less than a month old bro. 1st wash ko kasi was under the sun, kaya natuyo sya bago na_rinse. pina quick detail ko and paint protect kaso nga lang di natanggal yung iba, or nadagdagan nun umulan.

san mo pinagawa sir quick detail & paint protect? mukhang kailangan dyan ng mas professional na regimen. i'm not an expert pero bakit sila nag-seal/protect kung hindi nila naayos muna yung blemishes/watermarks ng paint mo sir.
they have to strip off kung ano man yung in-apply nung nag-detail para ma-address muna yung watermarks at kung ano pa man meron then proceed to protection.

LSP = Last Step Product / Last Step Process / Last Step Protection

e.g. Carnauba wax, Sealant, Paint Coatings

Got it thank you ulit red_one

'if you want something done right, you gotta do it yourself'. this saying may not really mean everything you've done is right, it means you do what you think needs to be done. they will not 'stay done' though as you would soon discover with detailing.

and generally you'd be lucky to find someone who would take better care of your car than yourself.

bro natanggal ko na, or natakpan ko na yung nasa roof and hood na watermarks and swirls, using a friend's recommended carnuaba wax. problem is the minor scratches on the hood. alam ko kaya ito ng rubbing compound.(as ive seen videos online na mas malala pa sa case ko) kaso di ko alam paano gamitin yun ng tama. tried it before and nadagdagan ko lang yun damage :banghead::banghead:

*ninjababez: Never use rubbing compound to remove isolated scratches. Start with the least aggressive product first.

Heavy compound (Most aggressive)
Medium compound
Medium polish - Scratch remover, Swirl remover
Light polish (Least aggressive) - Cleaner polish, Finishing polish

btw di natanggal nung carnuba yung swirl marks and scratches sa hood. gusto ko sana subukan yung microtex nano something na pang fillup ng scratches kaso baka masayang 400 php hehehe

bro question, diba mas agressive yung scratch remover ng 3m vs. turtle wax rubbing compound?
