Car Care and Detailing Dreams

[Skill]

AOA everybody.

I am currently in Pakistan for a short time. Father recently got a new Corolla in black and boy oh boy have the dealership guys put swirls on it while preparing it for delivery. Plus the bloody dog took some paint off with his claws.

Today I got Turtle's Black Box. I tested in a 1x1 foot area and was relatively pleased with the quick test. Have anyone of you tried it?

Also I don't have a buffer with me here so any of you guys specifically in Rawalpindi and Islamabad have one?

For a comprehensive reply,refer to the master detailer Usman.
Well,as your father's car is newer,the paint must be vibrant.
My short knowledge using this wax for around a year tells that this wax is very good in term of shine,depth,long lasting protection, can perform miracles if used on a well prepared surface especially on relatively older cars which could have problems like rock chipping,de-shaped moldings and crannies in front and rear bumper joints, If you wax with a conventional carnuaba wax it dries white and you buff it off, wax settles in those nooks and crannies, dries white, and is extremely difficult & impossible to remove the residue with out a sharp scraper because it's in such smaller spaces/chips making it more highlighted so BB is best cover for such white spots around the said areas.
If your father could carry on saving the original paint after you step back to abroad then you may opt for further high end waxes like Megu's GC & NXT right from today as your car is already new, it will serve you lot better if the answer is no,i brotherly advise you stop spending further.

@v1 great work done excellent result, but you should have asked the owner for a more resilient finish covering like the autofinness or some other good sealant. cuz the way the owner has kept it, this effort would diminish soon back to a normal looking car

@MominHaq, nice that you are here, may be we can plan a meet and have some chit chat, also may be lend some hand for working on the car if you need I have ordered Collinite 476s, if it gets to me before you leave back, we can clean the ride and give it a double coat of that for a long lasting protection

@imaan nice work, keep it going and hopefully it will looking ever better and short on time or no short on time, side mirrors ko saaf kerne main almost 20 seconds se 60 seconds lagte hain, dont know why you think its a time time consuming thing, pictures laine main to itna time laga ho ga haina? (yup dant pari h)

Yes time is consumed when you have to clean the minor things, like door jams, boot lid jams, hood jams, grill top that hides under the hood so on and so forth, but if these spaces are not cleaned they make a very good job look like a sloppy job, so try to manage to add 10-15 mins more into the routine and clean these areas as well (along with side mirrors :P)

@fawad, sure dear, you can contact us when you have to visit and we surely will try to meet up
Fawad, the blade used on shazos ride was not to cut off the paint, it was used to cut off the extra rubber that got baked on it. and after removing that rubber the clear coat went through the detailed, paper sanding, cutting, polishing stages.

@chaudhry9, dubai autos i-8 has gold class paste wax, and a lot of megs other stuff (from deep Crystal line to gold class and then to ultimate line of products), you should go and check them out. Plus i will be contacting you soon, i might have resolved your water stain issue.

@anzaidi apni car ko theek kerna shuru ker do its getting a lot of praising and you should not let your fans down

[MominHaq]

Skill: Thank you for your detailed reply.

Jugno: That sounds absolutely awesome, I'm almost always free these days. Plus I have to extend an apology for not being in contact(on facebook). Let me know whatever time suits you. Maybe we can bring along Mehroze Bhai.

[JuGnO]

It will be great to meet you momin
PMed you my number and some details so to keep this thread off of off topics

i always forget dubai autos i8 lol,i called pindi one n shahid autos,even shahid autos is gonna have it by next week,i guess then i'll get it after exams

those spots really turn me off when i wash the car but still it looks better than the dusty car

The pictures which i completely forgot about :P

[MominHaq]

Thought I should share the results of the Black Box. Since it is a new car it is very shiny, but the black box has added depth. Plus it's a lot easier to wipe off the dust.

It is rather difficult to photograph a black car so this might look a little more saturated than it is.

I have to go over all the doors, other than that the car is done.

[fahadsoulsnatcher911]

^^One word WOW !
MashAllah awesome shine

[margallar]

momin bhai ap humain bewakoof bna rhe hain, yeh car to blue hai , nice shine, really nice, both your skills and the car's paint are equally good

Koe detailer bhai mujhe detailing stuff dilaaney me help kr sakta hai kiya? I mean, someone who can ship me the stuff and I send him the via some money transfer service... ?

Sirr....arder lagain !

[margallar]

the guy i had found for online purchase of detailing stuff says that he will entertain orders starting from $100. sooo well, autogeek has good deals and we have a relatively small variety here. so i was thinking we should make a wishlist and once it's value reaches $1o0 we can order. his conversion rate is $98 per rupee (thats what the bank charges him, i have seen his bill), he takes a small amount as profit.

Nice work bro! MashAllah! Lacks a bit on the glossy side....try to get that dialled in next time!
