For me, i do schedule myself to wax the car (my new inspira and my the other 2 years old "T" car) with the pasted wax (turtle wax) every 6 months. Within the 6 months, every 1 or 2 months i will do the "express wax" using the liquid sealant (PG is i am not mistaken), which is much easier than the pasted wax. Every weekend, i will wash my car with the wax and wash 2 in 1 soap (Kits). Total is less than RM100 a year.

Also, every 2 months, i will use the leather seat conditional and cleanser for my leather seat, cannt remember the brand.

notworthy.gif...good for you, unfortunately, i can't afford so much time to do the waxing myself...also, it is hard to do even waxing.....you need a machine to do it, one of those polish machine.....last time bought one before, but dunno how to use. Moment turn on the thing the wax splat on my face (maybe i put too much). I sold the damn thing. LOL.

Oh yeah...i dun trust sending ur new car to wash by those Bangala car wash....some of them use dirty clothes and scratch your car, last time kena before on my old Sephia...KNS....

haha, my 2 cars already enough to keep me busy. But seriously, i think the "Cars" washer in some shoping mall parking, they are doing good job with reasonable price for members. You can consider that.

Tenno: I'd assume yr car is black?? There is another black Inspira (RahXePhon) went for SG and had same watermarks after rain... he went back to Mr Choong for consultation, i think they will repair it for him... I THINK...

Also when I was there for my SG, another black Sonata XF had the same problem too... i recalled that Mr Choong told he to reschedule a repair work, for free....

I dont have any share in SG, but am a happy client (mine is RED) as i simply wash with water and soap... and now it has drop to a frequency of once or twice a week (used to wash every day) as I stay in a condo, damn mafan to carry two buckets of water....!!

Overall, the acidic nature of our rain does leave stains on the car... and it does eat into the outer layer of wax, teflon or silica... but the main difference is that only wax can be re-applied...

I went the SG route as i needed an easier way out, i am simply too lazy to wash, let alone wash, clay, polish and wax, and my parking area dont make this any easier either...

Just be aware that no product out there is a miracle product that keeps the car shiny all the time, just that some does it better with some negative trade off somewhere...

I'd still say SG was worth it for me...


RahXePhon: maybe you can share your discussion on watermark with Mr Choong and his plan of rectification???

NOOOOOOOO...!!!!

Did u know they recycle the water in their buckets??? And some times in some outlet, they even simply use those water to WIPE your car, instead of using soap and wash...??

I work in a mall, i have seen it happen...!!!

I thought wax and this PG (perma glass) sealant not supposed to mix? Once you do sealant, you don't have to wax. Very easy to wash car after that and no watermarks... Almost did SG but since it was a hassle to maintain (read their regular maintenance section in their website) , no difference from DIY PG at a must lower cost. If you got time, clay it first before PG to get super smooth finishing. After that you don't have to redo PG for at least another 6 months, just wash with normal car shampoo whenever u free... Bird shit of coz still need to remove asap...

I was lucky to drive off in dry weather... and straight back home into covered car park.... the shine is still there after every wash... and no water mark...

Only pain I have is that fingerprints are easily caught on the SG layer... need to keep wiping em off.... cry.gif cry.gif


As adviced by SG Mr Choong, you should TRY not to let rain hit your car immediately after SG, but if it does, wipe it off as soon as you can after rains stops (means DONT let them dry and stain the SG layer)... also, you should maintain (aka wash) your car with water or mild soap as often as you can...

For me, for the first month after SG, i wipe the car after each rain session it gets under.... but now only wash once / twice per week... (getting lazy ma...)...

Luckily, the no watermark and the shine still there....

All these are based on my personal experience, and pls dont take it as a recommendation or endorsement of SG....
