Has anyone tried using this brand of car wash and wax? It is cheap for Php165 only 1 Gallon is it good? Saw it a fb.... Im currently using Microtex and planning to change it with this one.

as long as the lubricity is good then its fine. it might be foamy but if its not that slippery then it does not help in cleaning and preventing swirls in the paint surface.

Anyone here using a car cover?

Pansin ko pag malakas ulan nag momoist yung loob ng car cover namin tapos nag s-stick yung water dahil nadadaganan ng cover.

End result parang may marring sa paint na ibang shade ng silver (car is silver) and I can't remove it using normal wash or clay.

Any tips?

Mas malala kasi pag diko cinover yung kotse kasi mapupuno ng tree sap, bird and bat poop, pollen, etc.

instead of covering the car,
would you consider stretching a tarpaulin over the car, instead?
you can angle it so's it be self-draining.

I was actually considering this as this is the best one, but it's a street parking (legal, btw

) but I think it's a bit of a stretch to have a umbrella like cover for the suv.

I think there's some in SHP or LZD that looks like a slim umbrella.

Hay di na naman ako patulugin nito...kabago bago...haha

Ganyan kasi nangyari sa vios ko, dina ako natuto lol.

Naiipon kasi tubig sa car cover sa bumper area kaya nag ganito.

I'll send a pic of my car cover's stain after 2 days of rain.

My parking is above a mango tree that provides good shade...and a lot of sap, flowers, small stems, bird and bat poop.

Once the coconut tree at the other side is cleared of old coconuts, I'll transfer my parking there even without a cover. Already had an experience of a coconut falling on my vios' rear windshield.

Anyway, I might get this nalang.
