mas maganda kung mas matagal.

sa Klasse recommended mga 24-48 hours. I guess it also applies to most of the sealants in the market.

[jacorb_88]

when you apply the sealant, can you still use the car (say after an hour) ?

will it make any difference in the waiting period if you send the car under the sun at high noon?

i got myself a basement parking in the office, i plan to use my noon break to apply Klasse SG.

Last question, after the curing period, do you have to wash the car again due to dust? or you just need to wipe it with clean microtex plush?

[chain]

wash, pwede. or try using the CCD.

Paano ba gamitin ang rubbing compound? at ano ang gagamitin for rubbing?

hirap talagang walang kaalam-alam.

[ILuvDetailing]

lets put it in layman, Rubbing Compound = Liquid Sand paper.

tama si ILD.. wag ka munang mag-RC kung wala pang kaalam-alam.. very abrasive.

for what purpose ba?

[ReccaH]

Pwede ba magasgas ang glass (for windshield and windows) if I use rubbing compound for removing water spots or I'll stick with cleaner wax na lang? Dami questions sorry.. hehe.

cleaner wax para sa paint..

if you're planning to use RC sa windows, pwede naman. medyo matrabaho nga lang talaga.

Thanks dehadista. Yun cleaner wax kasi has little effect eh. I'll use now RC sa glass combined with rotary.

Its almost imposible by hand, you'll need a rotary or a Porter Cable for the job. Or you can always bring it to a pro.

Another question, what do you use to polish minor/light swirls from chrome bumper (Pajero)?

Sir ganito ba? Magkano bang porter cable?

[chain]

yung mga hairline scratches and deep swirls can be removed by using a abrasive polish such as DACP. can be done by hand, alot easier if by machine (rotary or ROP).. tapos LSP ka na.

you can minimize their appearance too by slapping on some glaze (covering up) or by just simply working on your washing technique to prevent them from worsening. try to use a good MF towel or kahit waterblade and some quality washmitts together with a pure car shampoo.

just try to browse through this thread. this has been substantially covered already.

dehadista: kaya ba talaga, hirap na hirap ako hehehe siguro tamad lang anyway...

Tried the Mothers Reflections Advance Car Wax here are the results.
Note: wash and wax lang to.





Will try out the Mothers Reflections Advance Top Coat maybe tonight pag sinipag.

hey guys and detailing gurus,

nagpa-glass cleaning ako sa bigberts araneta (both front and rear windshield) its been a week and a half di pa rin totally bumabalik yung beading dun sa glass...ganun ba talaga? baka di na talaga bumalik yung beading?

well, yung mga watermarks (outside the wiper/wiping area) natanggal na, pero may problem (?) naman ako dun mismo sa wiping/wiper area..malabo...parang mayroon hindi natanggal na material/substance? after mo mag-wiper, you would notice na may ibang area na malabo and ibang area na clear...

ganun ba talaga yun? please help...thanks..

pasensya na, nahirapan kasi akong mag-drive kanina lalo na malakas yung ulan....
