    A cheaper alternative for your tires would be the Armor All (New and Improved). Yup mahal talaga ang Meguiars. I suggest you do the waxing first by hand then after you improved your skills then you switch to the machine, also get some foam / MF applicators for the wax. Waxes available in the market are Mothers Carnuba, Meguiars, Eagle One, Fusso, etc. dami pa, I think Mothers and Eagle One are available in Bigberts so you may want to ask them about it.

    since its silver, avail of the Paint Protection Program ng BB.. bagay na bagay dyan sa silver. it'll make it pop. While you're at it, get their car shampoo as well.

    as for MF, microtex makes good ones.. you can get them sa true value, ACE, BigBert's...

    as for waxes, hmm it's better if you check out the detailing thread. medyo mahaba na discussion dun and you'll pick a few do's and don'ts.

    Maganda sa umpisa pa lang may protection na kaagad. and, that color is easy to maintain unlike the darker ones. also, when it comes to durability, waxes and sealants tend to last longer on these colors.

    Thanks Theveed!

    I have done a lot of research already, that's why I was able to summarize practical things I need to buy and saved a lot, with your help. Am just afraid of waxing because I never did this. I'll just observe how your staffs do it when I visit tom.

    Never washed a car before, but I did it 2X already using informative tips from the forum, and am getting used to it at the same time enjoying it...

    You'll enjoy it more over time... :D

    Especially when your car gets older and you see it looking like it's new while a similar, if not newer car beside you looks old :D
