mga sirs, sensya na sa kakulitan ko. tumanda kasi kong hindi naglilinis ng kotse!

wala pa kasi akong car duster, kung super nipis lang ba yung dust, puedeng di na wash and instead gamitan na lang ng QD. raming salamat.

everytime ako hanap ng clay bar, lagi wala! malas eh noh.

anyway...

I've recently discovered the power of CROCODILE-Multi purpose cleaner/degreaser.
amazing! I use it to almost anything i could think of cleaning. Now, is it safe for leather seats? The only downside is, it tends to dry up my skin... and the leather. so i stopped using it...unless im doing it all wrong. Kung nde maganda to, could you guys recommend me a product for leather. I've tried Armor all leather/cleaner/conditioner and i didn't like it. Baho pa. so...help? thanks.

try mo yung sa Mother's.. ok yun.

right now, alternating ako dun with the one ng Megs

anyway, wala bang tayong pics ng mga work nyo guys? hehehe I want to see some shiny cars!

i suggest using specific leather conditioner/cleaner instead. cant go wrong with mothers or megs. im using megs leather cleaner/conditioner for so many years. aloe scent, easy sa skin, kamay ko pa pinang aaply ko

finally, naglinis ako ng konti sa engine bay, takot kasi ako magspray ng tubig direkta. any tips dun sa mga hindi rin nag iispray? gamit ko mf, simple green auto, paintbrush, extra rags.

Hey guys,
Saw this wash mitt(auto section) at a local super grocery in china(like macro in the phils). though I can't read the label, but most likely its for car wash. bili ako at subukan ko. what you think?

mga expert, eto rin sana gusto ko malaman, kasi i usually have my car washed once a week lang (no time and super tamad), and after a few days medyo nakikita na ang dust sa surface ng silver paint ng car ko. How do i apply QD.... basta na lang ba i-spray ang QD sa surface ng car then wipe with MF or kailangan spray muna ng water to lessen and soften the dust bago mag-spray ng QD?
....and last question... what kind of MF pwede gamitin? dami kasi klase eh.

Thanks

sorry if may similar post na about this.

karl88: better to invest in a California Car Duster. check pinasdetailing or teamrage.ph, AFAIK some members are selling it on those websites. It will set you back around 1400 more or less.

As for Microfibers, I would recommend the Microtex - yung Red (forgot what they call this) its available at Bigberts or True Value.

No need to rinse your car first, dust your car first using CCD and a QD session will do.
