pre... ako wala din akong covered parking sa bahay, although naka basement parking ako dito sa office. yung mga ginagawa ko to maintain the quality of my car paint is simple:

a) pag nasa house ako, binabalutan ko lang ng car cover.
b) i clean my car regularly (once or twice a week) and
c) i wax it regularly too (mga twice to thrice a month)

sakin, weekly carwash then wax twice per month.

ok pa naman, di nga lang maiiwasan yung deep scratches and swirls kasi nga dami og*g :cry:

boyong,yan ang tanong na matagal ko na rin gusto e-tanong..hehehehehe! :mrgreen:
ang hirap talaga pag walang garahe sa bahay. kalilinis mo lang, bukas ng umaga marumi na naman dahil sa nahamugan at may alikabok pa.ang hirap talaga.:?

car cover then regular wash and wax. And buy meguiars quik detailer for touch ups between waxing. di mo talaga maiwasan hamog alikabok and bird droppings. this is what i do car wash ng monday am, pag di mashado nadumihan hme wash ako ng wednesday or thursday. then carwash sat am para sa gimiks and sundays.

yup, get a car cover! ako din, wlang garage yun apt namin. big help din yun cover lalo na sa bird droppings, mild rain, dew and esp sa mga tao na dumadaan lalo na if they're not aware they are carrying stuff that can scratch the paint or put a set of dimples. parang yung mga nagbebenta ng taho o di kaya yun mga naglalaro/bisekleta na bata. nakow!. ang kukulit! hehehehe. i also wash twice weekly and wax para atleast kahit papano me proteksyon yun paint mo from (acid) rain. pagkatapos ng wash at wax, cover agad hehehe.

Frequent washing and washing will help. Just like what others said try buying a water resistant car cover and use it. :D

Wax, Wax, Wax...
That will be the true measure of how
much you love your car.

bago ka bumili ng mga wax and anything unahin mo muna car cover kung wala ka pa.
peace.:D:D:D:D:D:D

is it ok to put the car cover say 5 minutes after you shut off your engine, or do you have to wait for the engine to really cool down first, para hindi mainit yung area sa may hood?
