QUOTE(miuk @ Aug 3 2011, 11:02 AM) That's the price the guy quoted me. Since there's no official price list and it all depends on the various bosses at the shop, your experience might vary. Considering Waja continental CC5 already costs around 180, i would think 300+ for 16" would be damn expensive Got Michellin XM2 yet?

You can order it online if the stores don't carry the item or out of stock..at times they might have promo & it's cheaper than buying from the shops...google for the local meguiar's website to order as overseas don't send or sell to Malaysia..

QUOTE(Matrix @ Aug 3 2011, 08:45 AM) Market price how much ar? Just curious....scared side mirror kena langgar...last time kena before with old car....  .. Added on August 3, 2011, 8:55 amYeah, if you ask me to wash EVERYDAY....die mang....now i wash most once a week, last week no time to wash, so becomes twice a week, must wash this weekend....somemore have to wash wax 2 cars...if take turn, die mang, every week also have to wash/wax car!!!!! But i got sheltered parking for 1 car, so not so bad....btw, just to share, i use Turtle quick wax every week, when i wash the car .. (except if i do major waxing)....pretty good. Can easily wash off stains and dirt after 1 or 2 weeks. Good for people like me who wants to wash own car, but not enough time....really hate sending my car to car wash...blardy bangla all do lousy job...worst scratch your car.. Without Motor for folding is RM 480 and u need to buy cover saperately cost RM 245. This is mitsubishi motor parts pricing. Proton same or not? Cheaper? I dunno lo. Btw got motor for folding is RM 100 extra only hahhaa:) but cover sure is a seperated item.

But you certainly need to mix water with it, something like half a pail. Can use for weekly wash. You can also use ONR for claying. Sorry typo erro...... should be RM 300+ for the carpet, not RM 300K.

So basically is like "mopping" the car lah.....mix like those goodmaid mopping detergent and no need to rinse it later  Good good me likes, easy to wash. Just need to get tonnes of MF cloth. In that case if my car is freaking dirty (my old wira 2months nvr wash liao), Should I give the car a shower rinse first before I use ONR? then OPC is for cleaning tough stains/grime/tar?

Apart from convenience (especially so if you live in a place where tap is not available), it also takes lesser time. You need two pails of water. One to put the ONR while the other to clean the cloth so that there is no dirt particle on the cloth to cause undesirable mark due to the wiping. I would say if your car is camouflaged with dirt and dust, then the shower rinse should be done to prevent from the undesirable mark due to wiping.
