DA9000W Dual Action Polisher Complete kit - Waxed Shine

Got the DAS5 dual action polisher. Solid build w/ variable speed. Thanks for referral. Also got the Wolfgang 3.0 Sealant & Collinite 915. After applying sealant, how long should I allow for curing before application of 915?

taken from autogeek,

3. Apply Wolfgang Deep Gloss Paint Sealant 3.0 over the entire vehicle either by hand or with a machine. If applying by hand, use a yellow foam applicator. If applying by machine, use a blue finessing pad. Using a dual action polisher, set the maximum speed to 4.5 and work in overlapping sections until the entire vehicle is covered. Apply a very thin, even coat.

4. Once the vehicle is covered, wait 30-45 minutes before buffing off the sealant. Use a microfiber towel or a microfiber bonnet on your polisher.

5. This product is moisture-sensitive. In order to achieve a slick, durable finish, Wolfgang Deep Gloss Paint Sealant 3.0 must cure for at least 12 hours before being exposed to moisture. Do not apply sealant before dusk because dew will interfere with the adhesion to the paint. Park your vehicle in a garage or under a shelter while it is curing, if possible.

You're welcome. Just apply it the next day.

Not sure where to ask, We're planning to have our old Isuzu Crosswind have a washover before we sell it, are there any shop that you guys recommend that can do the job? The car badly needed a wash over (few dents, deep scratches, fading paints).

Thanks

you do claying only when yung paint surface mo ay magaspang na ang marami ng nakadikit na contaminants like stubborn dirts, brake dust, asphalt, paint sprays etc. you can test it using your palms o kung may zip lock plastic bag ka isuot mo sa kamay and pasadahan mo ng haplos. maganit yan kung contaminated na paint mo. kung mag-clay ka na now, skip mo na kung meron ka na kaio at ksg. saka ka na mag-clay ulit after 3 or 6 mos siguro or if you feel na rough na naman yung paint surface mo;)

Thanks po sir monty_GTV

Claying I believe will not only remove contaminants but also strip/remove most if not all sealants/waxes on your carpaint. So wala "protection" yung surface ng clearcoat/paint mo. I make sure na after ko mag clay either compund,polish,protect yung paint or clay/protect yung paint.

KAIO I believe has cleaners, di ko lang alam kung pwede mo siya isubstitute sa claying, yun nga lng malamang matatanggal yung M step 3 mo ni KAIO o nung repeat claying mo, sayang lng. The best route i believe with your products is clay, M step 2, KAIO, KSG, then LSP mo si M step 3

Mothers step 2 and ksg are redundant. Forego m step2.

[butchyboy]

Mothers step 2 and ksg are redundant. Forego m step2.

Mother's step 2 is a polishing/glazing product and KSG I believe is a sealant. Step 2 will give your paint minimal to no protection. Di sya magcocompound so kung may mga swirl marks/defects kitang kita yan. Step 2 can hide those swirl marks but might not correct it. KSG and step 3 ang sigurong redundant but I like the shine that carnauba waxes give compared to sealants, but most sealants are more durable compared sa waxes. Pwede rin siguro after KAIO diretso na sya sa step 3 kaso sayang naman KSG niya.

Is it better to have a new car to be paint protected (like BB's new car paint protection) or wash and wax/seal regularly will suffice?

And if I go for paint protection, how long should it take before wax/seal can be applied?

Thanks..

Ayy oo nga sir, I stand corrected. Thanks. Step 2 is for paint correction. Mistaken it for a sealant. :P Agree with you on the KSG but another layer of wax won't hurt.

Wash and wax/seal will not remove all the contaminants in your new car ( I do believe na kahit bago pa yang car, I assume na naexpose na sya sa environment unless nakuha ko sya fresh from the factory ) so technically you will layer your sealant or wax on top of contaminants/pollution etc. That will compromise the looks and durability nung wax/sealant mo.

Ang ginagawa ng paint protection is to remove as much as possible all these contaminants so that immaculate yung clearcoat/paint surface mo, so that pagapply nung sealant/wax maprepreserve yung looks nung immaculate paint mo plus dadagdag pa niya yung depth/shine nung sealant/wax. Correct me if I am wrong pero pag may involved na correction ( swirl marks/defects removal) eh detailing na tawag?

Kaya nga yung iba therapeutic sa kanila pag dedetail ng sasakyan because they get some satisfaction/gratification on their work ;). Night and day panu difference pag maganda prep sa paint tapos papatungan mo ng sealant/wax ( IMHO except on a white paint unless sobrang napabayaaan) ;)

BB New Car Paint Protection (0-2 months old) = Premium Wash + Paint Claying + German Acrylic Paint Sealant

BB also has a year-round paint protection program named 'Optiguard' for new and old vehicles. It consists of 4 sessions which is 1 full exterior detailing session + 3 maintenance sessions.

Full exterior detailing = Premium Wash + Paint Claying + Paint Correction + German Acrylic Paint Pre-sealant + German Acrylic Paint Sealant.

i think this 'German Acrylic Paint Pre-sealant' refers to Klasse AIO while 'German Acrylic Paint Sealant' refers to Klasse High Gloss Sealant Glaze. as we all know, both products are acrylic-based and manufactured in Germany. please correct me if i am wrong.

As already mentioned above, a new car still needs to be clayed. If you are willing to DIY, then just follow the 3 steps of BB New Car Paint Protection.

And if I go for paint protection, how long should it take before wax/seal can be applied?

It depends on how much the paint gets abused or exposed to the sun and environment contaminants. Using quick detailers and spray waxes in between car washes can extend protection. You can do proper detailing session every 3 months similar to the Optiguard program.

Hi all,

What product can you recommend for maintaining plastic grills and chrome/plated parts? and is there any way to prevent headlights from yellowing? Thanks.

[artsky]

Guys, ok din ba yung ultimate filling system ng microtex?

1. NanoFIL
2. NanoSIL.
3. NanoGLOS
4. NanoSLIQ.

Hi all,

What product can you recommend for maintaining plastic grills and chrome/plated parts? and is there any way to prevent headlights from yellowing? Thanks.

use the same polishes/waxes/sealants for chrome plated parts

grills will benefit from anti-uv dressing. water spots is its main uglifier though.
thoroughly wipe it dry every wash and blast it with air to dry tight gaps or;
find out how to disassemble the part. it will look new again anytime with a spraycan of non-gloss black paint.

the headlight clear cover can be protected by applying sealant/wax with anti-uv or painted with clearcoat; inside to guard against UV from halogen/HID bulbs, outside, against UV from the sun.
