Guys, meron ba sainyo gumagamit ng blower to dry their cars? I'm planning to buy the b&d, yun parang ginagamit sa mga car wash. Is it advisable to buy? Meron ba ibang cheaper alternatives? Thanks.

I use a Makita cordless blower. I normally use it as a yard blower but is perfect for drying up wet crevices. I find it practical as the rechargeable battery can be hot-swapped with my Makita cordless drill as well.

This type of blower is actually okay for general purpose drying. If the snout can be replaced with a shorter size then it is perfect. Is this the same as the one on this video?

Mga Sir/Ma'm kanina kasi sa pinagparkan ko may nagpintura..ngayon nung pagbalik ko may mga maliliit na dumikit na pintura..e ang masama silver yung sasakyan ko tapos kulay green yung pintura. sa may hood to e. pag uwi ko pinalamig ko muna yung hood..wash and then clay..pero ayaw ng matanggal.. may iba pa bang way para matanggal yun??

my take is hazing with OID usually arise from not diluting it enough. same as ONR. measure it while diluting.

ah ganon ba paps....eh di mas ok pa bang sumubra ang distilled water para hindi mag-haze?

with OID 1:3 and ONR 1:16

I tried just an ordinary vinegar and it worked fine with me. It removed water stains off my windshield to my amazement. 1:1 vinegar to water is my mix.

I'm absolutely sure that distilled vinegar will work wonders but try first with what you have on a discreet part of your car and assess if you like the result.

Just my opinion

yup right now i'm using yung datu vinegar pero para hindi po sa body ng car kungdi sa MF towel...

mga paps, san ba makakabili ng distilled vinegar tried it sa moa hypermart hindi nila kilala o alam ang distilled vinegar...kaya opted to buy na lang yung SM bonus natural vinegar

Heinz or Magictime na brand, merong distilled vinegar.

just follow the correct dilutions. OID streaking is attributed to heat, dilution, over-dampening.

try 1:4 OID-distilled water: your fold of MF should just be damp instead of almost soaked when you're done. the good thing is that you won't deplete your OID as fast. btw, check your bottle cos the smaller ones of OID are not labeled 'concentrated'.

that will work. use it on distilled water instead . just kidding. at around 1:50 or 250ml (i may have written 25ml before) per washing machine load, vinegar on water won't be smelly. your folks can also use it for adobo. label that as such when you find distilled vinegar, which you will relabel 'acetic acid - poisonous' ;).

find distilled vinegar at the imported food section of puregold, robinson's, maybe SM, etc.

paps, ok ito ah...

Based on personal experience, the best cleaner/wax for me (prior to applying any Collinite finishing wax) is Collinite Liquid Sapphire SS216.
Hope this helps

This is the wax or combo (sapphire + 915) that i would want to try since 915 alone is parang nabibitin ako sa gloss nya...

how much ba sapphire?


comrades, i just bought vinegar in hypermarket yday eh sabi ni master dapat daw distilled.....eh hindi distilled yung nabili ko 1 galon pa man din..

saan ba nakakabili ng distilled na vinegar? yung mga mokong naman kasi dun sa store eh tinaasan pa ako ng kilay nung maghanap ako ng distilled vinegar...

[Hardinero]

question ulit mga comrades,
1) OID - does it leaves a haze or something when applied...diba pahid then let it dry lang no
need to buff na

2) Advance Reflections spray wax -- same question above...

kasi with OID i applied it kasi kagabi and natuwa nga ako sa gloss nya kaya lang this
morning parang may haze or something sa hood ko.

hmmm so far we use OID at a stronger dilution sometimes even up to 50% more concentrated especially on shows and no streaking whatsoever, technique is just mist a little not too much and then wipe is ASAP, if you apply too much you would get streaking or as what indiej might have said you might be using it too concentrated

Hello Everyone!

Stoner's Invisible Glass is now available at True Value Outlets

for those who don't have time or doesn't have Glass Science Rain Clear on their windshield, this would be a great recommendation it gives very light beading for glass surfaces

however for those using Glass Science i would recommend using the Glass Science Spray product since it goes quite well with the Rain Clear Gel

I agree on this! Stoner is way better than Rain X. Glass Science is better than Stoner. Aquapel is better than Glass Science.
