Lahat ng makita kong dugtungan ng electrical cable nilagyan ko ng foil. Tapos spray with hose water bago degreaser.

Yes. Agitate the degreaser and clean with soft bristle brush. Tapo banlaw ng tubig.

You can cover the sensors sa Swift mo. May napanood nga ako sa YouTube walang tinakpan na kahit ano sa kotse nya. Hehehe.

I don't know how you guys do it in this heat, wash pa lang nakaka pagod na. After a couple of months being away, was looking to try a few purchases I got abroad pero hindi talaga kaya.

Anyway, I brought my car again sa Detail Studio to have an enhancement/ tar + clay + light polishing + sealant + 845 and again very happy, for 1,200. Ayaw nila ipa correction yung car because kaya pa daw ng light polishing plus sayang ang clearcoat. After that they recommended to just maintain it with a wax topper or their Full Wax after 2-3 mo if I want good paint cleaning done, so I scheduled that one in advance. I thought to myself you can't find service like that anymore. Their wax/ sealant collection is huge, you can request anything and they have it. Problem lang is ang hirap pumili because they describe it to you one by one, gusto mo pa apply lahat :D very reasonable too for what you get.

Was introduced to their trainer, who was doing a very technical demo at the time I was there, and was very helpful. Not sure if siya owner, but she was very knowledgable and scientific, and was polishing a beat up panel and finished it impeccably. Heard she is one of the more popular paint consultants in the US, impressive. Highly recommended.

mga sir,

tanong ko lang, makintab pa naman yung pintura ng sasakyan ko, pero hindi na siya makinis.

ano pwede kong gawin?

nanoglos at nanosliq lang gamit ko.

linis: araw araw, tubig at punas lang

nanoglos: once every 2weeks

nanosliq: once a week

bagong pintura lang siya nung march 2014.

a good rub, polish then wax.

*innova2013: Makintab pa pero hindi na makinis in what sense -- swirls, scratches? If yes, then it will fall under Moderate Imperfections. Follow the chart below.

[innova2013]

kulang pala yung description ko.

wala halos swirls o mga gasgas.

para siyang natalsikan ng spray paint na clear/top coat.

makakapa mismo kapag hinimas yung panel pero kung titignan mabuti, walang gasgas o bahid ng imperfection. medyo madami sa roof, hood, at gilid ng pickup bed.

claying at wax o magpa detail na talaga ako (paint protection)?

more than 1yr na din naman simula nung bagong pintura.

dagdag ko pa, buong araw nabibilad sa araw/ulan yung sasakyan, sa weekend lang nakakaranas ng bubong. mukhang matibay naman yung nanoglos kasi kahit once every 3weeks ako mag wax at once a week na nanosliq, grabi pa din siya mag bead.

[OMNS19]

Might be overspray, try claying it and see if it improves.

griots garage is a good brand of car care products. well known sa detailing circle ang brand lalo yung mga combo nila ng orbital polishers, pads at polishing kits nila. check autogeek.com for more info. any wash mitt naman as long as the microfiber types ay ok yan. if you can get the waffle weave drying towel much better, it will lessen your time in drying your car after washing. saan ka ba lugar sir? kapag may mga good deals diyan maguwi ka sa pinas at bilhin namin?
