They used a buffing machine to polish, and hand to wax. Everything inluding, shampoo, polishing compound and wax are from Meguiars. Well worth it... Now it's very difficult to see anymore swirl marks on my black CT under the sun thumbup.gif

RM220. And since this is something you only need to do about once a year, it's not that painful wink.gif

Hope you have found a place to buy it in malaysia. smile.gif If not, if you truly want, I guess I can try to help you buy one and ship it to you. Not sure how much the shipping will be but I think it will cost quite a bit. smile.gif

Not sure if any of you do this but I have started buying only microfiber cloth for my washing/polishing needs. I stopped using cotton pad applicator as I find that it is easier to polish using microfiber where the coverage is more even. After using, I will then wash and dry them but will only use it for wiping non-easily scratch interior. After using it on interior, I throw them away.

For washing/polishing the next time, I will get new microfiber cloths which is always softer and smoother while new. It is hard to get a used cloth to be as soft as new ones.
