So applying SG still need to wipe it often..... This is more like wax yourself and taking good care of it. But with SG, you need to waste rm700 first....
Now I know why my uncle's Harrier never send to SG and still look new even after 7 years.....
Dude... SG is a car finish detailing process.... they wash yr car, clay bar, polish to remove swirl marks, wash again, then coat it with SG silica treatment... entire process take arnd 6 hours... oh... and they had 2 guys working on my car all the time...
And yes, its like waxing it yourself, but how much BETTER can you do it with your hands and unprofessional application? Can you remove swirl marks or are you actually creating more when you wax it? How much does it cost 2-3 hours of your time DIY wax, not to mention if it takes you 6 hours?
If you do it yourself, the entire process is the same to get the same quality - wash, clar bar, polish, wash, then WAX... i know many DIY dont wash after polish before wax...
Also, irregardless of whatever treatment (SG, PPS, waxing), you will still need to take care of the car by wiping and cleaning the car... you think your uncle NEVER wash/wipe his car for 7 years and it still look new?? And i doubt he actually washes it, as usually the maid does it...
Thus waste or not worth in your books don't mean its not good or worth to others la.... so pls dont use the words "waste" to judge other people's decisions....
OT: my 1 hour "salary" is arnd RM100, so 6 hours of other people's time to work on my car is worth the RM700 i spent...
Peace...!!
