sir hardinero .. ginagawa ko kasi 12hrs curing time lang hahaha
ask ko parents ko if what time sila aalis kinabukasan para sure..

7pm after mag diner wash na ako then (clay if magaspang paint) NSC and LLS..

tapos kinabukasan 7pm ulit wash ko ulit tapos LLS.. tapos kinabukasan ulit 7pm wash ako then LLS..

counted as 3 layers wahaha kahit ginamit nila yun auto ganyan parin process ko important sakin 7pm to 7am wag gagamitin..

nakita ko naman result ok naman.. pero 2months lang tapyas na LLS if gagawin sa tamang way baka tumagal pa ng more than 2months yung 3layer LLS..

pero ngayon need ko na mag clay, swirlx, step2 and NSC na ulit kasi napabayaan ko yung car.. busy for board exam

ah ganon ba paps...pero diba hindi dapat gamitin yung car kung magle-layer?

ako kasi nag-aalangan since car tent ako and kahit na mag-car cover ako matatamaan parin ng araw kaya naisip ko baka hindi rin ganon ka-effective yung pag-layer ko..

wait natin feedback ng mga gurus..

same tayo naka tent lang din ako.. tama dapat hindi gamitin pag nag layer.. eh kaya lang araw araw gamit yung car.. kesa wala siyang sealant eh ok lang na ganun gawin ko kahit papa ano may protection siya.. yun nga lang every 2months ako mag lalayer. ok na din kesa magas gasan or lumala mga water etch. no choice kasi lagi gamit yung auto. ma-aksya nga lang ako sa LLS. never pa nangyaring na stock sa bahay yung car sa loob ng 3 days eh at impossible mangyari yun hahaha

mga masters ok lang kaya gawin ko ito? sana may protection padin ito .. ok lang kung ma lessen yung durability.

btw, what's the color of your car? how do you check for water etches? they're not easily seen you see. here's how i look for them, my eye level is very close to the level of the panel, i use the reflection of light from the outdoors.

since you wash everytime you're layering LLS, you can actually use the car the next day. you can layer on the day it stays home. for daily drivers, you can wash and layer when the car comes back for the day.

can't find the warning against sunlight during the LLS curing process. the tent helps. try to email the maker of your sealant, maybe you'd be pleasantly surprised, or read around the net. no need to confine yourselves here. do come back and educate us.

Bold Beige honda city09, i check water etch tulad ng pag check nyo.. tipong nakapataong yung pisngi sa paint tapos sisipatin mo yung mga paint if may water etch.. nag try na din po ako mag search.. wala ako nakitang bawal ma arawan.. bawal lang eh mabasa.. try ko ulit hanapin yung link na nag sabing iwasan matalsikan ng water habang nag cure pa.. google best friend ko para alamin yung isang product hehe tapos iniisa isa ko mga forums na lalabas sa google when i type "LLS" "how to ... " etc etc.

for me gumana naman yung seal 12hrs, use car, wash ,seal... sa loob kasi nung 12hrs curing time na yun no sunlight at no water contaminant.

thanks paps for enlightening...i'll try to email carlack regarding this one and provide feedback...now, medyo mas nakaka-enganyo na talaga mag-layer..

by the way, mga detailing buddies sabi sa radio may bagyo daw parating....

baka next next week na lang talaga ako mag-layer..

mag 915 na lang muna ako this weekend pang-protect sa bagyo..

yup sir i always check the paint.. dapat lagi sya in perfect condition pag nilagayan ng LLS para pogi hehe nag kakaron ng water etch pero mabilis matangal dahil sa LLS na nakalagay.. NSC then 3layers LLS na ulit ganyan routine kada 2months hehe pero tatagal naman ng 3months or 4 siguro yung LLS pag summer time na.

sir panong mark?

any mark that will stay on top of a layer(s) of SG. a mark that won't seep through your first layer like AIO or SG and is paint safe. put it on the layer you're guarding against depletion. you now can check if that mark is there or gone. this way we don't need to hula/hope about the endurance of SG or any layer for that matter.

i :gouste: your diligence.

[raine]

bro if after mag LLS(3 layers) patungan pa ng wax, masmaganda ba kung ganito, then pawax wax na lang kahit every 1 week, para di mawala ang sealant, na rerecharge lang ang wax, pwede ba ang ganoon.

[indiej]

*raine
yes. wax over sealants. that's the general advice here. wax away
