hey i've just bought a 3yr 2nd hand latio for around 1-2mths ago.

 

i've been washing my car every weekend using the Armourall 'Wash and Wax' and then rinsing off with water. its a very simple routine.

 

hwever lately i've noticed some stains that just wouldnt come off no matter how hard i scrub. (my car colour is white) one of the stains include having yellow lines below my fuel tank cover.

 

1) how do i get rid of them?

 

2) are there any other care products i should use to better protect my car paint?

 

3) how do i get rid of stains in my interior, above the dashboard (the part where u put coupons on) there are a few stained spots i suspect the previous owner had stucked ornaments onto it.

 

thanks for any advice given.

Try going for car grooming to remove the stains. They would advise u on whether its removeable.

 

As for sticky residue, get goo gone form home fix or hardware stores.

 

where do i go for car grooming?

 

the residues are not sticky but there are visible stains especially under sunlight.

 

sorry complete noob here! [:p]

Wow! So serious. Me never wash my car for around 2 months already. The rain help me alot though. Just 2 days ago, I "washed" my car after a rain by using cloth to wipe the car. It works! My car looks clean again... lol....

There is one WS near my workplace and One commonwealth. They are dealers of Zymol products. See they glooming those expensive porsche and Lambo. their showroom is pack with Bentleys and Lambo as well.

 

Thus I think Zymol must be some good stuff and their service must be quite good. But price I don't know. The shop is called AutoInc.

The yellow line is the fuel stain.. Dats y important to rinse with water ard dat area as sometimes fuel might spill out.

 

The fuel stain already eaten into ur paint.. Very obvious on white..

Nt sure polish will remove or not.
