new delivered car - pwede na ba wax

[CLAVEL3699]

I got my new car last wednesday.

Car wash ko sya bukas pwede ba syang i wax afterwards.

I got 3m car wax.

yes, your paint is not new. it has been sitting in the factory and dealership for quite a long time so treat it like any other paint.

[empy]

now that theveed has answered your question...what car did you get? :D

[alwayz_yummy]

sir theveed, kung newly-painted ang car, ganu katagal dapat muna lumipas bago ka mag-apply ng very-1st coat ng wax?

paano po ang takbo nyan:

new-paint-->cleargloss laquer?-->paint sealant?-->rubbing compound?-->wax

kung mali po, pakiayus ung tamang procedure nyan?

[konde]

pero bago ilabas ng casa, wax muna nila tsaka detail yung car di ba?

hayaan mo munang madumi ng konti. parang bagong sapatos, para hindi pansinin! hehehehe

hmm... better take a look at the detailing thread.

I'm not theveed but here's a answer for that:
new paint as in fresh paint needs time to outgas.. that's around 30-90 days depending on the type of paint, weather conditions, etc. before you can seal it with a wax / sealant.

btw, go for a glaze instead on fresh paint..

kaya siguro sablay ung pintura nung maxima ko....thanx na din...

glaze? paano nagkaiba nun sa wax? (alam ko kasing product: "glide-on-glaze"(di ko lang alam kung ano ang manufacturer, ung nasaparang black na bote))

[theveed]

Polyglaze GOG isn't a glaze in the traditional sense, can't use that.

Please read through the Detailing thread for basic questions.
