waxing new paint

[raquino]

when is the best time to wax anewly painted car? some say it is not advisable to wax while others say it's okay to wax. what do you guys recommend?

[Picard]

ako wax ko agad e. just dont use CLEANER wax. gamit ka ng carnauba wax to protect the shine. ang hindi mo kailangan sa bagong paint ay polish.

[Supierreman]

let the paint cure first for around 2 months. di pwede i wax kaagad yan. magkakabubbles yung paint if you seal it off with wax hindi pa gaano tuyo yung paint

[flakez]

naku wag ka munang mag wax after magpapaint. tulad nung sabi ni supierreman hindi pa cu-cure ung paint, baka lumabo ung paint mo. mga after 2 months ka na mag wax. glaze na lang muna.

[Picard]

naku sori peepz NEW PAINT pala kala ko naman new car..... my bad!

oo tama sila di pwedeng iwax ang bagong pinturang sasakyan.

[NazQ]

yup.
new paint = a couple of months
new car = wax all you want!

haahhh, sino ba nagsabi sayo non??? LOL... Nyways, Single stage paint or 2-stage??? You're good to touch the clear on 2-stage after 30 days (according to the shop my sister had her Highlander done), I'm not sure about SS's...

Ano nga pala ibig sabihin ng "Single" or "Double" stage paint? Same ba ito sa "single/double" finish?

[chain]

single stage: walang top coat / clear coat.

Deha: Not exactly, there are pre-mixed clear in most modern single stage paints. It's more of a process (base then clear pag 2stage; premix clear + base in one spray pag single stage OR base coat only - circa 70s to 80s painting)
