QUOTE(Waliuuu @ May 4 2021, 10:57 AM) Thanks for your advice. Perhaps I can try airing the car under hot sun for a day.. And no, I don't use sunshades, also tried blasting de-fog but nothing changed. Here's a pic of it before and after i clean with waterless.I checked with my wife's car (no tint), no issue on this.. Not sure why uploading photos always gets rotated..

QUOTE(IzaakC @ May 4 2021, 10:21 PM) Hi all~ I got a stone chip on my car last week. Cheapest method is touchup paint, can buy at aeon/tesco or shopee/lazada. Make sure u get the correct paint code..It was quite deep and I could see the bare metal layer already... Is there any DIY methods available? or perhaps would be great if someone can roughly estimate the cost of repairing.

QUOTE(IzaakC @ May 4 2021, 10:26 PM) Thanks for the swift reply.. Do I need to do any treatment to prevent it from rusting before I putting the touchup paint on it? Since it just happened, dont think got rust yet..Normal car wash should be okay.. Unless u wanna go to the extend of claybar + polish? But i guess u can do that later, after u touch up, to even the touchup area Do use a toothpick to touch up, as the brush is quite thick, u will oversmudge the paint and it will look ugly.. just dot alittle on the chip will do..

QUOTE(focusrite @ May 5 2021, 04:33 PM) Just bought a car and want to learn how to clean it properly Depends on your budget.. since you just start, you might wana start small. Aeon/tesco or mr diy is okay but slightly pricier compared to online. I buy most of my stuff online via shopee. Today 5.5 sale, i think i spent alot..Do you guys just buy the car cleaning products from tesco/aeon/giant/mrdiy or shops to specialized in car care products? Are there any brands that I should avoid? Or are all of the generic brands found in supermarket fine? I searched on shopee for the brands recommended by American youtubers but they are all so expensive. Right now I'm looking for normal car wash soup, car polish, wax, compound, something to treat the interior plastics and car seal, and tyre shine. PM me and i'll guide u step by step. |

QUOTE(vl319 @ May 8 2021, 11:29 AM) Hi all. Just got my new myvi. Any recommendation products to protect the leather seat and plastic dasboars doors and etc? I use turtlewax leather cleaner & conditioner for leather seats. Can be found at tesco/aeon or shopee/lazada.And anyone use any interior glass cleaner? Is it safe for tinted? For dashboard and doors, can use meguiars protectant/new car protectant for that UV protection. For interior glass cleaner, i tried permaglass windows cleaner+antifog but it didn't work, i think because of the tint. The antifog left an oil film on my windows. Can try osren window cleaner or just use simple damp cloth and wipe just to remove any dust/smudges. |

QUOTE(Quazacolt @ May 10 2021, 12:08 PM) I had the privilege to be given a 99.9% pure lab grade IPA many years ago and I've been using slightly less than 1:10 dilution (between 1:8 to 1:10) 1:10 dilution means if my bottle is 1L, about 900ml water, 90ml ipa?Anything less it flashes way too fast and you'll get streaks/spots |

QUOTE(ctw88 @ May 11 2021, 11:54 AM) I've used this product before. But it will be problem if your car is parked outdoors. After heavy rain, and hot sun comes out, the dirt can easily etch into the fusso wax layer and it's damn hard to remove. Only way to remove is to completely remove the fusso coat with cleaner wax. Yup i have this now, i noticed black dirt marks that needs to be rubbed off during weekly wash. But other than that, the wax is still hydrophobic.. abit sayang to remove haha..I have no issue with cars parked indoor though. |

QUOTE(zswei @ May 13 2021, 05:37 PM) Can the experts here giving me some advice to newbie here..... I just collected my car 2 days ago. I'm stilling thinking whether do I need to spend 2-3k on ceramic coating..... and my car actually parked in covered carpark but when it comes to heavy rain the raindrops will still splash on my car. Do coating if u got the money. If not, like most of us here opt for DIY wash and wax. Remember, coating doesnt mean u dont need to wash ur car at all. |
