Garry Dean Quality!
Wow, if nothing else I think that demonstrates that an aggressive clay shouldn't be taken lightly. I'm not sure if I was more horrified by the overspray or by the paint after claying!



Nice save, though.
 
Very nice work Garry, I hate claying and seeing that overspray made me cringe! I'm sure the customer was super pleased.

I agree. The cm red is some harsh stuff, but it really works well for overspray removal. Thanks!

Nice work. Was it more difficult to remove the overspray from the trim and rubber seals compared to the paint

It is, without a doubt, a much bigger pita to remove over spray from trim than it is to remove it from paint. Thanks!
 
Great work Garry, huge turnaround! I'm sure you were ready for it to be gone on day 3.



P.S. - thanks for the control clips, they work awesome!

LOL @ the razorblade! How are you feeling btw? Better?



Good vid. MB looks much better, very nice for a 1 step. I bet the client was stoked to get the car back and was kicking himself for disappearing for so long!

I am much better now. Still have some crazy chest congestion, but good. Thanks for asking!

Hey, no problem! Thanks!



Im glad you like them. I just added two new versions of the same clip. One is very similar to the one you have, but a tad bigger to accomodate a 3/8" air hose. The other one is much larger and is designed to hold your vacuum hose out of the way so that you dont have to scratch up door jambs while you vacuum. The vacuum hose version is made of heavier duty plastic and will accomodate up to a 2.25" hose and all smaller.

Nice work Gary! D300/MF for the one step?

Did you not watch the video, lol?



It was Buff and Shine 5.5" orange on PCXP with Menzerna Power Finish.



I dont have much experience with D300 yet. Does that combo finish well?
 
Nice work Garry! The razor blade over spray removal method would of been much faster... :whistle1::loco::party:
 
Damn, that was some horrible overspray. Sucks when you have to get super aggressive (purple clay is particularly nasty) and then have to spend a bunch of time polishing out the marring. Makes for a tedious, slow, super labor intensive job.

Most of it, must of missed that part...



Depends on how hard the clear is, harder clear it finishes pretty good. You must keep the pad clean.

That 3/8" air hose clip works awesome, for the record. I'll be using it a lot.
 
Wait, did you say you removed overspray from trim?!?!?



I thought there was only one man in all of creation with the power to achieve that result? A mythical Adonis whose skill with a razor blade and wool pads held on edge is known worldwide. A man with such humility and grace that the CEO of YouTube himself spends every waking hour just increasing the ratings of this man's videos. And now we have another Golden Child? Is this even possible? Does this signify the beginning of the end, or perhaps a paradigm shift in humanity's evolution?













JK, nice job Garry! It felt kinda good to get all that out of my system though....
