this will be my 1st time to apply rubbing compound. Aside from washing, shampooing and drying the car, what else will I do? am aware na abrasive yun. Any tips?

December 21st, 2004 11:29 PM #21. do not do it under the sun, or apply it when the surface is hot (like sa hood pag mainit pa ang engine). at syempre ma-sunburn ka ehehehe!
2. use a clean, lint free cloth that is lightly damp with water.
3. work on a small area at a time or the compound will just dry out.
pag tapos na, syempre wash mo ulit (water na lang) then dry, then wax. as in #1, dapat hindi mainit pag nag-apply ka ng wax kasi pag mainit ang surface tapos nabasa within 24 hours magkakaron ng water marks.

December 22nd, 2004 12:12 PM #7Mmm... masyado atang abrasive yung rubbing compound, better try a less abrasive product or a visit to BigBerts will do wonders with your problem.

December 26th, 2004 07:51 PM #10nag apply na ako. At least nag lessen yung gas gas pero bad trip yung parang after effects nung rubbing compound. Tapos wax na ginamit ko yung bagong product ng Turtle Wax, yung Platinum Edition. Nawala na yung after effects nung RC. IMO, its better than the Hard Shell wax (yung green bottle). Bought it in Rustan's Supermart for 129 bucks. Yun nga lang its not easy to wipe it off but the shine is better than the Hard Shell version.
