I made a video.

Thank you!



That Blue Ice by Pro, is the only product I use from them. It dries really nice and even, and lasts quite a while. The other products I have tried from them have been a bit of a dissapointment, but I haven't tried the "ultimate cutter".

It is not the best, but it has it's place. I like to think of it as Megs #95, with a little less cut. It also has very minimal dusting which is what I really like about it.



Again, good luck with the video.

over all presentation wise, but for showing before and afters, I still think a video falls WAY short of still pictures. i think the video is just too hard to pick up defects, which is why I dont get why some of the detailers are using crappy point and shoot camera videos to depict their work...you cant see anything in the befores really, and the afters are from like 5-8 feet away...
 
wow John that incredible. I hope to be in your position some day with a nice spaced out facility to work. I think i'll have to move away from Hawaii and to the mainland to continue on with the type of work i would really like to go after.



Great everything there in the video. Much luck to you and your crew.
 
I like the fact that you used the Paul Dalton template for your video. I feel like there was a lot of emphasis on the wash/interior detailing with very little emphasis on the most time consuming part: the paint correction!

Understandable - most 99% of people, washing/interior is the 'biggest' part of detailing. To them, paint correction means taking a buffer, spending 1hr, and having perfect paint.....they don't want to hear it takes upwards of 10hrs to do that part.

Very true, the video would be very boring just watching me buff.

Agreed. I would've just spent a few more seconds explaining the care and time it takes to do a proper paint correction. I would explain how many pads you use and roughly how long you buff for on your average vehicle. I would also stress the fact that the compounds you are using are "resurfacing" the clearcoat.

Not a bad idea, I think we have enough footage that I could actually re-edit the movie.

great video.. if you do add some more info . i would add that most detailers use glazes that cover up swirls and that you completly remove them not cover them up ... just a thought . but none the less great video!!!
 
Nice video. Its very well put together... dare I say well directed & produced!!



Looks like a great set-up as well. The only thing that made me flinch was the use of Connolly Hide Care. You do know the ingredients in it and how it may not be suitable for more modern coated leather?



But best of luck with it. I'm sure the effort with the video will see great reward.



Cheers.

KaPow!
