Yet another all you need to know detailing video. A simple but affective way of showing other valeters how to approach each situation. Well done David.
@@epicautomotivedetailing can I ask your honest opinion, what’s your thoughts on Diamondbrite or similar? Is it really worth it as thinking of getting it done? Cheers
Great video Dave. Very valid points you made about scratches. If the scratch is through the clear coat, no matter what compound, polish or machine is used the scratch will remain. A cheap temporary fix to help disguise a scratch that has gone through to the primer, is to use a crayon pencil. Of course that fix will be very temporary.
Hi Dave. Another great video. I have seen used car sales guys using products like this to remove scratches. Even if it lightly disguises the scratch, thats good enough to get it off the forecourt. The general public however, may have unrealistic expectations to what they can achieve with this system, and as you have pointed out, thats when the problems start. I look forward to your next video.
Hi dave I love auto glym products, they are so easy to use, If I can't remove a scratch I just bring the car to my brother he's a panel beater and he fixes most things for me 👍👍👍👍
great & fun video Dave, we all know real men prefer to hand polish (in full summer sun of course)! 😉 I use the Chem Guys hex pads (3 pack), and Meg's Ult Compound & Polish, hard work but worth it in the end. Would be cool for you to consider the opposite, and have a video look at a starter DA machine polisher, to save the post hand-polish aches & pains the following day.
Awesome advice and very well documented in a step by step guide , I’ve got some light scratches on my A-3 S line and that product is the very thing to remove them 👍
Also worth pointing out that, when you machine a deep scratch, it knocks off its sharp edges. This makes it much harder to see unless the light is just right (or do I mean just wrong? xD). Again, not exactly a remover but a damn good disguise!
Thank you Daniel. I Think they put dates down to the molecular structure changing over time for example some products can separate in the cold so they wont work as well and some products have raw materials in so over time they could potentially diminish slightly.
@@epicautomotivedetailing I once found a discarded litre bottle of Scholl S30 (pre-Plus) where the expiry date was June 2012. After a good shake, it worked perfectly. I used it on a 2009 Ford Transit Connect which as you know is one of the best vans. Used by DA on speed 4 with a red LC Hydrotech pad the pale green paste finished into a clear polishing liquid and never dusted. It's a real shame they are so expensive.
Superb mate!! I’ve got a proper light scratch on my fuel cap which is doing my head in!! I’ll try this stuff, hopefully it’ll work!! Also, does the resin polish remove wax which is already on my car?
Hello mate, yes it will remove the wax as it's an all in one in reality but it has its own agents to re protect it after. Albeit short term protection so ceramic spray is always a good shout on top 👌
Really sound advice there from the legend, I think autoglym have got some good stuff although i think they need to consider revising some of thier pricing, UHD wax for example
Can I use the scratch remover compound on the whole car as a "deep cut" and then polish off after with the srp and then finish with a sealent such as gloss protection
How would this scratch remover compare to t cut ? I've got sponges, cloths and wax polish,already, can I use t cut, and save some money ? Or wouldn't you recommend it.??
Have you tried the turtle Wax scratch remover. I would love to see how they compare. And I must say I use some of auto Glym's products but been a new starter it's hard to see big results from there products. And when you buy trade from them the name is different on the bottle which confuses me straight away when I find a product I like then the name changes so I don't know if it's the same or different.
i wish the sponge was black color...white does gets stain and it is pretty obvious...perhaps that is the purpose for it...to expose the stains...anyway...the sponge is beautiful...i just do not have the heart to stain it...😅
@@AutoglymUK How does the Scratch Remover compare with your Professional-line Rapid Renovator Plus, as that's always what I have to hand for the same thing?
@@owensteele1274 It is different. Although both have diminishing abrasives, Rapid Renovator Plus needs the speed and heat of a machine to get the abrasives to break down, Scratch Remover Compound will work by hand. If you used it in a machine it would break down far too quickly. hope that makes sense.
Hello first of all well done and respect 👏. 2nd I started with a pedal bike and a trailer and you can still offer a good service. But hard graft pedalling everywhere
My honest review after using it on the same level of scratches as shown in this video. It does not work for anything other than a thumb rub scratch no point in spending the money when you could have just licked your finger and got rid of it like that 😂
