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

[MrClay13]

sir, kung magpapa 3-step detail ka na in the near future, tiisin mo nalang rin yung mga watermarks... mababawasan pa ng swirlX yung clearcoat prior to that detail sir

ok sir tiisin ko nlang

thanks thanks

dba sir 2.5k s bigberts ung step 3?

[Starex_Gold]

kinis pa talaga!

inis talaga yung ganyan. yung mazda2 namin tinamaan ng engot na everest passenger pagbukas ng pinto. dimple+gasgas!

gaano pala katagal yung 915 pag may step2? may nagpost ng test sa PD, surprisingly na-outlast ng 915 yung 476! pero baka one-off lang hehe

More than 3 weeks na yung step 2 + 915 ko. May konting beading pa pero pinatungan ko na ulit ng bago

*cjv_justice: *can see a spray bottle of OCW*

*jmpet626: may 915, sapphire, at fleetwax pala kayo sir...

oo doc... nakakuha rin sa wakas. pero di ko pa nababawasan yan. I can't wait to use this. Medyo me konting kaganapan sa family e, we just welcomed a new baby boy ng utol ko...

up ko lang yung query ko... pwede bang after ng wash e KAIO then Collinite 915, maintained with OCW and OIDnGE?

[cjv_justice]

thanks umi001.

will try it tom. question ulit. ang hirap matanggal nung parang mga residue lines sa KSG. di na kinaya ng left and right arms ko. ok lang ba na yun na hindi na ibuff ng mabuti? pangit nga lang pag nailawan parang mga gasgas... kaso wala nang ibubuff pa ang mga braso at kamay ko. haha

If you're having difficulty buffing off KSG, you applied too much (diba doc ). I don't think it'll do any harm to leave it on, yung nga lang, as you said, di maganda tignan. What you can try is use a QD while buffing off - it should make removing the haze easier.

Hehe nice sir! Wait, you have both 885 and 476? Diba pareho lang sila? :confused:

The sequence should be ok. Not sure about the curing time for KAIO before applying 915... It's ok to immediately top off KAIO with KSG, but that might not be the case for a different wax/sealant.

I'm thinking 24 hours for KAIO curing time. But I'll wait for further advise.

oh.. dami ko pala nasayang.. hehe. thanks for the tip! will try it para mapadali ang buhay. hehe.

No, OptiSeal doesn't have cleaners - the possible issue is how well KSG and OptiSeal will play with each other. Tell us how it goes, and if you have any bonding issues.

have tried it. no bonding issues naman.. next is OCW. hehe

mga sir na naka attend na sa detailing session sa dojo

naitanong ko na din to dun sa pinoydetailing.com

may mga binebenta bang product dun po? si sir edwin ba yun? tama po ba? hehe
kung meron ano po mga product binebenta sa dojo and anytime ba pwede pumunta?

malapit lang pala samin yung dojo pag nag ka time putna sana ko dun and buy ng products hehe
thanks..

AFAIK, ang KAIO walang curing required, since wax naman siya..

Ang SG ang may curing time minimum 8 hours, but an advise from a detailing forum abroad says a 24 hour curing time does wonders for KSG. Yung sakin I let it cure for 48 hours. Ang tindi ng kintab.

I need more plush microfiber cloths >_> bili nga ako later 10am sa mall.

I also find my NanoSLIQ being quite overused these days kasi walang ulan. Puro duster -> nanosliq nalang ako.

Actually, KAIO isn't a wax - it's a chemical cleaner with a bit of sealant. I've done some reading up on other forums, and the general consensus seems to be that there's no need to wait for KAIO to cure - the protection it offers by itself isn't that durable, so curing wouldn't really add much - go ahead and apply your LSP (be it KSG, 476, 915, etc.) immediately after.

I'm waiting for that confirmation sir... I've reading somewhere here that the AIO combines step 1 to 3, hence AIO. I'm planning to get kase the Klasse AIO or its Carlack equivalent, then after application apply 915, OCW maintained with OID-GE.

Pero di ba ang AIO every 6 months lang application?

AIO is a cleaner... preps the surface for KSG. AIO by itself has very little in terms of protection.

On the flip side, the durability of KSG without KAIO is nothing special. Combined with AIO, it outlasts many other sealants available in the market. Hence, they're best used with each other

In that note, AIO should be used everytime you apply KSG.

BTW, no curing time between AIO and KSG.

here's a detail I did for my cousin's Lancer GSR coupe.

before...


after...


that's just nanoglos. hehe.

the hood... it had a rubbish clearcoat job last year, combined with heavy oxidation. sayang kung may polisher lang naayos sana..

theoretically, you can do this, sir. AIO is a cleaner, it'll prep the paint nicely for a layer of 915, but IMHO sayang yung AIO kung hindi KSG next step.
