Detailing Thread [For Newbies][continued 3]

+1 ako bro sa OCW though new user palang ako ng OCW..i've tried several spray wax and for me ok ang OCW...as if nag double wax ako...

parang na-addict na nga ako sa OCW bro kasi tonight eh parang gusto ko ulit mag-apply...

based on feedbacks i have read dito sa forum, easy to apply and no buffing.
So less time & effort for waxing, and ang ganda pa ng results na similar sa ibang wax na matrabaho. kapag ganyan, nakakaadik nga.

im planning to get Optimum products from sir edwin. para masubukan..

i'm sure you'll like the results of OCW just like me... but just like the other waxes i've tried, it attracts dust very much that's why i use Showtime a lot between carwash to repel dust... :-)

how so geargeD? what are the other waxes? after Showtime, there's less dust attraction? I notice dust but close to the weekly wash day so i don't QD much. Sometimes i just hose/pressure washer then dry with a sacrificial chamois next. better the chamois cos it's easier to clean cos i just flap it about like a matador ;)

tried megs (NXT and carnauba), mothers (FX Synwax, Carnauba and Reflections) and microtex (Nanogloss and Sliq) waxes, even ONR, but the dust-repelling action of showtime is not comparable with them... i live in a place where there is an on-going housing devt nearby and so, passes by a very dusty road on sunny days and muddy on rainy days...
following the advise of mike phillips of autogeek (see his article here: http://www.autogeekonline.net/forum/...r-s-paint.html), i used showtime and noticed that dust attraction was minimized. i'm pretty sure about this coz before i always get my pants dirty, above the knees part when i put/get things from the back of the montero due to dust (with carbon) accumulation on the bumper and tail gate cladding...
now, i use showtime even after putting wax and after a carwash... :-)

thanks. pano pag muddy, do you immediately get into detailing mode or do just a hose off?

i can only remember most of the debris/dust are gone after a fast run. i'll check that again, about static, the ground rod, and QD instead of rewax if the paint has no waterspots.

just about every suv owner has that trouble with the rear wheel arches.

pag-muddy, i slow-down to that area, and then immediately hose-down the lower part pagdating sa bahay at wash it now with EO Easi-Dri... before, i use ONR but now switched to showtime... :-)
