me for fffing sweat and my motorcycle is all black!!!

So is this what paint correction is? Cleaning it, then compounding it, them polishing it?

Wudder?

Scott, I really want to thank you for your very informative videos. I have been very intimidated and just not comfortable attacking the paint on my cars (i'm 54 yo) after watching your videos I picked up a HF da polisher and some griots orange and red pads. I have a 12 yo Ford Truck that is going to a new owner and figured I would see what I could do. I went with your 1.5 step with griots fast correcting cream and hd speed. The truck is white and l cant believe the outcome. Not only am I no longer intimidated but I am excited to see what else I can do. I appreciate your approach and you have saved me a lot of money not buying into the buying products hype that is everywhere. Thanks

Watch at playback speed 0.5x sounds like a drunk Ray Romano

When u polish aren’t u supposed to go on a crosshatch pattern?

One thing I LOVE about detailing cars is the customer is ALWAYS pleased with the results when polishing / correcting work is paid for. So many people neglect their cars paint they don't even know what it's supposed to look like anymore. Great video!

Hi Scott new subscriber here from the uk..I'm a detailing enthusiast and loving your vids . Your helping me along my journey to improving my skills. 👍

Can one pad be used for the whole car? How best to clean out the product buildup on the pad? Can I use a toothbrush?

Is there a good reason why you used a Jescar compound and not a Sonax compound?

Looks like a scratched mirror. I wish you would really have correct it.

Who whistling it is so disruptive... to the video.. no need for that.!

Great video! Thanks I just received some speed 3d today!

I bought cut max rather than perfect finish. Wrong link bro

If I can’t get these products in the U.S. what are the alternatives ?

Do I need to use iron and tar remover before I polish? Or can i just use a clay bar? Also is there anything special soap to use for this?

love video.ive been using 4 over a year.i knew u used sonax from ur pod cast.love sonax.careful ur running out of tips and secrets...lol.b well

So when do you take out the tar and iron removal befor claying right.

What’s the difference between polishing or waxing?

Damn this panel does no justice to his work lol , that thing needs new paint

This guys amazing he's actually don't to the tea with the info

so in this case with that hood specifically do you do a 3 step? cut, sand, repaint?

Well done Scot wonder ful job Please talk it doesn't bother

Do you have to use alcoholto remove the oils after u polish then put a coating?
