turtle wax is actually among the cheaper ones here sa Pinas.

bad driver, maybe the "swirls" that you see is just streaking. Or most probably the applicator that you used had some patricles on it..

[bad driver]

btw, there's a KIT CARNAUBA GOLD which has exactly the same packaging as the F1.... only it says Kit instead of formula1. pero lahat pareho... and half the price. 400 ata f1 while -200 lang ang Kit.

cguro linipat na ng carnauba gold ang rights sa Kit.

just spent 3k sa pagbili ng Mother's products sa Han's Shang

hehe... pero sayang, sana online nalang. Just ordered a couple of Cali-car dusters from Autogeek.net. Excited nako. hehe

bossing, yung order mo sa autogeek.net ay pina ship mo dito sa pinas? or someone from states will get it shipped to you or probably bring it home? you might try to check out prestige III kit from them.

[bad driver]

no dude. im quite sure the wax+incompetence caused it

try it for yourself! hehehe. joke.

3K for detailing products? wow..thats something..sana ako maka-budget din for that...hehe goodluck on your mother's products.. pero ano ano ang kinuha mo? phase 1 to 3 ba? lahat yun liquid form di ba?

masama kasi loob ko sa F1 eh. hehe. phase 2-3 lang, a quick detailer para sa ipot ng ibon at butiki (ewan ko ba) and an interior detailer thingie.

My main problem is that my underground garage is actually pretty warm.... come to think of it, medyo mainit lagi ang metals. kailangan ba Cool na cool? hindi pwede medyo warm lang?

hmmm. ok lang, I'll just do it on Sundays over at my in-law's house.

If you see my car, medyo maraming swirls for a 6 month old (black din kasi). 2nd car wash ko palang sa mga "foam" boys eh puro swirls na. kakaiyak. malapit lang ako sa Meguires shaw actually. sana dun ko nalang pinapalinis lagi.

Question lang po, at this point, 6 months, should I bring it to the detailer (big berts or meguires) para "mainstall" ang paint protection system (stages 1-3) and maintain ko nalang with stages 2-3 DIY? Or skip the pro-detailing muna and DIY nalang since fresh pa ang car?

foam wash? that might be one of the causes too...

I say bring it to big bert's as soon as it leaves the casa.

The sealant that they use lasts longer than regular wax. Plus you'll get valuable tips on how to properly use detailing products.

[izzy]

so anong wax ba maganda for regular use lang? and how often do you recommend waxing?

definitely a whole lot better than F1... pero try to apply in really thin coats. mother's (like other products) can be a bear to remove if its thick..

I prefer their synwax over nxt sa ngayon.. hehehe

[caloyski5]

hmmm..yellow bottle na formula 1..used this even before my bigberts days..nagle-leave lang ng parang haze on some parts...used meguiars cleaner tanggal na..bara bara nga gawa ko e..hehe. imo, meguiar's or mothers are the best. imo ha.

ot: tsktsk. racist

[ILuvDetailing]

IMO am not a fan of detailing "Kits", I'd prefer to buy products separately. Although there are very good detailing kits in the market, few of them are available locally. Plus buying separately lets you mix and match and find your bread and butter in detailing...

[BlueBimmer]

try 3M, marginally more expensive than turtle wax, at least reasonable pa price nya...

if you're not confident in your abilities, have a professional make a careful assessment of the surface of your ride. then maybe the pro can suggest a suitable plan of action for you. then, to make things easier, you can have it detailed then just do the regular maintenance afterwards. you can have your PPP installed pa after.. etc..

IMO, at 6 mos., 2 step with clay and polish and you'll be fine but that's just me...
