Car Care and Detailing Dreams (Part 3)

Eid Day time pass!

Theres no real alternative to dry dusting, best you can do besides a quick wash is to spray a liquid detailer spray/ liquid wax and wipe with a Micro Fiber towel.

Collinite is safe on all colors and is very durable if applied properly. Try to apply 2 coats with a day in between them. Wash with any mild shampoo before the second coat. While applying dont apply too much on a panel.

Why is the color faded?

Thanks for increasing my knowledge...
Wanted to know that is paint protection film recommended? What are its pros and cons?

[fire-blade]

Not recommended for use in Pakistan, or anywhere unless on a high value car. Pros include paint protection from little rocks which cause chipping and also from scratches. Cons include a complicated application process and high cost. The cheap ones arent worth it. Just wax your car, if you want something extra use a sealent or go the glass coating route.
My car currently is glass coated and im using collinite 845 on top of that. If you have 845, use it, you wont be disappointed.

My car is 1.5 years old now.....uptill now i am using waxes of good quality for the protection but now i want to use sealant..infact i regret not using sealants from the day one...as i can see clear scratches and stone chipping here n there all over the body...experienced guys suggest me a good sealant and also advise that do i still need to wax the car if i use sealant on it?

A great effort indeed, Fireblade!
Here's one of my latest effort:

Due to Monsoon season, mudy roads and dusty windstorms, i observed that the engine bay of my ride bacame quite dirty earlier than expected. So today, I took up the exercise of cleaning it thoroughly. Here are the Before/After pics for interested friends. Products: Meguiar’s! BEFORE [image] [image] [image] [image] [image] AFTER [image] [image] [image] [image] [image]

Fresh application shows astoundingly excellent results but the effect deminishes way too quickly......

Try Ultimate and you won't regret

Question: Can I prepare the diluted waterless wash solution with ECH20 and store it for a period of time or does the diluted solution go bad or something?

[usman_haider84]

I do this all the time.
It works perfect.
