One of the best machine grooming guy in Singapore



Sent in my car for polishing in feb and touch up again for photoshoot last week. This guy is famous in many forms and is a freelance Groomer. He works on the car exterior only and is known to remove swirls without damaging ur paintwork. Products he used are also high end products. U guys should give him a try. He is very famous in mycarforum as the grooming and detailing guru.

By far one of the best groomers around who is good at using polishing machine.

pics as follows:

ok, to answer all your questions....

1. Damage wise, lets just say its good value for money. However the damage really depends on the condition of ur car. Not too much work needed, of cos expensive. He took 7 hours to "repair" my car, so i guess its value for money.

2. products he uses: wide range of products and mind u, all high end products. Those u normally will not find off the shelf. Menzerna, Optimum and so on. Of cos there is the occasional Mother's, Turtlewax, Meguairs but generally, most are high end stuff, and dats the quality u see on the car.

Dun worry he noes his stuff well.

BLackeight: He uses sealant more than wax. Wax dun last in our climate altho they give u the ultimate gloss. Sealant doesn gloss as much but last longer. As for watermarks he can get rid for u gradually, but dun expect miracles during the first polish. To remove the watermarks instantly will hurt ur paintwork.

bro,

thanks for the answers.

actually can see from the before / after pictures he did a really good job.
the swirl marks all gone.

nothing beats the shine on a black 8.
but 1 setback is he dun do interior cleaning leh.

most probably i will try him out when my next polishing is due
but i'm quite skeptical of any product that can match Zaino.

he does has his reasons not to do the interior cleaning... and i respected that. For the fact that he removed the swirls, i tink it more than made up for it, bro......

as for Zaino... its really not the best product around..... juz that its easy to use and everyone is using it....

Zaino products are pretty ex and it's still ain't the best around, coz for that kind of $$ spend, i am pretty sure you could get something cheaper.
(btw , i have use zaino and their concept is try to sell you the products and you DIY)
