Detailing Thread [For Newbies][ARCHIVED]

[madkatz]

Are these kinds of brushes available here? Or any close substitute?

Just get any high quality paint brush and it works just as well for the interior, if its for the exterior there's this one brand i forgot but its used for painting walls but its soo fine it actually works better than some of the detail brushes i bough from the US

can Mom's Scratch remover be used to remove water marks? cheaper kasi than scratchx/ swirl x... baka effective naman when used with an ROP.

Also, I have a B&D KP600 ROP... does anyone here have that unit? if so, san kau bumubili ng bonnets para dun?

Lastly? is it advisable to use ROP when applying wax? may applicator bonnet kc ung ROP ko, I'm using it to apply step 2 and collinite.

Thanks ulit sa lahat ng masipag sumagot!

I modify mo na lang siya with velcro straps para mag accept ng buffing pads. Di kasi maganda yung free bonnet ng black and decker. Pwedeng pwede siya mag apply ng Waxes, sealants, glazes. laking time masasave mo by using a ROP. Yung Mothers california gold step 1 to 3 ng mothers pwede by BnD ROP lang. Kulang nga lang power niya para maka remove ng oxidation at swirls although pwede niya ma hide ang mga swirls at scratches kung gumamit ka ng glazes

Actually i would still recommend buying Step 1 2 and 3 either Moms of Megs for that matter for the following reasons

Step 1 pre wax cleaner - while it is true that claying can remove any layer of protection from the paint i don't think you would always want to clay your car right? so this is where pre-wax cleaner steps in, lets say you're like me that seals and waxes my car multiple times 3 to 4 times a year, lets just make it 4 times a year, and after the first quarter of your complete claying with Step1 to 3 and multiple layers, and the paint is still smooth, are you gonna clay the whole car to slap on layers of sealants and waxes again? using this product makes that easier.

Step 2 - this depends on whether its mothers or megs, if its moms step 2 then you could always use this for filling and adding gloss to the paint whenever needed, and for megs, although it doesn't fill as much as mothers, megs step 2 can produce a better shine IMO for darker cars.

Step 3 - i don't think you would be waxing each week or every 2 weeks with a collinite right? thats gonna run through your pocket really soon, so why don't you just use this for those inbetween wax sessions and save a little more money by using a good wax to boost you existing main/protection wax.

sir JM, what did you use para dumikit ung velcro? Mighty bond? rugby?

Also, wats this big red thing? is this an applicator? buffing pad? is this better than using an MF bonnet? (i made an MF bonnet out of those micromagic MF towels. mahal microtex para gawing bonnet eh. although i'd really rather use velcro for ease.

CCS Red Ultrasoft Wax/Sealant Foam yan sir. Pang apply lang siya ng wax at sealants di sya for product removal. Gamit ko rugby tapos yung mga gilid gilid mighty bond. Malaking tulong talaga yung velcro mod kasi yung applicator ng bnd na foam madaling mapunit at mahirap ikabit. Usually 1 time use lang siya kasi madali masira.
