Preparing a ride fit for King`s - Massive interior detailing with wonderful help

[mx5]

I noticed on my Liquid Glass containter that it lists the ingredients. Are aliphatic hydrocarbons common in protectants? It also lists that it contains amino polymers and contains ultra-violet light sunscreen protectants and rust inhibitors. A couple of other things but I don`t remember the exact wording. Too bad Klasse doesn`t list their ingredients.

[DETAILKING]

That still doesn`t tell you much. Aliphatic hydrocarbons are straight chain compounds (propane, ethane, butane, hexane, etc,etc) opposite from the ring shaped ones that are called aromatics (benzene, toluene,etc,etc). It`s another fancy name for petroleum distillates, as they are mostly made of carbon and hydrogen. There are thousands of them, so it doesn`t really tell you much. And yes....they are very common in almost ALL wax products.



LG is an amino functional siloxane polymer....basically a silicone polymer as most early polymer products are this type. (a PDMS)



Look closely, it also says....contains microscopic polishing

and cleaning agents (something on that order), but then claims no abrasives......hmmmmmmmmmm

I figured it was something that wasn`t too exciting and was common. I still wonder why they actually list the ingredients, when it isn`t required by them. I still think this product gives great shine and lasts long.

Last year I had the opportunity to detail this church van, as prepared her to transport VIPs, but a year later....but the int??.but the interior need to be detail?.. exterior still looks great ..thanks to the Transportation team

Reason being heavily used for transportation & so huge to look after....





================================================== ===================

pic from a far

the famous pit stop lane



Tools required...
1. Brushes - get plenty various brushes.....ikea, diashio, 100 yen shops must be soft bristle
hard brushes for wheel brush for tyres only,
soft painting brushes for emblem rims (as it is clear coated) trims, interior
long brushes for wheel arch accesability,
soft hair brushes for leathers,
soft plastic bristle for fabric - seats & cushion, dash board, car seats,

tips....please do not use strength, check periodicaly of the cleaners, do not spray cleaners directly on any surface but brushes..to spread evenly rather than to agitate any surface...when the cleaning agent etched in(please please be extra gentle )

2. Cleaners
Meguiars APC - good but expensive
alternative Osren MPC - value for $$$ (www.osren.com)
My preffered & iots is safe for clear coat too OPT POWER CLEAN

Leathers cleaner OSREN..... ( i do not recomend to ise All In One ....2 in 1 products) most
leathers cleaners & polisheer & conditioner has 90 % Cleaning & 10 % cleaning - so what do u want to clean or condition ???)
the professional only choose the individual cleaners & individual
conditioner... as by their experiences they know what work best

FAB Breeze ...ma ma mia products..good on fabrics (only)....please rinse off with damp cloths well
alternative...try to get hold of industry strength carpet cleaner such as...
Johnson diversified....Taski 1 ...excellant product...PH safe & 3:100 part of water dilutions
i even used it on interior & work very well on leathers too...


3. Micro fibers
I used different cloths for different parts of the car, (we do not use floor cloths on our face)
same thing over here too......
2 for drying the car
1 for washing
2 for polishing & compounding purposes
2 for interior
old microfibers - pls dont throw ...recycle reuse them.....wheels, rims, engine compartment,
lowest car skirt area....most dirty & greasy area

TIPS - washing the dirty micro fibers i used dynamo, fab is cheaper...most of the time i will spray
on with OSREN MPC (www.osren.com)
soak over night - best to scrub, do not use softerner on yr all yr micro fibers (as it will lubricate
yr fibers & not allowing it to absorb any dirt)

Micro fibers single strands is like our single strand of human hair but divided into 16 parts...each
parts acts as to hold & traps dirt


4, pails....at least 2 -3 of them....one for the seats rinsing, another for dirt...door jams, side panel
rinsings, my last bucket for dirty side step, pedals

5. STEAMers if u can....steam it up...less harsh as compare to the conventional cleaning...as it
uses water steams at 3 bar preassure to clean...alternative way to clean


6. dressing - Leathers Meguiars Aloe leather conditioners, Optimum leather protectant ...alternatively yr expensive lorenzo...cleaning kit...it is the same but very expensive indeed

7. plastic & vinyl - please do not apply tyre shines here....or else it will attract dust & transfers to your sleevs....i say u spend a little & a bottle of Meguiars gold class interior & will last u for years)

nope on sun of the gun la, wxxxx, Kxxx, Txxxx Wxx la...later you will not want their after effect dirt

lastly you have to prepare to get dirty inorder to clean, the way up is down:buffing:
