Puiru 2nd Gear November 16, 2015 Share November 16, 2015 I tend to disagree because i told SE i prefer to get my car after Dec, the longer the better. It is the SE that told me it cant be done. The latest he can allow me to delay is the car must deliver to me by end Dec. So turn out i have to pay extra $ for indent color due to the AD force me to take the car earlier? Year ending raining season. As my office is open space carpark, Now have to worry How to protect the glass coating on the car before it has been cured, without rain on it Take a day leave so car can be parked at home or take publc transport to work. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Axela72 5th Gear November 16, 2015 Share November 16, 2015 (edited) read from somewhere that after the coating, we need the surface untouched for a day. Just like after we do filling for teeth, we also need a couple of hr not to eat food, right? I see, those pp2 coating. With that take so long to cure?Ty What if during that day of coating, it rain? Request coating shop to let me park there until the rain stop and the floor is free of water before I drive off? Take a day leave so car can be parked at home or take publc transport to work.

You can't control the weather but you can make arrangement to avoid the rain touching your glass coated car. Another way is DIY glass coat. You will be able to do coating in your home sheltered carpark and let it cure before driving out. Btw before you think I may be pulling your leg about DIY, I applied glass coat on my forester myself.

Actually I am a car detailing fanatic and love to get my hand dirty. It gives me a strong sense of fulfillment and satisfaction from each detailing work done. Glass coating is something new and it triggered my passion to DIY. Applying glass coating is not difficult. It's the car surface preparation work that's tedious. In return, the satisfaction level was very high and saved some money for other mod. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Third is to find a detailer that has shop area that has big enough space to put your car there fore the next 6-10hours. Actually for Silver that you are choosing, very easy to maintain la.. as long as car is not washed by bangala nightly, should be ok Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little_prince Supersonic November 17, 2015 Share November 17, 2015 heard it's 2016 March onwards.. but may not have same OMV as now as it's better equipped.. so u may have to adjust your current price level upwards.. still within budget if its at 135-150k at current COE level next year? at 135-150 range then won't be a value preposition to me. at that price point, i would be very tempted by the harrier....

Before test drive, Harrier, CRV, Rav4, Xtrail, Sorento rank above the forester turbo. After test drive, the equation kinda changes. It's not just the pricing. Even if Harrier or other makes pricing came down or if foresters adjust pricing upwards.. choices may still be the dame ↡ Advertisement 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
