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?

^^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.

: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

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** · May 4th, 2007 02:54 PM

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