So I got myself a bottle of Turtle Wax Zip wax. It's a wash+wax solution. Instructions ask me to use warm water but if I use cold water, what would happen?

QUOTE(KrisMas @ Dec 4 2015, 10:08 AM) Haven't had one for quite a while now....well...not that I'm aware of Anyway. Maybe you can call for one. I can try to get Osren, Sonax, Dodo Juice, IGreen, or some other reps to come over if you want.... as sifu mywifecar mentioned, not against rule, and listing on the first page can reduce a lot of potential repeated questions by pointing newcomers to the first page Hrrrmm....comes to think of it....maybe I can list down links to online shops that sells them in the 1st page....the authorised ones, of course. Wonder whether that would be against the forum rules.... |

For claying process, can we use Meguiar's Gold Class™ Car Wash Shampoo & Conditioner + water as lubricant?
Or must we use Meguair's Quik Detailer? |

QUOTE(radiancephil @ Dec 3 2015, 01:49 PM) Bro radiancephil, got emailed Osren regarding this towel, this is their reply;MF-B-11 Microfiber Towel 60 x 180cm – RM37.10 /pc Affordable for a humongous MF towel. Probably will get 1. Also enquire on the waffle towel from Osren; MF-C-10 M/F Waffle Towel (Yellow) 40 x 60cm – RM50.90 / packet (2pcs) Seems more cost saving than Cobra. 1 pcs Cobra cost 2 or in this case 3 pcs same purpose thing. |

Have yet to try it but I wonder if the "wax" is enough to make my car shiny? loli always used cold water, and yes nothing extraordinary happens. no issue with cold water. Guess if I wanna make my car have that kind of polished look, I gotta get some proper wax I guess Any suggestions? |

QUOTE(windskill @ Dec 11 2015, 01:59 PM) Thanks.Btw, Meguiar Quick Wax: http://www.lazada.com.my/meguiars-g17516-u...ax-1445751.html Or Meguiar Black Wax? http://www.lazada.com.my/meguiars-g6207-bl...wax-944152.html My assumption is that the Quick Wax will not last as long as the "proper" black wax? And probably won't look as good as proper wax? |

I need some help regarding car wax. I just finished my entry level Turtle Wax and looking for something better.
Meguiars NXT 2.0 seem like a good choice apart from the price. I prefer something not too pricey. Edit: Sonax BSD seem like a famous product here. Can I use it as a substitute for wax or on top of wax? This post has been edited by blacktubi: Dec 13 2015, 06:18 PM |

Btw, wax should be able to repel/resist dust right? |
