How long will it take?

Kailong wrote:what's the purpose for this insulation?

Hello Kailong, this insulation is supposedly to experience better coldness of the aircon.

Depends on whether you driving EX or SX:
Eg. if you driving SX and have to set Fan speed 2 and Temperature @ 22 degrees celsius to enjoy the aircon coldness. After insulation you might only need to set Fan speed 1 and Temperature @ 24 degrees celsius to have the same coldness.

I have already insulated the pipe but don't really feel the change so maybe there is something wrong and may have to do a rework or patch up. I need guru Andikong to maybe help me assess where it is wrong.

I'll suspecting that CnC did not top up the gas...rather than a insulating problem...but I could be wrong too.

Hey bro,

after i decided to do the insulation i have tried to monitor the a/c...for me i need to swicth to 20 degrees den feel the cold.and when switch on need fan 2.den later switch to fan 1. when i switch to 22 ~ 23...piang eh... headache man...

ace wrote:Ever seen icing appears on people's face when they are at an extremely cold place....and they are shaking all over?

That's the same with the aircon piping...it is breaking out in cold sweat due to extreme cold.

Or look at it in another way, sun heat water, water evaporate and become cloud, rise higher and higher into the atmosphere....high attitude is cold....turn into rain and falls back to earth....

So yeah, condensation is normal.

joepele,

why not hold 1 DIY : removal of C&C logo at the same time as the a/c insulation?
haha...cover cost for the polish and can charge labour...and imparting if knowledge...

aural wrote:Dun need to hold one DIY just for that. Just if you happen to have the autoglym or zippo bring along. Think these 2 are tested and proved to work.

Hey all bros there, please use Zippo or Ronsonol (the original lighter fluid by Ronson Company).
Its the safest chemical around and it won't stain on any surface when dry. i have been using it for more than 40 years since the day when computer don't even exist. I use it to remove sticky stuff and pasted art-works. I can remove you Forte or Cerato logo in less than ONE min without any stain or residue on you paint surface. Just clean off with a piece of clean dry cloth. Believe me I have done it with bro gazoo
and Fortec the first five Forte car who did the air-con insulations in early March 2009.

If worse come to worse, share share loh.
Or can buddy system.
Meaning 2 person do 1 car first. One person cut and the other wrap. Then subsequently do the other car. Should be pretty fast.
