Save the 1800 and do polish and wax every 6 to 12 months.

Coating is useless.

An update on the watermarks.

I did not go with the coating for obvious reasons but instead manage to wash my car every week and ensuring it's dry before hitting the sun; that means getting down and cleaning it with a dry cloth instead of letting the carwash personnel do it all.

So far no watermarks, car still gloss like brand new.

However, paint chip off from pebbles and small rocks on the front bumper. Those who drive on the MRR2, GOOD LORD.

Lucky TS did not went for coating. Seriously it is a waste of money.

Most important thing to take care of your car paint is avoid rain or tap water to dry under direct sunlight. This will leave minerals residue on the paint surface which is hard to remove later on.

My current practice is after washing or rinsing off the car, I will apply a coat of liquid wax for paint protection (any brand will do but I am using Turtle Wax 3x Carnuaba Wax). Fast, easy, less hassle and a lot cheaper than ceramic coating.
