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

[venerzky]

with your monthly mileage....the 2 coat sealant will last 12months. ayan mag bukas ka na ng detailing shop. hahhahaha

Mas tipid. Nyahaha.


Soon to open. [emoji12]

Actually may gumagawa talaga nyan. They let the wax cure for 24 hours tapos 2nd wax application.

At yan ang plan kong gawin. Hahaha.

gusto mo talaga pagpawisan boss venerzky ok din yang patong patong, ginagawa ko din yan but not with waxes, in my opinion parang overkill. kung gusto ko magkapatong na LSP, i'd rather have sealant first then cure for 4-8 hrs tapos saka ako mag-apply ng wax sa ibabaw. i do that mostly on my 2x a year full detailing regimen bago summer at bago rainy season.

Finally, after 15 months I got the urge to remove the car seat covers to launder them. Removing the back seat was a pain. The car seats were so filthy, accumulating more than a years worth of dust & grime including stain from my daughters vomit a year ago. I vacuumed it & used this upholstery cleaner of microtex. Now, it's good as new!

^ Hehe, nung dati ganyan din ako hirap as in tulo talaga nga ang pawis ko removing the back seat. ang teknik ko lang ay gamit ng 2 hands,isinisingit ang fingers sideways (magkabilang dulo ng seat papunta sa 2 hooks) then pagnakapa na ang hooks hinto tapos biglang hila pataas na kailangan may lakas ito. voila!!!

Mga detailing afficianado dito, newbie lang dito..

Ask ko lang if need ba mga claying bago ko gamiting Steps 1, 2 and 3 (mothers ultimate wax system) for a 1month old lang na kotse? Mothers kasi na bigay sa akin ng kuya ko kaya gamitin ko muna..

thanks!

Kuha ka ng thin cellophane strip. (Kung may kilala kang nagyoyosik, hingin mo na lang yung plastic wrapper nung yosi case.)

Now, clean and dry your car.

Then try to run the plastic strip on your car's surface. (As if you were using a blotting paper on skin.)
If you feel nothing -- all smooth -- then you don't need to clay.
If the paint feels "rough" then you need to clay.

IMO if you have the clay on hand na, go ahead and use it before your detailing regimen. 1 month na yung car, na expose na yan sa elements.

Okay ba magpa 3 step detailing kahit mag 4 months pa lang yung oto?

tanggal swirl marks ba sa 3 step detailing?

dami na kasi swirl

kaya parang ayoko na mag DIY wash and detail.

[venerzky]

Definitely okay. Mine is only 3 months [emoji4][emoji4][emoji4]

DIY.

Ganyan din sakin last year pero di gaano karami kaso nakakaburat pa din kasi ingat na ingat ako sa pag wash and wax eh. Kaso nung pinasok ko sa casa for repairs pag balik sakin parang scotch brite ang pinanglinis ng mga animal sa sobrang dami ng swirls!

Plan ko bumili ng polisher para ako na lang mag detail. Pag palpak saka ako magpa detail sa mga pros hehe.

Yan nga din, akala ng casa natutuwa tayo sa libreng washing eh de liha ata yung chamois na pang wash at pang tuyo nila

Kaya naka schedule na yung DIY 3-step ko just after PMS.
Nagsawa na ako sa pagbigay ng instruction sa CASA na huwag mag courtesy wash. There was a time na naka dikit pa sa windshield ko, "Please do not wash car."
Pero hinuhugasan pa rin at nilalagyan pa rin nung magrasang uri ng tire black.

[tahxcool]

Mga sir after 6 months may nakikita na ako swirls sa hood ng car ko after car wash..usually car wash lang ako 2 bucket method then chamois..after madry yung car 3m quick spray wax na.. Ano ba pwede ko isingit sa ginagawa ko pang remove ng swirl??

[benchman]

black/dark colored car ba sir?
