theveed: talaga? hehehe daan nga ako bukas :D paki bilin nalang kay BM :D may available ba kayong mga cleaner wax?

i have read a few pages sa umpisa ng thread, medyo nalilito ako. i need your advice.

i have a new black getz, my current procedure is:
1)wash w/ car shampoo (polyglaze wash and shine yata yun)
2)dry with mf (pink)
3)buff a little with mf (purple)
only

i have yet to buy and use a car wax for this car. can't go into the multi-step approach yet, ano suggestion nyong product for a quick shine output, maybe
a liquid wax for easier buffing? particular brand please, average cost. its my daily
drive, so bare necessity detailing lang po, besides, its been raining. another thing
pala, glass cleaner recommendation po.

maraming salamat!

Loki:

1. Bigberts Citrus Car Shampoo (1 Gallon for only 400 bucks)
2. MF will do, but if you can get your hands on a Waffle Weave, get it.
3. Not necessary

For Waxes:
You can't go wrong with the Mothers line of Waxes, shop around True Value or Hans Tools they carry that brand. After you gain some experience, try other brands mentioned in this thread

ILD: kunin mo na sayang yan.. hehehe para masubukan mo yung combo with nanowax. BTW, Shine_Seeker ako dun.

Loki: just continue reading.. you'll learn a lot.

Dehadista: Langya, kaw pala yun :D, shine seaker nga :D. Tinext ko na nga si sneaky di pa sumasagot, text ko uli bukas. Mukhang magandang combo nga yan sa EO nanowax

medyo nalilito lang ako. ano ba ang dapat mauna, hand glaze o liquid wax (both 3M)?

**ILuvDetailing** · August 20th, 2005 10:41 AM

ian_rex: Glaze muna bago wax.

thanks ild. tama pala yung ginawa ko last summer. i'm due again to repeat it for both vehicles. madugo kasi sa umaga palang ubos ang oras ko sa glaze. sa hapon yung wax.
