Thanks for the explanations.
That's what I do. :laughing:
Watching on tv, being a detailer it logically didnt make sense, but with your explanations, everything makes sense.
When I first started working on TV, this would be with Bryan Fuller on Two Guys Garage, (something like 22 episodes) and Dennis Gage, (4 years with 12 episodes a year), I learned I had to take my detailer's hat off and put on my entertainment hat. TV is about entertainment. Of course it's my natural course of action to share how-to information or just is important, the "why information" that tells a person why they are doing the thing a certain way.
It's part of my evolution.
Besides your advice of shrinking the working space down, were there any adverse effects of using the compounds or polishes in the direct sunlight on a hot surface?
Yes - It was hot out and thus the paint was hot and this made anything paint related more difficult. Each team member had to physically work harder to maintain their high quality level of work. Even simple things like wiping a compound off of hot paint requires more physical work while maintaining perfect wiping technique or you could and would but towel marring back into the paint you just perfected.
The owner really was moved with how his car turned out, good episode!
Doc was a real trooper. The pollen on the car was also in the air and it was agitating Doc making it hard for him to talk. That's why if you listen when he's talking his voice sounds a little hoarse, a little weak... he hung in there as the day went by and made it all the way to the end.
AJ will never look at her car the same again I suspect!
At Derick Samson's shop for Episode 5, RIDLR Award, this one,
Competition Ready Episode 5 - RIDLR AWARD - Derick Samson's 1952 Mercedes 170S
AJ told me how now whenever she's looking at cars its an automatic reflex to inspect them for swirls. At the end of taping that episode I gave her a FLEX Swirl Finder Light.
