QUOTE(cricketboy @ Jun 30 2016, 11:11 AM) if not mistake, coating orig price is 3500 -35% discount Just sharing some of the info on coatings. The GYEON MOHS+ is a Japanese designed product (not UK). It's a good product, but is classified as a short term coating product (~24 months), thereafter you can opt to re-coat again. Price for the entire MOHS+ kit is ~GBP120 but as with coatings, the cost is really in the labour and not so much on the product.detail that cybermaster98 shared before this: 1) The coating is really good. After 7 months, the water beading effect off the windscreen and car body is still good. 2) Their car wash (using good shampoo) is cheap. Only RM60 per month for unlimited washes & vacuum. 3) Their car wash is really good. Their cleaning is top notch. No dirt smudges, etc. Even the car engine bay is cleaned. 4) Customer service from the owners is good. They are contactable on hp, whatsap and FB. Very professional and they respond fast to complaints 5) RV is not calculative. For the sake of customer satisfaction, they go the extra mile. 6) While your car is being washed, u can relax in the comfort of the aircon launge with comfortable sofa's, good reading materials, TV and drinks. 7) Open daily from 8.30am to 7pm. With coatings as well, the detailer skills is key in ensuring a lasting and quality finish (surface prep is key). I think RV has a good reputation out there. For the price, you can also consider CeramicPro 9H which is classified as a long term coat (~5 years). Many different options and products out there for coatings. Watch out for marketing gimmicks and go with reputable brands and applicators for the $$$'s. This post has been edited by GeekinE90: Jun 30 2016, 11:29 AM |

Those going for the group buy can also ask for the 4 yr warranty. RV is quite accommodating. But whats also important is the after care. That's where RV is a step above others. E.g their Auto Bath Club is only RM60 / mth for unlimited washes. So if ure staying nearby its good value. |

But due to our busy lifestyles, it's not feasible for many so coatings provide longer lasting resistance against contaminants and pollutants. Also avoid "waxing" too frequently as many shops and places don't use pure waxes and each time you "wax" a little bit of the paint's clearcoat gets cut since the "wax" shops use likely contains polishes and cutting compounds as well. Unlike the human skin which grows back each time it's exfoliated, car clearcoats never comes back once it's cut! You'll find the car get harder and harder to shine with swirls exposed once the wax washes off. Claying is great way to lift off contaminants safely, and wash with a good car shampoo very regularly. |

QUOTE(dororo @ Jun 29 2016, 11:38 PM) Do you think Honda Malaysia will cut usage of expensive high tensile steel to manufacture civic in Malaysia? Our plant here is a CKD plant, so it is mainly an assembly plant, not manufacturing. Only certain unimportant plastic bits, bumpers, interior finishing and some paint work is done by local contract manufacturing here. The main body structure is from Japan, Malaysia have no metal press plant for Honda. Our volume is too small to justify for such a metal press plant, that one needs huge amount of investment. |

Good info and makes sense. The BIW is expensive because it involves pressing of a few very large pieces of sheet metal and then using custom designed and made jigs (for that model BIW) with robots configured to weld the sheets together. The rest of the panels/doors etc are cheaper to make and just attach onto the BIW only in the assembly process. |

Our volume is too small to justify for such a metal press plant, that one needs huge amount of investment. so 1st batch will have more imported parts, before local parts build up to supply Melaka assembly plant.like what happened to Civic Type-R in UK, production unit below 2k used imported parts from Japan and USA.
