Sir patulong naman. Nag kakawatermarks kaagad ang 4 days old na totl everest 2015 ko after lang pag car wash ko gamit ung turtle wax shampoo concentrated. Sumubra cguro ung mixing ko sa shampoo at tagal bago ko na banlawan kasi natagalan ako pag linis ng rim and tires.

Whole body talaga ang mga bakat pati na sa headlights, windshield and chrome sa grilles and tail gate.

Takot ako ipa galaw sa detailing baka gamitan ng abrasive compound mabawasan ang clear coat at baka mag kaka swirl marks.

Na try ko na yung distilled white vinegar in 1/3 ratio (1 part vinegar and 3 parts water) pero ayaw talaga matangal. Yung mga bakat para siyang natuyo na wax na nag kalat sa buong katawan.

Patulong naman mga sir sa safe na pag tangal sa watermarks naiwan sa turtle wax shampoo..

I use Carpro Spotless to remove such watermarks. Its safe on paint , plastic , chrome , glass.

did you wash under the sun?


Anyways just done a 25min quick wash with meg uww with 2buckets. My fastest imo. I had a bucket with meg uww and 6 wash mits. I intended to use one wash mit per area. I dont have a grit guard so i just set aside the dirty wash mit.

Rinse-soak-rinse-wash-rinse2x then waffleweave.

Megs uww leaves a good shine...

sa province, you can bring your own wash mitt and drying towels (microtex is good) at yun ipagamit mo. then instruct mo sila to wash your car from top to bottom and use two buckets. piliin mo na lang yung may pinakamaayos na gamit sa kanila (pressure washer, vaccum dryer etc) then kausapin mo yung tagahugas bigyan mo na lang ng tip. i did that before and now kapag nagpahugas ako alam na nila may sarili akong gamit, pati nga shampoo at wax may dala ako ;) btw, you cant get rid of swirls, you can only minimize it...

Kung galing byahe tapus maulan then pag uwi subrang dumi na. Tama ba na rinse ko muna by hand tapus wash mitt with shampoo na? Or shampoo and wash mitt na diritso.

Let the car cool down, rinse any mud or thick dirt with water from hose or pressure washer, from top going down, never use your hand, you will just rub the dirt on paint and cause scratches all over

Use car shampoo with wash mitt and two bucket method

2nd consecutive day wash. 2bucket method. Just gliding the mitts. Hardly any pressure on the paint. Clean and shiny 😊

[ninjababez]

siguro mga 2x a year ko lang makita mag wax itong kapitbahay ko. pero sobrang ganda ng paint nito sa actual

[StockEngine]

For collinite 2x a year lng. I dont think traffic causes a lot of damage to the top layer. Highway miles causes much of the contact-damage aside from washing.

Which is the better clay bar kit? Mothers 07240 California Gold Clay Bar System OR Meguiar's G1016 Smooth Surface Clay Kit? I've never tried claying before

Hello Guys!

I just want to know kung saan magandang magpaayos ng front plastic bumper ng innova 2015 namin? May tama na kasi yung bumper namin nakasagasa ng bato yung dad ko nung gamit nya yung sasakyan, which is nagdimple with matching gasgas. Though naibalik na sa dati ung dimple to normal form. Ang problema namin ay nabiyak siguro hinliliit ng daliri sa kamay if icocompare pero malaking deformation ang nangyari. Nawala sa allignment yung bumper namin. Kumbaga napike yung front plastic bumper namin. Ano kaya ipa-cover namin sa insurance? or sa labas na lang? Inaalala ko din kasi kaya gusto ko na ipagawa kasi yung plastic na nagpoprotect between sa tire and foglamp ay nawala din sa alignment. I will also send pictures para maganda hehehe.. Ayun at magkano kaya if ever ang singil if sa labas ipapagawa? BTW i'm from Calamba, Laguna so sa mga taga South jan. Please feel free to suggest! Thanks in advance!

PS: Di ko alam if dito ipopost tutal e exterior detail problem naman ito hehe ^^
