Definitely my favourite detailing channel on YT, the G wagon they did looked a nightmare! They were spending a lot of time with the time with the mini rupes in all the right and narrow lips.

Although I'm surprised he has never covered paint depth readings before compounding from what I've seen, although he has mentioned in comments that he does it.

Nice to see someone's hard work paying off, also shows the power of advertising by social media/YT. He's having all sorts of classics shipped to him from abroad now.

He's done PD readings in one of the earlier vids. There was one not long ago where he mentioned his backlog it's huge they just can't get them done quick enough but i guess with detailing it's not all about that, it's good to see they are staying at it on the scale they are and not ballooning put into something that looses what is great about them. Would love to get my f31 the WD treatment but can't bring myself to justify it on a daily driver.

It's very good, very in depth with tutorials etc...he pushes his brand of cleaning products but that's fine.

I've learnt quite a bit from watching him and it really helped me when I had to correct the paintwork on my car.

Link below, it's a a big channel, millions of views and masses of videos covering everything and some great cars that he works on but also normal cars getting the same treatment.

Good shout, his Porsche renovation/repaint was epic. Lots of info, he goes into lots of detail, the cloth wash process video was VERY thorough, but I just find him a bit annoying for some reason, seems a bit intense all the time.

I know what you mean he also uses 10 words where one or two would suffice, I've warmed to him though as the information and knowledge is great.

Yes no denying he knows what he's doing, and although I find him a little annoying, I've still watched loads of his stuff.

One channel I find amusing to watch is Autoshine cars. Nowhere near the scale of WD or Ammo. I started watching it for a bit of a laugh, but he does clean an interior really well.

Haven't watched those videos I just watch the detailing ones there are around 100, not something I watch for entertainment just to get the tips and processes right before machine polishing the car.

His tips are spot on.
