QUOTE(Dannyl @ Aug 16 2007, 09:52 AM) Are you sure you're not an Ewok do u clay ur car? I mean i saw in some of the forum about claying its use a clay with ur palm and rub it against ur car rite? Is it polish and waxing sufficient for my car? Turtle Wax is a brand, they have all kinds of stuff. Well, whatever products you use, you have to learn the basics, like the 2-bucket method, how to clay, how to wax, how to buff, time to wash, etc. Just Google around for some detailing forums   |

yes, clay is a must after washing and before you polish/wax your car ...
purpose of clay is to have a clean surface for polish/wax ... if u straight wax without clay, the dirt will together mount inside the car paint ... my fren's car never clay before, that day he clay, the clay turn to black immediately ... so u can think how dirty the car paint is even washed with shampoo already ... |

QUOTE(kevinlim001 @ Aug 15 2007, 06:10 PM) dude i heard some positive response about turtle wax. Where can i get it i m living at small place in Johor. I still live at the top of the tree so kinda ulu(but i take lift to get in my house) =P .If KL sure no problem i heard many forumer recommend Eneos but the first time i heard them is from Initial D. carrefour should have it.. its quite common.. else singapore, which isnt too far from ur place but anyway which supermarket i can get turtle wax? Is turtle wax is a wax not polish? turtle wax shampoo ~17 ringgit for 1.9L u must remember.. megxxxxx stuff is dirt cheap like single dollar digits in US  |
