Makita.....makita....makita....

Jaylim, for the wax not to touch those black plastic area, correct way to do it is mask that area with masking tape before you start to do waxing or polishing job....

To have good result in your detailing job, tools and skills comes hand in hand. Without skill good tools for you also will ruin the car's paint.

For tools it's more like an investment, the best you can get is the Makita 9227C which is priced close to MYR1,000, best price if bulk also MYR 900+ Another one is the DeWalt DWP894X but very seldom got people use here (but overseas a lot of them go towards DeWalt) most of the Hands On detailing class I attended also using Makita. You will also need a bolt on adapter for the makita on different pads because IINM the Makita thread got 2 types 16mm and 19mm. Then comes the different types of pads to use for waxing and polishing there are also finishing pads.

For the average users, having a makita some would feel like it's overkill but depends la...if for the occasional owner detailing then a Orbiter will be suffice to do the job...no mater you using Rotary or Orbiter, make sure the pads are clean before you start. If the pads not clean then your car will be www.hailat.com.my

Look at this Iswara. Solid green paint...lost shine and reflection totally. On the windscreen is the pads and stuff used.
