QUOTE(colinwong89 @ Dec 7 2013, 12:16 AM) Anyone know where to get Carpro's Iron X here in Malaysia other than UltimateShine? Carpro's product you can never buy off the shelf or internet in Msia. Quaza got his from Singapore. If you want, I still have a brand new bottle of 500ml. |

QUOTE(KrisMas @ Dec 23 2013, 05:24 PM) So....how easy was the application? Easier to apply with the block to use. I think the liquid is not as thick/concentrated compared to IS.Over here, it's NOT OK if you DON'T wash your car once a week.... Joking aside...yeah...you're fine washing once a week, provided that you do it properly. Did somebody tell you there's side effect of doing this? But IS is much glossier.... Do you think I can use the same material to apply IS? The block and the suede MF? After application, the whole MF harden like a piece of wood. |

QUOTE(windskill @ Dec 23 2013, 05:52 PM) Wash every week should be fine. Not sure about waxing every week. Recommend to wax only when water doesn't bead anymore. (Afraid that wax without claying first might cause some swirl marks). Question : Waxing without claying first will cause swirl marks?I am new on polishing too  You can either start doing it by hand or by machine (recommend using DA polishing tool instead of rotary polisher first). Ultimate Compound and Ultimate Polish are good products to work with, IMO.Common procedure: wash->clay->compound->polish->wax/sealant You may skip compound step if there are no severe scratches/swirl marks on the car paint. No la bro, claying is to clean. Waxing is to apply protectant. I don't think it will cause swirl, unless your car after wash is still not clean enough. |

Car detailing is all about how much you hate the insects, cicaks, birds and those cowardly creatures that like to leave their mark on your car, after you spend hours cleaning it.

QUOTE(Dwnking @ Dec 31 2013, 07:06 PM) guys, I'm new to this so need advice on should i get Tribos coating or is there any other alternatives? There are plenty of alternatives out there.Tribos is available in Mazda and Honda's, it seems like something the sales people is pushing hard for. But looking at the price, to me I would say a bit expensive. What more it is a new car... Anyway, I saw in garage sales there is a detailer doing RM1500 for new car. |

QUOTE(vx55 @ Jan 2 2014, 12:32 PM) Ah Tribos, I personally washed a new CX5 that has this coating on, plus other models like the 3 and 6. Actually the part to use ONLY water to wash your car, I have heard of other shop advising the same too.The result on Tribos coated Mazda cars have been generally poor. Most likely due to poor workmanship since I have seen swirls, dirt trails trapped under the coating. Also, the water behavior on the car is weird, just feels like a dying wax haha! What's really bad is the way customers are advised just to use water to wash the car, which is a sin to me! So no, I don't recommend them I wonder how the coating is like, that it only need water to clean... |
