Carnewbie321 Neutral Newbie April 12, 2007 Share April 12, 2007 A friend of mine recently got his mit Lancer. He sent the car for 1000km servicing to C&C srvice centre. The staff advise him to go for $95/- polishing & waxing saying that waxing is to protect the paint works and it is better to do early rather than later. Any sense to this ? ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teckheng Neutral Newbie April 12, 2007 Share April 12, 2007 come join us for MadDriver Detailing Session (MDDS) and save the $95. (maybe will dump $50-60++ buying some MF cloths, Quick detailer and a starter kit?) Your friend will get to understand not only polishing and waxing, get to know friendly MadDriver, Benny, and understand MORE ABOUT his paintwork rather than pass $95 and get a paint-job done without knowing what product or what happen to the car during the paint-work. I do not know how the polishing and waxing standard but why not DIY and know what is happening to your own paintwork. Addition, you can sweat out and keep fit. $95 a clean polishing and waxing job done by C&C or $50-60++ for a clean polishing and waxing job done by yourself + some MF cloths for future detailing + Quick detailer + know friends + get healthy wow, what is your friend's choice ? (ahem... i think i will get sue by C&C....) PS: why you need to post for your friend ? he should register here, it's free. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carnewbie321 Neutral Newbie April 12, 2007 Author Share April 12, 2007 (edited) Actually I am just wondering for new car, wouldn't the paintwork have been waxed b4 delivery and should last at least few months before someone need to polish & rewax again ? Is the C&C staff trying to smoke my friend ? Normally we send a car for polishing & waxing only when the car start to loose the shine right. Would anyone do polishing for a new car that he has just collected less than 3 weeks ago ??? Edited April 12, 2007 by Carnewbie321 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ccssgm 1st Gear April 12, 2007 Share April 12, 2007 Too Expensive.......Sealant Better....... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apollo 1st Gear April 14, 2007 Share April 14, 2007 the protection fr japan is merely to prevent saline during shipping. usually a thick coat of wax. car polishing/ waxing is the same as women cosmetic.. u dun do it when the wrinkle show. it has to b a regular regime so u maintain tiptop shine. it is not meant to b a showoff thing. u will appreciate a good finish helps when it comes to cleaning off the car. @$95 it may not b expensive if tat includes leather seat cleaning. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
