Any idea how to remove these stain marks? I think it's from the tree saps. Washing it couldn't remove those stains.
*
Try clay, if can't then next to do it wet sanding as the stain has etch and 'eat' into the clear coat

Anyone tried this before? It works like spray wax. Just spray after washing car even when car is wet, and wipe it dry.

Seems good in repelling water.

tonnes of product out there can give you 'quick' detailing but next would be 'HOW LONG IT LAST vs the $$ u paid for...."

Do you guys give your car a wipedown everyday? If so, what do you use?

I've read about ppl using UQD everyday but I feel that it's a bit expensive sweat.gif

But can't help but feel a bit OCD with all that dust on my car tongue.gif
*
Get M135. Detailer series of UQD or get gallon of ONR > Dilute is as QD.

The ONR sounds like the most economical way tongue.gif
How do you go about wiping it? Just spray on and wipe? I notice that my mf cloth gets super dirty even though I washed my car like 2 days before. And I'm super paranoid about getting hairline scratches or swirl marks.

Another question is what do you do about the mud near the wheel arches?
*
Do touch is so frequent. WASH it say every 3 days instead DAILY wipe down UNLESS U HAVE ALOT MF.

Wheel arch use Wheel Brush la.

Everyone want their car CNY time kilat kilat ya biggrin.gif.....

I officially completed my 1st syringe of Opti-Coat last week...(maximum dose biggrin.gif) after a year having it....

Now let the car collect dust..just wash it off once every 2-3 days either with Sonax, OCW or DG....*(maybe should use MG or CG next round)..wanted it to cure more before apply a layer of wax biggrin.gif

I would prefer beading more than swirl free since daily use car / weekly wash car somewhat will DEFINITELY have swirl come back in time from wash and drying....not possible to keep 100% swirl free...

Hi all. Got a question here. Is it true that LC CCS Foam Pad retain the product longer underneath the pad compared to flat pad?
*
Lake Country Pads hold up to the heat and friction of polishing without transferring that stress to the paint.

Look too good to be true for me. From video alone we are unable to judge whether those are really scratches or just white color paint. If it is the later than any marker pen will sufficiently to wipe it out.
Whether it is a snake oil or true genius product I have no idea but hey, just RM20 I think worth to give it a try.
I think I saw such thing before in Ace Hardware. Not sure is same brand or not.

Try it on an inconspicuous area first like under skirt, under bumper, under wheel well.

Hi all,

Appreciate some advice here. Just got a really bad, deep and long scratch at the bottom right of my car, covering the passenger door til the back wheel fender. Is it possible for me to apply primer, apply base paint and clear coat before polishing with compound or the extent of the damage is too bad for a DIY? Don't wanna spend a bomb and waste time leaving the car at the workshop for days.
*
better send to shop to touch up and repaint that portion (if the shop willing/able) to repaint instead of 'half' a door etc....

DIY is always possible but the outcome won't be nice since certain portion already went to bare metal

Does anyone knows what are the differences being air purifier, ionizer, ozone generator, and dehumidifier?
What each one can do and cannot do?

I think ozone generator purpose is to kill bacteria. Good for car that is already grows germ I guess.

Hi guys, any idea how to remove this type of stain? I suspect it's caused by dried chemical on the surface.
*
i believe the surface is coating with matte paint, be very careful if you wanna polish it...coz might easily strip off the paintwork
