What is your favorite Junkman Video?

Yes over priced they parted ways with AJ and parted ways with them.

To be honest I thought Junkman worked for Adam's. Apparently reading some forums I'm guessing it's because he became too famous without being an employee.

However on the Adam's forums, Adam says they paid Junkman to highlightthighlight their products on forums. Junk didn't respond though. Whatever the case it's between them.

As for the OP, I'd say most like others my first video I saw of his was the one where he highlights the safety of the PC 7424XP... Mad props to anyone who runs a yellow pad with diamond cut compound on full speed on their corvette to show there is little danger with a DA.

He seems like a funny guy who doesn't take things too seriously. An everyman of sorts who is just like the rest of us and into detailing cars as a hobbyist or enthusiast. Very few people are comfortable in front of a camera like him.

Adam has stated AJ was paid to produce some videos for him.

I viewed his role as "celebrity endorser" who made videos, attended car shows to do demo's, had a Adam's discount code named for him, and visited various forums pushing Adam's over other competing products.

The problem is with detailing there is more than one way to do something so different detailers may disagree on proper technique and sometimes the "I am right and you are wrong" type discussions can occur.
 
... Large aggressive pad coupled with an excessive amount of pressure, a yellow mark to show pad rotation, and proper technique (keeping the pad totally flat) in using this machine just proved how much power the pc7424xp really has, at least in my mind. Couple the pc7424xp with some 4inch or 5inch pads and you could correct almost anything you needed to.

BAM! You are so getting it! :xyxthumbs:

Here's the way I like to explain technique when it comes to the PC. When David went into valley to fight Goliath, he wore no armor, had no fancy spears or swords and was armed with what most considered an inadequate and inferior weapon (sorta like what you constantly see the PC being called by those who don't have a clue). Goliath on the other hand was armed to the teeth including some massive armor. He appeared to be able to tackle anything (sorta like what the Flex or better yet, a rotary polisher would be considered). Saul, the king of Israel didn't think that David and his slingshot stood any chance against Goliath but what Saul didn't realize was that David had perfected his technique with the slingshot. As Goliath quickly found out, a solid technique makes any device a formidable tool.

A novice to machine polishing can learn a lot about paint correction from that story alone. Even a drop of water can drill a hole through the hardest matter on earth. It might not be fast and it may take awhile but perfect persistence will break anything. That's why I love to demonstrate to people in person how effective that machine is. Seeing what it can do in person while being used correctly will impress even the most skeptical. And the cool part about the PC is that it is safe enough for a 8 year old to use. ;)

Ouch! lol

Oh well, I'm sure Junkman is aware you can't win them all. lol

:xyxthumbs:

Jim,

Did you ever see the video made using this old 2-door Chevy? Circa 2006...

First, when we arrived and looked at this car while it was parked in the garage, the finish looked really nice as does the overall car.

I have also seen this quit often. That Camaro that Josh is buffing on looked outstanding until I pulled it out into the sun.

Before:

But look at what you saw when the sun shed some light on it:

I decided to show the owner what those stripes were supposed to look like, using the PC. I was at a show called Hot August Nights and man was it HOT! I only did one of them and told him the other one was all his! This is after two passes with SHR. Imagine what I could have done with M105. Here's what I ended up with:

Those swirls can't hide in sunlight! ;)

I like all the Junkman video's and am sure to check it youtube channel every few months.

I find him to be a very entertaining guy ! And would probably watch any video he would make. I also like how he keeps it simple and comes to his own conclusions instead of running with the flavor of the month.

That's because you and I both understand common sense. You can read something until you're blue in the face. That doesn't make it true. But when you see it with your own eyes, no one can take that away from you. If it walks, waddles and quacks like a duck, I'm having duck soup! :xyxthumbs:

Man he needs to polish those wiper trails out of his 'Vette windshield.

Actually, the entire car was dirty. :props:

Aha, you noticed that...

Let's just say that some misinformation was posted and I left it at that. I'm just not that guy. :xyxthumbs:

As Paul Harvey would say, "now you know the rest of the story." :)

FYI this is javier diaz the YouTube guy with all questions. Lol
 
Not, "Just Another Night in the Junkman's Garage"! That thread is a year long! Talk about epic...! lol!
 
Off topic are you going to post other topics in this forum


"pain is weakness leaving the body except when detailing."
 
Well, I don't know. My last thread got deleted and I don't know why. No one told me anything so I don't know what I did wrong. With that in mind, it is probably safer that I don't because I don't want to break any rules.
