I need to try Ultra Cut. Reflect is absolutely my favorite polish!

@SkyCarCare 2 года назад

Tadman!!! Its really a job well done on Ultracut. I think you will like it.

@mrek2068 Год назад

Your videos are truly outstanding - very informative, clear, and professional. I am going to ceramic coat my new dream car soon, as I always do. My paint only has small swirls, but as it is my dream car, I would like to get it as perfect as possible. I use all Car Pro products and wondered if it would be OK to use Ultra Cut, then Reflect before going into the IPA and ceramic coating stages.

@SkyCarCare Год назад

Thank you so much! We really appreciate that. Yes, that is a great plan EXCEPT you might not need the Ultracut. Go to the worst area of your paint and try a section using the Reflect and it MAY remove the swirls without having to cut deeper. If not then you will know to do the car or at least the swirled section with Ultracut first. if Reflect works on its own then you will be able to save some of your clear coat and not cut as much off with a heavier compound than needed. Best, Corey

Awesome video valuable information especially for a noob like me! I’m new to detailing, especially polishing. I have some small spots of light/moderate oxidation on my bumper, so I cleaned it and tried hand polishing using Fixer and a foam pad, but I’m pretty sure I overworked it or something because after some time the oxidation got worse and those spots appear darker/matte. Did I eat through my clear coat? Should I have started with something less aggressive?

@bosoares 3 года назад

Essence is my favorite finishing polish, especially because I always top it with UK 3.0. So nice to use. Essence Plus on the other hand, is a dud in my opinion. I've tried it on several coated cars that had light marring or swirling, it didn't do anything to fix those and it delivered reduced hydrophobic behavior compared to leaving the coating alone. After a handful of attempts and seeing it just can't do anything for me, I threw my bottle in the trash. I have yet to try one of the compounds as I've only used from other brands but I've heard good things about Ultracut.

Hi, great video! Thanks! I am a DIY detailer... I am planning for a complete paint correction on my 2019 Renault Grand Scenic. I have a cordless SPTA DA machine with medium & light cut pads & Ultracut. What would you recommend on pads & compounds? I tried a little for testing, the paint seems a hard one. Do you recommend Ultracut then Reflect to finish? Thanks man.

@SkyCarCare 2 года назад

a REALLY popular compound by one of our local pros is Ultracut and then following up with either Reflect or Essence Extreme. In regards to pads, we could make recommendations, but we would try with the light and medium ones you have first! Just so you aren't buying extra pads if those can do the job with the recommended polishes.

@nadeemanjam1 2 года назад

Hi. I have a new car which is two years old, it don't have any swirl marks. If I want it to shine more, should I use Essence polishing, before applying UK 3.0? And can Essence be used by hand instead of machine. Thanks for a great video

@SkyCarCare 2 года назад

Hi Nadeem, Thank you! Yes, you should use Essence or Reflect. You should also use Eraser after polishing and before coating. Yes, you can user by hand but use very little product and it is more work by hand.

Love your content man! I'm looking to correct very light swirls on my extremely thin and soft Japanese paint and am considering trying Carpro essence before coating it. I Dont have a lot of clear coat to work with. Do you think the essence would be suitabe for this? Would it be mild enough or would it be better to go for some Scholl s30/s40? Are you able to help me?

@SkyCarCare Год назад

Essence is definitely mild enough but do a test section first to make sure you are getting the finish you like. The S30 should also work (with DA polisher) no problem. If you are using rotary then use S40.

@TheNekstOne Год назад

@@SkyCarCare Thanks for the advice buddy! I do remember you mentioning s30 is better paired with a DA and s40 is slightly better suited to a rotary in your Scholl concepts video..

Sky's the limit car care, just wondering I heard the best combo is carpro reflect and carpro essence Plus and then c quartz 3.0 UK what are your thoughts? Thanks again

@SkyCarCare 2 года назад

So essence plus is a product that goes on top of a coating. Or to be used a standalone sealant. Regular essence or reflect or excellent products to use as a finishing step before coating. The difference is that Regular Essence will contain fillers while reflect will be a true finish. Either of those products will work well. Then just IPA Wipedown and you are ready to use the coating. From there. If you need to repair your coating, you would use Essence Plus.

@Toosmoothtolose Год назад

Will i be able to use stack Essence ,Essence plus, and Scholl Concepts W6 black wax on top?

@SkyCarCare Год назад

CARPRO has not tested it with every coating out there but a lot of people do use it with other ceramics as well. If you want to be 100% sure then do a panel wipe between the Essence and the coating.

@@user-bf6go9nf6g If there is no concern of dust then IPA wipe right after polishing the car. If there is a concern of dust then you could wait till next day so you don't have to wipe twice but theoretically the longer the oils sit there the harder they are to come out of the paint completely.

Hi Can I use clearcut with MF pad and finish with essence and gloss pad? I try to find good combo.

@SkyCarCare 2 года назад

Depending on the how much correction the vehicle needs that could be a good combination. Clearcut finishes down pretty well, but you may need to use a pad a little more aggressive than a gloss pad with the essence in some cases. In regards to the 2 liquids though, thats a good combination to start out with. Then just adjust the pads as needed depending on the how perfect of a finish you are looking to achieve.

It would be good if you matched the pad to the polish for us.

@SkyCarCare 13 дней назад

Happy to help Randy! First thing to know is that depending on the goal you can pair nearly any pad with any compound. But lets back up.... a finishing pad like the Gloss pad would be used with the least agressive pads. As you can see and is mentioned in the video we have everything displayed in the order form LEAST agressive to MOST agressive. So, Gloss pad with Essnce or Refelct, Polishing pad with Fixer or Clearcut or Ultracut, Flash Pad or Microfiber pad or Wool pad with Clearcut or Ultracut. I hope that helps!

@user-bf6go9nf6g 2 года назад

Hello, a great video! I have a Tesla model 3 that’s two years old and has developed some light wash induced marring. I was thinking I would do a light polish with Essence and then top with a ceramic spray sealant. Or, would I be better off using Essence Plus to fill rather than abrade? Also, how long would I have to wait after applying Essence before I could top it with a spray sealant. Thank you so much!

@SkyCarCare 2 года назад

Thanks P! Well, you could go either route... The easiest option would be to wash, decontaminate, dry, and then apply Essence PLUS. This will fill the micro marring some and last up to a year but if you want to fully remove the micro marring then the Essence on a Honey Spider pad or a medium foam pad or microfiber finishing pad will be better to remove the minor damage. You could apply your spray sealant after 1 hour but even better to wait longer if possible. If it can sit 24 hours overnight before applying sealant then that is optimal but not necessary. Especially since sprays do not last that long and you will be re-applying it occasionally anyway. Hmmmm actually maybe best is to do the Essence and then follow with Essence PLUS if you want the 12 months durability still... Just depends on what you want to do.

@cleanboujeeautodetailing2169 Год назад

Hi there! I just watched you video and wanted to get your expert advice. I am debating between purchasing Essence and Reflect. Which one would you recommend and which one in your opinion is better between the 2?

@SkyCarCare Год назад

That's really tough because it depends on what your goals are among other things. If you want t pure polish then go with Reflect. If you want some filling ability or have a difficult paint then Essence. I prefer Reflect on medium hard to hard paints.

@cleanboujeeautodetailing2169 Год назад

Could you use essence on soft paint with a finishing pad? Say Rupes ultra fine white pad to finish down with essence?

@SkyCarCare Год назад

@@cleanboujeeautodetailing2169 Yes sir, you can use Essence to good effect on nearly every soft paint. With regards to the pad, the softest pad is not always the best option for soft paint (as contradictory as that may sound). You can use Essence with a Rupes white pad but if it doesn't work great then try a slightly stiffer pad like a Honey Spider pad type foam density.

@marios8593 3 года назад

Great video! What combo would you recommend to remove a ceramic coating?

@SkyCarCare 3 года назад

Great question Mario! Short answer is Clearcut and an orange polishing pad BUT the long answer is the more important one... Really it depends on a lot of factors! As follows: 1. - What coating 2. - How many coats 3. - How long it has been cured on the paint 4. - What your intent is in "removing" the ceramic coating With regards to items 4... The reason I say this is because in 99% of the cases you do not need to remove the coating but rather simply treat it as if there was no coating there at all. In other words -> Select a combination that will remove whatever damage (spots, swirls, etc) you wish to remove. If there is no damage and you simply wish to add another coating or something else or just wish to polish it anyway, then the combo would be Reflect or Essence and Gloss pad or something light like that depending on the paint your working on.

@SkyCarCare 2 года назад

Hi Gabriel, that depends on how deep your swirl marks are. I would not recommend using a rotary tool without learning how to use it first on a junk panel. Also, wool bonnets are way to aggressive for regular swirl marks and you can switch to a foam pad with some CARPRO Ultracut to easily remove them. Which foam pad depends on how deep the marks are.

@@SkyCarCare So typically all that is needed for prepping a brand new car for a ceramic coat (UK 3.0 and SiC2, and two teslas) is Essence with an orange pad? No need for clearcut/ultracut/fixer/cutting pads? Assuming cars have no deep scratches of course.

@SkyCarCare Год назад

@@stevenromero4882 Great question, well... it depends on other things as well. Generally speaking you need to remove all the contaminants before you put a polish and pad to it in order to have a really clean surface. If it was just painted brand new and still at the factory and had not been transported then yes you could just use Essence to remove and holograms from the painter and then Eraser and then coat. But if it is transported then it can pick up a lot of rail dust. moving forward from that... if the car has much mileage or years on it or lots of contaminants from highway driving then it should be prepped really well. I.e. clayed before the Essence step and depending on oxidation may require a heavier cut (or if deeper swirls like you said also) before the Essence. After the Essence, Eraser, and then coat

Could be the way CARPRO classifies it vs the way we classify it as well as the fact there is a lot of overlap from polishing to cutting. In my opinion this pad certainly overlaps.

So many companies use buzzwords to sell their products that some are not even ceramic even if they use the word ceramic. Some are not even coatings even if they use the word coatings.
