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

Ano maganda pangtanggal sa ganito? Looks like sa talsik ng tire black nanggaling after ko magpa service sa casa. Ayaw matanggal sa WD40 as some recommended.

Looks like dried cement to me. May tar/cement remover nabibili sa Wilcon. I think it cost less than P200.

Thanks boss

Nagkaroon din yung Innova ko nyan dati.. talsik din ng tire black kse sobrang dami nilagay ng car wash boy nung nagpahugas ako.. natanggal naman sa gaas..

wala naman masama kung susubukan mo rin sir.. basain mo muna ng tubig yung affected area.. then using basang basahan lagyan mo ng gaas then punas mo dahan dahan dun sa affected area..

Haay sa wakas natapos ko rin 349 pages of pure info overload.

Now this is what i got and plan of attack for my 2 month old WHITE 2014 Jazz

Sa gaya kog tamad, will purchase the KLASSE Twins. Now i read but missed that info na mas ok iwan yung KSG for 4-8 hrs then wipe off... My question is, di ba pag iniwan mo to, magkaka alikabok na and magiging prone na sya sa scratch once i wipe off and buff the paste? Please enlighten me.

Also sa Microtex Elite, punas ba sya hindi yung dampi dampi? Parang i find the texture of the Elite is matigas. Di tulad ng mga MF eh may mga strand/fibers na buhok.

My last question is may Klasse Twins pa ba si Ginnova and tama ba 800 lang sa kanya (pero yung mas maliit di ba)? I found a shop in Caloocan in 8th Ave pero parang natatamad ako puntahan

Thanks sa mga sasagot and more power to you all.

Mga sir ano po ba ibig sabihin pag sinabing double action polisher? Yun po bang nasa ace na black and decker double action din po ba yun?

Mga sir ano po ba ibig sabihin pag sinabing double action polisher? Yun po bang nasa ace na black and decker double action din po ba yun?

most likely indicated naman sa mga polishing machines kung dual sya or hindi.

about polisher machines: Rotary Buffer vs DA Polisher vs Traditional Orbital Buffer

Mga sir ano po ba ibig sabihin pag sinabing double action polisher? Yun po bang nasa ace na black and decker double action din po ba yun?

Dual action polisher (also known as Random Orbital polisher) = spins and orbits at same time. Recommended for newbies. Safe for the paint. Will not burn through paint even if left in the same area for a long time.

Rotary buffer = spins only. For professional use. Very good for paint correction jobs. Can burn through the paint if left in the same area in seconds!

Yung Black & Decker sa Ace ay DA polisher din BUT uses low power motor, has low single speed (orbits per minute), and uses bonnets (cannot use foam pads without modifying the backing plate). You can use them for applying and buffing wax BUT not for paint correction (compounding and polishing) due to low power.

To compare:

B&D KP600/KP900 = 60W motor, 1-speed, 4400 orbits/min
B&D KP1200 = 120W motor, 1-speed, 3200 orbits/min
Meguiar's MT300 Pro Power DA Polisher = 500W motor (High Torque), 6-speed, 3000-7500 orbits/min
Griots Garage 6" DA Polisher = 850W motor, 6-speed, 2500-6800 orbits/min

I will try to answer this as a noob so mga boss correct me if im wrong,
For the buffing of ksg,ung iba kasi sir based sa nabasa ko is cocoveran after application,ung isang nbasa ko lagyan pa daw beach towel before covering..
If maalikabok pa rin try to use jng car duster and buff off or with a help of a QD..

For the elite, as far as i know parang chamois din.,it can be a little damp (not soaked) for it to work better.

Hope this helps,pacorrect nlang mga boss kung may mali.,still noob pa rin aq eh..

[blackwing22]

And also as stated by doc dun sa first page nitong thread pag nagdry daw let the cloth's weight drag it across the surface..

Tama siya wag mo ibabad un elite iwipe mo or drag it across the surface as long dry un elite ahh. Btw nag linis ako today using this products . Twice ko muna nilinis or car wash un car using joy to strip off some wax before para pag nag step 1 until to the last medyo okay wala pa kasing clay kaya di maka pag clay. Nga pala un mga 50ml n microtex dame pa tira sa crv di lang isang gamitan haha. Btw un roof nia nag turtle wax ice na lang medyo sira kasi paint sa roof eh. Next time na un pic ng crv pag umaraw na gabi na kasi

I am now on my 2nd day regimen this long holiday. Day 1 is to wash the car completely then kerosene, then clay then kaio and ksg. Result of the paint afterwards was very smooth. On my 2nd day which is today, the plan was to coat the ksg for the second time. Since the car got too dusty, I decided to wash the car quickly then apply the second coat. I noticed that the smoothness was somehow lessened after the quick wash. The same is true after the second coat. This is comparing before and after the quick wash. Although the paint is still smooth, I am just puzzled why the smoothness lessened after being exposed to water provided I let it sit for around 17 hours to cure. I suspect that the kaio plus ksg washed off but I am not 100% sure. Should the cure time be longer than that before exposing it to the elements like water? Also I would like to know what is the best technique in-between coats to have a refreshed clean surface before the next layer. Hope anyone would be able to share his/her experience and insights.

Try claying before applying kaio and ksg. Also check your car wash shampoo, it might be too strong.
