QUOTE(shaniandras2787 @ Feb 6 2014, 03:28 PM) Haha, the number one thing that i fear is the cloudy patches after wax application because my car is black in color so a small dot of such defect is enough to kill the entire appearance of the car and not to mention my self satisfaction. Wash car, followed by wax is actually okay. The additional steps such as claying, polishing, and even IPA wipe, are just to provide the best surface to achieve the optimum bonding of wax on the paint surface. These steps are basically surface preparation.I wash my car once every week at night with Magic 101's "Wash & Wax" but because of my regular car wash, the wax will wear off faster than i was told. I just did my 4 layer polish and wax about 2 weeks ago and washed my car only once so now my car still feels "smooth". I reckon the wax is still around but i do not know how long will it last so before it goes away so i am hoping that before it goes away, i apply the wax. I've seen so much videos online using clay bars and some to the extreme using a rotary machine to polish off the contaminants before they apply the wax but i have absolutely zero knowledge on these advance techniques and if i were to try it, i know it will cause more harm than good which is why i asking around to see if just washing the car thoroughly would be sufficient to prep the car for waxing T____T Without proper surface preparation, you still can wax your car after car wash. Wax will still be there, no worries. The only thing is about the durability of the wax on the paint surface. That's it |

These steps are basically surface preparation. I intend to wax my car once every 2 weeks so i am not particularly concern with the durability but the uncertainties of "trapping" contaminants under the layer of the wax bothers me slightly but since my car just had a 4 layer polish and wax, most of the contaminants are most probably removed and the still existing wax should prevent any contaminants to sit on my paint so my idea is before the existing wax goes away, i just keep on waxing so that the chances of my paint being exposed is minimized.Without proper surface preparation, you still can wax your car after car wash.

I believe the stain can be removed with something like a steam cleaner from Karcher. If you know someone who has it, you can borrow since they are pretty expensive if you're just going to remove stain from our car seat. |

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « Well...just to comfort you....washing a car without a wax on every week is better than having a wax on but washing the car once a month. You don't really have/need to wax the car every 2 weeks. A good quality wax should be able to provide good protection for months (or at least one month). Concentrate on MAINTENANCE - wash and topping up with some spray topper/booster. I've been doing it for ages and the only portion of my car(s) paint that are damaged are only those caused by inconsiderate *so-called* human beings or accidents.... ps. when I was using waxes/sealants, I only do a 'proper' detail - i.e. light polishing and re-waxing, maybe once in three or four months....

If that is the case then i think i'll most probably wax my car when water beading is getting less. It should be a proper indication. Worst than animal living organisms with quarter of a brain cells of a ring worm, you mean. Yeah, hate those idiots. I have several irreparable deep scratches on the side of my door and front fender which is caused by neighboring cars. I assumed that they opened the door so wide and so fast without even giving any thoughts that they might damage the car parked next to them. |

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « Spray topper, example of them are like Meguiars Ultimate Quick Wax, Optimum Car Wax, Mothers FX Spray Wax, TurtleWax Wax-It-Wet, 3M Quick Spray Wax, Duraglos Aquawax, Autoglym Aqua Wax, Sonax Brilliant Shine Detailer...just to name a few (that I've used and tried). The ones I mentioned are all from the more established and reliable brands and available in Malaysia. Google them and learn what they are and what they do. Personally, for a black car, I would recommend Sonax Brilliant Shine Detailer if you're looking for durability or Meguiars Ultimate Quick Wax if you're looking for the look. If for ease of application with minimum risk of cloudy patches it's the DG Aquawax. Pair the spray waxes with a good regime and regular washing, you might not need to wax your car for months. Try one of them and...errr...*ehem* the Sonax Brilliant Shine Detailer is on sale at Sonax HQ, provided that it hasn't being 'scooped' by the kakis here already...check out their fb page.... |

I got a very bad water mark on my car's rear. Been there for about 8 years. I tried vinegar no effect at all. Need some advise how to remove them.
