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

[yapoy86]

anong brand ng polisher pwede gamitin sir pag mag tatanggal ng "marring marks" na galing sa claying?
ang ginamit kong clay is ung kulay blue lang sa lazada. then puro marks na ung auto pagkatapos. baka mali ako ng pag clay.
ang nabasa ko pwede daw po tanggaling pag pinolish. ano po kaya pwede gamitin? hand polish lang din plano ko sir kasi wala akong machine.
thank you!

ako i use mother's rubbing compound.. hindi naman sya kasing tapang ng "rubbing compound" na nakasanayan ko.. sakto lang talaga sya pang polish.. to remove swirl marks, and rain marks.. just make sure na well primed yung applicator mo, then wipe it immediately..

may mga additional questions po sana ako sir.

1. pwede cya hand polish ?
2. nakakatanggal na cya ng "marring" marks?
3. wala na po ba akong gagamitin na chemical bukod dyan pag mag tatanggal ng marring marks? wash -> polish using mothers rubbing compond -> wax . tama po ba?

pde po ba pagsabayin ang TW Seal and Shine, plus Hybrid ceramic spray? prang daming maganda na reviews.
or pa ceramic coat ko nlng sa auto-detailer pra no problem for 1-2 years..

I think you can layer pero I don't see any benefit since same type sila pero different composition.


I bought the ceramic line of TW, can't wait to try. I got the polish and wax aio, wash and 'wax', and the ceramic spray.

I think based on the reviews, the wash and wax is the least desirable.

yup pwede hand polish.. pero syempre mangangawit ka.. make sure do it on a 2x2 square feet.. do not let the product to dry while polishing..

matatangal yan marring marks.. kasi dati nag clay din ako.. may naiwan pa na konti marring marks na remove naman nung na polish ko

then apply wax.. i suggest yung collinite madali mag apply

pwede naman pero i don't think you get more benefit pag pinag sabay mo.. ang ending mag waste ka lang ng product.. yung mga spray wax ay good lang sa maintenance.. use every after washing.. iba pa din yung may "paste" wax ka na nilalagay

Since youll be correcting and by hand. I suggest you try the least aggressive abrasive first.



Apex detail on YouTube has some good videos.

Thank you very much sir. noted po ito.
may maisusuggest po ba kayo sa akin na least aggresive abrasive na available locally?

mas okay po ba talaga na polish ang gamitin instead of compound? may pinagkaiba po ba un?

Agree ako kay stock, use the less agressive product as also advised by Mike Philipps.
I use Meguiars Ultimate Polish by hand, the n wax it by TW SnS.

Try on a 1x1 area. 2x2 is too big. Product description says gentle swirl remover...it has abrasives.

It has the least abrasives from Mike Philips line ups, and I'm very satisfied with it's result.

yes 1x1 lang kung hand.. pag machine kasi at medyo malaki yung pads pwede 2x2..

lahat naman ng "polishing" products at may abrasive.. kaya need mo talaga wax after

sa experience ko, satisfied na ako sa kintab kasi tanggal na yung swirl marks pati water marks.. isa pa dapat tamang diin lang din.. wag masyado kasi baka maging manipis lalo yung top coat.. again do not let the polish dry on the paint.. dapat ma remove mo din agad using microfiber cloth.. also yung applicator mo dapat frequent cleaning din.. mas ok kung may compressed air ka to remove yung dirt sa applicator.

ok na bang applicator ung mumurahin ? like ung mr clean na 2 pieces for 99 pesos?


and pwede din po ba malaman kung ano pinagkaiba ng compound sa polish?
di ko masyado magets ung mga nasa net.

[yapoy86]

rubbing compound and "polish" both contain abrasives... mas finer lang yung abrasive material sa polish and as you go down the level.. sa polishing kasi walang isang pahid ay ok na.. may level yan from rough to fine..

yung level ng pagka "abrasive" ay nagiiba kada brand.. like for example sa experience ko mas abrasive ang 3M rubbing compound compared sa mother's rubbing compound. i don't know with other brands.. pero yan na observe ko

may level ang pag polish.. kung severely damaged ang paint dapat rubbing compound > step 1 polish > step 2 polish then wax.. pero depende yan sa product line na gagamitin mo.. so decide ka muna kung san ka mag stick.. in my case, i use mother's product line kaya nakita ko kung saan ako satisfied..
