QUOTE(hihihehe @ Jun 15 2016, 11:00 AM) that's jsut my rough estimation but i read that Sierra Glow is quite cheap and yet quality Gtechiq C1, Gzox Real Glass and Sierra Glow Blue Flame can be done in 2k range...if need to plus inner or total protecr then need 2.5k range (Sierra Glow no inner).......any comment?  Gtechiq Crystal Serum 7 yrs CS Black TSP (Total In & Out) will be 4k range... This post has been edited by chuah_ph: Jun 15 2016, 02:32 PM |

QUOTE(hihihehe @ Jun 16 2016, 11:09 AM) thats the price i read outside the thread. and i only concern about exterior so no coating in interior is fine for me If you dont mind on long warranty on body paint color and superhydrophobic (repel water) then 1k or below series should be fine. It is still better then if w/o any coating at all...as i have no access to was my car by my own, i need to send to car wash but not sure if this will affecting the coating |

QUOTE(hihihehe @ Jun 16 2016, 11:25 AM) fair enough Need to check w/ your coating, some can use any car shampoo as long as not too strong...but some need to be selected shampoo....normally we also dunno wt shampoo use by car wash ahhaah!!as there will be different method in washing the car after coating, do i have to worry anything when i send it to outside car wash?? Try check how was the coating density, layers, hardness etc which determine how strong it can sustain on ur body paint. |

QUOTE(windskill @ Jun 16 2016, 11:32 AM) Just make sure you don't send to roadside car wash that uses improper washing method (eg: dirty cloth to wipe entire car) and harsh chemical such as detergent. Then, you should be fine. Agreed. To be safe, send back to the shop where you do the coating. Usually car wash should be cost around RM15 I guess? Sometimes, it is safer to send back to same shop to avoid warranty being voided.  |

QUOTE(hihihehe @ Jun 16 2016, 11:36 AM) that's the thing lol Mostly coating shop do have car wash as they need to fully wash and clean the car prior to coating but they try limit to their own coating customer unless really no car hahaah!! Maybe different price for own coating or others customers..didn't know coating shop got provide car wash that's make it easier then I learn from Gtechiq coating shop that most coating shop tends to make it super glossy by removing the top lacquer layer which look like "wave" but this is not that good as the more you remove then the more glossy but the lesser protection on the original paint. If wanna remain or protect more original body paint then should not remove much on the top lacquer layer but again you will loss the extremely glossy view......give and take depend on customer preferences... Maybe others can comment on this... This post has been edited by chuah_ph: Jun 16 2016, 11:43 AM |

QUOTE(windskill @ Jun 16 2016, 11:44 AM) I think you are talking about removing orange peel. I would say they should gauge the paint thickness first before decide to remove orange peel. yes orange peel... I might use the wrong lacquer naming hha.. ya mostly coating shop do have the meter to measure the thickness if they wish to remove it for better glossy...This post has been edited by chuah_ph: Jun 16 2016, 11:47 AM |
