Tip : Caring for car paint

Tip : Caring for car paint - I am a car enthusiast and as a car enthusiast my eyes often 'disturbed' if you saw the cars are still relatively new, but the condition of the paint has faded or mildewed. Maybe the car owners could not take care of their car's paint or perhaps many do not know how to care for their vehicle paint so that the condition of their car paint look dull. For those who have the pocket more, could have the car brought to the salon for the polished car. However, I do not really recommend to frequently bring the car to the salon car, because the saloon cars usually use a 'heavy' and 'hard drugs' to polish the paint layer, resulting in eroded.
For that, I suggest to take care of your own vehicle paint at home. As well as saving money, cars can be more durable paint you know! Here I want to give tips on caring for a car paint that can be done alone at home.
Previously you need to know the type of paint your vehicle. Type of vehicle paint please note as a benchmark in choosing a suitable care products for your vehicle.Basically divided into three types of car paint, the first is the type of paint Nitro Celulose (NC) are commonly used on cars in the era of the 80s. NC paint type is unstable in terms of color and luster that it needs polish frequently. To treat the NC paint polish needed drugs with a silicon base material. Products that can be used is Amway Silicon Glaze.
The second is the type of paint Nitro Celulose Modified (Modified NC) which is used on the cars in the mid-90s era. The basic ingredients are virtually identical to the Modified NC NC usual, the difference is in the NC Modified existing hardener material which makes the colors more robust and stable. A good paint care products are used together with ordinary NC, ie drugs with basic ingredients silicone polishes kinds Amway Silicon Glaze.
The last type is a car-based polyurethane (PU) which is used by cars in 2000 and above. Cat PU has a higher durability than the NC and NC Modified. To take care of PU paint, is not recommended to use silicone-based products. It is advisable to use materials that are organic. Carnauba material best suited for the type of PU paint polish. Many options of products that can be used as such as Turtle Wax, Meguiar's, Mother's, Zymol, etc.. If you want that is not too expensive to use the kit (I recommend canned blue or red). Make sure you choose wax carnauba wax material contained therein, instead of silicon. Oh yes, for all these types of paint, I do not advocate the use of compound for routine maintenance. Use of the compound may erode the paint, and should only be used if there is a little scratch in.
Before trying, I need to remind you to distinguish the term polish and wax.Polishing derived from the word 'polish' which means the polish, by rubbing (usually with a compound material) until the surface is eroded and the color becomes dull luster. The car only needs polishing if the paint is dull or if there are scratches. If not dull, proper maintenance is by waxing or coating of wax. Polishes and wax products also differ, so be careful in choosing. Notice the word car polish and car wax. If too frequent use of the product car polish, car paint we can grow thin, unlike wax, even more often we apply our car wax on the paint, the more protected the paint.
In this blog, I will give tips on how to apply the polish and wax on your car's paint.After getting a product that fits your car's paint, it is time to try. Make sure your car parked in places that are not exposed to direct sunlight. First wash your car body first. No need to use the car unless the car body shampoo filled with mud or stains are difficult to remove. Once the car is dried with a chamois cloth, start polishing.If your car's paint is still in good condition and has not been dull, direct polishing process is bypassed and you only need to do the waxing. Prepare medication polishes, wax, sponges, and soft, clean cotton cloth or better yet if there is a microfiber cloth.
Pour medication into a sponge polish (if using a polishing liquid medication) or cocolkan sponge into a paste (if using drugs polishing paste) and then rub it into the car body with a circular motion or up and down (depending advice on product packaging). Wait about 5 minutes to dry slightly. After 5 minutes, wipe with a former drug polished cotton or microfiber cloth. No need to twist. In order for maximum results, do the polishing perpanel, do not jump a car. If one body is finished, continue with the process of waxing. The trick with polish, but due to the waxing just coat the paint with wax, waxing process will feel that much lighter than the process of polishing. You also do not have to wait five minutes before cleaning the remnants waxnya.
In order for your car is always shiny and free of mold, do waxing at least once a month. If you are diligent enough, do it more often, guaranteed paint your car will always look new and shiny. You also do not have to polish often, the result is still a thick layer of paint and protected, if you want to resell your car will definitely bid for a higher price.
Good luck!
