Detailing Thread [For Newbies][continued 3]

sir silver car din ako. i'd get the KAIO or the Carlack equivalent then yung preferred wax mo na. Its a little expensive narin for me kung twins e... of course sabi nila worth it naman but still.

Parang scary kasi mag DIY ng KSG or Optiseal hehe. If I go that route I'll leave it to the professionals. Pero KAIO/NSC kaya ko pa siguro.

Opti-Seal? Why? It's the easiest product in the world to use - wipe it on, and you're done - no buffing needed unless you apply really, really thickly, and even then, a light wipe with an MF will get any residue off. KSG, by all accounts, is more difficult, but it's a matter of learning how to apply thinly - transfer some to a spray bottle, then one spray per half-panel or so.

Collinite #840, KAIO or Carlack NSC? I'm going to layer Collinite #845 on it. Silver car.

Can one buy just the Carlack NSC or do you have to get the twins? Medyo mahal kung twins eh

You can get NSC by itself.

Natakot lang siguro ako nung pinakita ni Ravi ang syringe :hysterical:

Ah, you're talking about Opti-Coat, which is a different product. Opti-Seal is their paint sealant; Opti-Coat is their permanent paint coating, which does require a bit more care to apply.

applied KAIO then 2 coats of KSG on my Monty. im satisfied w/ the results. mukhang di na ako maghahanap pa ng ibang sealent besides klasse. ano ba recommended na next step after KSG beside collinite 476? hirap kasi maghanap nito. okay kaya yung meguiars?

will apply a third coat of KSG tomorrow pag sinipag ako

Chief, saan ka nakabili ng Klasse products?

Questions mga gurus:

1. Do i need to rinse the car with water after spraying kerosene to clean it before washing with shampoo?

2. Is it ok to put the Collinite 845 in a water spray bottle? Parang watery naman yung 845.

Thanks

1) For me, I rinse the car first to remove some of the kerosene before I wash it with shampoo.

2) Sorry I can't comment on the 845 since I haven't tried it personally.

The Klasse will more than suffice for protection (might want to apply a third layer, just because ), so I'd go for a wax for looks. If it's a darker color, I'd buy either some Turtle Wax Platinum Ultra Gloss paste or Mothers Pure Carnauba paste wax. If it's a lighter color, the Klasse twins should look pretty good by themselves.

Rinsing will make it easier to remove the kerosene, go ahead.

A regular spray bottle will release too much product in on trigger pull. I'd go for a finger pump sprayer, with the caveat that if you don't evacuate the spray tube after use, the 845 can solidify and clog the line (you can evacuate the spray tube by inverting the sprayer bottle, then spraying anything left in the tube out). Also, make sure you use a PET or PVC plastic bottle, not a HDPE or LDPE bottle - the solvents in 845 leak through H/LDPE plastic.

Thanks sir. Will take not of that. Dun kasi sa detailing shop na pinupuntahan ko, they consider liquid wax as paste. So mas mahal labor. 1/2 the price naman pag liquid spray wax. Thats why im thinking of transferring my 845 to a spray bottle instead.

after curing time ng nanoglos, i spray and wipe sliq. why is it nagkakaroon ng streaking and nawawala yung shine? ive also tried diluting it 1:1 water but ganun pa din. sayang yung shine nung wax.

[yourman_2nd]

ako sir, i stop at nanoglos. i only use nanosliq after a week without rain or after driving in a light rain.

yesterday i used nanosliq on two cars, after a week's use with light rains. like a waterless car wash. i was happy with the result. actually i think the shine is better than just water and car shampoo. the swirl marks whre somewhat hidden a bit and the shine was satisfactory. the nanosliq exceeded my expectations. tipid pa ako sa water and shampoo and less than half the time doing the washing, drying and waxing.

yun lang, ,malakas gumamit ng nanosliq and microfiber. pero comparing with the cost of the water, shampoo and wax versus the nanosliq, sulit na sulit. now i need to buy nanosliq by the litter or gallon to refill my sprayer.
