How to jewel paint with McKee's 37 Jeweling Wax and a Porter Cable 7424XP
Note how many pads I used for this car?
Nu Finish can't do this....
One of the things I've been doing now for a couple of years is
TAKE PICTURES of how many pads I use for a project.
Why?
Because most people don't understand how many pads it takes to do a job right.
Most people try to buff out entire cars with 2-3 pads and then wonder why their pads don't last very long. So I do my part to
EDUCATE with
pictures.
Now follow me...
With a
FINISHING WAX like the Pinnacle Souveran or a
FINISHING SEALANT like Wolfgang Deep Gloss Paint Sealant 3.0, you would only need ONE pad to go over a car as
HUGE as this because when using a finishing wax or a finishing sealant you're
SUPPOSED to be applying the product to perfect paint. That is paint that doesn't need any "polishing" i.e. abrading.
BUT - when using a cleaner/wax or in this example, a jeweling wax,
PART of what I'm doing is "cleaning" or abrading the finish. When using this type of product and doing this type of work you are WORKING the product, not merely spreading it out over the surface and thus you're going to saturate your pads with product
BECAUSE you're supposed to be doing
SECTION PASSES, not merely gliding a pad over the surface.
So here's a sales pitch, something I don't actually do -
buy lots of pads
I teach all of his in my classes by the way. I point this out because,
A: Some people don't grasp just how much detailed information I share by doing a brain dump in my classes.
B: Not all classes are the same. I know there are no other classes like a class I teach. This is what I do. Educate.
Anyway, in the car detailing world, any brand that wants to be a PLAYER should have 2 cleaner/waxes in their arsenal.
1: Medium Cut Cleaner/Wax for doing high quality production detailing.
2: Jeweling Wax for when you don't need to do heavy correction but you do need light correction and if the product makes the paint look like a polished gemstone at the same time then that's a bonus.
Note: Often times when I use the word
WAX it's in the
generic form meaning the
protection ingredients, not specifically a
waxy substance. Most cleaner/waxes use a combination of protection ingredients and are what are called,
blended waxes or
blended sealants. (I have an article on this topic somewhere)
While I do pick and chose
EVERY word I type on a pubic forum or touch point specifically and purposefully, sometimes the word itself is intended to be generic. It's a practice I developed and honed as a veteran of the NXT versus Zaino Wax Wars.
So every employee of every wax company that reads this into the future, here's a little marketing tidbit I just shared with you for free. (Your welcome)
And please... try to find the above kind of information explained in a way that ties the big picture together and makes sense on any Facebook Group. --> :laughing:
