Car Care and Detailing Dreams

[margallar]

it needs to be fed with oils, old single stage paint can get very dry, imagine dropping a drop of water on chalk. your compound might dry up on the paint making it look hazy, in addition the oils revive some of the paint so you might just save some paint from getting cut.

going straight to compound with single stage is called caveman compounding.

google "restoring single stage paint, autotrader," an article by mike phillips will show up. that will tell you the deal with single stage

i gave his system a shot and it worked very well, the paint looks very wet on my test spot, i plan on doing the entire car after my exams

Nice explaination....by oils do you mean a polish or wax?

[margallar]

polish or glaze, people in the detailing industry keep using the words polish and glaze interchangeably so you can just consider them one and the same thing. the reason you don't need to give this treatment to modern paints is that they aren't as porous as they have a clear coat

the most popular oiling product is m7 show car glaze, applying it is equal to working out at the gym

Mashallah very clean chamko chamko ride , i like this bike look like heavy bike shape and ur detailing give her new look

The article suggests m7 glaze..........is it ok if i use ultimate polish? I know its more abrasive but will it do the job without removing too much paint?

[margallar]

i cant exactly tell since i have not used ultimate polish, id say wait and arrange m7, nothing like it

what are you working on?

[Durrani_45]

these days have started a diy guys my main aim is to give deep finish to premio and since its silver colour that would be hard also to make its colour tone shift like kse bro did i mean to darken the colour , ahmed yar bro suggested me to go for glaze or ultimate wax since i dont have both what should i buy on my next visit to dubai autos currently having gc and 26 but giving coat by coat of each that will make the car skin a bit lighter said by ahmed yar instead of darkening it so what shluld i buy guys glaze or ultimate wax waiting for experts to come and tell

I'm going to work on white (possibly) single stage paint on a '96 khyber. I was thinking.....the article mentioned conditioning the car paint before using an abrasive......so can i try using a pure wax followed by a polish? Just a thought.....otherwise will go for m7.

white paint is the toughest form of single stage paint. it has a little more life than other coloured single stage finishes. but still i would suggest #7, i have tried a pure wax, while it did darken the colour the carnauba in it wont let you do much, if m7 is 100% than this would do 30%

id say clay>M7>m80>sealant or #26

Hmmm......i see. I'll try and experiment....won't go too high up in abrasiveness to stay safe. Thanks for information, bro! Good luck with your exams.

DC I need some info.
I have a new swift Pearl Red color, or maroon as it looks more like it
Now, tell me what should I do to protect the paint and get some nice shine.
Which wax and shampoo should I purchase? How often should I wax it? As it is a new car I dont think I need anything else to do
