    I know most people here are great detailers but how about a video of how to properly wash a car with a 2 bucket system and how to properly dry the car with the proper products?

    Todd,

    Per my request a few days ago (maybe I subliminally planted this idea for a video contest?-might be a winner here-I don`t know)

    Topic for a video: Polishing and Sealing Glass/Windshields

    Product to demonstrate: Gtechnig Glass Polish and Sealant

    To include in video:
    Proper tools
    Proper Prep (tape, precleaning of glass)
    equipment (Buffer, MF`s)
    pads
    technique (Pressure, hand speed, work time)

    I think that there is a need for this given the lack of information on glass polishing on any detail site (I looked)

    Go even further with the OptiCoat video by doing a 50/50 shot of a painted panel. One side is OptiCoated and cured and the other is uncoated clearcoat. Then on purpose you should try and inflict various damages (swirls, marring, scratches, hard water spots, bird crap, bug acid, etc) to both sides equally to show the protective properties of OptiCoat. After that, show how OptiCoat (and the damage to it) can be polished/compounded off and reapplied.

    We can claim how good OptiCoat is all we want, but actually showing that it can resist damage and can be removed and reapplied just like new while maintaining your clearcoat levels would definitely be beneficial.

    How about some videos on proper interior cleaning? A lot of us have to clean up some DIRTTTTYYYY interiors and sometimes we might not know where to start.

    For example: A video using Wolfgang spot remover and/or upholstery restorer.
    A video using DP Total interior cleaner on various surfaces
    Proper leather conditioner application

    I think the interior cleaning step is a process that isn`t talked about very much, we all get hung up on how shiny and slick our paint looks we forget how important the inside is. After all that is where we spend most of our time!

    How about correcting and
    Finishing with either Megs MF or Optimum using M105/205 even if final finishing is foam.

    I think you should make one showing just how much damage a swirl o matic car wash inflicts on a vehicle. Red mazda before swirl o matic. Red mazda after swirl o matic. Then show the steps to fix it! Very important though you have show the look on your face a couple times as the brushes are hitting your car

    I think a time lapse video showing a 50/50 of the entire wetsanding process thru final polishing would be sweet. I`m pretty sure PBMG can find a test hood for this!!

    Consider a polish or pad cut comparison. Take a hood, rough it up uniformly with sandpaper. then mark off sections take a polish / pad then work one section, then change either polish or pad. For something like Lake Country pads, this would be proof on the cut charts -- at least for the paint in question.
