Opti coat lexus by detailien

---

what damages car paint? Clear coat threat ?

what creates swirls? what are the sign of your clear coat damages?

swirls


always from improper way of washing (how it is being handled)


what you cant see you wouldnt know

and usually what you wouldnt know it dont exist

I had to attend to 2 urgent call over last weekend - both are critical - one whom got water proofing residue stain the back of the car & another severely Clear coat damaged...both requires more than 10 hours each ....

read on......

my buddy whom likes his ride to be clean & mint condition ...so the cheapest way is to engage a bicycle detailer...one whom wash your ride -whether rain or sun daily...in the same bucket




under 300 watt halogen light inspection


how to wash your car?
where should we begin?

the highly contaminated place


years of dirt, brake dust accumulated?


after alien juices sprayed - aggitate with detailing brushes


be more gentle to your wheel...needn't to be treated harshly by some aggressive & corrosive cleaner like Degreaser or Super strength degreaser, acidic base wheels cleaner or some acids (as it is commonly use here)

petrol cap area



agitate with alien juice


then just brush it away


highly not well paid area

but it is always fun & encouraging to see how this rag can be transformed to riches

years of mud slud & dirt accumulated
but is easy when you know how


again



ta da



after clayed


the real deal for the day


more




this ride is daily cleaned / so car wash - none other than one bucket - thats is the Bicycle mobile detailer

one cloth and one towel wash 50 over cars aday in a single bucket of water stored at the back of the bicycle
tada
before


close up check again

now


tada


look again at the before

moving to the front passenger door

how paint can be restores

remember what you can see doesn't mean it is not found there!!!! prevention is always better than cure

the illusionist
pls pay extra attention

Not to be fooled - my hand shake during the shots

KC does give an in depth class about the knowledge of paint, inspection, evaluation, cleaning and protection which is what most of us need and should do most of the time. Before I met KC, my new car has some swirls, orange peel, etc and thought of want to correct it. After meeting KC, I decided not to correct it yet but maintain the paintwork the best I can with the right techniques, products, etc. To correct paint, need to sacrifice a layer of your clear coat in order to level out the defects. So you can only do so much. Sifu KC invite you for his class... better take opportunity.

I always take this serious & passionately ... as in my previous experience in counselling abused youth (it will not be a laughing matter) sad sad to see the ignorant & the complacent as cars is the 2nd most expensive investment after house why should we not, govern our wealth in the right manner Thanks for your kind words again [QUOTE] Quote: Originally Posted by integritydetail If you were taught rinseless washing first you'd be asking questions like: why are you wasting so much water, and how do you get around the whole car quickly without waterspots. :-c
