    Hi detailing experts

    I was unable to wash my car for more than 2 weeks, since the time when Ondoy was about to strike until today. Luckily I wasn't flooded during Ondoy, but when I was washing my car today, I noticed there's a lot of stubborn rough areas in the paint, as if a very sticky adhesive has just been lifted off the paint in some areas, especially upper portions of the car (hood, roof).

    I already tried washing thoroughly with Meguiars NXT Car Wash, then re-applied some NXT Wax. I'm still disappointed at the results because the rough areas are still rough while the rest of the paint is already very slick. I even followed up the rough areas with Megs UQD, but nothing.

    I suspect it was because of the rain water that stuck onto my paint and was never washed away for weeks, combined with the sticky humidity.

    Will claying solve my problem? Or do I need to resort to polishes or some other treatments?

    Please help. Thanks in advance.

    Bring it to Big Bert`s or any detailing shop for Analysis regarding your paint issue what to be done . They know more about it and encounter it many times that problem.

    Medyo ang daming nagpapa-detail ngayon sa mga shops (dahil ata sa Ondoy pa rin) kaya sana as much as possible I'd like to try what I can do by myself, with some advice from fellow tsikoteers, before I bring it to the pros.

    ang gaas, nakaka ubos ng clearcoat yan.

    buy a Mother's Clay bar set.

    includes 2 clays, QD and MF towel. just follow the instructions

    I've been contemplating on this... gusto ko lang muna makasigurong this will solve my prob, kasi it's not a very cheap product.

    Thanks for the tip.

    SG. as long na huhugasan kaagad, hindi ito makaka apekto sa clearcoat.
