    Paging TheVeed:

    Boss, I just bought a Black Honda City 2006 last May.
    Unfortunately, masyadong sinipag ang mother ko. For the first 2 weeks, panay ang punas using ordinary rags. As a result, puro minor scratches.

    May ilang minor (but visible nevertheless) scratches din na nasagap habang nasa car park.

    What can you recommend to do about it. In case I bring it to Big Berts, how long will it take to restore (and "seal") the paint? Will OPTIGUARD do the trick?

    Thanks!

    Well, if all you're concerned with is the towel marring, just use a good cleaner wax and it'll essentially hide most of it very well, and you'll be happy again.

    With regards to OptiGuard, please visit our site for clarification of the service.

    As for the real cause of your problem, you'll need to tell your mom to take it easy on the Civic's soft paint hehe.

    Good luck!

    hirap talaga pag black car. siguro kita ng mom mo nadapuan na ng alikabok kaya pinunas niya lagi. Tell you mom ikaw nalang maglilinis ng car mo and sakay nalang siya.

    Your mom is thoughtful, next time ihanda mo na lang mga gamit na pwede pang punas like microfibre towels or cali duster.

    Thanks TheVeed. What particular cleaner wax can you recommend for black car?

    I may still have to bring it to big berts though, not just for the moderate scratches, but also for protection. Mga ilang oras kaya ang session (optiguard?). Bababa pa kasi ako ng bulubundukin ng Cavite

    Sinubukan ko na ring mag-prepare ng MicroTex. Ang kaso, makakatayo na sa dumi yung microtex, tuloy pa rin kaya nakaka-gasgas pa rin. Hay! Medyo kulang kasi sa libangan sa lugar namin kaya pampalipas oras na niya ang maglinis ng oto at ng bahay.

    Ang siste, pagka-garahe ko, linis agad ako oto just to make sure na hindi mangagapal ang microtex.

    ReSmile,

    Hehehe, kung puwede nga lang eh. Kaso, medyo aloof sa technology at ni hindi nagka-interes mag-cellPhone man lang. Kaya nga bumalik ako sa ancestral home para may makasama sila (my auntie).

    Ayun, ang routine lang e luto, linis bahay, linis oto, alaga apo, nood tv.

    Kelseat,
    Medyo nagi-ipon pa ako matapos magpa-setup ng audio. Pero next project ko nga siya. Inform kita pag ready na akong magpalit.
