Any interior protectant which does not look greasy? Just want it to be a lil bit of shine. Currently looking at Meg's new car scent. Meg has a natural shine too, but the official store dont sell it on shopee. Armor all has a natural shine product too, but quick reddit search turns out Armor all kinda have bad rep in the states

I’m using this Meg Quick interior Detailer cleaning so far I’m okay with the smell and doesn’t leave any grease surface at all a . I have the same concern as you before I choose this so far I think I’m made a good choice choosing this one . Now lazada 7/7 sales after discount is like Rm41 and it come together with a decent Microfibre cloth as well .

Ya , any suggestion or product that will not leave the water dripping marks after applying ? As it’s quite frustrated especially after a heavy downpour end up with a car pillar which shown those water marks .. or else might just get someone to apply gloss black sticker over it 😅

Wuah....

Bling bling.

Many nice rides you have bro. wub.gif

Anyways, can't go wrong with Endurance... So far it's still one of the Top 3 in my books for now:

1. Soft 99 Black Black
2. Meg's Endurance Shine
3. ... actually I don't have a third product to confirm yet. brows.gif

I’m a little reserved about Norwex, looks too good to be true... some silver infused MF 😅

I use Fireball cloth for drying 🤣 but now using blower instead, still have the Fireball reduce splatters from the blower.
I think the Lazada store is cheaper, I’m planning to get the 6” polyshave disc. Clay by machine!
Try Reblack, I think will be more shiny 😆

Yea if this 3x dot method still fail , ill just leave it for my family members car and ill try on the reblack cool2.gif

Eih, Osren have a new drying towel similar looking design to the above.
But what we are curious is are there significant difference in performance for the branded MF? Is it a noticeable difference or about the same?

You mean this Osren Ultra ? Ultra

Its this a good buy a ? i been using the Mega towel for my drying i usually need 2 pcs which is completely dry in order to dry just 1 car. confused.gif

Ok, visited Ace Hardware at Starling just now...

So, I first stumbled across LED lights:

RM166... Cash and carry right away looks tempting vs getting it cheaper online. hmm.gif

user posted image

Not sure how bright it is though and whether good for detailing since it just says 20W LED on the box:

Was looking at the tire shine rack for ages and quite disappointed to see Turtlewax Wet Look not there:
user posted image

Was tempted to get that Meg's Reflect but RM68... Wah... Wallet says no.
user posted image

I did contemplate getting this Jet Black set for my ride though... RM150... Not sure if anyone has used it before? Or I might as well use the products I already have on hand and do an even better job? I do have Meg's Dark Wax too...
user posted image

Anyhow, seems this outlet doesn't have much stocks either. The last time I came still have the APC for tire cleaning but today's visit, seems it's mostly existing/unsold stocks.

So, end result after spending almost 30mins at their car care aisle??

But things like LED free standing like its always better to get it cash & carry as sometimes shipping is kinda problematic for fragile item as later would have come with the stand bended rclxub.gif

if you car is hydrophobic, then you should "dry"with water first... later finish off the left over droplets with MF or blower.
HV = high viscosity water based
LV = low viscosity water based
reblack = mine is gel type lah
wah got gold MF leh... when was this?
if you dont buy then u dont know how will it be like.... BUY BUY BUY rclxm9.gif

Yea bro, Had the car wash the 3rd time since applied Osren coat before now waiting the coat to peel off by itself then only replace with TW Seal and Shine

Thanks for the kind words.

Not easy to keep white car looking pristine.

Anyways, last night after the rain continue to apply Meg's Endurance on the rest of my family's rides.

I know it works well but the minute it goes under heavy downpour, the coat usually fades away pretty quickly.

I might reserve judgement until I get my hands on either Osren's Tire Shine HV or the Turtlewax Wet Spray...

Ya but the soul red is just another level of glossiness to it ❤️.

PS: Just an update from my discussion with Osren's rep.

The Ultra towel best price is still the RM68 as per their Shopee page, as it is already discounted from RM7X too.

Sorry guys. Couldn't get a better rate. sweat.gif

Best to snap up on their Shopee page then.

Yes, clay bar has several grade. But most clay bar will eventually cause light marring which require polish for the mirror shine.
My hood is fitted on my car  laugh.gif wife will chop me into pieces if I have a spare hood around for testing. Technically if your washing is perfect... the drying towel never gets dirty? biggrin.gif But that's not my case so I wash every time after drying my car.

Side note, bro you need to learn how to multi quote. Will be easier to follow your posts.

Guys , it seem forummer here usually purchase thru Shopee right ? Does the coin really makes a different ?

For me personally I always shop in lazada instead coz I find the product price might be slightly cheaper than Shopee as Shopee usually need to add the shipping fees after then. Eventho I always shop at lazada but I didn’t apply the Citi one coz i always think Citi rewards point is kinda useless .. or I should said hard to collect.

Mind to share some experiences here ?
