QUOTE(d@id @ Oct 9 2004, 10:00 PM) the clay is efficient. but you need to do it very properly . clay is something like deep crystal paint cleaner but more efficient and harder to use. its something like a preparation job , after the clay you will need to do your polishing. icic, but i get the other way round info at meguiars website, it said when a stain that Quik Detailer cant clean then have to use Paint Cleaner liow... here is it, http://www.meguiars.com/faq/_index.cfm?faq...section=_48#_48 alamak now i a bit blur blur liow... dunno which 1 to get for, scare later buy liow Quik Detailer then didnt works much for me then have to buy Paint Cleaner... |

QUOTE(d@id @ Oct 10 2004, 03:44 PM) quik detailer is not to clean ler. hihi, maybe u didnt get what i mean...u got to use clay then use quik detailer to lubricate the clay ... its a preparation job. after using this u got to use diamond cut then dual action then speed glaze then only wax for optimum results. i did not mention the quik detailer only, i mention about the Quik Detailer package with the clay bar... the RM60 package 1... so the Quik Detailer + the clay bar can clean the paint surface? or i should go for paint cleaner if i wanna clean the paint surface... paise paise, new to MG stuff, too many product, blur blur liow... lolz... |

QUOTE(d@id @ Oct 10 2004, 11:55 PM) don't get the nxt wax. get the polymer sealant. as for your stains , cleaning it with quik detailer+clay and polishing it with something like speedglaze would help , finally , carefully apply a layer of polymer sealant the NXT wax not good ar? alamak, dunno my sister bought liow or not... the polymer sealant u mention is No.20 is it? quite expensine also... wow, speed glaze also expensive...

QUOTE(popiah_mmu @ Oct 29 2004, 02:53 PM) hi guys, have been browsing through this forum for the past few weeks browsing through the HP information. din realise that you all have a detailing forum here. cool~~. hihi popiah, u also register lowyat.net liow ar? welcome welcome...NXT wax is a polymer sealant. and d@id, diamond cut is a very aggresive compound. you wouldn't want to use it even twice a year. you would want to use it the first time for a really bad finish, then use something milder like DACP for minor touch ups the following time. Did you know that you can layer NXT wax with No 26? You should try it. Gives better depth. Would love to try GC wax on top of NXT but that will have to wait until I finish my 26. I find that just NXT on my car is sufficient to provide protection for some time. In fact I have 2 layers of NXT and it has been 2 months since. Seems to still be there. However, that could be due to the fact that I use final inspection after every car wash (which is done about once every two weeks). Hi Nicky, got your clay bar liao? How about the rest of the items? hihi, got my quik clay detailing system liow, the claybar wrap with meguairs plastic paper, is this the new batch 1? maybe sunday baru detailing my car, these days busy like hell maybe i just wash, clay and wax, cause my amway polish is not advice to use it to new car paint... they suggest use after 2 months... |
