MoonRiverOasis Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 Wolfgang Fuzion Estate over a Meguiars #21 base - I've never seen white "pop" so much, and the detail it brings out in the flakes under sunlight is just awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fredob43 Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 LOOK'S FANTASTIC. But you have to do it YOURSELF. Every third clean I get my local shop to do a wax for 300bt not as nice I agree but there's about 4/5 of them and it take's over two hour's. Today it's 32c. I love my car but not that much.

Yes, you have to DIY - there's about 400B of product alone in this detail so your regular detailer just won't use this grade of product. The good thing is it's not hot work - high quality products like this go on slow and easy, and come off fast and easy, so there's no breaking a sweat - the whole car took 70 mins start to finish (including beer breaks) with hand application and removal. In the past I've spent several hours laying and removing a single layer of cheaper wax on a smaller car, and the end result is nowhere near the same - this car now looks like it's been dipped in pure molten glass The photos just can't do it justice - such is white.

steelepulse Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 Looks great! Would this be readily available in Phuket do you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoonRiverOasis Posted December 21, 2010 Author Share Posted December 21, 2010 (edited) Looks great! Would this be readily available in Phuket do you think? It's a concours level product, so not the kind of thing your local car detailer is going to have in stock. However, some vendors that have stock from time to time on the Thai Washer Car Club site: http://www.thaiwashe....php?board=26.0 Outside of that, the best place to order it is AutoGeek: http://www.autogeek....er-car-wax.html Edited December 21, 2010 by MoonRiverOasis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MoonRiverOasis Posted December 21, 2010 Author Share Posted December 21, 2010 (edited) Thanks MRO. The 8 oz size costs just $175 .. Have a look around the Thai Washer site - there's vendors there selling 2oz tub (8oz split 4 ways) for 1100 Baht, the 3oz mini for 1590 Baht and the full 8oz (without the wooden box) for 3500 Baht.

rixalex Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 (edited) Paint finish looks great... but i'm not loving the plastic chrome indicator surrounds. Is that how she came, or is it, dare I say, a Big C parts bin, aftermarket affair, that the Thais seem so fond of plastering over their machines? Just wondering...

Was in a place today and asked about same they said guarantee for one year. !!!!!!!!!!!!! but that aside it was 20,000bt for a Fortuner. Even more of an EEEEEEEEK than the price of your wax.

Yes, familiar with it - it's a polymer sealant, similar to what I have as the first layer on the paint (underneath the Wolfgang). Good for longevity, but provides a shallow, lifeless type of gloss. Great underneath a good wax though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fredob43 Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 Thank's for that seem's a bit pricey at 20,000bt though, they have another set up they say last's for 6 month's TIT!!!!!!!! for 2,000bt will have a go at that in the next week or so.

The car has been in for a new rear bit M/C hit it no problem now sorted. They spoke about the wax issue when I took it in. My Thai must be worse than I thought as they have done the 2,000bt wax job. Look's great as it should for that price. Will put in a later post on how long it last's, and what wax they put on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They asked me if I would like it done when I took the car in, and I said yes maybe at a later time/date, in my best Thai of course. Seem my best Thai is CRAP. It was later though well the next day, so they were right I suppose,TIT. Oh well we all live and learn. But they made a cracking job of the repair and the car look's like new again. But 2,000bt sob, sob, sob. Of course if you T/A or anyone would like to chip in for a fellow chum a cheque would be nice. Please send a P/M for detail's of where to send. I await in hopeful anticipation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
