Yep! Your right!
But I already got one?
Thanks for the reply though?
What I meant was on the technical side of things?
Like what you put on the exterior of the car, like wax and stuff?
Those type?
What duster do you use and whats the recommended process for doing such?
Thanks!

Sir just buy a car duster like Microtex, meron sa Ace hardware. Ako after I used my car and hindi naman umulan madali lang matanggal ang dust using car duster then apply QD before I put car cover then next day ready na ulit gamitin, once a week lang ako mag car wash. I also use carnauba wax once a month then QD lang in between waxing. Hope this help.
Pag meron hamog, syempre yung accumulated dust is didikit dun as soon it starts to dry up. Sa akin ang ginagawa ko na lang is let it dry up na lang, and carwash na lang option ko uli.
*UrD3mize: i agree with thx777 with his procedure in maintaining his car, Microtex Duster and then some QD, it doesn't need to be the expensive ones just those that have and provide enough lubrication to lift off the dirt and remove them without inducing scratches and swirls, this is a very effective and safe way of maintaining a car.
I also agree with scharnhorst that dusts are easier to remove with waxed and sealed cars. There are some instances with waxes having static properties and in some cases its the method people apply waxes that causes the static properties like buffing off the wax when its too dry. In either cases static properties attract dirt and there are some waxes and sealants that have anti static properties one of the them available locally is Carlack68 the others you have to order online.
*Antz-z: you can't do much about this but just let it dry, you could wipe the roof with QD and MF cloth but if the source is caused by the morning weather then it would be pointless to wipe it if it would just come back, you could wait until it no longer progresses and then wipe it dry with QD.
*restituto: QD is short for Quick Detailer.
does carlack68 nano systematic care also have sealing properties? once you applied it, how long before you re-apply?
sali ako guys,
every morning clean lang with duster, then wipe gently with clean damp microfibre cloth and instant detailer. every 4th or 5th day, damp MF cloth and spray wax naman. during afternoons, duster nalang to remove dust again. pag meron sticky na dumikit - like bird droppings, etc. - spray the section kaagad with instant detailer then wipe gently with damp MF cloth. during evenings, takip na with car cover.
hindi ko pinatatagal ang dumi, lalo na water spots/marks and something madikit like un nag park ka sa ilalim nang mga trees, pagka uwi cgurado meron small droppings na tumitigas parang clear resin. alis kaagad with instant detailer and damp MF![]()
Guys, help please. Sorry kung medyo out of the main topic.
Sa labas lang kasi nakapark yung car namin & every morning nababasa yung one side ng sasakyan kapag nagdidilig yung kapitbahay namin. I'm planning to wax our car soon. What can you suggest para di matanggal yung wax? Makakatulong ba kung mataas yung water beading property nung wax? What wax can you suggest?
Thanks!
you can try un pure carnauba wax nang mothers (which you apply by hand), for ultimate protection and gloss depth. pag press for time, use mothers instant detailer or spray wax (california gold, FX or reflections), this is the easy way to add gloss and protection.
in my case, spray wax and instant detailer i use almost daily. hand applied pure carnauba wax i use monthly.
you will also see sa mga shops meron un cleaner wax. nun newbie ako ito un recommended nang sales rep sa isang shop, magaling daw maglinis and may wax na at the same time, so binili ko and ginamit... un pala meron mild polish ito, na when you use it regularly uubusin nya unti unti un clear coat mo... loko un sales rep (kidding). you don't have to get this muna...
i use mothers products, satisfied naman ako. price nang mothers medyo mura sa meguires, kaya tama lang sa budget. pero will also try meguires products someday...
mabilis ma strip un wax sa auto, lalo na if you use dishwater soap or tide when cleaning your car. dati ginagawa ko ito sa white van namin when i didn't know any better... i've also read pag gumamit ka nang chamois cloth when wiping your car after washing, nag aalis din sya nang wax.
kaya now when washing my car, hose water and microfibre cloth lang gamit ko. then MF cloth ulit when wiping to dry. then re apply the wax, either by hand or spray wax.
hope this helps![]()
That helps manny31671!
Where did you buy Mothers?
I'm planning to buy the following, do you know how much is their price:
1. Mothers California Gold car wash
2. Mothers Natural Formula Pure Carnauba wax
3. Mothers Showtime instant detailer
By the way, silver yung sasakyan namin. Effective kaya yung 3-step process wax ng Mothers?
Do you have an idea which is more effective, Mothers or Meguiars?
Thanks!
hi sir, i buy mothers sa Blade (here in Marquee mall, Angeles City). balikan kita sa prices sir, forgot kuna... currently mothers palang nasubukan ko, satisfied naman sa results. pero will try meguires someday, medyo pricey kasi
regarding un 3 way process nang mothers, yun step 1 (pre-wax cleaner) and step 2 (sealer & glaze) meron mild polish sir. iwas muna ako sa meron mild polish, sa regular use baka ma diminish un clear coat nang auto.
current regimen ko nang instant detailer, spray wax, and pure carnauba wax ayos na ako. palaging malinis and glossy ang auto ko.
hi sir, kahit under running water lang sa giripo. kahit malinis na, kusot parin kaunti, and squeeze well before using. mas maganda damp para dikit kaagad un road film/dust sa MF cloth. kasi minimal pressure lang when wiping. i fold it twice, pag medyo madumi na isa panel, un malinis naman pang wipe ko. 2 MF cloth gamit ko sa buong auto...
btw, color coded din mga MF cloth ko:
yellow- for body lang nang auto
lavander- pang interior lang
blue- for singit and wheels (ito palagi madumi)
after wiping, i run my fingers sa body to check kung meron pa nakadikit na hindi ko nakikita (embedded minute deposits, tree sap, etc.). usually wala na, no need to use/buy un clay bar nang mothers...
and before wiping with mothers and damp MF cloth, una padin un cleaning with duster, to remove any small debris sa auto na pwede mag scratch sa clear coat.
btw, aside from keeping dust from my car. problem din sa area namin un mga pusakal (alley cats). pumapasok sila sa ilalim nang auto and into the engine para matulog. just last year pinasok nila van ko, then when i turn on the van the next morning, biglang me nag ingay sa loob nang engine compartment. wasak un pusa pero me sinira (aircon and power steering belt). after selling the van last year, pinasok na din nila twice yun auto ko, andami hair nila naiwan sa engine compartment and me scratch marks un plastic engine cover. fearing me sisirain pa sila, baka un mga wires, i got so desperate i now cover my car like this every night-
fully protected na ang auto every night, car cover to keep off dust and pupu nang mga butiki, and plastic screen to keep off pusakals...
me peace of mind na ako before sleeping![]()
