Teaching a NOOB Paint Correction/ Rotary Polisher!! Full 2 Step Correction On Black Paint!! 

Great job! Making the best of what you have is a worthwhile goal.

I'm very proud of Brian number three. Worked the rotory like a champ. Go team Apex!

Another great video Brain and that’s one very lucky young man to have you as a mentor

Your a awesome coach brain ..👍

What’s your recommendation for a mild compound?

Excellent video Here!!!! He's lucky he has the legendary Brian for 1 on 1!! I'm jealous 😁 he did a great job👌👍

2nd!!!!!!

All the kids around my block have asked me to teach them and I always let them have a go with my machines. Where the community centers fail to teach, I pick up the slack and show them the way. All thanks to you prof.

Hands on is the best experience, thank you Brian for another great video.

Excellent video Brian, seemed his process changed dramatically with a good hands on approach and a great teacher. Thanks for all your hard work and great content.

Awesome videos, I'm learning a lot thank you. What backing pad do you use on the Rotary in this video, or do you recommend another one.

Teaching him the fundamentals that will stay with him for life. Doing the job right the 1st time. Great video Brian.

Awesome video and tutorial good friend. Kid did a great job. B well good friend

I can already tell we need this to be a recurring series. Incredible Work as always Mr. Brian and Friend. 👍

Your best teacher is your last mistake. Good job letting them know what it’s like to burn the clear.

Awesome vid 👌

I cannot stress how helpful this video has been. I've been avoiding paint correction because it looked like an annoying, extremely time consuming and tedious process, but this gave me the confidence to dive in on an old beater in my drive way, and I'd never thought to ask a body shop for trash panels! I really like how straight forward and pragmatic this channel is compared to a lot of other detail channels. Thank you for making this video!

So no sandpaper cut just wool pad? Thanks.

Nice job for a first timer lots more knowledge to come

He did a great job. You can tell he was nervous the first go around on the horse but he picked it up. The car came out amazing. Great job other Brian

I think this was a really good video. The fact that we get to see how it is for a beginner to start out is very educational. It is a fantastic way to understand a bit of the things you encounter when you are new. It will be a nice series to watch your protege take steps forward. It is a way for you to answer some of the questions that comes up. You are a great teacher!

Nice job! Your a fantastic teacher! He’s a lucky man! 👍

I really hope that kid knows how lucky he is. If he does, then in a decade he’ll be a beast.

One very lucky young man, to be taught by a master detailer in Brian. How many low lint cutting pads, did you use on the car Brian?

Excellent video and you are a great teacher ✊

Great job kid! Enjoy learning from the best. That’s how I learned but only virtual. Absorb Everything you can!

Acceptance of the fact that it can't be made perfect in order to preserve the clearcoat's properties is something I would never have known or realized. Thanks.

Great content, keep it up.

Great video. I’ve only used the DA but this video has given me the impetus to try a rotary. Am going to pick up a test panel at a local body shop to practice first though. Thank you Brian.

here before the title changes 😄

Thanks for sharing. I have recently acquired a '04 PT Cruiser GT that was sitting abandoned in the Florida sun. It was very dirty (from rain I presume), so I washed and clay barred it. The paint is now smooth but still has what appears to be pitting in the clear coat. I tried doing some oxidation removal with my 20 year old cheap Craftsman orbital buffing machine and the first of the three steps of Meguiar's clean-polish-wax package, but it had little impact after making 3 passes with just the cleaning solution. From the limited results, I presume the cleaning chemical has lost its efficacy and/or is probably is not harsh enough to begin with. Thus, I've acquired some "Diamond Cut" grade cutting compound and bought a cheap rotary machine from Harbor Freight. Given my power upgrade, I guess I'm wondering at which point I should stop as I'm trying to clean up the clear coat pitting and how to tell if the damage to the clear coat is not repairable or into the base paint. I am prepared to resort to wet sanding and repainting/coating if need be, but I honestly cringe thinking that I might have to resort to more drastic measures, especially if the job doesn't warrant it. Any advice?

You are a great teacher brian, that young man is very lucky to have you there teaching him, he did an excellent job for the first time

lol I would be freaking terrified honestly to jack up some poor guy’s paint as a noobie.

Your videos are wonderful! It’s so easy to watch for hours. Im repairing some light CC scratches on a hood. I will be wet sanding to 2500 grit. Small area repair. What pad and compound would be best for a Dewalt, 5” hook and loop da sander?

I learned something new also and I've been doing it a while. I like how he applied the compound on the panel with a pad instead of with the machine. I'm gonna try that .

Very lucky young man

We need more videos like this! Actually shoeing beginners going through the different situations

Great information .

He did a great job because he had a great teacher. Thanks for the awesome informational video

looks absolutely great!!

I just picked up a 13 Acura TL. I've never encountered paint this hard. I'm using Sonax CutMax with MF cutting, on a rotary. Its ridiculous, and a huge pain. I will try spreading it out by hand tomorrow then using the machine.

Wish I had a shop that would take me in as a apprentice to learn this skill I’m a week end hobby guy. I try to keep my vehicles looking good. Recently purchased a Tahoe I couldn’t turn down but the black paint has swirls and baby scratches.

Thanks Brian again

Rotary's. WAY faster. I use a orbit to mainly light polish-cleaner wax-sealant's after. Ever use a SIOUX from the '60's?

I was surprised how fast it burned through the paint on that test panel wow!

Nice Job, NOOB!

I am looking at a Rotary Polisher. I am looking at one's from Rupes, Maxshine and Shinemate. Could you make a few recommendations please?

That was awesome did a great job and Brian on your part great as usual.

Hi had new hood painted and installed by body shop. Black in color. By the eye looks great but with light shining on it fine scratches throughout. Will polishing with rotary machine take those out? What steps should I take. Thank you

Hi Brian and thank you for the video! 👍 One question. You always say your speed setting is between the 3rd and 4th speed... But how many rpm's is this? As we all know it differs from polisher to polisher. On the Flex PE 14-2 150 it will be around 1200 - 1500rpm, on the Maxshine it will be much higher... so whats your recommendation on the exact speed in rpm's?

Didn’t use a wax or sealer to protect the polish? Is that not needed ?

I wanna do this but sadly at my age (early 30's) I'm not sure how to start in it. I did 1 time interview for a mobile cleaning thing but it felt sketchy and it was 100% commission

Great video

Hello I just want to ask this why when I polish or buff the chemicals always splash everywhere even though im following the needed pressure and rotational speed.

why does the colour disappear after being washed or rain after I've corrected a scratch. Wet sanded - Angelwax fine compound polish finished....it looks great but as soon as I wash the car or after it's been raining the colour washes off the worked area. What am I doing wrong or do I need to clear coat the worked area....

Can you tell me who's coating thickness gauge you use? Do you recommend it? Thx. Great info thank you

Great job

Fortunate guy to have such a tutor.

What causes the polisher to wobble and jump around? It does that on my car especially on the roof. Feels like the paint is uneven

What is the backing plate and the pad you are using on the rotary? Also, you always say speed 3 or 4 on the rotary, what is that in RPMs for the ones that don't have the 1-5 numbers?

I've purchased a eurofiber 50/50 pad what size backing plate should be used with it thanks

Question, why use the rotary and not a DA machine? Sorry Im new on this. Love your videos and explanation.

Use the Force young Jedi! Outstanding Brian!

Brian, Great video as always. He did a great job!

Hi Brian, what am I doing wrong with my rotary that I keep getting holograms? So I have to switch to my dual action for now.

Biggest question..... What does the Shop Manager have to say? 😂

Will you always get hazing or hollowgramming with a rotary and can that be taken out with a rotary and foam pad? Thx

Worst thing to do. Washing your car under the sun Thank god I have a place with a big enough garage to wash my car inside. Hated washing outside.

i am in the market to start paint correcting my car but im more of a weekend warrior type. Would it be better to get a detailer to do it or just go get the supplies myself and only work on the 2 cars i have in my garage?

Amazing video mate. Would love to see more videos like this teaching other detailing skills

All best guys i know use rotary still. It's funny how the famous on RU-vid don't use it 😂 🤣

beautiful

Is that einhell polisher? I have the same and its heat a lot. I bought also dewalt and am way more satisfied How u doing u with the einhell?

Was he priming the panel using a microfibre pad before polishing? That's a great idea

Very knowledgable mentor. I learned this the hard way. I remember how i ate the paint when i was doing an edge. 😂

Always the knowledge shared is priceless. Thank you

Way to go teaching Brian right, Brian! 👍🏼👍🏼

Well done young man.

Great job where does it come in to play with the harder soft clearcoat and how did you make the decision on what cream and pad to use

Great job Rookie! Love that gloss!

I wanted to polish my truck Victory red color what compound or wax should i use?

I'm relatively new to the channel, about 4 months now, and I'll tell ya, you're giving me the necessary confidence to correct my car. I'm in the Facebook group as well and have so many questions to ask. Thank you for all these videos.

Excellent tutorial!

Awesome hands on training, and a very fast learner too.

A very lucky young man to have you as his instructor!

Do you always compound or do you sometimes go directly to polishing?

what grit sandpaper was used on the headlights? ive tried and just cant get to be clear!

What grit sandpaper did you use on the headlights

Great video man. Love how thorough, detailed and patient you are. Great stuff man!

So for this process what creams/solutions do you use ?

I noticed the pad is larger than the backing plate. Why is that?

Did he ever say what kind of wool pad that was on the rotary at 6:00?

Kid doesn't shave but he's already got some serious tattoos 😂.

Hey this was over a year, is there a link to his updated video?

What is the best cutting compound to use with a rotary

looks good Brian do you do teaching also????

Sound of polish​er got feeling pressure​.

Man I’ve seen so many bs videos with people using lil 4 inch Dual Actions and how they talk about rotary’s are “dangerous” and “hard to use” but my pops taught me about the makita with a wool pad for cutting instead of those incredibly hot foam pads, the only thing I’d point out to you is you should get a rotary with a slow start function and put your compound into a ketchup bottle and squirt it directly into the paint you can learn how to pick up the compound or polish with the pad and the sling will only come from attempting to pick up all the liquid at once instead of slow incorporating it into the pad.

I'm going to try to do it in my st.

I volunteer my car to be used fo teaching purposes! Lol (I laugh but I’m serious)
