It depends on how you define machine buff

if its

machine wax = meaning application of cleaner wax and then removed via machine using a pad then you can have this done every month

2 step = meaning using a polish and then machine wax, then you can have this done every time you get a lot of swirls on your car

3 step = meaning using rubbing compound, polish and machine wax then i would suggest you only avail of this service only when desperately necessary since this really does remove a considerable amount of clear coat

Then again, bottom line, it still depends on the level of the detailers skill, my Bf recently saw a Revo that was really shiny and glossy and it was 3 stepped 5 times and it still has some orange peel and i've seen a car 3 stepped only thrice and it already striked thru the primer

so ok lang pala mag pa machine wax every month...akala ko po parang mga 4 months bago ako pwede mag pa buff..may nagsabi kasi sa akin na pag lagi daw ginagawa yun parang mawawala daw yung top coat.kasi hindi po ba after mag buff mainit init pa po yung paint..kaya ganon po pagkakainitindi ko regarding sa pag buff..thanks po.

So what can I at least do every month to remove some swirls? My new monty is already getting some.

If im not mistaken California yung brand niya. Yung chenile wash mitts niya mas makapal at mas maraming "fingers" kesa sa microtex na wash mitt

Hi all,

Will Klasse AIO be able to replace a true polisher for nothing more than the most light swirl marks/bird dropping etches and water marks?

I'm seriously considering using a polish to remove light scratches, but apprehensive about the results since I don't have access to a RO machine polisher and intend to just use hand polishing.

TIA

Sir proper washing technique using MF washmitts, 2 bucket method and MF or waffle weave drying towel para ma minimize ang cause ng swirl marks. Everytime na nag reremove ka ng swirl marks little by little nababawasan ang clear coat ng paint.

Kung hand application ok ang Megs Swirl X and maintain with Wax.

[weszt]

Yung output power niya is 240watts.. Yung portercable 500watts so baka kulang din sa power yung dewalt.


Sir eto check nyo nag bebenta ata sila ng PorterCable products diyan sa SG

Yes sir pwede by hand and ROP. Maganda din reviews ng swirl X kahit hand application.

Yep sir I'm even doing a 3 bucket method, one bucket for top panels and other one for bottom/wheels. Using 4 Microtex plush + blower to dry the whole thing.

Bro what kind of blower are you using? And how much? Naghahanap rin kasi ako ng blower.

Wow tyaga nyo sir plush MF towel lang sa montero? Ako hirap na hirap mag car wash ng montero ang taas kasi masyado. Try using washmitt and 2 bucket. 1 bucket for rinsing the washmitt when it gets soiled and the other one filled with shampoo. Kung OC talaga you can also use grit guard on both buckets para hindi mag recirculate yung dumi sa bucket.

[x_jason_x]

Jmpet626,

May mabibilihan ba ng grit guard dito sa Manila? Dati kasi i'm planning to buy from states kaso lang i'm not sure naman kung it will fit my bucket.

So far wala pa nga ko nakikita seller gusto ko din bumili. Pwede ata siya sa mga 5 gallon buckets yung ginagamit na lalagyan ng paints. Yung mga bucket na normal parang hindi kakasya eh.

[PSI]

la po bang me DIY na grit guard?

[Reepicheep]

Got it for 1.3k if I remember it correctly.

Yes sir plush lang with aid of my blower. Will buy a jelly blade soon para mas madali.

[scharnhorst]

*repicheep: san nyo nakuha yung blower sir?

btw, sir Edwin advised that using water blades *might* cause scratches kung malagyan ng particles yung surface while drying
