    On Jap cars, it won't be much of a problem since there is not much electronics involved, on Euro cars especially the newer one's engine detailing is the way to go since there is a lot of electrical stuff in there.

    bad driver: for this vehicle, yung exterior detail, used a ROP to apply the products and MF for removal.. since this vehicle naman was last waxed a month ago, wala nang slickness on the surface and there were definitely some contaminants already that washing couldn't remove. since I didn't have time for the whole shebang, I decided to go the fillers route...

    among the products used were:
    Clay (never hurts to clay...)
    Gold Class Shampoo
    Mom's SG (can be a PITA if applied too thick)
    NXT
    QD ko for this one was Final Inspection...

    hey guys, just finished "detailing" my ride..or somewhat to that extent of detailing it...hehe just came this morning from bigberts to buy their car shampoo (thanks to bigberts and to the guy who assisted me who was watching the east conf. finals..hehe) after i washed my car using the car shampoo i bought. i dried the car using an MF cloth and then when the car was already dry. i proceeded applying 3M IHG (since this is a newly painted ride) and then buff it off with an MF. somehow, the results (which i attached here) is not THAT convincing..dont know what i did wrong though. i do have a question though, how long would you leave the IHG before you buff it? baka dun yung mali ko..?? help gurus!

    Zechs:

    1) Your car is white. You won't see a lot of difference with products, it'll take some distinct combo to make it look "different from just clean"...

    I'm itching to wetsand that hood hehe.
