Anyone planning to do PPS for your new forte?

Been reading about Protection Paint Sealing (or watever it suppose to stand for:lol: ; juz to protect the car's colour)

Wonder is it worth the money? Some swears by it, some like chin chai dont see a need to,juz happily drive from Pt A to B can liao.

Anyone planning on this upon collection?

ME... I will do CSII.. Actually for easy maintenance in future.

Not only CSII... I also intend to do 2-way alarm as I frequent malaysia quite a lot. But i will put that on hold first till there is a proven bypass mobiliser module for FORTE..

Confirm got immobiliser in our Forte ar? I see the key like dont have one leh.

i done my PPS at http://www.groomwerkz.com/ using a product call DiamondBrite..

anyone heard of system 6? I havent seen anyone discussing about this. Is it the same as this PPS that you all are talking about? I understand system 6 got to do with waxing, polishing etc.

system 6 is the one given by C&C if the se managed to throw in freebies. I not sure if system-6 will have any waranty or not... But i know at least CSII got 18months waranty.

thanks impact & fortessimo. one more question: if i have the system6, is the CSII PPS repetitive? I understand that System 6 has paint sealant too.

Hi garvin,

may i refer you to this thread for more understanding... CSII also appy paint sealant, but i won't be the best person to explain the theory behind it.. Bro Fortessimo had done his.. 3 months later ask him to take pictures of before and after... Then you judge for yourself. haha..

anyone tried this bfe?

looks like no cheap....

Did PPS for my previous car when it was about 2 weeks old for between $200-300 cannot remember....

This PPS is recommended for new paintwork only. It like an oil base coating that sticked to your paint and cannot be washed off easily. You can feel it with your finger. This coating prevents harmful UV ray/acids/bird's dropping etc....from penetrating into the paint. You will need to go back annually for re-coating and will need to pay a fee (think it is about $50+).

I stopped going back after the third year because with this coating you cannot do waxing or polishing.... and my paint is begining to look dull...imagine car not wax or polish for 3 years.....

Eh ?? cannot polish and wax?? Then how to maintain my car surface???

Oil base coating? hmmm... like that if wax or polish sure will remove that pps right? Macham like waste money only...

eeehh?? i tot they will do waxing for u each time u go back for the annual inspection ah.. looks like corrotec will do the waxing wor.. so if they do waxing for u, i think the paint shldn't look dull liao bah..

U become the "spokewomen" for CORROTEC... haha..

hahaha.. yah hor!! hey!! i muz charge them for advertising fee..

CSII unique is at ubi right?? Might ask them to do.

with this PPS washing is very easy cause nothing get stick to the surface....was told this coating contain PTFE (similar to the coating on our non-stick frying pan). Feel that it really protect the paintwork...

... not suppose to wax or polish cause will remove away the coating.....but anyway the first time i tried to polish my car after I stopped going back for the re-coating, got a really hard time cause the polish very difficult to "eat" into the paint. It is only after the third polish that i feel the coating is no longer there...

And it is unlikely that they will wax or polish for you during the re-coating cause it is going to be alot of hard work and for only $50, it is most unlikely.....

I think most of us know how to use a claybar and the purposes..Here is a video for Bros and Sis who are not sure how to go about with a claybar..

Of cos i dun use QD la..Is a big investment..I usually fill shampoo mix with water in a spray bottle and use it like a Quick detail..

Unless if you are not going to polish or wax and you want to have a waxy oily feel..Then use a Quick detailer with clay...

Cheerios

for $70 - $80, Newsman can make ur car keem keem n Swee Swee until can see kar kui kui, nem liap nei using ULTIMA Sealant. Check out his pictures on his car

70 - 80 is the Solution money leh..... I think u ask newman to do... sure charge alot for workmanship man..... So hard work.... but I think price of workmanship includes let u all see "neh neh".... see sexy body ya....

For new ride, worth to spend times detailing it. Choose a good sealant products i.e Ultima, Duragloss, klasse, etc. Find out the proper detailing procedure. Remember do not wax or polish in circular motion that will induce more swirl marks, try to do it horizontally..While buffing off, make sure your detailing cloth is 100% clean before buffing...
Suffer for the first month follow by preventive measures monthly...every car wash yr ride will be kim kim....My black car eevn after so many years after a good wash will return to kim kim state with just some QD applied...

By if lazy of course can pay someone to do it..so far CSII reviews pretty positive, can consider..

Any one know how much it cost to do CSII?
