Car Care and Detailing Dreams (Part 2)

[autophile]

On the insistence of Autophile Jr. finally I gathered my strengths together and washed the daily runner. Results were rewarding on seeing reflections.

I recommend you get it professionally done as it needs to jack up the car and proper masking to protect from over spray , take it to a reputable 3s (Toyota etc) or a detailing business. It's very durable and can last a while. Google Raptor bed liner for reference.

Use WD-40 on these Disc

Never ever ever ever use anything like that on your disc. If u learned basic science in school you must remember the word "friction"
Friction between the pads and disc make the car stop and by applying WD-40 or any lubricating material you will create a slippery surface between disc and pad which will massively effect the braking. After washing car or driving through rain the rust on discs is actually oxidation of contamination and it goes away as soon as the car is braked for a few feet.

Bro you'll have to get the car jacked up first. Get the undercarriage washed. Give some time for drying. You can get it from Suzuki 3s for 3k-5k I guess.

Dear All,

I have a black car and it has some white spots on its doors (these usually appear when people park their cars too close to my car in different parking lots and thn push the doors of their cars against the door of my car to get out of their cars - hope I am able to make you all understand my point). I already have turtle black box and macguiars ultimate wax that helps to get rid of atleast 80% of these spots/white patterns on doors but still few are left and it bothers me alot. Couple of years earlier i got my car cleaned from a service station and they used cutting cream to get rid of these and it was very effective.

Now I need suggestion is it okay to use a high quality cutting cream or compound again? Will it fade the paint etc. if not thn whats the best available option? or shall I get myself a polishing compound to get rid of these completely.

Regards,
