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

pano sir matanggal yung mantsa ng aspalto? kasi natanggal naman yung mismong solid na asphalt by soap and water, kaso yung pinagkapitan nya may mantsa na gray. hindi ko pa sinubukan yung kerosene treatment kasi baka hindi na applicable dahil tanggal na nga yung solid asphalt. thanks.

kerosene will remove most asphalt. yung mga traces/mantsa can be removed by cleaner wax. i did asphalt removal on a friends car yesterday and yung mga naiwan ng kerosene were easily removed by compound.

As above, kerosene to remove it - WD40 also works, though it's more expensive. Cleaner wax, pre-wax cleaner or AIO to remove any staining.

Sir ano po magandang brand? Preferably yung hindi masyadong mahal. hehe. Tsaka ano po yung AIO? Thanks.

[Ginnova]

AIO - All-in-one is commonly referred to Klasse All In One - a sealant that has chemical cleaners. a bit pricey though. try to buy some TurtleWax cleaner wax in sachet for less than P50 kung kaya nya tanggalin mga stains. Nanoglos has some cleaners as well also available in sachet.

You can also find Mother's and Meguiar's carnauba cleaner wax, or Meguiar's Color-X in malls, though not in sachets. Mother's Pre-Wax Cleaner or Meguiar's Deep Crystal Cleaner would work as well.

OT: btw, I had a chance to scrutinize the Yaris sa showroom ng Toyota kahapon. Maganda pala oto mo bro... I like the flat floor sa rear passenger seats among other things... I'm thinking of getting a black one next year, basta it works for me IMHO.

Bili na! Only issue I have with mine is the limited cargo room (just enough to fit two weeks worth of groceries), but if you're only using it as a daily driver/fun car, it definitely works - and it's less expensive than the rest of the 1.5/1.6 competition

No, it's not available there. Try Pinoy Car Care or Autobisyo.

hindi ba nakaka damage ng car paint ang kerosene and WD40? is it safe to use it?

If you don't leave it to dwell too long, don't let it dry, and wash immediately after, there should be no problem.

exactly bro. actually issue sakin yung center-mounted meter cluster pero ok narin sakin... I wonder kung me face-lift to next year.


BTT: I just finished doing an ONR wash on my FD... sobrang na-miss ko tong product. then sinipag pako nag-apply ako layer ng 915, medyo inabutan nako ng dilim kaya bukas ng umaga mag OGE ako to remove any more residue. All the while inaaresto na pala si GMA...

It just hit me ang laki pala ng difference ng big size sa small size (ex. 128oz vs 18oz) in terms of pricing. So, sino may 128oz na OCW dyan tapos pa-refill nalang
