"Tamang OC lang" - a newbie's guide to car appearance maintenance

[kai s.]

Afaik ok lang, you "protect" the glaze with wax or sealant eh
Sa mothers nga, polish, glaze then wax.
Glaze yata nagpapaganda/tingkad ng paint (cmiiw).

From what I read sa ibang detailing forums, mas matagal daw naglalast yung sealant/glaze, ito yung primary na nagpoprotect ng newly polished topcoat and nagpapakintab rin. Yung pagwax after, to give more depth of color and a more brilliant shine.

1. A glaze is simply paint beauty oils. It enhances the look of your paint.

2. The whole sealant versus wax debate is simple: nobody has walked up to me and correctly guessed that my car is on a wax/sealant. Personally, just go for the value-durability picks.

3. Meg's ULW is a synthetic sealant. It goes extremely thin being a consumer product and there's not much point in layering the KSG with it.

4. I applaud to whoever coats their car with a spray wax 2-3 times a week. That's a lot of time invested. I would recommend you get a longer lasting spray wax though -- even a diluted 845 in a spray bottle would last longer than 10 coats of Nanosliq.

Hello.😀😍😜ok lng ba ipatong ang meguiars liquid wax over klasse sealant glaze? I've read kasi in a forum na ang meguiar's liquid wax is actually a sealant din. Baka reduntant na.sealant over another sealant? I hope someone can clarify my thoughts on this.

Magkaiba ba ang spray wax sa QD? Pwede every carwash/once a week?

Different.

There are two types of QD though since "quick detailer" is a broad term. There's two of them: cleaner QDs and "spray" wax QD. Though both of them can clean your paint surface by immediately lubricating the surface before you wipe it with a MF towel. It's just that one leaves a thin layer of protection while the other one doesn't.

I do multi towel wash method every two days. I have a good sealant kaya pwede. And the wash method i do is safe.

Pwede daily wash if done right.

Dry alcohol that you applied on your hands before touching the steering wheel or shift knob to prevent yung mabakbak yung leather. No need to use fancy leather cleaner and conditioner sometimes they tend to harden the leather which sometimes results to cracks

Hindi na marerestore pag cracked. Ipa-leather wrap mo na lang. Cost around P1800. Or gamit ng natural silicone steering wheel cover. Cost is P800. Washable pa.

Ako naman madalas magpa car wash along gil fernando sa tabi lang ng shell, TSR carwash, same din kailangan pa minsan ituro sa naglilinis na may natitira pang dumi kaya hesitant din ako magpa wax sa kanila. Gusto ko lang duon kase meron silang after 5 times 50% discount, pag pang 10th mo na 100% free na. 150 pesos pa naman pa car wash ng g.starex kaya dapat pulido pa din at walang natitirang dumi kung idadahilan ng naglilinis eh masyado malaki kase malaki din bayad
