Detailing Thread [For Newbies][continued 3]

[Picard]

Ano ba magandang wash and wax. I have seen brands like Armor, Micro Magic, Simoniz, Mothers, Formula 1. Ano ba okay?

Kung car shampoo na wash and wax, pwede na yung Turtle Wax. But it's not a direct replacement sa wax talaga. After mo mag car wash, it's still recommended to wax, as in wax and buff. Mothers, Meguiars, Eagle One, TW Platinum tsaka TW Ice and magagandang brands.

newbie question po...

Got lots of swirls and light scratches sa Advie ko which is just 1 mo old. dahil sa nag carwash sakin 3 silang nagkakagulo sa sasakyan ko. isang carwash boy, isang babaeng taga tanggap ng bayad tsaka yung babaeng may ari na tumulong lang na gumamit ng yellow na basahan na ginagamit sa sahig. This is Protech sa Cainta. yung babaeng tagatanggap ng bayad tinukuran pa yung dulo ng hood kase di nya abot yung windshield.


back to topic

it is ok na pa detail sya, i have a friend na may detailing shop.
He told me we can do it step by step kung saan mawawala yung scratches also protect the clear coat.

They also detail my wife's 9 - year old Advie, ganda ng texture even you wipe it dry no swirls parang dumudulas lang.
I also want that protection with my advie, then ako nalang mag mamaintain using the things I've learned here.

I worrying kase sa clear coat eh...

Ok lang naman pa-detail sa mga detailing shop. The question is kung anung materials and gamit nila sa pag apply ng chemicals tsaka pang buff. Hand-applied or buffing machine. Hindi masisira ang clear coat sa simpleng clay+polish+wax na hand-applied. Ingat lang pag ginamitan na ng buffing machine tapos gagamitan pa ng rubbing compound.

Detailing (wash-clay-polish-wax-buff), unless aggresive rubbing compound is used, will simply hide light scratches and swirl marks from the naked eye. It will NOT remove scratches.

para saan ung pranela?? pamunas ng basang pwet??

Ang pranela ay simpleng basahan na iba iba ang kulay at hindi dapat ginagamit na pang car wash / pang wax / pang buff dahil magagasgas sasakyan mo at magkakaron ng swirl marks.

For car washing and buffing, the best pa din microfiber. For polish / wax application, the best pa rin ang microfiber o kaya foam applicator.
