Ya the wax job was half assed.

Rather do it myself. Or send it to a detailer if i have cash to waste.

Do you guys recommend to almost immediately do ceramic coating after I collect my car? I’ve heard people saying it will prolong the initial shine. Also, since the package comes with leather conditioning, is it ok to condition brand new leather?

Do go for a ceramic coat not too long after you collect the ride. Not sure whether the shop you go to corrects faults on the paint work or just wash and coat.

How do they correct faults on the paint works of a new car?

I’m not in this line. Talk to them instead.

1 or 2 step polishing, depending on the paintjob. It will smoothen out the imperfections.

It depends on whether you park indoors or outdoors at home and at work. If parked outdoors most of the time, best to get a coating done. 

I park indoors almost all the time so i don't see the need to do any coating, just a yearly maintenance. The legit coating costs a bomb, unlike those mobile or indy detailers on carousell.

so what is the average cost of a legit coating and any good and reputable ones to share?

Coating will last even longer due to you parking indoors most of the time. Worthwhile spending.

@Noobieowner 300 and upwards, depending on the products they use. 

Do your own research bro

Sure its easily available. However quality are different. I am just sharing the good stuff im using.

How is it not necessary? It makes drying of the ride effortless.

Cheap no doubt. But these cloths may leave behind swirl marks. 

I prefer to use chamois and dap away the water.

No don't have. You really don't read the car manual or WhatsApp your SE and ask?
