    if you wash at home, basic princple applies: no scratches or swirls.

    not so basic procedure 🤣:

    *requires pressure washer and foam gun. two buckets. plush microfibers and a good car shampoo.

    rinse the dirt. dont point fun *90º thats called sand blasting 🤣
    soak with foam gun softens residual dirt
    rinse the soften dirt..
    optional step:decontaminate
    optional: wash and brush (2bucket still rinsing the dirt)
    rinse finally
    dry plush fiber.


    or find a coat friendly car wash shop...

    wash and dry as careful as you can to minimize swirls and micro scratches...

    Is this a more affordable version of the highest end Ceramic Pro cost that you mentioned before?

    The problem with long term coating is that your car will still accumulate scratches and swirls along the way, no matter how thoughtful you are in washing, particularly if your car is a daily driver. Scratches in the parking lot can't be totally avoided, and with a glass coat you just cant buff these things off easily. What most people forget is that it is only resistant, and scratch or swirlproof. So what happens is, you'll spend more on long term glass coats, but eventually you'll still have those scratches which will even be more visible with that gloss. As what Big Bert's once told me, mas okay pa din na a year lang yung coat mo, so you don't have to spend the next 2 - 5 years driving around with a glossy car full of swirls and scratches.

    Another thing is, a lot of these coats don't exactly have independent laboratories testing these claims, and you also have to factor in the weather and driving conditions in this country to realize these coats won't last as long as they do in Europe or the US.

    Would you rather use the car without a coat then?

    Another new brand I've seen which has earned good reviews is Korean brand Gyeon. South Casa I think will be the distributor here. Also, CarPro (makers of Cquartz) have released their Immortal (self healing) coating here. Inquired how much it will cost for my Hilux and it's around 120k, good for 9 years ata. Glass coat nalang. haha.

    Japanese brand Brila by GMAN car care has also good reviews, and requires no curing time.

    normal lang yan mga marketing ploy/gimmick para bumenta. nasa consumer na lang kung anong maganda sa pandinig at mata nila
