Hi to all detailing experts and gurus,
Would like seek advices. I'm very new sa car care specifically sa paint care. We just bought a brandnew black car and just realized how hard it is to maintain. Napansin ko may swirl/spider webs and hard water marks na siya and its 1 week plang. Ano po bang marerecommend nyong regimen to maintain our car paint looking like new and shinny? especially removing and preventing the swirls/spider webs and hard water marks for black car na safe sa clear coat. I already did a back read and I learned a lot but still confused and undecided what products to purchase. Isa palang mabibili ko which is for car wash, yung Mother's California Gold...

Thanks in advance fellow tsikoters

to prevent adding more swirls, practice proper washing technique. (purchase a good quality washmitt adn use the 2 bucket system with gritguards) for drying the car, do not use a rubber chamois, try using a good quality towel. check out microtex products

For protection, you may apply a sealant or a wax or both

good luck and enjoy!

Kakalipat lang namin ng bahay; first night namin sa new home. Hindi ko sure kung makakapunta ako; sorry for the late announcement. Pero try ko; kailangan ko na mag steps 1 to 5! hehe! Sige na nga, steps 1 to 3 lang :wink:

Congrats on the new house! Does it have a huge garage? Hahaha you thinking what im thinking? Next Detail EB?

Guys, salamat sa pag-accomodate nyo sa amin kanina. Sa susunod na seminar ulit. Yung secret formula ni master ( Med's 69 ba o Yakult ) ano ba laman nun?

Eto pala resulta.

Great job! i think you're the one my BF told me did a spectacular job using SwirlX by hand and finished it out like you used a PC. Great job! Not everyone gets great results with SwirlX via hand application and some even have a hard time finishing with it.

ONly the Master knows... and PSI apparently... it may even be all of the above..

For know, it's known as Master Ed's formula #69

aka MEd's #69!!!

Hahaha that a winner! hahahaha Med's 69.... that really made me laugh, i honestly don't know what he used but im texting him now im also curious as well hahaha

First comes prevetion before the cure

First as Watusi have mentioned, first learn how to wash the car properly without inducing new swirls and then after that a good option would be to fill the swirls and just wait for it to accumulate before you have it corrected.

Get the FF for washing the car

1. Microtex Washmitt and 1 Cheap Ace hardware washmitt for lower parts
2. California Gold Shampoo is good so is NXT Shampoo but if you want cheaper alternatives you can also get Microtex Shampoo i think its just 150
3. Microtex Chamois or Elite, don't use rubber chamois, other drying towels can also be used like Mothers and Meguiars Drying towel but i find that Microtex Absorbs more although its a lot more expensive.
4. 2 buckets

Optional items available OTC

1. Tire Black - Get the creme and water based ones like Microtex Tire Black or Red Carpet Tire Cream from BB
2. Wax - Moms Step 3, Megs NXT, Megs Gold Class, Microtex Nano Glos and TW Platinum is good.

kintab! gamitin ko na yung Med69 sa weekdend!

Hahaha i just learned what it is, give us some feed back regarding the results and try to post pictures, at first it would seem that it might flatten the Collinite's beading but wait for a few more days and it'll be back, its just that the sealant needs time to cure and breath more, also my BF told me to ask you a favor, Can you do one section 915 first and then followed by the Meds69 hahaha thats really funny, and then one panel Meds69 first then 915?

he wants to check which combination would last longer.

Hi, fellow detailing addicts! Just want to share results of Zaino. I put on 3 layers Z5, 3 layers Z2, then topped with Z8. Done in a span of two weeks.

Thats a damn good detail right there! Those are some really great results and shots on the hood, i love how sharp and clear they are and i love the depth, i guess thats why Zaino is on our Top 5 Sealants list, and i also give you credit for properly preparing the paint, Zaino would be useless on a poorly prepped paint, and thats one well prepped paint!

BTW did you use ZFX on those multi layers?

[madkatz]

grabe to a!
:jawdrop:
paano yan nagagawa? paturo naman mga paps!

The key to achieving that shine is proper paint preparation, meaning bringing the paint to its maximum potential prewax and sealant stage. and then it sort of goes over the top when you add sealants and waxes creating that look, paint preparation is 80% and LSP's are the last 20% in achieving the ultimate shine.
