An Introduction To Invisible Touch Detailing
An Introduction To Invisible Touch Detailing
Firstly, many thanks for making it possible to bring the fantastic world of detailing and professional vehicle care to be more accessible, to members of the Outlaw Jap Club
I have always strived for excellence with anything I do. My passion lies in the automotive industry, or in fact anything with an engine. I started Invisible Touch Detailing from a personal dream of mine, to allow owners to receive treatments on their cars, boats or even horse trucks that produce beautification, protection and overall, maximise the satisfaction of ownership.
Every vehicle I have ever worked on is treated like my own and I am proud to offer an unrivalled professional service with exquisite attention to detail in all areas within your experience of Invisible Touch Detailing.
I offer a range of treatments from maintenance details, protection details, full exterior machine polishing to remove swirls, scratches, holograms, machine buffer marks and revitalise faded paint. Interior details with cloth and leather interiors, engine bay details to polish metalwork and fully protect and nourish all rubbers and plastics with UV conditioners. I also offer extras such as hub and calliper repainting services. Any treatment can be tailored to your requirements, be it your daily driver or full on show car preparation.
Every paint correction treatment will receive an Invisible Touch Detailing service book. This will contain a record of each treatment carried out by myself and is fantastic as proof of work carried out to a future new owner or simply to keep with your existing records.

Paint correction treatments can make a huge difference to a car, I have witnessed poor paintwork on a car, transformed by the magic a professional detailer can do.

Whether we spend money modifying our cars or enjoying them as they are, treatments like these do change your outlook on ownership in my opinion, let alone the fact you are preserving a possible future resale value.

Ok quick question for you Christian, the pads that come with my porter cable polisher have only been used once (2 years ago) and I didnt clean them after use.....can these still be cleaned and used or would you suggest getting some new ones?

Well I would just put them in the washing machine with liquid detergent and Do not use fabric softener and they should be good as new !!

Its also quite beneficial to clean them during use to stop polish clogging them up. Just turn the machine upside down at a fairly good speed and run a clean tooth brush over them as they spin.

25-02-2017, 12:38 AM #8As Moley said mate, i wash mine in the washing machine after every use, but only use liquid detergent and never fabric softener, same goes for microfibre cloths to. If they have been left that long, just give them a wash and see how they come out, for the price they are, you'll know if its worth replacing them or not Its also quite beneficial to clean them during use to stop polish clogging them up. Just turn the machine upside down at a fairly good speed and run a clean tooth brush over them as they spin.

Moley Have you any advice on getting rid of the hologram marks on paint work, with a G220
Hologram marks are reasonably easy to remove compared with scratches as very little top coat will need to be removed, its more of a refining/finishing process involved. What polish did you intend using?
As a general rule for G220's you need to keep the working area quite small, about a foot square, no more than 1 1/2 foot or the abrasives will not get broken down properly and the working area will dry out to quickly. Keep the pad flat to the surface at all times, start on speed 1 or 2 to spread the polish and get even coverage for a couple of passes, move up to speed 3 or 4 with medium pressure. You want to ensure that the pad has enough revolutions to spin at 1 to 2 revolutions per second, the easiest way to achieve this is by drawing a black line on the backing plate, you will be suprised how different pressures or the curve of a panel will affect this. The machine should be moved at about 1 to 2 inches per second. You should be doing several passes like this and working the polish to break it down fro a good 3 or 4 mins, you can move up and down, side to side, figures of 8, just ensure it is an even coverage. You can then put the speed up to 5, i would never run a G220 at speed 6, its not required. Do 3 or 4 passes like this until the polish turns clear, this is when it will be fully broken down. Then remove the residue and assess the results.
Different polishes will require slightly different techniques, work speeds and times. But the above is a general rule.
Most importantly, relax, keep your arms relaxed. If you are stiff, the machine just will not 'flow' correctly and you'll result with inducing your own machining buffer marks.
