Will do sir, thanks.

*stockengine
Salamat po sa tip/info sir, will get one.

[unmarked]

Tama yung wd40. Safe sa paint kahit overnight mong iwan ng walang banlawan.

BTW tindi ng reflections nyang sayo sir, iba talaga result pag mas mahal gamit hehe

Wicked[emoji33]

tindi naman nyan boss SG, parang kendi!

Haha salamat sa inyo.

That was the time na wala akong ibang ginawa kundi pakintabin yang FD. All-stock eh. I only have HID, horns, original Modulo chin, so-so mods lang kaya sa linis at kintab nalang bawiin :naughty2:

This is a glaze, meaning will just help amp the shine, no protection at all. Its not meant for brand new cars, it is meant for newly painted cars, in which bawal ang wax (except optimum car wax) this glaze will allow the paint to breath until it cures completely and still make it shiny, hirap lang tanggalin.

Tnx for the insight sir.. ito na lng kinuha ko kanina sa blade. Inquire ko sana sa mga nakagamit na nito kng maganda ba result at gano katagal mglalast yong paste wax.sabi kc don sa blade e2 daw ang mabenta sa kanila. Ewan kng totoo.pwede ko daw isoli within 7 days if ever i change my mind. My dpat po ba akong palitan sa mga nabili ko?Salamat sa lahat ng mgcocoment.kakahiya man aminin but its been 4months d ko pa po napapaliguan c jazz ko kaya its about time na tlgang ipamper ko xa.im a newbie sa ganitong mga bagay and thank you sa lahat ng infos na makukuha ko dito sa forum.

^ medyo redundant yung quick wax and paste wax as they are both step 3. But you can still keep them both, yung paste pang minsanan lang na gamit at yung quick wax pang maintenance.

If I may suggest, get a step 1 product. After 4 months na walang ligo, im sure may mga dumi na yang car mo na di makukuha ng car wash lang. Kung yung car na fresh out of the showroom even after na wash kaagad umiitim pa rin yung applicator na may step 1 sa dumi, yan pa kayang 4 months na di na wash.

[Flip]

Yung dumi pala na sinasabi ko cant be readily seen especially after mo mag wash. but its there and usually makikita mo lang yan pag kumapit na sa ginamit mong applicator ng step 1 product. kahit di nakikita, it affects the result of your detailing and a tamang OC can tell the difference. hehe

Sir kindly enlighten ne.ano po ba ang step 1? Medyo naguluhan ako. Akala ko yong shampoo ang step 1.

When we talk of step 1-3, usually di kasama diyan yung car wash. Have you read about the 3 step system from mothers yet? Anyways, sabihin na natin na step 0 yung pag car wash...

Step 0 - car wash and shampoo to clean heavy dirt. eg dust, mud, and the likes.

Step 1 - clean stubborn dirt na hindi kaya ng car wash and shapoo. eg waterspots, old wax, greasy dirts, paint overspray etc. Only brands/product im familiar with for step 1 are mothers pure polish, microtex nanofil, and claybars

Step 2 - enhance and correct paint defects. eg light scratches, swirls, marring etc. Basic brands/product i know for this step are mothers seal and glaze and microtex nanosil. Advanced products which you should not try as a beginner are cutting compounds.

Step 3 - protect paint. All waxes like the ones you bought are products for this step.

There are products which claim to do all 3 or 2 steps in 1. Alam ko most of us here still stick to the basic 3 separate steps

^ parehong step 3. For me, if i feel na higher performance yung isa over the other at mas ma enhance, yes papatong ko same time. Pero kung same lang din naman performance, di na, sobrang redundant at konti benefits.

I do keep liquid and spray waxes with similar performance pero di ko sabay ina apply. iniisip ko since mahirap i apply yung paste/liquid like nanoglos, pang minsanan lang na gamit at yung madalas or pang maintenance is yung spray

after step 1 pwede na sunod yung nanogloss then nanosliq.
or pwede din step 1, then nanosil, then nanogloss and last yung nanosliq

Yes pwede naman.
