Polishing. — Toyota Camry, 2.4 liter, 2008

  Toyota Camry 24 2008

Soon the snow will fall. Yesterday I devoted the whole day to the Camry. From the beginning, at the sink, washed the bottom, the engine, and of the car, respectively. Then he took all the bells and whistles I have, beer, hands, of course - the same, and for polishing. Here's what happened.

Did you do the polishing yourself? =) Just like a mirror shines =) Well done =)

Nightmare. And how did you polish it, with a sponge or special means?

Myself. My hands still hurt. From 11 a.m. to 6 p.m.

DaKak-toTak 24.01.22

And where did the whole process take place, on the street?
Here, too, I washed the car in the country, I found small scratches on the body, I need to do something with them, although they are not so noticeable.

I put the car until something I don’t really want to drive, it happens.

From the beginning, the whole body was rubbed off from any byaki. And then the usual polish in body color, 2 times. The effect is not very visible in the photo, it looks better live. I applied a polish with a damp sponge, then rubbed the special. car wipes.

Yes, not deep at all, it will also be necessary someday to deal with this topic, to see how beautiful it will look.

On the street, and scratches are polished if they are not deep.

DaKak-toTak 24.01.22

I agree, it shines =) But once I tried to polish it, but I didn’t achieve the effect, so I think I need to drive it to the polishers, but it’s true now they promise rain, it’s cold, everything is somehow not up to the car =)

Yes, they do shine with us after washing. Did you polish? to protect the body a little. I polish twice a year, in spring and autumn.

D
DaKak-toTak 24.01.22

Yeah, I once heard that they polish with special devices, with a bang and from the heart, it looks awesome.

Professional polishing is cool, they will come out like new from a car dealership.

DaKak-toTak 24.01.22

Mmm, yes, yes, as soon as I get into this business.
By the way, I have now dismantled my subwoofer, I want to remake the box for it, bring it into the salon and free up space in the trunk. One light bulb burned out on the nameplate at the back, now it feels like it is half lit - grief. =) I plan to make a two-level nameplate backlight, remove it, add diodes and a stop signal output so that it lights up additionally when you press the brake pedal, it will be brighter and more beautiful, a lot of business, you need to do it ...

sap596s 24.01.22

Enough for a year, no scratches left.

D
DaKak-toTak 24.01.22

And the front inserts in the PTV are also peeled off =) But this is solved with the usual glue for the moment for plastic, I have already done a couple, we need the rest, until it is very cold, otherwise it will be more difficult in cold weather and somehow there is no reason to drive with half-burning headlights =) Boom do =)

sap596s 24.01.22

Good plans. We have to put it into practice.

DaKak-toTak 24.01.22

Two more months and can he fall out or are you already being transferred in places? =)

s
sap596s 24.01.22

We must before the snow falls.

D
DaKak-toTak 24.01.22

It’s a nightmare, but it seems to be only the beginning of autumn =) Well, it’s still ahead and winter is just around the corner, we have snow on Borus recently and on Gladenkaya, I was generally in shock, winter is already creeping up to us ...

sap596s 24.01.22

Won't you believe? flew by today. - 3 per night.

DaKak-toTak 24.01.22

Well, let's hope it starts earlier and ends earlier, although winter always goes on for a long time =(

Some kind of anomaly, the winter was kick-ass, the summer too. ( in the West )

Today I bought Doctor Wax in gray color for testing, today I tried to polish the left doors (all in small scratches from grass on the sides of the country road). I was very pleased with the result, they shine like a cat's ... :)
At the weekend they promise +16, I'll try to rub everything.
A friend of the saleswoman said that the Turtle polish was even better, but there was no such gray, only neutral. IMHO the color should fill in the scratches better.

A anti-scratch thing! I constantly used it on my last car, I'm afraid on Kamryukha, having read about a weak varnish.

As for the guarantee, it seems to me that you should not worry, nothing will happen to it. There would be some jamb at 10,000 km would get out. I do T.O. at the official It will cost 6800 - 7200r (for us), I don’t know for you. I understand that I overpay, but somehow it’s calmer or something.

Thanks! I looked at your photos, one difference, I have R3 equipment on the skin. TO 50,000 did not pass? it will come to me in 2,000, so I think to go to the officers or not? The car is under warranty until April 2012, the previous owner carefully went through all the MOT.

Congratulations on your purchase. Cool car. Mine is 3 years and 3 months old today. Birthday. 22.08.08
Never failed.
I polish before winter and before summer.
I also like to drive clean. After washing, it was as if the car had been changed.
I wish you good luck in the operation of Kamryuhi. Neither a nail nor a wand.

Doctor Wax polish does an excellent job of removing minor scratches. Minus - after contactless washing, scratches return. About Anti — scratches, what can I say? It is also washed off after a touchless wash. I haven’t been, but people say that professional polishing (and the price tag is 4000r) is not washed off, but it’s hard to believe.

I have the same beauty, one to one! Rubber is also washed, although many do not bother, but for me this is an indicator of the cleanliness of the car.

I love clean cars, I polish myself professionally. I took Kamryuhu with my hands, soon she will have to be completely polished, incl. abrasive, there are a lot of small scratches and halograms on the body (circular scratches from a light source), has not yet created its own page, we have cold and a lot of snow and there is no point in polishing yet.

Of course they will return, in two movements with a rag it is impossible to get rid of them completely.
There is a professional 3M polish, sold in stores with auto paint, but it is advisable to apply it with a machine, a skill is also needed there.
It has varying degrees of abrasiveness.
