Mga sir ano po ba ibig sabihin ng RUBBING COMPOUND CLEAR COAT SAFE?

did you mean rubbing compound, clear coat safe?
kasi abrasive ang rubbing compound, parang sinasabi lang nila na clear coat safe ang rubbing compound nila.

Correct. Exactly what the name says. The product is safe to use for clear coat paint. It is less aggressive than Traditional rubbing compound.

Salamat po sa sagot mga ka tsikot..

learn to wash and dry properly then apply a good brand carnauba wax for protection. tapos i-maintain mo ng quick detailer spray in between washes para ma-retain ang kintab.

if you dont have the means to wash and wax on your own, ipa-wash and wax mo sa mga reputable car wash shops. avoid car wash shops sa mga gilid gilid ng daan, mas lalong magkaka-swirls at scratches kapag pinahugas mo sa mga ganyan.

Thanks. What is the better car shampoo brand to use same with the wax and spray? Ok na din ba ung mga for sale sa Concorde and Blade shops? Ung pasok sa budget at di masyado mabigat sa bulsa. Also any idea ng mga reputable car wash shops sa qc area.

Try mo Microtex na "Wash and Wax", mura lang. although hindi ko pa na-try yung ibang mas mahal na brand, dont know kung may night and day difference sila since i-wax ko pa din naman cya after washing.

[CVT]

bro add ko lang nasubukan kong product as filler. TCUT, sa concorde ko nabili. medyo pricey * 400 php per tube, pero effective sya sa deep scratches (last longer than nano fil). last time i applied was about 2 months ago then top off with collonite 845. btw tipid lang ang pag lagay nito, and for deep scratches na labas na ang primer. it is important to top it off with wax kasi matt ang finish nya once applied. hth mga bros

Nice. May website pala yang TCUT. UK brand, tama ba?

T-Cut - T-Cut Color Fast Scratch Remover

yessir uk brand.
basta pang deep not so wide scratches ok na ok sya

Bros,- ask ko lang,- anyone here who has tried tcut to remove light scratches on a black car?

In my limited experience kasi,- I normally would not touch light scratches on black rides, because they get worse... But I am bothered with the latest light scratch.....

Appreciate your feedback as I plan to buy tcut tonight, and DIY sana... TIA.

Light scratches or swirl marks? For light scratches you can try Meguiar's ScratchX or SwirlX.

Thanks for your responses bros.

Yes, light scratches,- parang nasagi ng bag or something,- and if it is black color,- we all know the consequences in the appearance...

OC kasi ako sa sasakyan,- and since sa likod ito, very visible...

I would like sana to invest in tcut if it is effective... Pero, my previous DIY with light scratches in black car, using Turtle Wax's Scratch and Swirl remover, was a disaster of sort,- as it got worse... Kahit magaan ang pahid,- lalong dumami ang blemish sa black paint.....

So, how was your experience with it, bro.ninjababes? Appreciate your feedback please.

How about with Meguiar's bro. venersky? Did you get back the look of the paint surrounding it?

BTW, my ride is Honda City,- 5-year old,- but with paint just like brand new... really.... so you could just imagine kung gaano ako kaselan sa sasakyan.... hehehe...

Thanks a lot for the help....

Bro CVT kung di ka pa nakabili ito gamit ko




Btw post mo bro yung scratch kasi baka malapad sya for tcut, sayang 400 php :-)

[CVT]

Thanks bro. for sharing your experience.

Bought one last night, while celebrating Mother's Day with the family....

I will try when there's light,- and PM you on the results....

Hopefully,- at par with my expectations...

Will try first on the scratches at the back of the door handles, just to assess how I should do it on the more visible ones....

Saan po mall makakabili ng mothers carnauba paste wax?

[Putengs]

When you say wash and wax (ex. - microtex) meaning applicable sya sa exterior parts of the vehicle including the windshield and other glass parts also the rubber parts like what you do in a typical car wash? Most of the time kasi i wash then wax. i haven't tried the wash and wax brands. Please enlighten my newbie mind. Thanks.

I have a DA machine polisher. For light scratches, I use Megs M205 + polishing foam pads.

wash and wax shampoo means may kasama na o timplang wax yung shampoo. pagkahugas mo makintab na siya but you can still apply your other wax. yes, applicable siya sa lahat ng exterior parts.

Its more of i-eenhance ng wash and wax na shampoo yun existing wax mo. Safe naman siya gamiting sa kahit anong surface ng sasakyan. Use it like sa ordinary car shampoo
