ya if u dunno how to operate better dun.. the link i sent u that kenneth also test out with the used hood before he start using the machine on real cars.

Yeah la... car also need to take care like women have to take care of the face one (I'm a woman)

The NXT Generation Spray Wax is RM 60 at Eneos, non abrasive to new paint and suitable for all colours, but hard to buff off. Wouldn't exactly recommend it if you're looking for a wax Soft99 Meta Clean liquid wax does a better job and is cheaper (<RM 25, RM 19.90 cheapest)- the shine is excellent, the feel is smooth and beads water excellently Plus easy to buff also. Good for any type of paints.

ur car blink blink like ur face wah.. u female i tot u male ur polish and wax not tedious meh?

Tedious ah Just that lucky got my fiance la... I apply the wax, then after 5-10 minutes he buff off for me... hehe.

Mind posting one little pic please? Maybe a reflection shot of the bonnet or the door...

i saw soft 99 meta cleaner at the giant for 19.90

is it any good?
does it gives out those swirl marks? and is it abrasive?

I tried NXT on my black car. Dun look glossy at all. For black cars I heard Carnauba wax are the best. Megs got 3 types rite? Cleaner wax, NXT and Carnauba. Sealant out of the picture la

I've recommended Soft99 Meta Clean liquid wax for the past few pages already... it's non abrasive and does not cause swirl marks unless you buff it off with normal cloth That's why should always buff off with microfiber cloths.

Meguiar's Gold Class and NXT Generation liquid waxes are not too bad, but the spray ones are quite useless so to speak I still prefer Soft99 Meta Clean liquid wax personally. It's recommended to me by a detailer and I have no regrets at all using it. My car is also black- it made my car look shiny and smooth.

yukaeshi u actually mod ur car?? i saw ur car pic already.. nicely done but u forget to remove ur car plate no. already

woh nice job there... u spend a lot for ur car detailing also huh

ralf, the proper way to see a car need clay or not is put a plastic cover(from cigaretes pack example) and then tough the car paint, if u can feel 'bintik - bintik' means it need clay, else, u can feel it very smooth ... however, as long as u drive out, for sure ur car paint is polluted by dust or stuff that can't wash away by car shampoo 1 ... means clay is a must before any wax/polish

Sometimes your car will also be "scratched" by dust particles trapped in sponges used during car wash. Also, if you use too high pressure water to wash/rinse your car, the water may "push" particles of sand/dust that is already on your car and cause minor scratches.

u guys use sponge to wash car?

i use the meguiars car wash mint ... like a glove 1 ...

and use 2 buckets system, 1 for shampoo, 1 for clean water ...

this wont prevent scratch but at least will minimise it ...

oh that thing expensive or not?

Meguiar's car wash mitt is RM 50 if I'm not mistaken. There are other brands of car wash mitts out there though, can check them out.

Car wash mitts are the best obviously. They may not completely prevent scratches, but it definitely can be minimised/avoided. The 2 bucket water (One for car shampoo + water and the other clean water) is also recommended

how long can its last? if i use weekly or every fortnight?

fuiyo ~ kenot tahan ~ i also wan to post ~ pls dun kill me ah ~ haahah




how jek ? cemburu ah ? hahahahahaha
