Hey guys, I’m getting a new Ioniq and the SA offered to do some sort of coating which has 5 years warranty. She offered 1.3k for this.

Would anyone know what type of coating is this actually? From my conversation it’s actually from outside vendor not from Hyundai itself. For some reason I’m not sure if it would actully hold the shine for 5 years

What's the cheapest quick detailer available on the market?

does anyone know sensha fine crystal is sealant or wax?

Any recommended product to clean matte black wheels?

So far i just use water. Doesnt seem to clean well, the black looks a little brownish now. Is regular car shampoo alright?

If possible, I also wanna give it a bit of shine. Some say it's ok to just apply some tyre shine on it, but some say it's gonna peel off the paint.

Any suggestions?

Sorry for the blur pic.

When i bought these Taiwan rims, it was already black. So I guess it's genuine coat?
Tq!

Hey brothers,

Just asking a newbie question. I have read through many posting but unable to find the advice.

For Ceramic Coating
1. Any specific car shampoo that specialized for maintenance or just normal PH Balance shampoo?
2. Can you still use QD like the MG's Last Touch
3. What about Whell brightener on Coated Rim?

I dont think its right to say that u can polish after coating application unless u want to remove the coating. Polishing contains abrasives that will shave the coating.

Hi All,

May i know what is different between Waxing vs Ceramic Pro Coating vs Diamondbrite Coating?

Any professional can advise on it?

Hi guys

Just wanna ask is it necessary to send a brand new car immediately for detailing or wait until 2-3 months? Because I heard that sometimes dealer did a poor job at "touching up" all the factories defect (if any) to make it look brand new.

Also I'm wondering how much does full car detailing usually cost

Can I just get any brush from the toilet cleaning department to clean the rims and tyres?

anyone using this product? no dust?
contain wax like hd speed?
Meguiars

Hello to all here, Need some expert advise on my car paint.

Refer to the picture , is this called paint oxidation? And are those polish/compound detailing able to fix this?

Is it possible to use a Foam Lance without the waterjet pressure?

The car brought by 1 year ago , is a second hand car.

No polish or detailing job done by me, only regular clean.

The car claimed as no repaint job done before.

The problem only on my upper C pillar.

If clear coat failure, any workshop can respray the clear coat only? I don't want to brush off all my paint, coz is a lexus is250, damn heart pain.

ok sifu-sifu sekalian, first time wanna try car detailing. Please do advise if this is the correct steps and right products/tools to use:

1) Wash
    - Tools = mitt, bucket with grit guard, snow foam lance(optional)
    - product = Osren buble&wax/Osren Nano wash/Meguiars gold class

2) Clean
    - Tools&product = Claybar with Meguiars Last Touch/ONR as lube

3) Polish
    - Tool = DeWALT DWP849X/Osren DAP15/Porter-Cable? - which one better?
    - Products = Meguiars Ultimate compound/Meg Ultimate Polish
   
4) Wax
    - Tools = DA Polisher/Hand applicator
    - Products = Meguiars Ultimate paste/liquid Wax/Fusso coat 12month

5) Maintain
    - wash every week
    - wax every 3months? then apply SiO2 sealant - Carpro/Feynlab

Correct?

Generally u have the right idea, but as g88 say, there can be variations for every detailer depending on what they are trying to achieve. I added some comments to your post for additional reference.

With regards to your choice of polishing machine, I suggest starting with Osren DAP8 if u have no experience in this area. Dewalt is rotary and maybe not advisable for newbies, Osren DAP15 is heavier and also more aggressive cut (also maybe not so advisable for newbies), and Porter Cable runs on US 120V current means u have to carry a heavy transformer around.

Additionally, sealant is generally more durable than wax, so it is generally suggested that sealant should be the base layer if u want to apply wax as second layer.

Also, u should decide if u want to go for Meguiars Ultimate Wax, Fusso coat, or Carpro or Feynlab. Among these 4, Fusso seems to have the longest durability, and for some ppl it is not recommended to apply anything on top of Fusso else u bury Fusso under another protection layer and not maximizing Fusso protection.

Again, it is all about what u're trying to achieve.

Thank you for the advise.
Another thing.. is shinemate ex603 good? its cheaper than osren i think.
