Detailing Thread [For Newbies][ARCHIVED]

[herbularyo]

I finally finish reading this thread from page 1 - 78, and was able to apply some of the detailing ideas on my trusty Revo.



However, I have a few questions not answered in the previous posts:
1. Since I have a brandnew 2 week old black car. I am planning to avail of paint protection. Since Bigberts is not available in our locality (Cebu) and Diamond Protection of Ziebarts is no good. Pwede ba ito DIY? Or I'll avail of the Toyota's paint protection?

2. I have Megs NXT & EO Carnauba, which of the 2 will I apply first?

TIA

1) DIY mo nalang, if you're planning to maintain your paint at least once or twice a month, then it's not necessary.
2) What kind of EO Carnauba? If cleaner wax din, then just choose one of the two.

Sir Theveed - thank you very much. Pardon my ignorance. What product do I use in place of the paint protection? or will a car wax at on a regular interval be enough to protect it considering my parking at home & at work are both covered.

Lastly, do you still have Klasse products on sale? TIA

Herb: Paint protection is just a term per se, anything you use on top of the paint that protects will do the same thing, act as a sacrificial layer for elements to attack onto. Wax, sealant etc will do the same thing but they differ in quality, application, price and longevity, which are decided on personal experience and biases.

In you case, just use NXT 2x a month or so will suffice.

Wow Sir Theveed bilis mong mag-reply. Thanks for answering my questions. One more questiion if possible: Since the color of my car is black, can I apply carnauba on top of the NXT to add depth. TIA

Nothing wrong with it... just try it and see if it does make a difference.
