ThaiSmarterThanYou Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 Hello, Which car detailing place does the best job on your car leather interior ? Do you think that Meguiars products are better, and do you know which seller of http://www.thaiwashercarclub.com is reliable to buy them cheaper ? There is a Meguiars shop in Bkk, is it worth wasting time going there ? I hate brands that do not propose only 1 product of the same kind, look at Meguiars ridiculous range: http://www.meguiars.co.th/webpage/?lang=2 Which one would you choose ? Thank you so much and sorry for all the questions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMHO Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 (edited) Their consumer range is OK, but their Pro/Detailer ranges are kick ass. My recommendation: All Purpose Cleaner from their Detailer range for cleaning the leather (and every other surface in your car) Leather Conditioner from their Detailer range to protect the leather (and make it smell nice). If you get the All Purpose Cleaner in a small portion, it won't come with instructions - so make sure you read them online so you dilute it correctly.

raffo77 Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 gave them a call and could not order what i wanted. seems products on the website are 2 years old and the leather products i want are not available anymore. will visit their stand at the expo to get an idea of the new products (free entry tickets ). not that urgent to maintain my leather seats as they are brand new Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thailanddogerator Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 Hello, is Meguiar really better than any local brand amd what local cheap brand is good enough for brand new car ? Thanxxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IMHO Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 (edited) Hello, is Meguiar really better than any local brand amd what local cheap brand is good enough for brand new car ? Thanxxx Meguiar's have been making surface care products for 114 years, and are trusted by car detailing professionals around the world. What brand did you want to compare them to? Given that no brand is going to offer you any guarantee it won't discolor or otherwise damage your leather, established trust and professional opinion is really all you have as a guide. If you're willing to roll the dice on your leather seats though, go for it As for the question in your other thread about TWCC vendors, I can personally recommend Soonchawal, Ames, Ohmohm and waxmaniashop - but I'm sure all the one's sponsoring that forum (big colorful letters on the dark gray background) are just as trustworthy and offer just as good service. Bear in mind that you use very small portions of product, so whatever you buy will last a long time. As an example, I bought a gallon of the Detailer Leather conditioner about 6 years ago, and over that time have used it regularly* on my 4-5 cars that have leather - at this stage I'd say I still have about 10 years supply * Daily drivers get some every month or so, non-daily-drivers maybe only every 3-4 months.

thailanddogerator Posted September 22, 2015 Share Posted September 22, 2015 Hello, Thank you for your reply, my original post was. It's boring to buy expensive products to clear the car leather, so do you know what local products are good to use ? I want one to clean and one to condition. What are they using at detailing shops ? Are you sure that Meguiar is really profesional ? Don't tell me that no local brand is able to make a detergent and a conditioner for cars at a cheap price ? Thank you again.

JAS21 Posted September 22, 2015 Share Posted September 22, 2015 (edited) Look on Tesco shelves ... plenty BUT as mentioned by Mr IMHO Meguiars APC is good. I bought a gallon (US) for 1400 thb delivered. You can actually use it 'all around the house' well madam can . It cleans the leather well, and fabric and and ... It will last many years ,,,,, You can buy smaller amounts... a 10% or 20% solution is normally okay for most cleaning. It does a great job on a white leather settee. Meguiars seem to have a two tier pricing system ... their Re-sellers are considerably more expensive than direct. Mr IMHO has recommended TWCC ... good advice as ordering direct from Meguiars appears not to be that easy.

JAS21 Posted September 22, 2015 Share Posted September 22, 2015 (edited) I have a unused and unwanted one of these. I'm only a few kms from CW Immigration. Google the reviews and then come and collect if you want. I prefer Autoglym Leather Care Products. Edited September 22, 2015 by JAS21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raffo77 Posted September 22, 2015 Share Posted September 22, 2015 finished about 400cc of leather conditioner in a few months, on 2 cars, price is about 600 something Baht, so why go for low cost - high risk (of getting your seats damaged)?

thailanddogerator Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 Thank you, but do they sell autogkym here ? where ? On lazada I found that Meguiars is selling their cleaner + condition for 600 thb, cheaper than the washingclub forum it seems ? Are you sure that professionals use use cheap products as Meguiars ? Maybe this is why I don't want these people to touch my very expensive leather ! (yes I know, this is weird for many people to look for the price of detergent when you own a 5MB car but do you think that we buy these cars by wasting money ?!) In UK COLOURLOCK has better reputationthan Meguiars but it seems impossible to find here ? Thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raffo77 Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 no problem using meguiars on my ride. while the price of my car is not in your league, my seats come from here: https://www.facebook.com/Medici-Style-Srl-1385029331771856/timeline/?ref=ts they do special edition models, including Ferraris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have never heard of Colourlock - in fact I've read literally thousands of online posts from detailing pro's and amateurs alike, from all over the world, and this is the first time I've ever heard it mentioned. I'll need to check it out After piquing my interest, I couldn't help but do this: http://www.googlefight.com/colourlock-vs-meguiars.php One thing you do need to bear in mind with Meg's is that they have several different ranges of products... from low-end consumer to high-end pro. The products I've previously mentioned here are both from their pro range, and I challenge anyone to be disappointed with them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thailanddogerator Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 The one I found on lazada, is it a good one ? http://www.lazada.co.th/meguiars-gold-class-rich-leather-cleaner-conditioner-lotion-405283.html Actually it seems cleat that it's better to have a separate cleaner and conditioner whatever is the brand, but they don't have it online.

The Gold Class range has been around for a long time - I first used it as a teenager - I guess that means it has a loyal following. This vendor has the full range for 500 Baht/bottle: http://www.weloveshopping.com/template/e9/s_product.php?groupproduct=1472284&shopid=246897 Honestly though, I'd still recommend the pro range (D180). The seller 'soonchawal' on the TWCC site sells 12oz (350ml) for 280 Baht. Just be sure to wipe it down with a clean cloth a few minutes after application, so it's not shiny. Or don't wipe it down if you like your leather to look like cheap vinyl If you do get the D180, make sure you also get some All Purpose Cleaner (D101). The same vendor sells 8oz (which will make over 2 Litres once diluted) of it for 80 Baht. If you don't have a clean spray bottle, make sure you order one of them too - 35 baht for a cheap 16oz one. All up that's only 395 Baht + EMS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thailanddogerator Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 I think it's stupid to pay 30k+ for coating when I can get the complete car repainted for a bit more... If you have a 5M baht car, why not just glass coat it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
