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

i like the rows of wax * 4:30, i think i have 4 of those 😊

kapag dull yung paint surface at applayan mo ng wax, of course may added gloss. but if well prepped na yung paint surface, more on added protection na lang yung wax. there are wax na wowo types and meron din yung need some time to dry bago i buff.

i think the guy is developing his own wax. im sure sooner or later we'll see a forensic detailing wax in the uk market😀

magandang basahin yung history ng development ng wax about sa bilt hamber finis wax at saka yung dodo juice supernatural wax. that kickstarted my interest to collect waxes until such time hindi ko na rin nagagamit 😂

it all sum up to how you do the paint correction and prepped the surface. kapag na prepped ng maayos at naalis ang defects, glossy na kahit wala wax.

damn i havent heard of this bilt hamber finis wax... ano origin nyan? finland? what about dodo?

sounds like these europeans pioneered "detailing" aka "gloss" 😅

Anyone using microtex products? They have new line of detailing products MTx. Used their sunshield protectant.. smells like body lotion.

you can make your own. find a sort of screen/mesh made of plastic then attach it to a wooden stand. shape it in such a way na magkasya near the bottom ng timba. importante lang naman may barrier yung wash mitt saka dirt/grits na maipon sa bottom.

so i coated the lens of my welding helmet w/ Carlack long-life

after enduring lots of UV, smoke, spatter, etc. i wiped off the upper-right portion w/ my shirt. the surface still feels slick so the carlack is still there

Remembered a video I saw on Youtube from Dallas Auto Detailing.

He hates the two bucket method. Ayaw nya yung idea na magbubuhat sya ng 2 buckets with almost 5 gallon water on each bucket. Tapos bibili pa raw ng Grit guards, etc.

Anything I can apply to the paint before applying Collinite 845? Bought Mother's Speed Clay 2.0 to decontaminate the paint before wax application. I'm a beginner but I want to wash and wax my car personally until it becomes too tedious.

Car is just 3 weeks out of the Casa.
