most of what was mentioned in that link was discussed here already. with regards to the items listed there, here's a few suggestions:

go for MicroFiber (try to get a few of these for buffing, product removal)
adequate WashMitts
applicator pads
tire and trim dressing (wag Tire Black)
a decent carshampoo (with no wax, pls.)
decent wax (Eagle1, Megs, Moms...)

that and a few other items would help. it would be of great help if you search this thread first.

Depende kasi yan pare sa actual condition, we can try out a spot, if it comes off and we'll proceed, if not, no obligations... Kung isang seat lang mga 200/seat

thanks theveed for the quote, pero when i removed the seat covers last saturday, halos wala na rin yung oil smell sa seats. i think dumikit na sa seat covers. anyway, i still hope i get to visit your shop and try your services. mag bukas na kasi kayo ng branch sa makati para malapit sa office.

1. ty sa staff ng bbpd specially kay messrs. theveed and blackmagic for helping me out with the detailing goodies.
2. tried the 3 step as soon as I got home, thus costing me 2 days (due to the curing) of my short vacation (exterior pa lang yun). sorry di ko nakunan ng pics ng before (kasi, madilim pa nung nag-umpisa ako) at ng after kasi umulan na...waaah! ganun ba talaga? kasama ng last na pahid ng wax ang ulan? buti na lang may silong...
3. ang mahal ng detailing session na yun, inabot ako ng 100k!!! hehe. biro lang, inaasar kasi ako ng relatives na kaya ako sinumpong ng cholecystolithiasis at na-laparoscopic cholecystectomy e nasobrahan ko sa pagaalaga sa aking "Diana" hehehe. kaya, sa Friday ulit, tutal extended na ang aking leave. hehehe. sana makunan ko na ng before and after na pics para maipaevaluate ko na sa mga gurus. :-D
sya, sensya na kung OT. :-P

[theveed]

B2Bomber: Pare, what do you mean by "due to curing" walang curing po involved sa mga nabili nyo... O baka you re-applied another LSP (last step product) the next day?

[B2Bomber]

O baka you re-applied another LSP (last step product) the next day?

ay sensya na po, wrong term. yup, yun nga re-application ang tinutukoy ko

[ReccaH]

1. bug and tar remover
2. kerosene
3. claying

i will go with bug and tar remover na lang to be safe.

any comments on TW's RainAway prod? my gf's sis seems to swear by it... just wondering if it's worth giving it a try...

[chain]

Rainhop (if there are still any available...) is one of the more durable ones during bad weather. not much in the looks department though.

but the beads, the beading is mesmerizing.

ginagamit ko pag nag d-detail ako ay Zaino. this is the best product that i've used. clay bar muna bago yung wax. multiple coats (around 7 coats between their different bottles) and the result is unbelievable. yung shine ng paint ay parang basa sa tubig. wet look ika nga and you will only have to do this two times/year.

sa tire dressing naman, Shining Monkey (parang aerosol spray) ang gamit ko. kasi walang splatter or overspray kagaya ng oil based tire cleaner. dumidikit pa ang alikabok kay nagiging brown ang kulay ng sidewall. at pag foam based naman ang ginagamit, nagiging dry ang sidewall ng tire.

[ILuvDetailing]

mahal kasi ng Zaino hehe

[B2Bomber]

uh, so rainhop/zaino are pwede rin sa windshield?ang pagkakasabi sa akin kasi is yung rainaway is para sa glass...mali ba?

kapatid, maraming produkto ang zaino. merong iba-ibang applications para lang sa minor scratches, swirls, finishing spray (gloss spray after waxing) etc. meron din pang window. yung rainx (o rainaway ba ang tawag dian?) ay para sa glass para pag patak ng ulan di masyadong mag fog windows mo.
