QUOTE(cyktai @ Mar 2 2012, 08:35 PM) go to the jusco car detailing stuff and see if they have. it looks like plasticine. spray some shampoo on the black spots and rub the clay over and over, making sure its very lubricated. it will lift embedded dirt off the body work. polish will remove paintwork? you mean my car paint will come out?this is very different from waxing. claying removes embedded dirt by lifing it off from the paint. polish removes a layer of paintwork, making the newly exposed paintwork look fresh. waxing leaves a layer of oils on the paintwork for gloss and protection. |

QUOTE(cyktai @ Mar 3 2012, 07:43 AM) our paintwork is abt the thickness of a human hair. measured in microns. on top of the colour coat, there is another clear coat, which makes the paint glow and reflective. (think of it as nail varnish) As you can see, even if i wash my car, my car will stil remain dirty due to the small black dot (a lot) .. is it need to clear the black dot away 1st? But how?polishing compound contains abrasives (tink of it as liquid sandpaper). so when you polish it, a certain thickness of the clearcoat will be "sanded" off and gone forever. so the car will look bling bling because the dull layer has been "sanded" off. hence, it isn't recommended to polish very frequently as the clearcoat will become thinner. i went for some detailing workshops by swissvax and zaino last time. what i usually do is shampoo wash, followed by claying process. then wash again. completely dry the car, then do hand polish for the paint. buff off the polish. apply sealant. after curing, apply the wax.

QUOTE(izputra @ Mar 29 2012, 12:27 PM) Becoz of free labour for the first 3 service, it should be around RM8x.xx if u choose mineral oil or RM23X.xx if u opt for fully syn oil Thank's a lot. I wanna know, if no free labour and i choose Mineral oil, is it around RM170? Because i only ask them how much is the mineral and full syn oil, they said RM170+ and RM290.. So, i scare I get cheated. |
