Detailing Thread [For Newbies][continued 2]

[Para Ordenance]

Mahal talagang investment ang mga detailing tools... Pero worth it naman sa pagod at pera lalo na kapag nakikita mo na maganda ang results.

Wala pa ba kasama backing plates kapag bumili ka ng PC? If so, then saan kaya nakakabili nun? Pati yung mga pads?

[jmpet626]

Worth it din mag invest ng tools malaki din natitipid ko kasi ako nag lang nag dedetail ng oto namin kesa pagawa mo sa mga shops. May kasamang isang polishing pad yung PC na may built in backing plate na din. Yung backing plate at pads meron sa Mothers HQ sa may Santolan.

Malayo pala ang bilihan ng mga pads. Taga province kasi ako eh kaya medyo limited ang sources at minsan lang makapunta ng metro manila.

Add lang ako question.

Saan din nakakabili ng Optimum products?

....edit...

Guys, any suggestions for a good but cheap machine buffer? Pang wax application and buffing lang sana... Sobra na kasi akong napapagod thur hand waxing, baka pwede ako maglevel-up.

Okay ba yung Black and Decker KP600? Masyado kasi mahal yung Porter Cable.

If BnD KP600 cost P4K, I guess now is the best time to buy a PC 7424xp. It is now selling at $96.51 here in the US (around P4K excluding shipping to the Philippines).

you are better off using a cleaner wax with repeated light pressure movement rather than using that product, that product is not really intended to removed baked in watermarks

Yung spray detailer ng zymol na nasa blue bottle? Hindi siya pwedeng pang polish mas magiging successful ka pa sa zymol na cleaner wax.

Thanks guys. I'll be getting a cleaner wax to get the water spots.

By the way, I got a Microtex kit that came with my car when we bought it. One of the products is this...Is it abrasive to the paint?

Nope sir AFAIK it's not abrasive. Wax po siya.

That's one of the waxes with the best fillers. And maganda siyang i-partner sa NanoSLIQ. Insane shine!
