What do you guys do after waxing your car. put it under the sun for sunbathe? or ..?
yesterday morning i did a wash with meg. wash & wax, clayed the front end of my car, meg. polish and ULW the front only. finish the whole front end at noon.
in the afternoon, went to work, it started to rain. this morning when i look at the waxed area, it doesnt feel as smooth anymore. did the rain just washed off the wax?

went to a detailing dealer few weeks back and i ask for a paint correction work on my 3yr old jazz. he told me they will only able to do a 20% correction and their reason is doing a 100% swirl free correction will burn the clear coat of the vehicle and was told it is not recommended to do so.
my question is, is it true that correcting the paint will burn our clear coat or paint? i was actually quite surprise only 20% correction can be done.

QUOTE(douglas_tong @ May 3 2018, 05:47 PM) It depends on how much clear cost you have left or rather how bad the swirls is on your car. Did he use any tools to inspect on the paint thickness? Where are you based at? Come Lim peh help you check if you are near subang/pj. nope. didnt even look at the car. Just quoted me a price and inform they are not able to make it swirl free. just wanna ask, is the Honda taffeta white clear coated? or its a single stage paint? i'm from sarawak, cant come out lim teh. was thinking of correcting it myself. gonna get the Osren DA first and slowly learn on the techniques

does car windscreen scratches easily? anything that we can do to minimize it?
recently bought bosch aerotwin wipers for my jazz and did a quick rainx treatment on the windscreen. during raining, both wipers keeps jumping, so i decided to clean it with soft99 glass stain cleaner to clean off all the rainx that i applied and leaves the windscreen naked without any protection.
after few months, i found that my windscreen is full of scratches from the wipers. what did i do wrong? help. TQ.

QUOTE(V429 @ Feb 15 2020, 10:37 AM) For me, yes. Some would say use all purpose cleaner for car is more suitable. QUOTE(teikchuan @ Feb 15 2020, 01:55 PM) It can , but the cleaning ability is weak , you need to wash twice or more , it may only diminish a wax but it cant really remove COMPLETELY Becareful dont let it dry on surface or any rubber/trim , it may stain. thanks guys. Let say if i dont wanna use dish soap, is it recommended to put another layer of wax on top of the existing wax? my car went for 2 stage polishing last year around August.
