IMHO it silly to protect normal cheap paint with such expensive "coatings". If my car is using very expensive paintjobs, then yes it is justifiable. But if my car is just a factory default paintjob, it looks ridiculous to send it for such coating treatments. Might as well just send for new coat of paint every few years.

QUOTE(rcracer @ Mar 12 2013, 07:28 AM) For me hard coatings means even watermarks shouldn't form, if it's hard to remove it means the water mark has done deep into the coating, and to remove it you have to remove even more coating which defeats its purpose. Agreed. Its like now instead of having to care/worry about the car paint, I need to worry/care about that coating. WTF right?

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

QUOTE(CoffeeDude @ Mar 15 2013, 11:19 AM) 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  I rather repaint my car every few years. Why I must protect the thing that is suppose to protect my car paint which is supposed to protect my car? It's like hiring a bodyguard to protect your house, but you must protect your bodyguard so he can protect your house. weird LOL
