Question on carwash

[tawengo]

nope.. thin yung strands nya na may parafin wax.. saka igglide mo lang yung as car - not rub. the duster picks up the dirt..

yung mga normal duster kasi, made of fine plastic strands or the feather dusters, walang wax so magkakagasgas talaga.. and these types of dusters just push the dust parang walis.

basta gagamitin mo lang sa dry dust and you'll be fine.. basta pag nabasa ang kotse di na dapat dina-dust lang.. wash it.

nasagot din tanong ko! salamat po! super alikabok kasi dito sa bukid namin and i've read sa ibang threads na dry wiping is a big no-no. i'll buy a duster mamya. kaso yung nakita ko na car duster dito is not "california", nakasulat dun is microfiber duster. ok na kaya yun? i think its from china.

another thing, how do you know na may parafin wax yung duster?

[NazQ]

^^microfiber.. baka di ganun ka effective. i can only speak for the cali car duster kasi yun ang nagamit ko. malalaman mo kasi pag bago sya, mejo moist pa sya at pag hinawakan mo yung strands nag l-leave ng residue sa kamay mo.. that's why the instructions say to let it air out for i think 2 days..

Question lang ulit sir, san ba makakabili nito? How much? meron ba sa concorde?
Thanks.

^^wala nyan sa concorde.. sa Hans Shangrila or sa accredited shops ng Mother's (pwede mo i PM is MOMSPH)..
1K to 1.5K. mejo mahal sya pero worth it, years mo gagamitin. kahat dumumi ng todo ok parin.. detailers also use this product. its cheap considering ang tagal mo sya gagamitin..

edit: check other Car Finder or other boards like HCP, MyMitsu, etc.. may mga sellers nyan at a cheaper price..

katulad ng sinabi ni boss theveed, if in doubt, wash it.

[artpogi]

just to share..i dont use car shampoo..no matter what it says in the label...it is still chemical..it'll fade ur carpaint in the long run..a friend of mine who is very good in taking care of his car told me..just to wash my car with plain water only...and since dust can be very abrasive, never make punas of ur car without wetting it first..and i mean wetting it thoroughly so as to make the dirt soft before u use those cleaning towels...then after sponge/towel washing with running water..towel it dry with the proper towel for drying...and it is advisable to wax ur car only every 6 mos...3mos the shortest.

:huh: :huh:

spongee,

I don't mean to be rude, but as far as that "car-shampoo-will-fade-your-paint" thingy mentioned by your friend, its pure B-A-L-O-N-E-Y

[mmanson]

may chemicals nga ang car shampoo. but in right formulation. and kaya may "rinsing part" e. siyempre you will not let the car shampoo dries up on your paint so, kasama ng dirt yung car shampoo sa drain. parang pag nagto-toothbrush ka. idudura mo rin naman yung toothpaste (na kasama ng germs) after.

[theveed]

The "chemical" statement is quite silly actually, H2O itself is a chemical.

yep ms.spongee para sa yo yun.. churi

Use a sponge or better yet a wash mitt.. pero mas maganda kasi pure shampoo kung mas mabula ang gusto mo..

ok..speaking of wash mitt..ano ba maganda???kasi i'm using the triple combo ng microtex...yung pangwash na saksakan ng bigat pag nabasa, yung pang glass and interior at yung pang dry....

ganito kasi ang washmitt. yung binili mo if im correct is a microfiber towel / chamois / something na 3 in 1 combo pack. which is actually good too, maganda naman yung microtex na brand.

you can just use the microfiber towel to scrub the car with, just try not to let small stones/sand stay in it while you scrub the car, kasi yun ung gagasgas sa paint mo.

if you can, kung malakas ang water pressure nyo sa bahay. try to blast and rinse the dirt / mud of your car before you scrub it with shampoo.

[mmanson]

or use a 2 bucket system.

The cali car duster costs P1,785.00 at Hans Tools in Shangrila mall.

hmmm. mukang nagtaas na sila.. just take note na there are two basic types. plastic handle (cheaper) and wooden (more expensive but i think there are more fibers). either way if you are the type na hindi mapakali pag may alikabok yun kotse and you resort to washing the car as much as possible, sulit na sulit ang cali car duster as an alternative to washing.

it takes me 15 minutes at the most to dust the car..

[rudyphoto]

may pics ba kayu ng cali car duster dyan ? TY
