Ok... Been lurking around car care and detailing forum for a while. Am not new to detailing but I've never commented here. Most of my comments were on autoworld which I think now is inactive.

Anyway, long story short, got a new car recently - pearl white. Yes, it is pretty hard to maintain as I've owned a pearl white before with the same brand.

Previously did pps which am not too amaze. Just that the 'investment' were of acceptable level for me that time (I think it was rm700+) but when I asked for a quote now, it's rm1200+!

Anyway, didn't want to spend that sort of money, thus invested in the new Meguiars coating m18802. Had some free time last weekend and did a complete coating on the new car.

Tried to keep the car from rain but only manage to do it for 2 days sad.gif

Anyhow, I only wiped dry the car (with fresh shower of water) after the rain and after 5 days, I must say I'm pretty impress with the Meguiars coating! Still looked like it's fresh coating and dust hardly stick to it. Of course am comparing with previous 'coating' like M16, DG 105, even cleaner wax like Mother's etc.

Well, might be too early to say but am quite satisfied so far...

Will update from time to time.

Thanks for the share. Keep us updated on the durability & performance. I wasn't that impressed with M188 (well...comparing with the other coatings that I've tried) but I might had erred on the applications....

Oh...just my personal opinion...if the price you got is anything like the one on ebay linked by linkin182, I think you can get better coatings.... sweat.gif  sweat.gif

Hi bro,

Yeah, got it from a forumer here. Got better coating within that particular price range? Must have missed it. Anyway, been using meguire's for quite a while. Thus, was looking into their coating. Appreciate if you could share some recommendable coatings.

My experience with 22ple & IGL...it's pointless to top up (which you don't really need to) with anything other then their own 'propriety' topper...one wash then it's gone. Unless you're going for the 'deep wax' look.....

I concur with this as I read a few pros advise not to top up with wax or other lsd.

Bro, can share your findings on 22ple? Where did you buy it? Also, the last time you tried m188, was it the Asian version which is m18802?
