imho if you can maintain weekly wash just after the coating (how long was it since your last coating? ) if within a few weeks i'd say go with wash and wax
i just done it on last 2 week~

Ideally, a good practice is to wipe/clean them with a damp cloth as often as you wash the car and apply some leather dressing monthly or bi-monthly. Unfortunately, time is often not on our side and myself, I can only afford the extra time to do that maybe once a month (cleaning) and dressing between 3 ~ 4 months. My waja seats are still in good condition after 5 years. Based on the few 'proper' coatings that I've tried, any shampoo would do (as long as they're from a reliable brand la). But best is to get something strong but without much wax/sealant/glossifier/etc. From the option you stated, I'd say either Gold Class or NXT.
ok~thx for ur info~i think i will go for Gold Class

i tried to search online for any reviews but got nothing however the last time i brought my car over to a car detailing centre for a 4 layer polish, this was the wax they used. another car detailing centre was also offering this coating wax as opposed to Meguires. Apparently, according to them this SGCB has a more smooth finish compared to Meguires with the rest equals.
also, since i am now trying to wax my car at least once fortnightly i need some real advice as opposed to youtube.com videos. this is my first time doing it so i don't want to screw it up.
if according to the video, waxing is just as simplyeas applying the wax (paste form), wait until a white layer appears and then just wipe it off with a clean micro fiber cloth (just minimal strength required). my question is this, is this all there is to it?

youtube videos and information within the v1/v2 and this very v3 thread will suffice.
and yes if you mean JUST the waxing step. however preparation is equally, if not even more important than the waxing step itself.

I came across SGCB a few weeks ago while looking up at some coatings.
Somebody tried their glass coatings and made some youtube videos. Have a look.
Not too bad from what I see. No idea on their wax.

For waxing....yes. That's all there is to it. Lightly apply the wax sparingly (very thin), leave for a little while and the white leftover residue will appear then just gently wipe them off. The problem would normally come when people tend to use more product thinking that 'the more the better'. That's not the case here. If you use more product and apply it on thick, you'd get all sort of problem when you're trying to buff it off.
Don't know much about SGCB products. I've also just heard of it a few months ago. It's from Taiwan and their product line is *curiously* quite similar to Meguiars....with a few addition of coatings...
So how much is the SGCB Crystallization coating then and what size does it come in?
Cuz for around RM300 range there's Dodo Juice Supernatural Infinity Sealant, Choose Nanotech DLS 9H, Optimum Opti Coat 2.0 and some other Japanese coatings that you can find at Autobacs.
ps. Sorry if I sound a bit pessimistic. I've already tried a few coatings and only *very* few can withstand our harsh weather...or maybe I just wasn't lucky enough to find one that can. If I can get a sample of this and test it out then that's something....but at RM300/set...

Are they available locally in KL/PJ? I'm actually considering to purchase them. I only came across Meguairs' version M188 and they are quite pricey.
Anyway, don't know which SGCB coating was used in the video. But looking at their products, there are 3 of them. First one is RM 119 for 500ml and the other 2 is RM 79. No idea on how much ML is given but bottle looks big?
Those that you show above are not 'coating' per se. They're basically sealants and waxes. The word sealant/wax have been lost in translation when they're trying to figure out what those Chinese characters represent in English....the proper work should be 'protection'.

Ah ok. The last 2 I suspect are mere sealants / waxes but the first one may be a coating.

If you mean the coatings that I mentioned previously, yes they are.
btw after some study of dodo juice supernatural infinity sealant, the application seems like very tedious one lol. and i guess it's hard to do it also, no garage LOL, no good place to shelter also =( sadz.
