  • Do you know how to fix deep scratches without having to repaint at a body shop?

    Some idiot keyed my passenger door 3 times....

  • @game2heart

    It really depends on how deep the scratch is - can you see primer through the paint colour. If you want a definite opinion then email a picture in or come by and visit us in Sydney.

    Otherwise get a big dog and train him to bite strangers near your car - there are some idiots with no respect out there!

  • Would I still need to clay bar before polish if my car is brand new and the paint is silky smooth?

  • @game2heart

    If your paint is absolutely silk smooth then no. But to check put a plastic bag over your hand (one from the supermarket) and feel the paint. The bag 'amplifies' the touch sensors in your fingers so you can really feel if there is something there. A lot of new car do have contamination from sitting in holding yards and shipping yards, especially European ones coming to Aus

  • @daddylionn I paid 34$ after taxes for one in canada, 20 in america give or take for a palm polishing one, I use it for electric guitars but for cars and any other project by all means even a 6 inch radius-ed one by Simonize or anything is worth the buy.

  • @australia0199 I purchased the RO kit used in the video and it was approx $260 which included all the pads and compounds. The results are phenomenal.

  • What do you guys reckon of those Ozito high speed orbital buffs? Any good?

  • can you give me the details of this polishing machine please? The detailing is always expensive cause it takes time but there isn't much to it. I can do this when I have some free time during weekends. Thanks for your help.

  • so in order of sequence, what did you use? i.e. cut then polish...?

  • Nice vid! What song is this by the way?

  • NEVER AGAIN THOSE DRIVE -THRU CAR WASHES!!! :(

  • @CarCareProducts Yea it took the paint off some parts and I got most of the lighter parts out with rubbing compound and polish. It's so true. People have no respect for nice cars, either they're jealous or what. The car they scratched is a 2002 Toyota Sequoia and I just got done washing, clay barring, waxing, and tire shining the week before.....
