Detailing Thread [For Newbies][ARCHIVED]

thanks for the inputs madkatz and chicselog....

i may have been paranoid that i might take off more clearcoat than necessary when i was applying the swirlX... will try to adjust the pressure and duration of application and/or the amount of product next time.... as for my applicator pad, i used the microtex wax applicator pad, should i switch to a foam applicator?

will also try to take pictures before and after

just for clarification... you don't need to wait for SwirlX to dry, correct? you have to wipe it off right after working it?

I read the label/description of NanoGLOS sa Blade. It says that it helps protect againts rust. Mukhang kailangan ko ito, next time kapag naubos ko na yung wax ko (Turtle wax Platinuim) NanoGLOS na yung gagamitin ko and also NanoSLIQ.

Yup it does say so in the label. One thing that you'll notice after using NanoGLOS on your paint is that in about 5-15 minutes, some (in my case) parts of the paint developed what Microtex calls "coating moisture", it's like, well a moisture but not really that moisture na basa. It's no issue, just wipe it off

NanoGLOS and SLIQ IMO were designed to work together talaga. I do hope that it will be also as durable as other waxes out there. Since isa sa mga habol ko sa wax is durability. I'm more after paint maintenance than show car shine because well, you know how harsh our weather is, especially during rainy season.

Same here. I may also add, paint protection.
Chikselog: After mo bang in-apply yung NanoGLOS, ginamitan mo ba ng NanoSLIQ after an hour ba nun?

*jmpet626: i tried to mighty bond the kp600 with some velcro and sometimes it still gets removed, is this normal or did i use too little mighty bond? i tried it and brought it along for a long weekend and sadly the velcro strips got removed, also have you tried the 105 and 205 already? im trying it up with some menzerna p085rd

Eto pala yung ginawa ko sa kp600 ko. Sorry kung medyo late na

*azzkkr2600: i'll have to check my schedule and i have to ask my BF about that, chances are he's the one that you should talk to since he's the one thats basically doing all the training and explaining, we both have different forte's when it comes to detailing but he's quite good at explaining things, im not really the social and talkative type around people, maybe you should text and invite him, there's a big chance he might actually agree

As for the water marks on the wheels, it depends on how deep they are, normally cleaner waxes should already do the trick, but if its still no cutting it you might want to try some polishes for a more aggressive approach, as for waxes for painted wheels normal waxes would already do, but for non painted wheels i would highly recommend Collinite Metal Wax, its been great for aluminum and clear coated rims and the protection really lasts

hope to see u guys soon!

I quickly applied NanoSLIQ after buffing off the NanoGLOS . Since I waxed with NanoGLOS, inaaraw-araw ko ang pag apply ng NanoSLIQ.
