The most important layer that forms the protection layer over the paint clear coat. It of course also enhances the shine after polishing but the protection it offers is very crucial to a beautifully polished car. That is how you keep your car shining. Remember that a polished shining car will lose its shine if you don't protect the car against the environment which damages the clear coat of your car. You choose wax such as Meguiars Tech wax, Gold Class wax etc or Sealant such as Klasse (Germany). Sealant do offer you longer protection but some says wax is much more shiny so it is up to you to choose. Wax needs more maintenance and u can use Quik Detailer in between washes or re-apply every 1-3 months to keep the car protected. As for sealant you can use Klasse AIO for the same maintenance. Washing is very important as you don't want to strip the wax, so use good shampoo like in our shop we use professional products by Meguiar's Shampoo, mircofiber cloth, grid guard etc.Layers of polishing - I would like to make it simple by using my own description.First we look at the 'damage' like scratches, water marks, bird droppings can etch the clear coat of the best cars, swirl marks is light, medium or heavy.Worst case - Go for Klasse Premium Shine - RM350 for medium size cars. We use wool cutting pad, foam heavy cutting pad, medium cutting pad and finishing pad using either MENZENA or MEGUIAR's Diamond or a combination of both to remove the defects progressively then polish the clear coat to 'mirror' finish. The final finish also depends on the original paint work and the results may differ car to car. Mercedes is known to use ceramic clear coat with the method of painting will make a lot of difference. For most cars the difference will be very significant.Medium case - Klasse Standard RM250 will be sufficient if the car condition is in reasonable condition. We do not need to use wool pad or the more aggressive compound in the process. The finishing remains the sameLight case - Klasse Basic RM180 will remove the light swirls and finishing remains the same. Normally new cars only need this treatment.If you choose to re-wax or sealant then it is RM70 which is wash, claybar and wax/sealant.We will prepare the car by washing, clay bar 'scrubbing' and tar removal using Meguiars and standard industry products.The polished surface will be protected by either wax (Meguiar) or sealant (Germany). If you go by counting the steps from washing to waxing it is so numerous. Be careful when you compare 'steps' which we don't, we tell you what steps so you can ask others and make your own conclusion.-Joshua-</blockquote>
