me also using Ultimate compound and Ultra polish a week, now switched to Menzerna SHCC 300 and SF 3500.

any of you guys using dirt trap when using bucket to wash car? where can I buy this item from?

I see, actually is depend on what polisher speed and liquid you are using. Me only using medium cut pad with compound. And finishing with soft pad.

I started polishing car more then 20 years, from hands to sander. Just bought rotary polisher last weeks. Quite hard to control it at first, now a bit get to use it.

Maybe later will find 1 DA polisher.

Osren u mention is on Facebook? I tried to search and found "Osren Malaysia Sdn Bhd" but is a Places in facebook. How to direct message them?

dang
i dont know whether is myvi OEM paint is soft or what, i keep on "marring" it when buffing off polishes! very frustrated!

yesterday afternoon, i decided to learn about DA while giving my bonnet a polish by using Ultimate polish + LC white pad(polishing). After everything was done, i checked my work with my 1k lumen led light and it did not show any defect, very happy! luckily i did not trust myself much so drive out inspect again under sun, almost fainted!
sort of hologram kind of marring is very visble under some angle, very hard to catch and almost popped my eyes looking for them.
I brought in the car and did another round of polishing, same pad and liquid, with very light pressure, 4 passes. and this time wiped very very lightly. Inspect again, improved a lot but some place still visible.

not sure whether it is caused by my buffing or the polishing technique. Could any sifu shine some light on this?

You may cut with speed 5, but finishing I mostly go on speed 2
I'm on orsen's da polisher. And mostly finish off with polishing pads.

Also usually for polishing, I tend to go more passes, just to make sure the polisher is broke down properly and gives nice finishing. Depends on what sort of abrasion is used.

I also use ipa a lot. Cause it makes buffing off much easier hahaha. Magicboo have got some cheap ipa

18 from magicboo.
91% is cheaper I remember

turtle wax chrome polish cheap and effective

Chrome plated plastic is quite different from chrome plated metal from what I understand. While chrome on metal can be hard and durable, so u can use metal or chrome polish and can remove defects and get mirror shine back, chromed plastic is quite soft, and most forms of polish abrasives will end up making more scratches than it removes. At best u will only get hazy finish by polishing chromed plastic.

I have read somewhere that some recommend trying PlastX or even wax cleaner products, but use it carefully. The best would be take care of the chrome to avoid any oxidation or scratches.

waxing is more the enough bro

Kan osren got trim coating?

thank for reply!

exterior, rubber seals & side mirror or other exterior plastics part.

Osren Reblack & Meguiars ultimate protectant which one cheaper? i bought osren wash & wax at kepong before.

This is usually happen to new car but trust me AFTER sometime you will GET used to it..if you think after you wash or apply x amount layer product this that...the car CANNOT expose to dust, drizzling etc..best not to buy car at the first place or keep in a airtight showroom condition

The great thing about detailing is TRY ALL product that you are KEEN (to spent alot $ and effort) then CHALLENGE whatever weather condition , x number of wash etc technique and see how it react or last accordingly .....

What i wrote is from experience

I have a lot of watermark on my windscreen as the car is parked outdoor. How can I remove them? Any recommended product or method?
