I found that the Deep Crystal System 1 and 2 are abit difficult to buff off. For beginners, its easier to use ColorX. The new NXT 2.0 should arrive Malaysia this month!

Hi, DC1 and DC2 is 1)wipe on wipe off or 2)wipe on then wait awhile to wipe off stuff??

DC1..is wipe then wipe off, you do not have to wait for it to haze
DC2..you need to work the product onto the paid, as in keep rubbing until the residue is gone.
DC3.. wipe..wait dry wipe off.

hope i m correct on this

Hi, a question... should car detailing start when we get our new car??

or wait for 2 years only start car detailing?

ppl say car detailing should not be applied on new car as this may damage the paint. is this true?

IMHO..it depends. Sometime before they(salesman) deliver the car to you, they will sent the car for detailing first. But for me, i will still send the car for detailing. New cars but the condition where they store your car already have sufficient time to season the paint. The only time that you shouldn't detail the car is when the paint is still fresh, you need to wait around 3-4 weeks down the road for the paint to cure. Do correct me if i m wrong on this.

detailing may included polishing...
usually polishing not recommended for new paint, no point to remove paint layers since the paint is still new...

new paint doesn't mean it look great and feel great and with protection ma. . Usually new cars when send for detailing job, they won't use heavy cutter polishing. Just a normal paint cleaner and some light polishing will do the job, no clear coat paint will be removed. Detailing doesn't necessary mean will remove the layers ler ..just my 2cent

Kuching here not easy to find those good item.

Even for meguire, only Parkson got. Somemore not full range.

Most common u can get r those local brand one.

So I use Amway PolyGlaze only lo.

better than nothing..unless u ship from KL la

oic... so detailing can be done on new cars la??? it is better as it provide additional protection to the paint??? by doin this, the ori paint can be protected??

thats is my IMHO lar, as long it is not on fresh paint from painting garage. For new cars, the cars has been under the sun/run/daylight/night and so on. The paint should be cured by then, so there is no problem doing a light detailing job on it. The reason why new fresh paint are not advisable to polish and seal is because u need to the paint to breath and cure first, if you seal it before it is cured then u might have a rough surface, like pimple or some sort. Do correct me if i m wrong on this.

the kota Damansara one is just beside the kopitiam right.? opposite is the hawker centre.

not really kopitiam..is something like a kopitiam shop corner lot. Just next 2 doors away is the detailing shop. opposite is a coffee shop.

hi, i am using PG sealant polymer.

question is that - can it be used frequently? will the paint be damaged if used frequently?

PG sealant polymer is safe to use frequently but just make sure when you apply it sealant doesn't get into black trim areas.

Soft 99 Meta Clean is a Cleaner Wax.

anyone tried going to Klasse at Subang USJ?

i m using KLASSE..so which part of Subang USJ? got the address?..is the owner named Simon?
