Hello po mga sir tanong ko lang kung meron bang advantages ang synthetic wax over Carnuba wax or is it just a matter of preference?

Matter of preference.

ito po yung pic incase hindo mo pa nakita
thanks bro

hi, I am not an expert but you can try rubbing compound on that area. possible you can lessen or remove that if is bird dropping. this problem also happen to me because my car is always parked outside of our house and I park it under the tree. always encounter bird dropping but not like that. I can easily remove it after i wash my car and if there is still stain I use rubbing compound in that area alone

^It does look similar to acid etching from bird droppings. You can try buffing with polish or rubbing compound. If hindi ma-fix, then repainting na solution.

It looks like it grows more visible every year like faded paint signs?

Meg's GoldClass carnauba + nanosliq ang gamit ko, job done naman sir. a lot cheaper *297 petot / 500ml as compared to the leading/higher end brands. i have no plan to switch atm... unless i've gone impulsive lang siguro.

[harold13]

Okay.good to hear benchman.

Hmm, that's alarming if it is indeed growing.

concentrated products like Ultima and ONR are still way cheaper than ready to use QD products. For Ultima WW+ with 1:44 dilution ratio, diluted product will only cost less than P50/liter.

[jhnkvn]

Correct. What I advice is buy a concentrate and just get what you need then sell the rest. There's usually buyers naman the market for detailing stuff is bigger than you think.

[benchman]

hmmm... i did back reading for quite pages though i haven't seen any about those concentrated stuffs. how much that Ultima cost?

Per Ginnova's ad in OLX:

UWW+ 8oz = P700 (Aftermarket bottle)
UWW+ 16oz = P1200 (Aftermarket bottle)
UWW+ 16oz = P1400 (Original sealed bottle)
