Just want to share as b4 this I also wondering should I wax or coat or no need at all.

coating is like they take your years of waxing $ 1st, and give warranty to you (all include)

wax is like you need to manually every 3 months go waxing, this I worry what if on every waxing, they add more scratch to the surface?

and I did think of don't care at all, once on 5th years, as it damage, bring to repaint!

all costing almost the same, coat might be 2k for 5 years, wax each wax 100+(for every 1 year 4 times, 20 times for 5 years) it also ring to a total of 2k plus. For repaint, it also around 2k plus....

So end up. I choose coat as it is easy to maint. after coat, just bring for normal hand wash or simple DIY hand wash with microfiber cloth.

somemore they have warranty... just bring back to touch up if got minor scratch.... all free(and some chargeable depends on the coating that you choose)

@Jeffreynsx

Protect to certain extend. nothing is 100% protected!!! I use diamond to scratch your car... see what coat will last that?!!! ahhaha.
No need diamond also can get scratch d... like kak kiki hentam your car. will get scratch for sure

I believe jeff from penang? I can share the coating finding if you are interested. But nothing is perfect. what if the coat shop close shop? for sure there will be no more warranty if the shop is close

so far I see the most shinning coating is gdox... but not cheap man, I think it will cost 3k to 5k for the most berkelip kelip coat!!!

this got its disadvantages also. what if minor accident, they cannot repaint due to too thickness of coat. they need to remove all coat and repaint. for sure this will add extra $ to paint and recoat.

y spend so much on coat? 5k to 7k can get your car repaint by 3 times already

something to share... if you notice carefully you can see paint defect on city!!! they will circle it with some round mark!!!. I found out 3 on my bonnet!!!

the coat shop told me, Honda local assemble car have these paint defect issue. those imported tak dak...

hmmm, repaint every 5 years!! Or move to new place
Kidding. try to find those 12H hardness coating. but if those kid go scratch your car with metal, use stone to scratch... I don't think any coat will help on that. Maybe you can do some research on this. To me 5k to 7k coat is way too expensive

antoehr option... install recording camera. once your car get scratch... camera will start recording... from here, you bring this info and make a police report

police wont accept this report also la. anything below $500 damage... cannot claim insurance

you can go for 12H coating, but no guarantee on will not scratch at all. 12H will be around rm2500 for city

maybe you can ask the coat ppl, 12H mean can protect what lvl of attack?

9H demo. I wonder to what extend can 12H protect?

good tint and lock can cost you another 2k

I didn add any additional lock. Quite safe on my parking at home and office

So hard sell?

Are you that guy that working in Airasia?? We chat b4?

Seems like they add a lot of thing, once you coat your car, can tell them not to wash window, not to wash engine etc.

Don't fight pls....
