Looks very nice! :D

No "bathing" for 2 days. So rain how? Or does that only mean cannot wash with car shampoo, etc for 2 days?

Oops! Double posting. Ah....I clicked the submit button twice. Can admistrator delete one ? Sorry....

Zoom,
Rain is fine. Just do not the surface being "disturb" while the teflon settle down by scrubbing when shampooing. Actually I found that the surface are glossier after 24 hours. The red seemed to brighter.

Neon mentioned that the glare applicator used a gloss meter to measure gloss but this PPS guy doesn;t have that. So, only it is my observation.......Try to meet up on Sunday, I need to check a few things with the "old birds" on 8 accessories....

I used Auri teflon coating earlier on - that kinda change the color to darker slightly and the metalic shine was less noticable. But it was a good product to use on previous my dark grey color car. Last much longer than those waxes out there. And bird dropping was easy to clean up. So now, will see how this new PPS teflon coating works.....

Neon, so what's your experience with Glare? Are you happy with the results?

Based on what I read about the various products/services so far, I'm inclined to go with Glare. But I just wanted to get some first hand experience/feedback before I go ahead with it.

Just did Swissol on my car, excellent carnauba wax. Nice shine and warm look. Give it a try and you won't regret.

My cut?

Well, i seen Xman's. Generally he's more oily after done.

I cant really remember if mines as shiny or not. I was satisfied wif the job tho cuz they haf a warranty with shine meter. So if u wanna be fussy, can go back every week n make sure ur baby meet the minimum shine factor (91% i think) or else they re-do or touch up free.

The car wash is another reason y i chose Glare. For $15 ( i think), u get the usual wash package bla bla....with rapid action waxing. Sometimes they also touch up FOC.

Mines JLN Tua Kong. Ppl there friendly n nice. I heard Paya Ubi branch also nice ppl there.

Xman's PPS shouldnt be far off too - in their service and maintenance.

Dats my take, choice's urs.

Cheers
