DIY - Car Care & Detailing thread

Thanks for clarifying @ghodlur.
Recently I purchased Meguiar's NXT Car Wash and Microfiber.
I do not have a water pressure washer with me. How do I start cleaning the car then? Should I pour water first and then clean it with Shampoo?

 

1) Use Jopasu duster to sweep off the dirt.
2) Cleanse the car with water
3) Wash the car with the shampoo+ water combination. Use two bucket method. One bucket for dipping the shampoo solution, second one for rinsing the wash mitt. Do not dip the wash mitt in the concentrate bucket before rinsing
4) Cleanse the car again to remove any soapy residue
5) Wipe the car with Microfibre, use dedicated MF for absorbing the water. Wring and re-use till water is completely absorbed
6) Use a cleaner MF to wipe the car.

This is based on my washing routine.

 

Thanks @ghodlur.

 

Is anyone tried/aware of above tricks?

You can find WD-40 here: http://www.greenzcarcare.com/wd-40

 

I would not advise such liberal use of WD40 for detailing. For me WD40 is a spray for loosening stubborn rust. Fo detailing there are good products out there.

 

Well, WD 40 is a cheap option, but there are lot, for example to tackle the heavy dirt on fabric seats I prefer the 303 Fabric spot remover.

 

Has anyone used the 3M Cream wax ? How is it compared to Formula one and the rest ? I planned to get the Meguiar's Tech Wax but the short of Vitamin M led me to the 3M one. Please refer the attached picture below.

 

Recently I have changed my wiper. The old wiper has left some mark in the outer region in the wind shield. Is there any way we can remove them.

 

@ghodlur /Experts I have a question,
Last sunday I have washed my punto with shampoo, now today i can find some dust on my punto, can i go ahead and just clean using dry micro fibre cloth or do i need to follow two bucket method of cleaning....
TIA
