Any idea how to maintain car paint for cars without carpark?

ngayon ko lang nakita to ah...

ONLY USE A COVER AFTER WASHING THE CAR... any dust or dirt that sits in between your cover and the paint will rub back and forth like a large sandpaper...

I don't have a garage as well.. I wash around 3-4x a week, it's easier to keep a paint from swirling if you keep the car clean and not allow the dirt to accumulate... Once a week in our conditions is a bit too "late", it's pretty much certain that after a week of grime, it'll stick to the paint quite well...

Oh speaking of not having a garage... Look what happened to my car yesterday... grr...

may nabibili bang car cover na pwedeng i-secure ng padlock?

naisip ko lang kasi na kung yung side mirrors nga ninanakaw, baka pati yung car cover na P1,000-plus ang presyo pagka-interes ng mga tao na walang mabuting magawa.

merong car covers na pwede mong lagyan ng lubid sa ilalim. parang pre-holed na for you to secure it. hanggang rope lang siguro.. hindi pwede steel chain. :lol:

You can make it yourself... go to any hardware shops and get a nice grommet kit... then buy a rubber covered steel braid to run under the car.... tapos padlock.
