I don't know if Elevo's available there in SG but im sure its available here, someone told me Elevo is a local brand for some retail company, im just not sure on that information

Yep so far so good with Microtex Tireblack

Haha for swirls and correction you really have to work the polish for a long time and for me and in most cases thats at least 12 passes hehe, with finishing polishes i could even go for more than 20 passes just to work them properly and produce a hologram free finish

as for those products, since they're a bit expensive i would suggest you just apply them by hand you kinda save more with hand application and the difference with machine application doesn't vary that much

SG SRP at most 2 passes only

wow tireblack that can be used on plastics trims, medyo namumuti na din kasi ung ibang plastics sa exterior.... napabayaan na.

yup that's my mistake, i did not work the polish for a long time. waaahhh maybe that's why im not satisfied on the shine n my car? next time ill try the 20 passes. 3-4 settings...hehe


ah ok i thought its better to apply ag srp/m21/ and next gen 2.0 by ROP because you've mentioned that my ROP is way better than a PC when it comes on applying glazes. better to stick on hand application...


how do we properly apply elovo on the windshield? with ease...


1. clean with carshampoo?
2. clay
3. clean again?
4. apply elovo
5. apply carlack 68/diamondite sealant?


and finally how do i remove this stubborn dirt around the emblem... its very hard to remove....

Machine application of glazes is ok since glazes tend to dry really fast but those products you mentioned are not glazes, AG SRP can be applied using machine to give it a little mo pump in correction so you get a better shine but thats just about it, M21 and NXT are both pure waxes unlike AGSRP which has some polishes, M21 and NXT don't have polishes so there's no point to work them using the machine

the kit has a foam included that you use to wipe the windshield clean of waterspots

yup that procedure is correct.
