Individual sessions would cost about RM700 without the package. This post has been edited by sleepwalker: Jul 26 2006, 10:31 PM

I can't steam clean my seats from home. I can't do pre-polish treatment at home. I don't have running water at home.. I live in an apartment.

Yo guys, im currently using turtle wax (the paste type). Is it good? does this kinda wax makes my paint thinner everytime i wax it? should i use polymer base wax? and 1 more thing, will washing the car with car shampoo wash away the wax also?? sorry car detailing noob here.

Next round, go try out SOFT99 Rain-HOP or Fussco Coat. No it will not make your paint thinner. Polymer base is long lasting than carbauna waxes, but the depth carbauna is better. car shampoo usually doesn't strip the wax that much, it does but just little only.
