hmm thx man let me check

this is a good place to check : autodetailer

Really? what's the advantages of protective film over coating?

to me,
protective film felt more 'tangible' than coating, the thickness alone already tell you something.
just scare that if the adhesive used is low quality and failed after a few year under our hot climate, what will it do to the clear coat of the car when wanna remove it.

Ya, removing is the scary part, A real world case here

Managed to get Meguiar's cleaner Wax for cheap in the weekend from Tesco Egate Penang.
Seems to be a deal at RM63.
Normally its RM80++

Thanks for de tip.. will look see tis week end..

too bad i bought at full price one year ago but i am happy for that price i paid as it did what it supposed to do

gonna try mothers AIO after i finished this meg cleaner wax

Yup if you need to stock up ...can buy to keep.
So you used this Cleaner Wax before?
Hows the verdict? Does it last long? the shine I mean.
Before using this wax...what are the steps you took?
You mean the mother's carnauba cleaner wax? I saw that too was tempted to buy cos was way cheaper but I read
ppl in this forum saying carnauba doesn't last long in our Malaysian weather.

Went look/see at local tesco shop..

Was labelled 67.04.. luckily it was labelled wrong.. actual price was 63.04..

what are options for new car paint protection?

depends on your wallet size.

from order of cheapest to most expensive, there is wax, sealant, coating, clear bra.

so the good old waxing & polishing still the way to go?

If u wax frequently not really need polishing too often, normally my routine is wax ultimate liquiq wax every 3 month, then maintain with ultimate spray wax every 2 week , just spray and wipe off only (ultimate line really damn easy apply and wipe, save alot time and elbow power, not to mention ultimate wax really tahan).

For polishing i will do it every maybe 2 year to remove swril mark , u know la how careful u wash ur car there will be swirl mark , about polishing u really need find good shop to do it, else it will screw up ur whole car paint



Now i gonna try out the fusso soft99 12 month coat, it is a paste wax, not as easy as liquiq wax to apply , very hard to buff off, need elbow power , hope this fusso is good so i no need rewax every 3 month

actually i would like to ask sifu here , what drying cloth sifu recommend?

i have 2nd hand soft99 fusso coat to sell for rm45 if u wan...jz use 1 time..the wax is gud just that i dunhv elbow power to apply it...so now using carnauba wax which not durable but easier to buff off...

Previously i bought two microfibre clothes from tesco egate promo area...rm10(mistaken pricing i guess cos few days later i wnet to purchase was rm16, still cheap though) its the size of a hand towel. Ultra plush and with these two clothes i can wipe my entire car dry...city....without wringing the clothes.
