Dish Cleaner For Washing? help! (Myvi EZI) by muyo

[muyo]

everyone knows dish cleaner will dry up our clear coat if we use it as car shampoo but certain people might not know. i use to do that when i was 18 on my wira. as long i find its clean, who cares? today, as i know what is detailing i never use dish cleaner to wash my car anymore but my mom did. she use dish cleaner to wash her car for like 4 years alredi since she got her car but sometimes i help her wash with car shampoo of course. here is the result after for so long, and also she park her car under the hot sun when shes at work, the sun always shine at the passenger side in the morning till evening around 5pm. the paint also have bubble popped out, izit no clear coat thats why the base coat got bubble? can we call it "oxidized" or "clear coat failure"? the clear coat seems worn off i assume. need advice from sifus. much appreciated.

Details of the car: 2007 Myvi EZI, wash twice a month with dish cleaner (lime flavor, mostly people use to wash plates) under the hot sun everyday, never send to roadside car wash, never send to any detail shop before, original paint.

rear spoiler found hazzy & dull-ziness condition.

left fender same issue.

front left bumper found the same issue.

seems like the clear coat have been worn off. the base coat got bubble popped out.

rear left bumper, same issue.

Meg's Gold Class Shampoo

mf wash mitt

rinse off with O2

after wash rinse off with O2 is required and then wipe with Meg's water magnet towel (no twisting required as the towel can absorb alot of water)

then move to the wheels

Opt Power Clean & soft bristle brush for cleaning the wheels

agitating kao kao :stupid:

after the wheels then move to surface preparation, clay

at 1st i thought this is a normal stain that can be remove but it seems im wrong, i assume this is a chemical stain, looks like it glides down before.

Nice work man! Thanks for the pictures and reports!

Dishwasher? Better than my dad. He adopts the policy or total neglect! He leaves a thick layer of dust on top to protect the paint. Always looks oxidised, rough, and dull. The original colour is white bu it appears gray. And guess what I found few days ago, just below the mini spoiler at the boot, there is green moss!!!

By the way, I think the gray stuff on your pad is some of the car's paint isn't it? Not dirt..
