Good effort Bad..

Bro, you posted! Hahaha.

Wow, awesome stuff man. Your car's in very good shape. KC did the detailing on your ride before right? :top:

Btw, as for your wife's reaction. better tell her to get used to it.

Even my missus also complaining that I'm spending too much time washing my car... Aiseyman... :24:

 

[Eggie86]

Oh yea, another thing, some before/after pics would do wonders. Hehe. Like the before/after on your rims. Kekeke. Cos it's the easiest to notice no thanks to the brake dust.

Btw, is the Turtlewax Scratch&Swirl Remover is good to use?

 

[seech]

Wow! Looks really good. Nice depth and reflection on the black!

 

[badmd]

thanks eggie , seech. I havent met KC yet , but i'm sure he's a decent guy and a good man, most of the stuff were bought with him and posted by mail.I'll be thrilled if he could do detailing on my bm.What you see there is just my beginners work, tremendously help by all the advise form the sifus here , i am still learning the steps.. The turtle wax in my view does help to get rid of the swirls and minor scrathes , but not the deep ones , but one good thing is that it last very long compared to others.
thanks for all your encouragement and support.Contented

Bro, all by 'hand job'? Use any polishing machine for that wonderful result?

Good to hear that. You must meet KC in the flesh some day. Haha. Detailing guru of Malaysia. :top:

ahtu , all that by " handjob " larr, using the opti spray wax makes it very easy but still tiring.i 've used black and decker rotator and turtle wax products 4 months ago , the downside is its just a standard rotating speed , have to use it really long to get the best result.the car has not been to any carwash / car waxing shop for the past 3 yrs , carwashed and detailed by me all this while. Worry too much about the snow wash content and their non use of MF , so i just washed on my own.Always keep a spare of diluted ONR in spray bottle in my car when i go out station, very handy.!!
tq guys . would love to learn more about rotators later on.

Good good good. Self wash is the way to go.

In all my 3 years of driving my E32, I've only sent it for car wash once, and that was on a recommendation from another member here. After that, it's all self-wash, more so when I was introduced to the joy of using ONR.

Also keeping a spray bottle of ONR and Quik Detailer in my boot all the time. Kekeke. Bro, I used to own a B&D Random Orbital Buffer too, and like you said, only single speed, and definitely doesn't equal the cutting power of a 'normal' rotary like Makita etc. Sure, it beats the result if we use 'handjob' [sounds very wrong :4:] but well, nothing can beat the rotary I guess!

HI Buddy
Thanks for your kind words- definitely would love to meet up with you....& if all possible lets do a hands on clinic in APR
CONGRATS, you did your detail brilliantly & well - keep it up (its is not how long you have been detail but by not sending to a road side car wash you did the right thing - kept her from prematurely damaged- thank you for making that point )
by now you should have lots of elbow grease & muscles - keep it up - when u consistently carried out yr care - there is nothing much to worry - like wise in our home a daily sweeping & a weekly mopping does more than once a year spring cleaning

Hahaha... I can't find better word than hand job. anyway, I am really impressed by the works i hv seen in this forum. I enjoy spending whole day during weekend detailing my car just to get my body sweat.

BTW, can anyone tell me why ONR is so magical to car detailing? Where can I get one of it to try out?

Hehehe. Impressed eh? We have some very amazing detailers here, and some decent amateurs here too sharing their experiences. As for ONR, best that you PM either Seech or KC.

Bro, share some pics la of your workout. Every weekend detailing your ride ah...
