Car Care and Detailing Dreams (Part 2)

[bym007]

Before using dw-40 just remb that ur engine wil become a magnet for dust attraction. It does gv an amazing shine to the blacks though

That is very true about dust, the shine only lasts a day or two until the dust becomes visible [emoji35]

Thanks vickybhai, although i have shaken it well already but will try again more vigorously

As per meguiars, sealants and waxes are same. only difference is that waxes are from natural substances while sealants are synthetic. And there is difference in protection time. Else if someone has used sealant there is no need to use wax, although one can do wax if he wants but its not must.

What I think is its not a must. Synthetic sealant lacks depth, so for that u can always drop some carnauba on it and get that desired depth

Yes it will work .... I am using it on trims which went grey with time and service station surf .... But u need to apply 5-6 times regularly for better reults ... It will not cure in only 1 application .... Remember its back to black not back to black tire shine .... These are two different things as far as i know

Thats great

thanks for helping me out will try it soon

Bro take a look at this. This photo is shared from their website. Anything that removes fine swirls or scratches would have abrasives in it. If I were you, I would never use a wax from a company that doesn't have a good name. Go for turtle hardshell its not that difficult to remove if you follow the instructions clearly, I have been using it and only had problem in removal once, that too because I waxed it in direct sunlight. Follow the instructions and you'll get superior results from turtle also.

I'm totally agreed with you i'm also using turtle hard shell wax its the best you can get in 450 Rs and removing it is not at all DIFFICULT

MashAllah bro great results.

Thanks

Negative .... Google it

WD40 datasheet

"Surface Cautions:
Nearly all surfaces interact with WD-40 as they would any high grade aliphaticpetroleum spirit. Certain types of rubber will swell upon prolongedimmersion. Wax polishes and certain wax coatings may be softened by WD-40. Clear polycarbonate and polystyrene may stress craze or crack. Alwaystest surfaces first."

If scratches are deep then start with 1000 Grit and then move to 1500 and then 2000
