What's the current local price tag anyway? Oh...and there are other options.....    

Haha.. But OPT so expensive   

Depends on 'type' of washing you're looking for.. I'm looking into something fast and easy but able to clean thoroughly..

I already order the Makita. Much cheaper!

Uik? where you get it? U might want to share as most of us are looking into makita if the price cheaper than others..   

I get it from my friend who work in a maintainance company. U wan i can get for you but a bit exp. RM3.

Right now still in 'thinking' mode.. 

By the way Velvet Pad cuts alot man i feel that...    But i heart no doubt just to ask since the velvet pad cuts a lot can it cut orange peels?

I've seen a lot of detailers use velvet pad to level OP.. 1 of the master told me that using sand paper 'easier to control' i/o velvet pad.. So I just keep my VP first..

Hmm how to describe. Not as smooth as polishing the paint that's for sure. The velvet pad won't exactly glide smooth on the paint and the fact you need a steady and constantly moving the buffer and also evenly cover the entire panel. Mind you, the panel gets real hot after that. I'm on 1400rpm. For edge and corner, I switch to small 3" velvet pad and with the small pad, much more easier to control.

Aiyo....that's paint la. I'm referring to other types of coating....like 22ple, Sonax, ArtDeShine, DG Nano Glass, etc. can now buy locally and DIY already....

Thanks for the info... But IPA what kind of IPA we talking about? Is there any brand?  :hmm:

OPT fans here  Well, I'm not selective or particular brand alone. Just find something useful and use it often. Anyway, finally got the opportunity to polish and opti-coat a truck last week...



It has been one week since the application. Will give it a wash this weekend and looking forward to seeing the insane beading

Nope...doesn't work on tar. And yes, tar removers are normally 'oily' cuz they generally contain solvent/petroleum distillate with some 'oily' carrier to keep them from flashing/drying too fast.

Heavy citrus/d-Limonene based cleaner like OPC can remove tar too....albeit full strength and a tad bit slower...

This looks 

Goodwell is in Mahkota Square. They sell Chemical Guys and iGreenLover stuffs.....amongst others....expensive stuffs though....

GTechniq EXO, and many more...

Aquawax, Opti Seal all good right.

I can't comment on any waxes, I ain't a wax guy.

Sealants mostly sheet...that's why most don't have as nice beading as wax. But the better quality waxes have strong beading properties to the point that they're very effective in sheeting also. But nowadays the 'hybrids' are coming...sealants that contains wax...good and fast sheeter and bead quite nice also. Good example would be Megs UQWax paste. Even better example is Dodo Juce Supernatural Hybrid...damn tempted to get one but...haven't open most of my waxes/sealants for quite some tome already....

Want a suggestion....slap on any sealant (or AIO) then top it up with Sonax BSD...nice and strong beading and sheeting. I've tried DG501 then buff off residue with BSD....it's *almost* like having the best of both worlds.

Some of us mostly just drop by their HQ cuz, if lucky enough, can still get a little discount (and some times freebies) even if it's not officially on sale. Haven't gone in shopping mall for a while now, but i used to see them in Giant, Parksons and  ACE....not sure if these places still carries them.

Both sheets and beads differently. One is slightly more expensive. Both bottles can last you very long time.

Reload on dark colored cars, just pay a little more attention for streaking. Some fellas at Autogeek recommended to dilute, but I never try before.

Hei Bro, since you are looking for sealant... Put 1 more into the list, Iron Gloss from Dodo Juice.

I think Sonax Polymer Net Shield is also a sealant.

What are you looking for? What you're trying to achieve?
