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

[sp00nman]

kaya naman, so far nag eenjoy pa ako sa bi-weekly car wash and weekly retouch ng wax sa hood only.
pero once a month yung buong auto step 1 & 2, then collinite 845

Ser ninja, parang nabanggit mo dito na for windhield Collinite 845 ang gamitin, so ito lang talaga wala ng steps 1/2, also san nakakabili nyan- Concirde/Vlade? Wala ako makita sa ACE at Landmark kanina. TIA

Try ko yan sir..salamat sa tip.. Ok ba talaga yung mga motorize polisher? Di makaka dagdag swirl in the long run? diy ako kahit car wash ako lang talaga every week..

Mga boss newbie lang..ang haba ng thread ilang araw ko ding binasa at nagmix-up na details ng detailing..

My regimen sana..

Weekly
-wash
-quick wax
-qd (ONR dilution for qd pero instead of distilled water ay <50%nanosliq +50%water)

Monthly
-wash
-nanogloss
-collie 915
-qd solution as above

Quarterly
-wash
-clay
-nanofil
-nanosil
-nanogloss
-collie 915
-qd solution as above

1.ok na po ba ito?
2. Overkill po ba kung monthly ang collinite 915?
3. Will nanogloss remove my collie wax pag inapply?
4. Any recommendation for bang for the buck na quickwax?is TW express shine ok and will not remove my collie?medyo mahal kasi meguiar pang weekly pa nman sana plan ko..

Salamat po!

I'll just answer this,
2. Overkill po ba kung monthly ang collinite 915?

For me, the 915 only lasts for 3-weeks. I had my Altis waxed last weekend using 915 and in comparison to my CRV(which was waxed 3 weeks ago), the difference in glaze and gloss is a lot. Nawala yung luster on my V. Both by the way are black cars so it is easy to compare. Mukhang mas matibay pa ang 476 but iba ang shine talaga ng 915. Matingkad na matingkad.

Would you recommend car wash with soap after 1 week of detailing? or ok lang muna wash lang with pressured water para maalis mga dirt while soap lang sa mga wheels and its area?

yes sir, if you would like a darker shade, i'll go with 476. But if you want the wet glazed look, the 915. The 476 also lasts much longer than the 915.

Salamat ulit sir!

[blackwing22]

Additional question po pla..can i use ung B&D na orbital polisher/buffer for application ng nanofil-nanogloss?regalo lang kasi ung orbital buffer..salamat po!

[blackwing22]

Ayos yan ser!
I am aiming for the lesser maintenance just in case maging busy in the future..mahirap din kasi magmaintain and this "addiction" to detailing might be a stress on the wallet!hehehe!

Sir I would recommend using car shampoo during your car wash, the shampoo is used to help breakdown dirt and grime from driving the car, lift the dirt and lubricate the surface para pag pinunasan with wash mitts.

[bloowolf]

Would any of you know what brand of car shampoo & wax they use in the casa? I noticed maganda kasi. My car is a metallic red & it comes out with a deep shine after.

IMO 476s imparts a bright finish, and a reflective one. For better depth and richness, they have 915

gamitan natin ng HT term bro,
476 LEDTV
915 PlasmaTV

[sirkosero]

bought mothers california gold. gano katagal ang curing time between the polish (step1) and glaze (2),and wax? hinahanap ko sa website nila di ko makita...

[venerzky]

No cure times. Just drying times.
