*sir rico
Grabe sir buti pa kayo. Ako 13 days pinakamatagal na tinagal sakin ng 476S eh. Double coat pa yun ha. Pero the 2nd coat was applied 2 days after yata.

Sir bale every week after washing, OCW ginagamit nyo?

[Starex_Gold]

Seryoso ba 'to?



Clear Coat Safe daw??

[Chikselog]

A tamed version maybe?

Tried using the PC 7424xp I got from Sir Ed. Wash, cleaner wax, swirlX, Nano Gloss then OGE... Kakapagod. Nanginginig buong katawan ko sa PC, hehehe

Sir SG, how much yan? I think pang hand application lang cya...

Sir SG, how much yan? I think pang hand application lang cya...

Iwas txt speak/shortcut lang po sir.

Nakalimutan ko yung price. Around 700-900 ata.

Pwedeng by-hand or DA Polisher.

[aejhayl17]

just removed my side skirts that has been with my car since its 1st year ata or less. medyo may discoloration ata or in other words, hindi pantay ang kulay ng body against the panel na naka-attached ang side skirt. and medyo madumi siya, water marks, mud and asphalt sludge and marks, and rugby stains (yup, rugby stains SH_T!) are present.

will post pics ASAP.

any recommended remedies for this? will a full body detailing cure this?


another query:

just browsing the bigberts website the other day,and i saw "Stage 2" and "Stage 3" in their price list? Ano po yun? ano ano po yung mga gagawin sa stage 2 and 3 na yun?

isa pang tanong:

kelan ulit ang session kila sir ed? hehehe

up ko lang po

[jmpet626]

may kapares pa yan meron din siya clear coat safe na polishing compound. Para sigurong ultimate compund at swirl x in paste form.

[Chikselog]

Cleaner wax siguro sir EJ, or compound, depende sa defects.

Yung Stage 2,3 detailing nila BB, yun yata yung compound + polish + wax. Defect removal yun ng whole car AFAIK.

Regarding next detailing EB, ewan ko lang hehe. Pero sana meron this October, sembreak ko na next week!

So totoong clear coat safe?

[jmpet626]

Di ko pa na try kasi pang hand application lang siya.Mukhang ok naman siya dito sa vid. Clear coat safe meaning hindi siguro siya nag cacause ng marring sa paint unlike yung mga rubbing compound ng 3m/turtle wax na na nagiging dull yung paint afterwards.

with OCW you just use it like a QD but on a clean surface, you apply some on the MF first and about just one spray on the panel will do, this will already cover a lot of paint area

as with the Zaino question, it depends z5 can be layered immediately after doing the whole car and removing it from the whole car, once you done, you're ready to layer again starting from the first panel you previously layered, but this is best if left for 4 hours based on experience with the zfx, with Z2 if needs about 4 hours minimum for extended durability and 8 hours recommended, the producer says it can be layered immedaitely after doing the whole car but i don't that it doesn't stack as much when done this way

Clear Coat Safe daw??

Like what JM said, clear coat safe simply means it doesn't induce marring, hazing and dulling once used, this product is a combination of different kinds of abrasives and still needs to be worked on to perform flawlessly.

its actually a great product and although it won't give you marring and hazing it would still lack the gloss so you have to follow it up with the polish which is like its step 2

its very good via hand application pretty much like Megs UC but has an oilier feel and longer working time

this is highly recommended for recessed door handles, door frames, the painted panels inbetween the grills, and etc, basically its great for doing small panels of paints that are basically hard to reach using a buffer, but again follow it up with the polish

i wouldn't really recommend this product for doing the whole car its more likely something you would use for spot treatment and degrimming

this is also one of the better scratch removers we use, better than scratchX in terms of leveling deeper scratches and RIDS

Hope this helps

GREAT JOB!!

i like the hood shot!

but i think you might want to alter you process

Wash, SwirlX, IPA Wipe, Nano Glos and OGE would be fine

if ever it would be

Wash, SwirlX, Cleaner Wax, Nano Glos and OGE

but wash, swirlX, IPA, Nano Glos and OGE is already great

SwirlX already leaves a brilliant finish

Hello, i think he would be free this weekend since so far we still don't have any plans and none scheduled on our calendar

I would recommend you show it to him personally so that he could asses the problem better, that way you could try and find out which one works and which one doesn't as usually we always go the safest route.

pwede kaya gamitin to pantanggal ng very small talsik ng spray paint sa body ng car? ok kaya kung wash, clay, then this product, then yung polishing ng megs din, then maybe nano, carnauba, then nanosliq? -- para pantanggal ng minute talsik ng white spray paint?

[jmpet626]

Kung paint overspray lang kaya tanggalin ng clay bar yan since above surface contaminant ang overspray and hindi masasayang yung clear coat mo
