Carnauba Autospa at Glenmarie is a NO NO for me. I sent my car once and I'm not going back there anymore!

Hey what happened? CA Glenmarie is my favourite spot for car washes, they are quite detailed in exterior washing. I wouldn't say the same for the Tun Razak branch, though...

having a day with ur precious car and giving it a wash is the best(including interior)..no worries of scratches or everything.....

Sad to say, not many people have the time or the skill to be "having a day with ur precious car and giving it a wash" sad.gif

For detailing, it's better to check at Autoworld than FNF, try here, loads of information:

This is another useful link, Meguiar's Detailing 101 (you don't have to use Meguiar's products, just learn the basics):

dude i heard some positive response about turtle wax. Where can i get it i m living at small place in Johor. I still live at the top of the tree so kinda ulu(but i take lift to get in my house) =P .If KL sure no problem i heard many forumer recommend Eneos but the first time i heard them is from Initial D. laugh.gif but anyway which supermarket i can get turtle wax? Is turtle wax is a wax not polish?

Are you sure you're not an Ewok laugh.gif
Turtle Wax is a brand, they have all kinds of stuff.

Well, whatever products you use, you have to learn the basics, like the 2-bucket method, how to clay, how to wax, how to buff, time to wash, etc. Just Google around for some detailing forums smile.gif

carrefour should have it.. its quite common.. else singapore, which isnt too far from ur place tongue.gif

turtle wax shampoo ~17 ringgit for 1.9L

u must remember.. megxxxxx stuff is dirt cheap like single dollar digits in US wink.gif

Why is Megxxxxx so expensive here? The only Megxxxxx product I can comfortably afford is the applicator pads at RM6 each sweat.gif

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 tongue.gif

I've read that Gold Class wax is better for black cars if you want to bring out that shine. NXT is for durability and protection.

Or Meguiar's is just crapping us off.
