PPF to protect front of car. Don't need whole car.

Then wax every 2-3months.
Don't polish unless the shine is gone

Ceramic coating can't protect your car from stone chips btw

If I PPF, do I still need to polish and/or wax the car?

Would the car look more beautiful with PPF or wax? Or can/should I do both?

Polish is when car shine not there, it's to remove very thin layer of clear coat btw, so it's not for you to do it frequently

Wax is added a layer of shine.
Wax it every 2-3months.

Once shine becomes dull, or for watermarks or thin layer of dirt that can't be washed off, only polish.
Then wax.


PPF is protection against stone chips, front bumper, hood, front wheel area. (Like screen protector)
Need to wax

Yeah it is going to be my everyday ride. I didn't pay RM240k for an orange conti to keep it at home hahaha
GGuard is OK is it? They have promotion for their most expensive package, front-end cover RM2150 for M size car (my G20).
oh, like polishing shoes

Now I am partial between the few options. maybe wax the whole car, then PPF front-end for RM2150..

What is a good order of things?

PPF front = protect front
Wax = every 2-3months interval (see no shine then go wax d)
Polish = every year interval
