Every pro has a few “tricks” that can’t be learned from videos alone, knowing how a certain film behaves in heat, how a polish reacts on different paint types, or how edges behave when tinting curved glass. The frustrating part for beginners is that these lessons often come from trial and error. Sharing tips, asking questions, and observing experienced detailers is the fastest way to shortcut the learning curve.
