It's not really as advertised lol
Result depends heavily on damaged surface area and your application skill

Bro ... U mean the color is not matched with the car paint or the finishing not nice although color matched?

finishing wont be nice. if your base coat metallic or require 2 application base coat, sure will mess up.

Ok, continue from last week.
During wash, realize a few spots of polisher not buff off and already cover by Collinite. Try to buff it off after dry but couldn't, I guess Collinite already harden and covered it. Then use Osren 2.0 to polish it off, it comes right off without problem. Spent an hour plus on this panel by panel. Reapply Collinite and DG.

This round I have some Osren 4.0 to polish off stubborn water marks on side windows. Work like a charm, is like rubbing sand against glass, just 2 pass most of the water spots are gone. Add a layer Rain X on top. That is done for today.



Bloody hell, 1 hour later it drizzled and noticed it leave some dark substance after dry. Too busy to do anything about it. I think I need some quick detainers for job like this. I heard people also use ONR to do that kind of quick clean, spray on and wipe clean. Any comment? I didn't see many mention about ONR here.

Great stuff and quick economy if you getting the gallon version. For your glass/paintwork...i would suggest instead of keep cleaning, polishing (cutting), reapply product...why not do a layer of coating and maintain easier from there on...

I presume you don't have much weekend free time to spend on the car ?

Guys,I just bought my myvi 1.3 SE and wanted to take good care of it. May I know what products for washing and detailing?

I just bought one meguiars microfiber cloth for RM5x it is so expensive. wanted to buy those washing and waxing product from meguiars but wanted to make sure is it worth it before I buy it so what is your opinion guys?

Do you mean the Supreme Shine Microfiber towels? If you paid RM5x for one you've paid too much. There are packs of 3 being sold for an average of RM60 or so. You will want at least 3 towels if you wish to work with the Megs compound, polish and wax, or just in case if one of towels becomes too dirty to be used.

Aaaw packs of 3? where to find it bro?

Anyway,any other products do recommend me to buy before I stepped another wrong move? :_

Cool ! count me in and i will bring my new toy

grats bro. so the 15 do come with white pads while 21 is green/yellow

Just got a 100ml bottle of HydrO2 since it's Black Friday. Seeming from how easy it is, can't wait to test it out.

Nope. The local distributor does not take in the bigfoot 15 and they have no intention too either. They only have 21 for sale I had no choice

And no, the white pad have to buy seperately. As you mentioned it does only come with green and yellow pads and 2 compounds one fine one medium and a microfiber cloth.

Question Sifus :
So what pads i need to buy other than the default Fine, Medium, Coarse Foam pads.

Is Cutting pad and polishing pad different? what materials are there?
Microfiber pad for glass polishing?

And what kind of compound or polishing liquid, finish liquid that i need? please include brand too thanks.

I haven't try coating yet, I saw Permanon and Opti seal is very popular. I got a friend using one of this but watermark also will form after some time and he went back to ask the detailer, the guy said costing doesn't guarantee keep away watermark and scratches, it is just another layer of protection and last longer that normal wax. End up he need to go back for regular maintenance wash and clean, about rm30+ per week. Well he didn't like to get dirty himself, for him it is a solution for a sparking ride. I need more YouTube and Google on this.

My car been 5 years, I do regular wash but there is a lot of defects on it already; stone chip, watermark, scratches, swirl mark, dent and ding. Normally I spend 30min to clean it once a week, only these few week I try detailing, I consider it is an exercise and something fun.

You can find in Ace Hardware. Or you can go to Automotive garage sale and there are sellers selling Meguiar's stuffs.

jyan are ur paint looks similar to this? =P

ya.. it 100% the same.. can i ask y these mark where there? what did i do wrong tat the mark came out? do u have solution for it? thanks for the reply..

If you are working by hand, I would probably suggest getting at least two of the Meguiar's foam pads or the microfiber applicator pads if you're going to work with both polish and wax, although I recommend more than two since there's a chance of dropping one of the pads while in use (which I have experienced a lot of times myself ), so if there's anything you can use another pad if one drops onto the ground. I used to use SwirlX by hand for polishing. It's pretty easy to use and quite nice smelling too. Otherwise you can consider Ultimate Polish since it's roughly around the same price as SwirlX.

From my experience, you can use wax to remove it, although a better solution is probably to clay and then polish, or clay and wax if you do not have polish.

But i tried using wax.. it doesnt come off 100% clean.. can i use polish then wax instead of clay then polish or wax and wax? why does the spot/mark appear the car?

lol i have that problem too XD but not too headache abt it. How i prevent this is, frequent wash(i using sonax shampoo), frequent as in more than twice per week. I cured it with permanon's hecta, then rinse thruly with water, lastly with finishing wax, e.g. meg's gold class liquid wax. with this said, i don clay or polish to solve these damn dirt.

my guess is that dirt build up over time, so another reason to wash frequently xD

am too lazy to clay xD with this extra step i would took me more than 2 hrs just to clay, damned the size of my pickup truck! lol. cleaner wax/sealant may do the job, never try it tho.
