Is it impossible to learn how to correct your car paint? Nope...it does not takes an alien to do it...
Written this thread to share with you how a detail/restoration works! but however it will be easier if one would have prevent it from being thrashed......
IMPORTANT NOTE
You dont need to goes thru this process if you prevented it!
Eg. "from the start" " at the begining" when your new car was delivered or after repainted -
All you need to do is a simple regiment of maintenance wash - best to do it yourself (preventing road side car wash - as most done by foam sponges & coarse MF (worn out) worse still rags!!!
If you are have a new car, YOU DONT NEED TO GET YOUR PAINT polish wax for protection! as each time a polish is done - a layer of clear coat is scrap away!!!
Recommended – a preventive maintainance (as it is so easy – by the owner himself)
a weekly wash – only requires 25 mins with ONR / 1 hours with shampoo
a Monthly wax – only requires 10 Mins with OCWax – 2/3 hours other wax
a 3 Monthly sealing – only 15 minutes to seals entire exterior car, paint, vynl, head lamp, plastic, bumper and most of all the glass
Avoid
Road side wash
wash when yr car when is not hot
Not under the SUN
waxing with rotary
as most paint (clear coat) damaged is done so subtlely by our weekly wash
Today patient
had a good good bath
just repainted 2 months ago -
after wash -we clayed using ONR as lube simply diluting 10ml with 500ml water (making it as the cheapest QD only 60 cents)
ta da - very nice reflection picture indeed
but dont be fooled by the hidden light
look at the differences of light – Flourecenes No differences
But Halogen – the sun immitating light – TADA it out
closer look
Now show me your arsenal
A china make rotary & 2inch foam pad & rubbing compound
* what happens now! When an inconsistent speed rotary use for polish and pressure applies, speed goes way off the course - some slow down & others just over rated speed - polishing product is either under or over broken down, will causes micro marring
When polishing with inaccurate speed rotary & high foam pad = heat builts up quickly, cut more than it is suppose to. Heat is what we must prevent!! least under the sun!
Lastly when AD rubbing compound is use on a high speed undependable rotary & thick pad...volcano results produce
Our Clear coat is as thick a news paper or cigarette wrapper & if it is just 50% cut/polish away it will be endangered species (permanent damaged)
ta da

Just a couple of years ago, when i started detailing
I was introduce to a 4 steps paint correction
start with wool pad then cutting foam pad then polishing foam & finish off with finishing foam
thats means I need to cut 4 times of the paint to get it leveled up. Thats lots of paint cut away
Now I gave him to try! briefly explain and showed him the right way with just 2 steps/product - cutting & polishing
ta da off he goes again
MAKITA M 9227 - a machine that can last a life time (prehaps a life time investment)
with the phenomenal combination of Optimum Red foam / wool pad & OPT Hyper spray compound OHSC & polish OHSP, where it is formulated base on 2 most powerful combination " AD aka abrasive diminishing + SMAT "small micro abrasive technology" ! Making it one of the most advance in this era
do u know whayt i am trying to scribbles
SECRET Step of Rotary ! the encrypted code
it doesnt takes an alien nor transformer to do so
all you need is
know how your rotary is design and rotate clock wise - dont goes against it
Always start from left to right - from top to bottom
Place yr pad on the furthest left glide till the furthest right, glide till the end and down it goes 1/2 pass on the 1st pass! Continue the rest till the bottom & repeat the 2nd /3rd - simply by gradual speed increase
Eg... for polishing
start with the lowest speed - for makita speed 1 then gradually moves up to speed 2 & stay at speed 2 & back down to speed 1
DON'T
Don't use pressure!! as it heavy enough!! it is design to use speed & product dependence! always follow the recommended speed of the manufacture!!
Under the sun! when the surface is hot
LIGHTNINGS
why lighting play a crucial part in detailing!! Imagine photography is all about lighting, try to shoot some thing that is in dark, nothing turn out nicely
No problem looking
is there any different? Hardly.... but under a proper light -
look again
micro marring & scratches appears ( are the not there in the above picture????) as they are well hidden in most car park lighting.....HALOGEN inmitates the sun without the heat, need to avoid while polishing – Thanks to halogen!!! what you dont see in others – now is shown.
The best it is still inspect under the SUN!!! esp a black car after a detail!!!
Tips for new car collection
it is always recommended to collect your new car – under the car noon day sun with your sunglasses on...you will see things you wouldn't regret before you agrees and drive home to discover later
the hologram before
AFTER ta da
only with Makita speed 1-2-2-1 with optimum red foam polishing pad & Opt Hyper spray polish
the other side not done
see again
ta da
moving on the left side
look at the before
do u ever wonder why marring & scratches & paint oxidation happen??? - more over how can a 2 months old paint be so thrashed ???
ta da
almost all gone except 1 or 2 rids
moving to the front
after compound by OPT hyper spray compound & wool
ta da
hologram aka buffing trials
finish with OPT red foam & OPT hyper spray polish
the key is to keep our pad flat - at all times
ta da
now - see the real reflection of a corrected paint
and
now simply protected with Optiseal - 15 minutes 4 times a year (the whole car now is protected against the harshness of sun, UV) OCWax in 10 minutes
thanks for viewing yet another detailien car detailing trials
thanks to Doc G the phenomena Chemist who invented these wonderful phenomena results
remember
Now does my new car need coating???? I would rather ask how would this new car being wash? by yourself or others...if it is not pls consider not to watse yr $$$..as the hardest coat is already applied on your paint - the clear coat, it is baked under 300-400 degree 3-4 hours, meant to be there as long as your ride drivable, my 2face paint lasted for 2 decade
remembered as most damaged is done so subtlely by our weekly wash, that we don't even realize
now
thrashed
and restored
remember hologram before
now
For it only takes a little patience and plenty of passion
just as adidas - nike - airasia says
impossible is nothing, Just do it, cos everyone can detail
