myvi zebra???


North Americatti (zee-bra) yoo jedhame wamamu, United Kingdomitti (zeb-rah) jedhame wamama!!!









where do i derive the title from
Zebra - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Zebras are African equids best known for their distinctive white and black stripes. Their stripes come in different patterns unique to each individual





A zebra is a mammal of the Equidae family. The name "zebra" is used for a few different species of the genus Equus. Zebras live in Africa but found in MALAYSIA

why
Acid rain is rain or any other form of precipitation that is unusually acidic, ..... Places like much of Southeast Asia (Indonesia, Malaysia and Thailand

Acid rain is rain or any other form of precipitation that is unusually acidic, i.e. elevated levels of hydrogen ions (low pH). It can have harmful effects on plants, aquatic animals, and infrastructure through the process of wet deposition. Acid rain is caused by emissions of compounds of ammonium, carbon, nitrogen, and sulfur which react with the water molecules in the atmosphere to produce acids. Governments have made efforts since the 1970s to reduce the production of sulfur dioxide into the Earth's atmosphere with positive results

Human health

Scientists have suggested direct links to human health.[31] Fine particles, a large fraction of which are formed from the same gases as acid rain (sulfur dioxide and nitrogen dioxide), have been shown to cause premature deaths and illnesses such as cancer and other diseases.[32] For more information on the health effects of aerosols see particulate health effects.


It is very Normal to see such a paint condition if the car is not wash for weeks...the amount of acid contaminates the paint

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

after ONR wash
clay begin & contminants picked up


my intervention plan

Quick wipe down with ONR rinseless wash & 2 micro fibers to dry

Optimun no rinse was as Lube with mild clay

Paint polishing
Rotary with Lake country white colour polishing foam for with Meguiars M 80 polish ....speed 600 to spread, 1400 with gradual movement & speed , finishing off at 900 with moderate movement

A car clay bar is an essential car detailing tool that targets the common enemy of every car finish: pollution that causes automotive paint contamination. It relentlessly pursues your car from the second it leaves the factory until your car meets its ultimate demise. It's in the air we breathe, it's on the roads we drive, and it attaches to your car's paint, where it bonds and begins a process of oxidation.
Paint Contamination Removed by Detail Clay Surface contamination, as shown by this diagram, is difficult to clean or polish off, yet paint cleaning clay removes it with ease.

When contaminants get a solid grip on your car's paint, washing alone may not be enough to remove them. Pre-wax cleaners also may not be able to exfoliate large particles. In this case, you have two choices: use a polishing compound, which removes a lot of paint material, or use a clay bar. A clay bar isn't a polish or a compound, it is a surface preparation bar that smoothes the paint and exfoliates contaminants.
