@ Usman Bhai,
Hope to see you on the next meet in Karachi

Sorry I got late in posting, yesterday was hella busy with my lil girl...but here you go mate....Nomi sahab……Mafia….. I read yer attitude as “you no touch my car, I no kill you” You were too reserved during the initial skype talk….first time we saw your ride……I have seen some very cool shicks….but this one was by far one of the best…..I have a little something against the black an chrome part combo on the rollers…. I like em blingin in chrome…..but that’s just me….coming to the ride…Well let me tell you one thing, the way I see it, yer doing the most with what you can manage…I know from the shine what prods are being used, an I`m impressed by the output your managing from entry level prods….the overall package is impressive an.that my brother is what matters the most…..very nicely kept car….MashAllah! I was expecting an evo from you though An I know the story of the tires, waisay hi thora chair char karta rehta hoon...the way the dust was stuck I knew it was fresh tyre dressing that caught on.....find a solution!

I'm quite lazy.I have only covered half of the interior.Can anyone please tell me where can i purchase detailing brushes.My dad liked the shine.He said it's a unique shine.Not the cheap one we get from a local interior polish.

Hmmmm, detailing brushes......well you can easily source local back scrubbers and other various brushes from the household section of any good supermarket.....nice work on the interior, considering its a 2k model.... keep it up bro!

[vague_one]

I have no such history in detailing

just using normal car shampoo and polish (now adays I am using sonax Polish & wax color NanoPro)

now yesterday I had purchased micro fiber cloth and sonax car shampoo.

Plz tell me what to do next

I am also posting pictures of my car (needs a wash :$)
its cultus 02 39K driven

Brother why are you using polish on a regular basis? Its a 02 model....the paint has seen a lota good years....minus the hood, cant quite figure out what the marks in the middle of it are....but stop polishing it, wax it man...you need to preserve it......an sonax prods.....hmmmmmmmm...try shifting to megs or somthing better.

Hey Guys.
Today i gave a bath to my Alto.
It was very dirty because of rain.
1st decided to get it serviced from pump but then i decided to Wash it myself.
I took a wrong decision and it took me 2 hours to wash this dirty thing.
Sorry guys didn't captured more pics after wash because i was really tired.

Some Pictures:

Nice effort put in little guy! Cant even look through my rides front screen.....:-# aine gandi gaddi!

Brother, if you can source 3Ms Ultra Fina and 3Ms Rosa, nothing like it….have the guy use a proper da, for waxing use the Megs Finishing Pad, and for polishing the Megs Polishing Pad.....that should be just about it.

Hahahahahahahah, JazakAllah Brother! Yani keh aab bhai par ticket bhi lagay ga??

@vague...

100% agree with you...if you read my post to Imran where I have mentioned about intentions to experiment with 3M performance...if you read I have said only after I get cozy with the product...and by cozy I mean once I conquer it by hand and then by a DA...so you are looking at Fusion games somewhere 8-9 months down the road...

And you know me...I took 2 months playing only with Soft 99...got my game going on it and then moved up...so I am the type of a guy who actually does want to and gets to know a product. We've had this discussion multiple times as to why I am not yet investing in a DA...because I want to first take my hand application to its limit first...get the best possible result out of my hand, get it steady and then move to a machine...it's like perfecting your handwriting before moving on to typing on the computer...

Yes last two weeks I have been playing with three new products...well it was only because I had picked them up...initial idea was just to get Gold Class alone and play with it. Since I couldn't find GC at first in Dubai that is why I picked up NXT...and then I saw 3M...and out of curiosity I just picked up a bottle because you had dropped the name so often and then later on I found GC as well, so I ended up with 3 products.

However...the game plan was to use a mind blowing product every three or four weeks and for inbetween weekly sessions use GC. So the game plan has not changed...Megs treatment every week and then every three weeks or so now it is going to be performance finish...and yes once again let me emphasize that I absolutely absolutely want to get to know this product inside out and it's performance on my car...and that is why the Megs DA has been lined up for delivery in June Inshah Allah...Plus my personal opinion I really don't think it needs fusion...the result I have got with an imperfect application...I am just drooling over the thought what the result will be with the perfect application and I am not even currently thinking what the Goth will look like with DA application.... hmmm and seriously I would be more interested in good paint cleansing (the harmless way ofcourse) over Fusion. Fusion should only be tried once you have reached a level where you can not get more out of a product. Personally, correct me if I am wrong...once performance finish is perfected...I don't think you can get much better (I am not referring to cleansing and preserving)...apnee tharak mein kuch karna ho to alag baat hai...

Also to add more emphasis to your point...why do you think I am now feeling sorry for the other waxing stuff I have coming in the pipeline from the states...

[Mistero]

just figured out why I missed out on the TAG issue of the MF...I am used to using Sonax...and Sonax intelligently has no TAGs stitched into the Micro Fiber Cloth...but sadly Sonax after two washes also has no Micro Fibers stitched into the cloth

my question still stands

[accord7362]

Bohat hoo gayeee Dodo , Meguires & Mother did a final wipe off , of the rotation as I am flying back tonight for my duty rotation & this evening Red Lady will go in hibernation.

I was great rotation ,G2G at Lahore & Karachi , love to meet all of You.

Just the brotherly advice ,its better other fascinate with your skills, rather than you fascinate with product , move slowly & keep the thirst in you & command the products slowly & surly.

Carnauba waxes are most user friendly waxes but believe you in me , while using Dodo first time my hands were shivering because I'm still learning in different application & usage of Carnauba

good luck & do remember me in your prayers.
