My mom wants to sell her 9 year-old car.
I wish to up the resell value by detailing the exterior. If I don't want to spend on a polisher, it is possible to polish the whole car by hand? Assume that I have the all the time and energy. I just want the car to look less old, not expect to restore the glossiness. This post has been edited by WiLeKiyO: Oct 9 2017, 12:37 AM |

QUOTE(vindroid @ Jun 25 2018, 10:40 AM) QUOTE(blurcase @ Jun 25 2018, 11:16 AM) Wow, flawless! Great work! Looks like Meguiars D300 also will be in my radar now, hehehe... Agreed, when products close to finish only start scouting for new stuff. Else if get hooked to new stuff before current ones finish, end up old stuff gets canned. Mmm, no picture posted. But I will share how I personally assess the existence of wax/sealant so that u can try: 1) Water hydrophobicity: on the day u first wax, spray a light mist of water and see how the water droplets "bubble" up. Maybe take a mental note or picture to be your reference. As time goes on, compare the "bubbling" of the droplets, as it will naturally be flatter over time. That is an indication that the wax is fading. 2) Panel touch: use your clean and dry finger to glide on a few of the car body panels. If it squeaks like like your clean plates, then there is high possibility that the protection has faded. Hope this helps. Great work! That was the same set of products I used when I first started into machine detailing! Very impressed with your results! Keep it up! ![]() |

QUOTE(blurcase @ Feb 25 2019, 10:26 PM) Mmm, do u sun your towels after wash? AFAIK, microfiber towels are not recommended to sun after machine wash, but instead air dry cool. The rationale is excessive heat will damage the microfibers. Asked several rim shops, price range between RM100-120 to polish the scratches.Also, do u use powder or liquid detergent when washing your towels? Powder detergent is not recommended because not all the powder will dissolve when used, thus some of it will lodge into your towel. Finally, if u mixed wash all your towels, perhaps lint has cross linked with your towel microfibers? U can try getting a lint roller and remove the lint from your towel and see if that helps. I recall some tyre and rim shops can repair these types of scuff marks. Try enquire with rim shops. |
