Another time Festive celebrations - means lot of preparations AKA lot of hard work - of sweat
Spring cleaning time – upon arrival of my buddy ride, he explained that he has been sending this 2 years ride to be detail every time when there is a festive season –( once yearly????)...but is it necessarily for the car paint to be polish & corrected every time - will our clear coat 2 mil of an micron last with stand against these harshness ???? wrong hands
I questions why there is the need of paint correction every year –
He reply “ I thought it is necessarily, just like spring cleaning !!!!!! I say “What”!!!!!
Great looking black stallion
far away look
eh...some stains from yesterday rain
But closer look
rainy season la
wow.. the stains mark - def at the speed he is driving
this is the most contaminated area - dirt grime & dust pick up
3 micro fiber wash
begins
Lesson begins - DIY please - things can be done within our means
clay
this is what we picked
contamination - such as Dirt, Grime, tars, acid rains, brake dust & Insect Deposits - on the paint above surface
Dirt, Grime & Insect Deposits
look at how ONR traps changes the water behaviour & tensions to hold up these dirt sands & dust beneath -
such contaminant will definitely hurt yr paint
++++++++++ Moving on to the wheels cleaning - the most important area to clean +++++++++
where contaminations create from here
ta da
before
ta da
just a quick wash aka wipe with ONR - most owners or detailer would like an instant gratifications - so harsh chemicals or acids use to create this transformations but after a prolong time - our wheels clear coat begin to chips & peels
what we need is just a quick effective wash to remove these dust
if u do have some tar stains - try claying them
as for me i usually use the balance ONR solution with a separate MF to wash these contaminated ares
tire cleanning
OPT neat use
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++stains cleanning
Petrol cap area
my favourite tools - soft bristle brushes (RM 8 - aka USD 2.50) & OPT Power clean - diluted in 1:5
_++++++++++++++++++ paint condition
what u do not see
remember this Great looking black stallion

I questions why there is the need of paint correction every year – He reply “ I thought it is necessarily !!!!!! I say “What”!!!!!
He has not been with his ride while the correction is being done for the past 2 times but this time different story , as I want him to knowe what is the damage & how to restore it
Empowering - lesson begins
a 50 / 50 % area set at the engine hood

dont just take this pic at surface value as it is JUST ANOTHER reflection shots
after 8 hours of sweat & hard work

for once
to this
from these
some reflections pics
deflect
so do i use an slr or semi pro camera
nope all of my pics uses a RM 300 camera - when a well correct & detail car - details is redefine again
of such
to
now it is ready
my buddy has not seen his paint in these condition in fact after detail twice
as most of these detailer - asked him to be excuse - where I invite him to witness the whole proses
what we did was
ONR wash - 3 micro fibers
clay with oNR as lube (2 ounces in 500 ML)
wheels Onr wash
tire - OPC & brushes
OPC dilutes 1 :5 water for external cleanning
Paint correction
Megs M 105 wit double sided LC wool X 2 passes - spread speed 1 & polish at speed 3 - 2nd pass with ONR as lube – to rework again
Megs M 105 with LC cutting pad X 2 passes with ONR sprayed as Qd lube - gently & slowly to correct this soft paint
M80 polishing with Megs W8027 polishing pads X 2 passes - spread speed 1 & polish at speed 3 - 2nd pass with ONR as lube – to rework again
finishing M 80 with LC finishing pads – blue X 2 passes - spread speed 1 & polish at speed 3 - 2nd pass with ONR as lube – to rework again
lastly protected by Opti seal (3-4 times yearly) a bottle will last 4 applications & 10 years
strengthen with - Optimum Car wax in 10 minutes\\\so simple tht we can do it regularly without effort
Megs
Before he left I gave him a bottle of ONr + 3 plushy microfibers
handling him back the baton to care for his own car
no more excuse - no more road side as well
EMPOWERING OTHERS -

look again - carefully
the truth is
