Di na ko gumagamit ng Ultra Plush or plush sa pang buffoff ng wax. Gamit ko na lang yung Yellow MF's from SNR na naka 36 pack.

Yan ung Pro-Force na brand sa SnR??? Hindi ba cya swirl inducing? I'm thinking of getting this na lang kasi mahal microtex...

Yung color yellow sya na 16x16 towels.Eto na gami ko pang buff off ng wax no swirls so far at walang naiiwang fibers unlike sa plush na may naiiwan pa. SInce mura lang siya madaling palitan pag nanigas na yung fibers.

thanks for the headsup paps..

natanggal ko na siya bro...sinunod ko yung payo mo na hindi masyado lubricated yung clay..yun mabilis kumapit yung mga lisa..

dun naman sa vinegar on MF, tuwang tuwang ako dito kasi balik lambot and yung pagka fuschia nung mga MF ko....bili na lang ako ng distilled vinegar sa pasukan...

tomorrow mag 3rd coat ako ng 915...(nakaka virus itong thread na ito)...
pero ok na ito para ma-divert yun attention ko from getting CF hood and intake...waaa...pera pera...

if that's the case you should hit it with a less aggressive polishing product for the fine swirls. what color is your car? what did you use to apply 3mASR?

the color of my car is silver-beige. I used a soft terry cloth on the application. Should I use something else? i believe the swirls being left was caused by the cloth i used, or I maybe wrong. Not so sure.

your "very fine scratches" could be swirls. Swirlx is better suited for that and final corrections.
take pictures of a scratch. work 3mASR with an MF/foam applicator pad til it clears or almost dries. repeat til the scratch is corrected. take pictures of that area showing whatever remaining blemish you see. you should omit it if it really doesn't work for you.

I think the product works well. The targeted fine scratch was gone but are left with finer scratches/swirls, similar to "cobweb" effect. Is that normal for a 3m auto scratch remover to do?

how do you look for the swirls? i mean what light do you use and how.

use the terry cloth with soap on a small area, rinse, dry and check before and after. if it induced swirls, don't use it on paint. just use microfiber.

it's not normal cos i used it a few times without those issues. have you found the areas untouched by your cloth without the swirls like those of the treated area?

pictures would help.

oops, i forgot about the cd test. rub your cloth on a scratch-free underside of a cd and see if the cloth scratches it.

Hi detailers

Ano tamang gamitin pang buff ng wax, cleaner wax, sealant...etc

"Plushy microfiber or psedo butas-butas microfiber(yung square na bako bako)

After using pwede pa ba mahugasan ito at gamitin ulit or disposable na once malagyan ng wax?

MF Plush ang pang buff... You can wash it for re-use

yung clay bar ba ilang session na gamitan? anong lubricant ginagamit don?

paps, sakin ONR gamit ko..

45 ml : 1 liter of purified water


as for the session, for me tuwing magzero out ako...and that would mean quarterly...
(newbie lang po ako sa layering and bonding ha kaya opinion ko lang ito) kasi very harsh environment natin kaya feeling ko madali matanggal agad ang wax and sealant and ma-contaminate yung paint..

wait for natin opinion ng mga sophomores and experts..hehe

hmm parang ang pagkakabili ko sa akin e 1.2k ec and 1.4k lls sa BB araneta ave. di ako namamahalan kasi for the benefit naman ng car natin ito. at yung presyo na yan e di naman 1 time ur 2 time use. years yan bro...

I know right sir. I was talking about the 200 Pesos difference. Kaya ako namamahalan kasi they're giving the lls to me for 1600, while you only got it for 1400.
