Detailing Thread [For Newbies][continued 3]

[crazy_boy]

As mentioned, particularly if it's new, there's no need for leather conditioners - a good protectant, and frequent cleaning, will suffice. Just be careful enough not to overly scratch and damage your seats. If the leather does start getting cracked, a conditioner might be of some benefit then (since the cracks will be through the polyurethane coating, allowing the conditioner to penetrate into the leather underneath) - but if this is not the case, a leather conditioner is counterproductive, it only attracts more dirt.

Umi, sir, what kind of protectant would you suggest? Thanks.

I thought conditioner is as good as protectant. Hindi pala hehe

Mas okay ba yung Wash and Wax dun sa normal na shampoo lang?

I use the ACE washmitts and Microtex Shampoo na nirecommend ni Sir Jason (yung TS). Paubos na yung shampoo though so if this new one's better, I'll give it a try.

di ko pa nasubukan e... pero si sir EuroFD here has tried it and highly recommends it. he's a fellow member rin ng pinoydetailing. siya tsaka sila umi yung mga halimaw sa ganito kaya i follow their practices.

ayoko ko pa bumili ng bagong shampoo ubusin ko muna NXT ko. yung regular 'Tex shampoo is pretty ok narin, I'm sure the new one's better.

Microtex Sunshield is an ok product, and inexpensive. Optimum Protectant/Leather Protectant is a good product - check out pinoycarcare.com for the distributor of Optimum products in the Philippines.

The new Microtex Wash and Wax uses the same shampoo base as the original Microtex shampoo - just with added some wax that will help add some gloss and and slickness, as well as help prolong whatever LSP you have on the car

You had a typo error, I guess you meant 476. That's why I am really, really itching to try that Collinite, even just the 845 for easier application, due to their durability. I tried cleaning the car today since the dirt was so thick, I could already plant camote.hehe I have decided to use Meguiar's NXT shampoo and usually I never had problems with it and it's good with our hard water. But today, the water was ridiculously hard and 2 ounces weren't enough. It literally leaves watermarks right after rinsing. I have decided to shampoo it again but I made it 3 ounces, that solved it. When the weather normalizes, I will really try that Collinite.

tinesting ko kasi yung mga wax na nandito sa bahay...
megs nxt tech 2.0
mothers final wax step 3
ultimate wax
lastly collinite 476

4 days na nasa labas sasakyan, 12 hours exposed to rain for around 5 days....
parang takot yung tubig dun sa panel na meh collinite.. after mo tuyuin yung panel, madulas pa din like nothing happened for 4 days.

yung other panel with the other 4 products considerable na nabawasan na beading, especially the ultimate wax and mothers.

[dfopiso]

Microtex Wash and Wax shampoo ... mataas lang ng P50 sa dating Wash only

[miko101130]

Prefered ko din microtex shampoo.. Mura and yet mas maganda compared to other shampoo na mas mahal... Hindi nakaka nipis o tangal nang wax...

[dfopiso]

mas sulit yata ngayon yung Wash and Wax ... P50 lang difference sa halagang ~P200

I wanna try this wash and wax shampoo as well. I have the Meguiar's Ultimate Wash and Wax and I really like how the car looks right after washing. If this Microtex Wash and Wax would give the same or almost at par results, that would be great since it is way cheaper. Even just their ordinary shampoo, it never failed me and the result is almost similar to Mothers and Meguiar's. Actually I just finished the bottle a few weeks ago.

payo kasi ni Vince ng BB yung Microtex

[Retz]

okay ba ung "auto magic" car wax?

[umi001]
