They have this clay they are calling,never use it pa.Lets wait for some inputs from our co tsikoteers.

I have this kasi this small chipped paints sa car me,nakakairitate tignan.

[kenet_3]

thanks sa mga reply

*chain,
sorry di ko masyado gets yung ques mo, pero may nag-suggest sakin na bumili ng about 100cc na pintura sa mga paint shop

*monsrick
san nakakabili nitong clay at magkano?

[monsrick]

At ACE Hardware meron sila,together with the Turtle Wax bale bundle sila.Around 400-500 price nya.Hindi lang me bumili coz dont know how to use it pa,intay intay tayo ng inputs ng mga gurus.

normally, if the chip is just as small as the tip of a pentel pen and very very shallow, all you need to do is use some touch-up paint or have someone skilled to do it. . it still beats having the whole panel redone.

some dealers usually include this whenever you get a brand new vehicle from them. kung wala you can ask them if they have the exact same color available. kung wala, i'm very much certain quality auto-paint stores can approximate that color accurately.

by the way, don't get those lipstick-chip set from turtle wax. absolutely useless.

If the paint has clear coat medyo kakaiba ang application ng touch up paint with clear coat than those without. Have somebody who has done this before just go through the car and touch up the nicks, than make a mistake and screw up then have a larger touch up done.

Question: Where can i find a Person na Skilled, katulad nung mga nakaposts above? may ganun din kc ako, sa Drivers door, natamaan nung katabi kong Kotse sa parking, siningil ko ng 600, hehe tangal ung paint, pero kita ung primer (di bah kulay white un) tpos may scratches na rin ung scar, sa may front bumper, medyo nasty ung Gas gas eh, tanggal pati primer, labas ang Fiber glass hayz, panu ba magandang remedy at saan?

Yung scratched bumper ko na sinlaki ng singko, tinira ng pintor ng Toyota Manila Bay, touch up lang maayos ang pagkaka touch up parang original paint din wala kang makikitang dugtong as in parang walang nangyari.

Sa mga bagong cars, they have this plate tags under the hood and included in there was the body color paint code. Eto yung tinitignan ng mga pintor pag nagpapa-touch up sa kanila or per panel paint job. Eto yung code na nilalagay nila sa computerize paint mixer.

Sa Banawe marami doong shops that can do one-day painting. One shop na alam ko was M7 who has done a bumper repainting for a fellow Innova owner. P2.5K yata ang singil.

PUlido kaya gumawa? any other places pa? Honda kc Ride ko, GLossy Blue ung Kulay eh, hindi xa ung Normal na Kulay Blue parang Light blue na may Glitters sa paint, ehe sana before Xmas para madadaanan ng new year yung car na walang Gas Gas ehehe

[Howard Roark]

tsips!

may gasgas ang tsikot ko sa bumper. may pininahan kasi ako na wall, di ko napansin na may gi pipe pala na nakausli sa baba . gasgas tuloy na around 4 inches, labas ang fiberglass sa bumper with some not so deep scratches.

I bought nippon metallic quicksilver spray paint PYLOX ( I assumed its the same with my altis' quicksilver paint), some fine sandpaper and some rubbing compound.

I am planning to sand the area to minimise the deep scratch, spray paint it, then smoothen again with rubbing compund.

I know that this wont eliminate the scratches but I hope it will make it somewhat unnoticeable. I am planning to buy wrap around kits pag nakaipon, doon ko na lang pa fix yung problema pag paint nila nung kits baka pwede tawad.

Any suggestions? Is it ok to spray the area with PYLOX clear coat too?

THANKS!!!

get the original shade from toyota or have some mixed. better yet, leave it to the pros.

patimpla mo yung mica.. try to look for NAX kung honda yung ride mo. as for skilled, maybe someone will chime in with that.

[mackkcam]

*Chain,

Anu ulet? alin dyan ung store name at ung Paint brand name? hehe, paki rephrase naman ung message mo, hehe

di na kc ako naggandahan sa gawa ng dati naming latero + painter eh, nagcchip-Off ung paint, pakonti konti nga lng, unNoticeable, pero pag close up, halata, so hanap ako mas magandang shop na skilled tlga, downside is, di na ako makakadiscount, tpos ung mga konting favors, cguro di na marerequest, hehe

[chain]

yung mica refers to the glitters dun sa paint mo. as in pearl-mica pigmented paint surfaces. i'm not sure of what brand of paint is being used now with honda but around 2-3 years back, I'm quite certain na NAX ang paint na ginagamit.

OT: recently nung nagpatimpla ako ng night-hawk black sa suki kong paintshop sa banawe, the owner related to me that alot of new owners ng honda vehicles nagpapatimpla uli sa kanya. apparently, hindi daw maganda ang paint na ginagamit ngayon.

[mackkcam]

ah ok, so do you have an referrals for any shop that specializes on re-painting bumps, scratches, etc + Latero na rin, i think kelangan pang lagyan ulet ung Bump ko eh, try ko mag post ng pic d2, para makita nyo, ung iba naman mga minor scratches lng naman, pero deep, kc labas na un primer na mismo,

For me, I got hold of a Paint Chip Repair system (Mom's) from Renault.
I tried it na on a small section of my car which was hit by the handlebar of a pedicab in C5. I managed to get it down to barely noticeable by me (and completely invisible by others, ehehehe). My car's paint is Nighthawk Black.

Pag may tuklap na paint na kasing laki ng 25 centavos kaya pa i touch up? Sa loob ng pintuan.....hindi naman kita pag nakasarado pero gusto ko ipaayos.

Magkano aabutin?
