How Would You Feel About.......
I was wondering how you guys would feel about having videos showing different detailing procedures (e.g. claying, waxing). What do you guys think of the idea?
|
Good idea, Prinz.
I think a visual aid would be helpful to a lot of peeps. Especially with detailing stuff, it's good to actually see it being done, rather than just reading about it. |
Yeah, thats a cool idea:idea:
|
I agree it would be a very nice thing to have. I know the first time i detailed my car i was very nervous. A video guide would have been quite nice.
|
I have been thinking about doing this too. Being able to see how fast people are moving their Porter Cables may have saved me a lot of time learning...experience has taught me to move slooooooooooooooow. A lot of the paint stuff would be easier to elarn if people could see the technique.
|
BTw I ahve a video camera and FW hookup so I can capture video easily. It's kinda chilly but I could give it a shot...I'd rather wait til next sunmmer tho.
|
Great idea.
Pedro |
I agree this is a great idea and even the what not to do. Always helps to see it.
|
I am willing to host videos on my site if you want to tape some.
|
I'd personally like to see a video on claying, just to give you an idea. Sounds like a tedious process.
|
cool idea!
|
So when do we start filming?
|
Considering that many of us are in winter, we are going to start taping in the spring. Tell you all what, comne to the chat tonight and we will discuss it further.
|
I like the idea. I am pretty well informed and experienced in detailing but I would still watch all of the videos to see how others do the different procedures.
|
I just saw some links to different videos at www.tacscar.com. If anyone looks at them, let me know.
|
While I think videos are helpful they, much like writing detailing articles, carry the danger of becoming gospel and you'll have to decide if you want to do some things the "popular" method, or just your own way whatever that may be.
Good topics would include claying, PCing (even though DB's video is pretty good for that already), and quicker clips of things like QDing, CCDing, maybe a quick washing step overview... I don't know if you remember but theveed did a quickie DIY claying video. Let me know if you want to see it, I think I've got it lying around someplace... |
Bman, that's a great idea. Let's do it for the time being.
|
Sorry I haven't talked this up too much. I have been thinking about how to do this so that it would be easy for everyone to manage.
I definitely want to do some videos that are Maxima Specific to illustrate the particulars about detailing Maximas in a nutshell. In addition, I still want to get videos together on the following subjects: Claying Washing Waxing Swirl Removal New Car Prep In short, I want to stay with more general topics. :D |
I can't wait until spring to start this. :D
|
Ever made a home movie/documentary before? :D
|
Nope. But I am sure it would be fun.

let me know if I can help, I detail and Ive got a DV cam. :)
|
GO TO WWW.MEGUIARS.COM somewhere on that site they have a bunch of vids dealing with detailing, my bro went there and it was very helpful to him when starting his own detailing business.
|
Superblack: I am trying to plan a tutorials to be used here. Those videos are considered copyrighted material and we would need the permission of Meguiar's in order to use them.
|
those videos arent that great anyway,, they spend most of the time selling their product rather than teaching.
|
Those of us who want to do this, where will we host them?

since I dont think there will be a ton of traffic I can host some of them |
sounds good. can't wait till spring rolls around
|
Lets do it !
|
Cool. I'll set a time where we all can meet up and hammer out the specifics for this. We'll use the chat room I created for the detailing chat. :D
|
Considering that the weather is breaking, we really need to get this rolling. Who's still interested?
|
Ive got a camera and tons of product let me know what you need
|
I will def do it once my paint is cured...got the Menzerna the other day...Pinnacle is in...ready to go in...how many days to I have left?
|
i like it!!
|
Another thing I just thought of is writing a "Detailing 101" thread to show the processes we use to get the Maxes shiny.
What do you think? |
sounds good, Im detailing a few cars tommorow, Ill try to get some vids of some easy techniques.
|
Video has been shot and more is on the way. I need to see what I have, do some editing and then I will post. Just hope everyone approves of my technique. :)
|
Cool. If you need space to host, let me know.

Now I just have to get off my butt and get this stuff edited. |
No problem there. I am also working on another project that might be able to help the org.
