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

Leave it be. Charge to experience.

Pero kung makakahingi ka ng touch up paint sa casa, better.

I'm planning to leave it sana, kaso may cases daw na nagrurust pag matagal nakaexpose yung base paint.

I have the same problem. A couple more chipped paint on the body, hood, etc.. got it from falling bbs (airsoft bullets) before i think. I already ordered touch up paint from amazon. Ang problema na lang ngayon is how to apply it.

Kung umabot sa bare paint, yeah, it would rust. You can have a small can of paint mixed then apply it with a very fine paint brush. It would be a stop-gap procedure though. If you want back to original, then no choice but to sand it down then repaint panel.

What car is this? If Honda, I know Kansai paints in del monte avenue mixes honda paints. They deliver to honda casas kasi eh.

yes, medyo malalim siya, pag pinadaan ko finger ko lumulubog talaga.
suzuki po yung car. i'll ask nalang sa casa kung meron sila touch up paint or might order online nalang.

Vehicle rust proofing technology has improved over the years ... If it develops rusts, it's not going to eat into the metal for another 10 years ...

I tried putting 10ml of the soap then around 600ml of water. Its to thin pa rin. Will try 20ml next time. Haha or maybe the particular soap is not that foamy?

Next time i'll try this

Hehe nadadamihan lang ako sa 1 ounce of product to the foam cannon. Try ko muna ulit increments of 10ml. Ung tira sa foam cannon un na ung sa wash bucket ko.

[monty_GTV]

yeah, try mo lang until makuha mo tamang consistency. consider not only the foaming but yung lubricity, kahit hindi masyado thick ang frothing if the lubricity is good, pwede na. but its nice to look at nga lang if makapal yung bula[emoji38]

First rinse (just water only) after p&s bead maker application about a week ago. Looks good.

[zechs]

I think I may have finally figured out the dilution. Haha. 1.5oz then around 300ml water. See the foam cannon below. Ganun lang gamit ko. Thick enough foam to drag down the contaminants off the paint.

[monty_GTV]

^ lathery yata kapag ganyan na consistency. i prefer din yung ganyan at maganda lubricity, inaanod pababa yung dumi. if you have time, figure out mo din yung dilution na frothy o makapal yung bula. i saw some carwash shops na ganun yung bula pero minsan mabula lang, walang dulas at saka maduming basahan ang gamit kaya swirls lang inaabot ng pintura[emoji28]

I get the same foaming using 100mL soap and foam gun filled with water till 1000mL mark. Using Meguiar’s Ultimate Wash and Wax soap.

Magastos noh pag 100ml soap? Haha sa isang gallon parang ilang washes lang. Although ang pwede gawin kung 100ml soap then 1000ml water is ung natira sa foam cannon na soap, un na sa wash bucket para dual purpose.

Will try the chemical guys citrus wash and gloss next time.

Hindi naman, based on my usage 3 washes yung kaya nung 1L mix sa CRV. Masarap sa ilong yung amoy nung Meguiar’s, hehe. May separate mix pa ng wash bucket.

Yung wheel wells, rims/wheels nauuna na sabunin gamit ko yung Microtex ProChoice shampoo, dami pa laman yung 5 Gallon na binili ko last year.
