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

[SRGuy]

Finally got to quick clean the car kanina

From this


To this


Dahil super pangit ng weather ngayon, I put a layer of seal n shine down.

P.S. Dont mind the wheels di ko talaga nilinis un. Hehe

sir ano gamit mo tools for car washing? - do you use pressure washer? air blower?

I follow the 3-bucket system - nakakapagod din at ubos oras

You mean for the first application? Yes. For the succeeding, no.

I see. May I know what do you use for decontamination and/or for stripping off old waxes/sealants?

I plan to wash then clay my car before applying tw sns, but I noticed meron swirl and water marks on some parts of my car. can tw sns remove those marks? or do I need to apply something before sns?

just want to share. I bought my tw sns at shopee, from original price of 990 naging 800 pesos na lang then I got a voucher na less 90 pesos and 50 pesos off sa delivery fee, total 740 pesos lang binayaran ko hehe.

do claying at least before applying SnS. no, SnS will not remove marks but it might hide it. you can wipe with IPA to remove oily residues before applying the SnS.

I use P&S Beadmaker on every after carwash. After a few hours in the garage I can already see some dust settling on top of the body and windshield (I also use Beadmaker on the windshield and sunroof). After a few minutes drive along C5 the rear windshield is already covered by some fine dusts!

Same here. Although the TW SnS attracts dust also not as much.

Yep. Pressure washer with upgraded hose, spray gun and foam cannon. Air blower minsan lang. Di abot ung plug eh. Usually gawa ko is buhos lang ng bucket of water. Tanggal na 80% of standing water. Then Beadmaker as drying aid.

May stripping shampoo or if you're going to polish after, then clay.

You need to at least do a mild polish to remove the swirl marks before applying your sealant/wax.

porter cable yung gamit ko. maybe you need to stretch your budget kung gusto mo mag invest sa polisher. other brands like shinemate, griots, flex, rupes are available locally. check mo website ng reflections car-care ni sir ginnova

welcome bro. hindi ako familiar sa B&D polishers eh. pwede naman siguro but for buffing ng wax o sealant and not for polishing where you intend to remove swirls and light scratches. btw, there are 2 types na mabibili, dual action at rotary, read mo na lang difference between the two. for enthusiasts/diy kind of us, sa dual action tayo.
