Have you seen watermarks on a windshield?
A windshield is made from glass. Real glass.

If watermarks can form on real glass which is very hard, it'll have no problem to form on a chemical glass coating.

I shall not say how the detailer removes the watermark from the coating coz I don't know

yes but for glass i know it's a fact it's a deposit only, you can use as much strength as you like to remove it the glass doesn't thin

but the coating i doubt it

Without coat: you worry about paint.
With coat: you worry about coat, no more worry about paint. It is easier to re-coat than re-paint.

in summary it is still something to worry about, and it requires special technique to maintain (qualify for warranty)
this coating thing would have been more interesting if it did not require so much hassle to maintain

I just wonder.

Let's say you do the paint coating but lazy to do the maintenance.

Instead of weekly washing the car, you send it to roadside car wash once a month.

After a while swirl marks and watermarks forms on the coating.

Will the detailer fix the problems back for you for free?

How serious the water work would be? Any photos ?

i've considered applying my car with sierraglow but it seems like it is tedious as well. i have to pay a big sum of money and still have to take proper maintenance of the coating.

also, lets say things are not as good. maybe we accidently scratches the bumper or kena kiss behind. if i go for touchup, i believe the paint will somehow distorted due to the fact that the peeled off paint are much much more thinner than other intact paint with sierraglow.
what about stone chips that hit your front bonnet every now and then?

while i can remove wax easily, i believe its not so with sg and its very expensive stuff to remove lol.

not to mention the price has just rose up 25% from RM600 (last year) to RM750 (this year). this makes the value drop further, we still have to care about the maintenance, and it may be tedious somehow later.

worthy? think again

Hi imperialrealcs, Our price is base on the age and car model size. Our price in the market is the cheapest for Silica Glass coating which is much superior that any other. Our technology is at least 5 years advance than any other Silica Glass coating in the market and more over Glass coating is the top of the range for Paint Protection Sealant. Q

Can you explain Which other coat are you talking about? can you be explicit? Its easy to say i am the best but a one eyed man in the land of the blind is king

ya and that still didnt answer my other concern regarding the maintenance etc. i was considering at rm600 until i asked and i got rm750 then i ditch the idea completely off due to the trouble that i would actually have after applying.
the price value drop

Like ini have mentioned earlier, from 1st Elantra was done coating when it was launch the price is not RM600. You can do research at Elantra club and confirm the rate. It is fair for you to self determine the price or you may be one of competitions that would like to kick up a story in the forum. Thank you.

There will be no major concern in maintaining. Normal washing to keep your car clean. We educate our customer to use clay bar to maintain their car, unlike does other car wash or detailing shop ever advise customer to use clay bar? Because if you a problem you will return and will charge you for the service.

With Internet we can do research of anything. Our product description is in our website. Thank you.

thanks for not answering the question.

I only stress on what our product is about and not so dump to criticism others in the open nor our policy of practising in our profession.

Can't help but to comment.

How does one determine that a "technology" is at least 5 years more advanced than its competition? lol

then dont put claims as such. because you are decieving people!

The current formula is up graded till today is about 5 years and other are still using the same formula 5 years ago till now. As we are periodically up dated by our inventor from Japan. Nothing deceiving but our formula structure as stated in our website to consumer info.

Seems like your professional practice is to evade questions by giving vague answers

Let's see .....

A buyer pays RM750 for a Sierraglow coating.
He must maintain the coating by washing, claying and drying the car.
I estimate this maintenance will easily take 2-3 hours to do.
And he can't send it roadside RM10 car wash coz they don't exactly do claying right?

Every week need to spend 2-3 hours to wash, clay and dry the car

or else pay more $$$$ to send back to Sierraglow
