Latioboy 1st Gear August 16, 2006 Share August 16, 2006 (edited) Hey guys... My father surprised me by sending our cefiro to Amazing Glaze for a touch up . Meaning to get rid of all black stains that ''seeped'' into the pps layer. HAHA.. I was excited when the car came back and took some shots of it. 1st pic ) Roof of the car. SPOTLESSLY WHITE! 2nd) side view ( mind the latio in background. It has not been touched up for along time. 3rd) boot view. 4th) front bonnet. see the reflections! shing shing! 5th) engine bay ( just for fun) 6th) another side profile view 7th) yet another side view. 8th) side window view. NICE! Well, for a payment of $150 and they did such a nice job in removing all the stubborn stains and bird sxxt marks, and i think its good. And specially for a pearl white. car.

Number19 Neutral Newbie August 17, 2006 Share August 17, 2006 (edited) Well I guess white colour is tough to see any defect or shine for that matter Truth be told, I'm sure you know that no matter how you polish, shine of a white car can't beat that of a black car. PPS is good to have but without regular maintenance, bird bombs + watermarks etc etc will still affect your paintwork (as I found out ) So hor, might as well break a sweat and apply some sealant and slap on some wax on a monthly basis + save some $ Well at least that's what I did Cheers edit: Is your family Nissan supporter or Edited August 17, 2006 by Number19 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Number19 Neutral Newbie August 18, 2006 Share August 18, 2006 Bro its the lighting condition I feel. Latioboy take the pics in bright condition yours is a lil dark so most prob got difference~ perhaps the pics don't do the Cefiro justice agree? You'll be hard pressed to detail a white car that looks drastically more kilat than a clean white one. My ex family car also a whitie so I guess I can say I am telling from experience too PS: I like the civic headlights haha quite cool Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maddriver 4th Gear August 18, 2006 Share August 18, 2006 guess the lighting plays in important part.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mzrmazda3 6th Gear August 18, 2006 Share August 18, 2006 EEE. not fair one... HAHA.. why other people post pics of their shiny shimmering rides,, wahh got so many replies and some comments. but mine only got one LOOKS GOOD! hahaWell.. at least. thank god someone read it LAH Ai yo Bro, mai like that My towkay was just behind me when i reply to you post so quickly enter my comments and reply liao Wait tio 'Pok' lagi jialat tio bo Some more comments are:- 1) It looks good as the surface is clean including the rims which are shiny thumbsup] 2) It doesn't seems to have the 'Wet look' as compared to traditional wax cos Amazing Glaz-ed is a sealant or PPS jus like Glare? 3) Overall looks good hence my comment is 'Looks Good' loh Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Latioboy 1st Gear August 18, 2006 Author Share August 18, 2006 ermm amazing glaze is a pps lah. but i was told from them that NO polishing allowed or it would strip off the pps lahh.. so i dont dare touch.

Mzrmazda3 6th Gear August 19, 2006 Share August 19, 2006 Bro, add a layer of wax ontop of your PPS would make it look lagi better Trust me, i have done that on my 'Glared' ride and end effect is so much better than just the PPS alone Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Number19 Neutral Newbie August 21, 2006 Share August 21, 2006 Bro Mzrmazda3 is recommending you to slap on a coat of wax on top of your PPS. Polishing is entirely different thing altogether~ I also second the idea, I've waxed on top of Glare PPS before and I feel that the paint got more depth. If your dad's Latio the paint feels very rough, try using a claybar! Cheers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mzrmazda3 6th Gear August 21, 2006 Share August 21, 2006 (edited) Bro, i believe Bro Number19 has explained to you of what i meant Adding a layer of wax would definately add further glossiness and water beading would be much as compared to jus PPS alone For changing of color, one man's meat is another man's poison hence can't advise you much on this but do look through the forum to look for recommendations for paint spraying shops before you decide Edited August 21, 2006 by Mzrmazda3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ah_bon Neutral Newbie August 21, 2006 Share August 21, 2006 Be careful abt claybar PPSed car... you may remove your PPS in the process... ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
