Car Care and Detailing Dreams

[thekonsultant]

@skill...

white bhi anay wali hay....grey ka to sirf teaser tha by Umair... abhi to white alto bhi hay...

People... today we had a mini gtg at Umair place.... awesome awsome experience that can't be explained with words..... I promised to be at Umairs place at 11:00...was held in traffice so, was there at 11:10am. A very very warm welcome....by umair... entered the main gate... daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaam.... i dont know... either my eyes just poped out and droped on is car or was the graines just about to explode out of the paint..... A very very very nice prep was done by Umair for Ahmed bhai.

Ahmed bhai was applying NXT to his car.... thin layers... so thin that the you can still see the shine n reflections in it.

So there was no point in talking to ahmed bhai at that stage as he goes into DEAF MODE while he is detailing... and there was no way he would let me apply... so i asked Umair to give me Karcher, so that i can just wash off the dirt on my car.

I had already prepared the car for a coat of GC last evening, by applying Mothers Hand Glaze couple of day back n seal that with Turtle Ice Synthetic Liquid. Yesterday, i top it off with Mothers Reflections Top Coat. Had to take family for grocery n shopping at LINK ROAD Lahore which is all digged up and full of dust, so i preferred to give it a quick rinse with KARCHER and then dried it using TURTLE PLATINUM SERIES DETAILER, using best Microfiber i have to date (thanks to UMAIR).

Well the White City was, rinsed, dried, tryes were dressded again and was parked under a small tree to cool the paint. Though it was sunny, but cold wind was blowing, so it was good.

Then, came inside, Ahmed Bahi was about to buff off the NXT, simple one buff, nxt was off and what? it was like wet, buffed again the same part, more wetness. Eventually the whole car was buffed off in few minutes and ahmed bhai make sure that nothing is left... and the whole car was Drolling Wet Looking, with perfect shine and reflections, plus the depth in color took us to a day dreaming mode.

Nothing much can be done, and nothing more needed. It was out of this world. Perfect balance of shine, reflection and depth. Before the grains were popping out, and now we could see them like swimming in dark grey ocean surface. The FOllowing pictures of GANDOLF ( UMAIR's GREY CITY) will do some justice but real time eye capture cant be explained.

Well....for more pictures... u need to request umair.... above pics were from my Iphone 4 - 5 megapixle camera.....

Then came the turn of White City ( Casper ), yes i named it last night after brain storming. So Casper was brought inside, blow off the light dust on it and then AHMED Bhai was in action applying a coat of GC ( Thanks to Umair for sharing it with me ). Think layer, pleasent fragrance and application by Ahmed Bhai was a scene to be a part of.. so those who missed today mini gtg, dont miss out next time.

While Ahmed Bhai was applying GC, Umair start washing The White Alto. He rinsed the car thoroughly, applied Ice Shampoo all over it, I cleaned the tyres n trim and it was finally rinsed by KARCHER. Ahmed bahi still in application of GC, i dried the car using a clean fluffy Microfiber while using Turtle Platinum Detailer. the car was still holding the shine because of the previous treatments done by Ahmad Bhai.

So white alto all dried out, Casper was layerd with GC. Now Ahmed Bhai started taking the GC off n i started applying my mixture formula on White Alto. Just a spray on formula i made at home by mixing some MOTHERS REFLECTION WAX and MOTHERS STEP 3. It was sprayed on, wiped to spread and left for a while. Did panel by Panel and half car was done. Then appliesd Mothers TOP Coat to it. ( JUST HALF CAR - as other half was in sunlight.

At the same time Ahmed Bhai was done with taking off the GC and it was gr8. Good reflection, and the added depth made the CASPER to float in air. Since my car was in shade, so ahmed bhai took a break and his car was in half shade, so i asked him to change his car direction so that i can cover the other half... While i applied the same on the other half n topped it with mothers top coat, the car was done. Final buff after 20 minutes and it was a shiny star.

Then what, NXT on CASPER... i was lucky to get my hands on it and start applying...but AHMED BHAI couldn't just sit idel... he is so passionate about detailing that he took it from me in just showing me how he would do and then in showing showing he did the whole car HATS OFF TO AHMED BHAI...... u are gr8

NXT was applied... were a bit tired and Yummy...luch call was made... so we had a healthy feast, gr8 gr8 hospitality by Umair's ( UMAIR THANKS YOUR MOM FOR THE DELICIOUS BIRYANI, it was very very yummy and now all in the tummy )

Having lunch in out tummy, and gaining the strenght back, we came out, and this time i had the honor or removing NXT off the CASPER - only half side...other was done by AHMAD BHAI..... and once done... the jaws just dropped down.... the car was first floating in air with GC... but now it was swimming in opean caspian sea........yesssssssssssss..... the most utterly, mouth watering , jaw dropping WET LOOK was on it...................again something that cant be explained or captured by our cameras but a thing to experience only with actual naked eye.

With that, we come to the end of our mini gtg thanks to UMAIR. Call were comming from AHMED BHAI HOUSE and mine tooo... as we thought we will be over with the GTG by 1 pm... and it was 3;30 pm and we were still admiring the wetness of the cars without actual water on it.

Here is the CASPER after todays makeover

AOA guys

just wana share some work of mine
ur comments needed
thnx

good reflections but seems car is just new however what products u used ?

[Mistero]

sir,(zamant before arrest),my short knowledge says,there is no big difference inbetween detailer and this particular leq wax,works like a charm over paste wax too,and every thing i am writing down is from my past experiments.
regards.

sir I know a certain gentleman here who uses a NAUBA wax to clean his car instead of a shampoo...and by looking at his car...you would say WOWWWWWWW....but does that mean nauba should be classified as a shampoo

A lot of people use Speed wax as a glaze...but does that classify it as a glaze....

so sir I am sure you must be using it as a detailer but frankly speaking it is not...and also one of the reasons why you car is attracting so much dust...you and I have the same problem...and will keep on facing it as long as we keep on applying high nauba content detailers or quick waxes on our cars as cleaning/regular wipe agents

[kse101]

Alright, so mainay bi soucha abb hath saaf kar hi liyay jain bauht hogai clicking
Ahmed bhai parked his car outside gate and now i start giving it a Turtle Wax Ice shampoo bath.. kashif bhai also helped in cleaning rims/wheels/trims etc..

Shampoo and rinse finish.. after that kashif bro dried the car with turtle platinum and then he applied Mother's Top Coat and that's it.. we got great reflections and shine in ahmed bhai's alto because he really kept his car neat and clean..

While my car was parked under a small tree shade.. and meanwhile White City was getting GC coat more pictures coming soon.. (H)

Alla write up sir as usual but to tell you i am not into daily and even a mid weakly detailing but on mood and on holidays with the ejazat of ghar walee;).
The other thing is i mostly use it as you already have mentioned like when i dont have enough time to do dewaxing ang layering again means half day job,simple shampoo and quick wax but some times i have tried it over the waxing layers and found it to be more superior than a regular detailer,try it once and look the after effects,you will recommend this type of application too,i am pretty sure:).

Sir that is exactly my point...we should know what product we are getting and how and when to use it...you are using it exactly as a quick wax...and not as a detailer...while haseeb wants a detailer...if he uses quick wax like a detailer...in a few days he would have been holding his head and would have lost all respect and faith in detailers....

and yes it will have more effect than a detailer because it is a wax...and just like you cannot put wax on your car three times a week...neither should you use quick wax as often as a detailer...and yes we do go through 10 - 15 layers of wax before ideally we should de-wax...so wax over previous coatings is done...but with time gaps in between...because you have to wear out the previous coatings a lil bit...

Don't take my post in a negative way, but it is just clearing up the facts...we do not want people to use good products in the wrong manner and then lose faith in products/brands and detailing all together....

Ok guys here is something i got for all u guys , tried to cleaned the engine and succeeded to some extent .. Although its not upto the mark but still much better than before .. Started cleaning the engine on 22-2-12 but due to limited time could not complete on the same day so took 2 days to complete the whole process .. got some cuts in hand lost some blood , back was paining like hell barely reached office today .. Cleaned the whole engine by hand and where my hand could reach possible i cleaned those parts also. Atlast yesterday at 11 pm i finally finished the whole process .. .. it was a hell of a job to do .. but at the end i was quiet happy with my efforts here are the pic for u guys .. Feedbacks , Suggestion are always welcome ..

Ustad G I wont be upto ur stratification level , there are few points i missed but yaqeen karo band baj gaye the saf karta karta

These are the before pic

And here comes the After wash pics

Products Used :-

- Water (cold and hot)
- Turtle Pre soak ( Purchased from Dubai autos in Rwp, 400 ml for Rs 500/-, it was of blue color)
- Brushes (Specially feeder saf karna wala :p, that helped alot) , brush with long handel and a tooth brush.
- 3 Cloths ( one for removing the dust , the other a little bit wet to clean the dirts from the wires and the third one dry cloth to clean the wet wires)
- slight spray of 7c and cleaned that with dry cloth after 5 mins so it dosent catches much dust.
