Dear all,

My car will arrive soon, i wonder if it is fine for me to wax it say within 1 week?

Apart from the engine break-in rule [don't need another debate ], are there any general things that i do / refrain from doing?

Thank you.

hey amad, what kind of advice is this? sekolah mana u keluar?

thanks yngwie and chrymnd.
I am planning to wax my car after my first car wash. The thing is, i read something on the web which discourage waxing of new car. lol...i guess i'll just wax la. thanks..i'll avoid polish for now.

Anw, if anyone wish to add any info, pls do ya. will really appreciate it.

thanks man

about the car i'm getting, i think it's neither hotcake nor already in stock. I was told by the sales personnel that my car is more of cold storage in the sense that demand and production is low though I doubt his statement. My car is the satria neo lite. Been waiting for roughly a month + and the car will arrive in matter of weeks. Haha, i'm not that rich to go for branded goods...in fact, i purchased turtle wax car wash + the super shell wax.

From the reply here, it seems that polish is to be avoided. I guess, it'll be better for me to drive the car for say 1 or 2 weeks, then start waxing.

Just like engine break in, some say dont rev above 3k rpm before the first service whereas some believe that the engine should be trashed since day 1. LOL....

lol..turtle wax not good? it appears that they have good reviews on the net. plus they are not entirely cheap either. haha...
eh, car already out of factory more than 90 days? then why the hell i don't get my car now. grr..

thanks for the link. it is really helpful.
Again, there is a discussion in that link which clearly said that there is 2 school of thoughts here. LOL this is like the differing 'engine-break in school of thought'. haha
