ONR experiment findings on the glass coat... I got good results on the No Rinse Ratio. The car is kept clean and the dust is less noticeable. I tried QD ratio on the whole car, the week before. It seems to attract a lot of dust. Pero baka that's not the right use. Also, i parked the car sa open parking ng MOA.

I'm kinda curious on carpro's ech2o. Has anybody used that on their coats?

On the ONR No rinse ratio, I used a 1.5L water spray with pump. Yung pang garden. Kasya naman sya for the whole car basta hindi gaano ka dumi. Tapos may sponge ako with to spread the solution and pickup the dirt. Tapos micro fiber towels to dry the car. Hindi ko lang about yung roof. Kelangan ko ng step ladder hahha.

bro some qds do not have anti static properties...

buffing also intensifies static.. wet vs damp vs dry

How about South Casa? The shop behind Kia Molino. I was looking at their price list & a small SUV like a Tucson will cost P18k. Their Hilamos (washover) with detailing & glass coating is P30k. How does the price compare?

I got my glass coat for 21k sa rebirth las pinas. That includes paint correction. If gtechniq * optimum impressions, that would be around 17k (ata). Also, includes the paint correction.

Is washover needed ba sa new car? Baka sulit sya kung hindi na gaanong bago yung car.

Nagpa-glass coat ako ng car namin including all the glass. Kaso nagski-skip ung wipers. So eventually, i has the coating of the front windshield removed. Now, I'm worrying na magka-watermarks naman ung front windshield.

So should I try coating the windshield again? If so, should I try another brand?

I've heard of aquapel for coating the windshield. Not sure if anybody carries that here. Also I've heard about the ultra glaco windshield coating. No feedbacks about that too.

To those who had their windshield coated, nagski-skip ba wipers nyo? Be it kung mahina or malakas ung ulan?

Have used Aquapel before ... it will also make wipers skip ... got them from Amazon ... have tried other products also ... most will make wipers skip ...

Yes, I'm having the same experience every time I cleaned my windshield with rain repellent even on a new car.

What I'm using now is clean my windshield with ArmorAll autoglass cleaner, then seal it with Turtle Ice synthetic wax and works great.

The only problem is I'm on my last bottle of TW ice and I think they discontinue this product, as I could not find it anymore and still looking for replacement.

I've been considering aquapel... I guess I'll just stick to Microtex. I remember I used elevo, but the product is so strong that it can damage your paint. However, I do remember that it's so effective that during heavy rain I used the slowest speed for wiper.

So same experiences pala with coated windshields. Skipping wipers. Siguro will try the soft99 ultra glaco windshield coating as a last resort. Kung magskip pa rin, no coating on the windshield na.

[Ginnova]

Change wipers blades then have the blades coated also.

[Ginnova]

Yes wiper blades need to be coated as well.

Today, we'd like to debunk some marketing gimmicks used by many:

1. Ceramic coatings will never be scratch-proof. Hitting a coated car with a lighter and then removing the "scratches" are just gimmicks. Those are just plastic (material) transfers sticking on the paint. Heck, a simple wipe with an old or dirty cloth would still scratch your paint! It's true though that it will have slight scratch-resistance due to coating's hardness.

2. Watermarks can still appear on your paint when rained on and exposed to sunlight on a daily basis, without proper care. A water bead dried on a surface would leave a mark, no matter what magic trick you do. Neglected cars will still look bad after a few months of neglect.

3. Coating application is not the main step that makes your car super glossy. It's the processes before applying it which makes it glossy. Prep work is critical and should not be rushed. Finishing a car in under 6hrs should already warn you of poor prep work. Majority of detailers will leave you holograms that would indicate you just wasted your money.

4. Coatings are VERY EASY to apply. You should find the best and knowledgeable detailer, not the cheapest company that offers the fastest coating application. It's important to stick to your trusted detailer.

We are posting this to stop misinformation to a lot of car owners. Ceramic coatings are still far superior than waxes or sealants, though.
