From what I've learned, you could apply a wax (without cleaners) to your new car. It most likely has a *factory paint job* that has already cured at the time it rolled out of the assembly plant.

An *after-market paint finish* is however a different story. Wax application is not recommended until the paint has cured.

I still hope the paint experts would chime in.

Nung pagka-purchased mo ng car, pina-hydrophillic mo na ba nun? Maganda po ba result ng hydrophilic sa new car nyo po?

Clay bar system every 3 months
sealer and glaze every month
carnauba wax every other week

MOTHERS lahat yan.

ako...

big bert's!

tanong mo lang sila kung anong magandang service sa auto mo, based on your car's age and syempre yong gusto mong mangyari. they won't offer you the highest priced service they have. iooffer nila yong talagang dapat sa auto mo.

james, to be honest bro, i can't really notice any difference talaga!! its my first brand new car i had hydrophillic paint done on (i've already had new cars before this civic so i was looking forward to seeing the difference talaga) and to be honest i'm disappointed...i mean yeah when i first picked it up for delivery i was impressed with the overall shine & gloss of the car...but to be honest the Php2K+ i paid for it..i can't see any dramatic results that would make me recommend to anyone getting it..though the car is only 1 month old so i can't give any feedback on any long-term results just yet...but honestly...i'm not 100% impressed with it...

sorry bro..

yung 3M liquid wax na nasa sachet, ok din kaya gamitin yun?

Php39.75 lang kasi. gusto ko sanang i-try.

bago pa naman yung car namin 1 month old pa lang. ayoko naman muna

bumili nung mamahalin kasi hindi pa rin naman ako marunong sa mga wax..
