Detailing Thread [For Newbies][continued 2]

are the scratches palpable? if yes, di na matatanggal ng buffing yun... sayang lang clearcoat mo sir if you continue to buff. Malaki ang cut ng wool pad...

hindi pa naman malalim. di pa siya yung tipong naffeel na ng finger or lulubog na ang fingernail. they can't be felt but they can be seen. i'm assuming clearcoat scratches talaga.

then yeah... a wool pad with m84 might do it. pero matapang nga ang combination na yan. hehe

nice paint condition db!

hirap lang talaga i-maintain lalo na sa case ko kasi ala bubong yung garahe ko sa bahay...

kaya pati pang cover ko ng kotse e DIY din na maayos considering walang bubong...

[dbhollanda]

are those spots near the reflection of the sun the metallic flakes in the paint? i've read how others would say "make the metallic flakes pop out" and i would think that they were just exaggerating. awesome shot.

good call on mother's Top Coat. Nano Sliq has a similar function.

actually ganyan talaga ang eom paint na black ng santa fe na pag natapan ng ilaw e may metallic flakes nga. maganda sya tignan in person pag lumalabas ang metallic flakes na yan pag tinamaan ng sinag ng araw...na kahit napagod ka sa kaka detail e feeling good ka sa output ng detailing mo hehehe...

[dbhollanda]

*dbhollanda: walang swirl marks o! nice detail sir!

hehe. hirap talaga ng black na kotse. pag nagdadrive ako at natutukan ng headlights yung isang itim na auto... more often than not puuuuuuuuuuro swirl marks talaga

kaya pag walang guhit guhit saludo talaga

meron pa ring swirl marks yan very fine lang talaga at naalagaan ko ng nanoglos...bilib ako sa carlack twins kasi kaya nyang matanggal ang water marks...tapos sobra bilib ko sa nano twins ma fill up nya talaga ang swirls...

Guys how often should I apply Collinite in my car considering it is enrolled in Big Berts Optiguard Program? Can I also apply Collinite every 3 months simultaneous to the Optiguard maintenance? Or is 3 months overkill? Thank you.

collinite 476 would last 3 months only if there's no rain... usually it lasts 3-4 weeks.

the other collinites are less durable than 476, but are still better than the other OTC waxes

We have the same garage situation. I dust one side of the car..then go to the other side. when i come back..there's dust already accumulating. it's a never ending cycle I'm also using nanogloss and nanosliq on a black car.. great results

What I applied is Collinite 845. So it is safe if I apply Collinite 845 every month?

may DIY cover ako kaya di gano maalikabok. bumili ako ng beach towel mga 16 pcs then pinatahi ko para magdugtong dugtong so yun ang cover ng auto ko tapos saka ko lagyan ng car cover...

microtex duster gamit ko and ginagamit ko 2x a day -- bago ko takpan at after ko after ko tanggalin cover bago umalis...

question po, just to be clear..

1. moms step 1
2. buff
3. nanoglos
4. buff
5. 476
6. buff

san step yung 'wait for 6-8 hrs curing time'? between 3 and 4? or between 4 and 5?

sa 4 and 5.

pag sa 3 and 4 mo ginawa, titigas na yung wax and mahirap i-buff

mga paps, gaano kaya katagal yung effect ng OID lets say hindi naman mauulanan o mababasa..

[jmpet626]

Yung mga mothers clay bar users gaano katagal yung clay niyo? Yung sakin parang lumambot na ng tuluyan at pag ni remold mo siya parang napupunit na yung clay. Gamit ko na lube is ONR na clay lube dilution.

ako yung mothers clay ko eh matagal na sakin roughly 3years na pero ok parin..

while naka stock ini-sprayan ko muna ng mothers showtime...

[Starex_Gold]

Yung Mothers clay hinati ko sa dalawa, yung isa tumagal ng 2 years bago masira

Yung other half isang session ko palang nagagamit..
