"Tamang OC lang" - a newbie's guide to car appearance maintenance

[red_one]

Thanks Sir Red! Ill try it next time!

FYI. Using my 6-peed DA polisher (1800 to 6500 OPM), I use speeds 5 and 6 for polishing and speeds 2 and 3 for waxing.

This only shows that you would really need to exert more effort when polishing by hand in order to remove the swirls.

Mga bossing question lang. Yung collinite 845 ba yung gingamit nila big berts sa paint protection program nila?

Nope. Acrylic based ang gamit nilang paint cleaner at sealant. So it should be similar, if not exactly the same, to Klasse All-In-One Polish (KAIO) and Klasse High Gloss Sealant Glaze (KSG).

Mga sir again, I have 1 month old car.

Pumunta ako sa blade to buy a wax pero lahat ng sales dun recommended me na wag ko daw muna i wax since bago ba, usually daw after 3-6 months pa? New car owner here mga sir at medyo nalilito na ako. To think na may benta na sana sila pero ni-recommend nila nag wag muna ako bumili? I don't know how knowlegeable they are.

those salesman at kung sino man ang nag-seminar sa kanila would be fired kung ako may ari ng Blade
you can protect/wax your car right away straight out from the casa sir....fully cured na kasi ang mga paint finish nila. visit ka na lang sa site ng Big Bert's then browse sa FAQ nila about detailing. the sooner you protect your car's paint the longer you will preserve it.

Blade alabang town center ito by the way.

Tinanong ko kung bakit,

Salesmen: "Makintab" pa naman sir kasi bago pa, baliwala lang kung lalagyan ko ng wax and car wash would be enough.
Me: "di ba ang wax eh to protect the paint din hindi lang to make it shiny?"
Salesmen: Looks clueless, sir car wash ka lang muna, then after 3-6 months pwede na yan i wax

Just want to confirm it here bago ako bumalik at bumili.

Sir actually nabasa ko lang yun dito..

Nosebleed nga ako sa mga terms na ginagamit nyo at mga brands

By the way pwede bang car wash + wax na lang muna?

yung in between car wash and wax na detailing eh medyo magastos na maybe next time na lang.

what do you think?

subjective bossing... depende sa objective/goal mo sa car paint mo.

like what those common questions asked;
may road tar/stains ba? kailangan mo muna syempre tanggalin yon bago ka mag-wax
do you have swirl marks/marring? do you want to "hide" it or "remove" it permanently? different wax/products different approach so to speak.
carnauba, synthetic.... paste or liquid.... matter of preferences na lang yan sir.

Sir ano ma recommend mo?

May mga konting light scratches sya (hindi mo makikita pag hindi mo tititigan or kung hindi maliwanag, super light scratches lang naman) maybe came from the car cover, dun sa pag process ng pag lalagay and pag aalis nagka meron ng scratches.

Shiny pa naman sya kasi 1 month old pa lang and di masyado magagamit.

Ang objective ko is, Of course, gusto ko sya maalis yung mga scratches or at least hide it and gusto ko ma retain yung pagka shiny ng sasakyan. (mine is color black sedan). Medyo lagi rin kasing nabibilad sa araw sa pinag pparkan ko.

So far what I know pa lang is, car wash ( in between? ) then wax?

near to perfect pa naman pala, kung ayaw mo pa kamo sir magpa-detail/paint protection sa labas atm...ok na car wash/shampoo then wax.
regimen ko atm; shampoo(turtle wax zip wax), Meg's Cleaner Wax it's my first wax as a gift, used it before as standalone...now i'm finishing it with Meg's GoldClass Carnauba na recent purchased ko lang + Microtex Sliq paminsan-minsan. Dust-off with California duster.
I'm not nor can't say it's the best, basta nasisiyahan naman ako sa outcome nya. 1 year old na ride ko since January.

black car pala sayo sir, gandang pakintabin nyan...demanding nga lang. buy ka na din ng Cali duster or Microtex duster, sulit sya imo.

Meron na ako nabili kanina na car shampoo, microtex yung brand.

Sir ano ulit yung brand ng wax? nosebleed ako turtle wax or meg's? yung specific sana para yun na yung bibilhin ko. Also, di ba may clay type and liquid yun? tama ba?

Also, ano yang GoldClass Carnauba? do I need it as well or optional lang yan base sa objective ko?
