A Touch of MagicGlare

Brought my ride for grooming over the weekend at MagicGlare Car Grooming Center in Seremban 2.

After much info-digging on the web on the Glare range of products & the 24 months warranty on the gloss, I was still a little sceptical on the end results. Nevertheless, never try...never know.

Here's some info & pix on their lengthy hand-job:

1. Spa wash - in which they used the clay bar while washing the car to lift sand and other particles off the paint surface before checking the gloss level.








Plenty of swirls & water marks on the battered paint surface which only managed to register a 73.6% on the gloss meter.



2. Sealed and tucked away potruding rubber linings and emblems before starting off.





3. Cleaning & Preparing the surface (from scratches, watermarks, tar & etc.) using something called the 'blue-compound'.








4. After an elaborate 1.5 hours spent just to prepare the surface, it's now time to fill up the surface with Micron (a product of MagicGlare)




By now, the paint surface was already looking really good; All smooth & shiny without any obvious imperfections. Colour on the surface was deep and results were way above average of what other 'off the shelf' polish & wax products can do.

At this stage, even with the near perfect paint surface, it's just the beginning of the detailing job.



5. The rest of the 3 hours was spent on covering every hairline cracks and tiny (micro) valleys on the paint surface with Glare Professional Polish and Glare Micro-Finish to seal and provide a protective coating to the glassy-smooth hard finish.


The revolutionary Glare Professional Polish & Glare Micro-Finish contains Glassplexin that gives the paint an ultra high gloss finish and protection against UV rays which would not breakdown under harsh weather conditions unlike conventional polishes and wax.


After 5 hours, it's FINALLY DONE!





Gloss level of the paint surface now stands at 93.5% !







TADAAAAA !!!!

Solid high-gloss mirror finish; Check out the sharp & detailed reflection of the evening sunset on the bonnet surface that resembles a piece of mirror!

I always think that it's an advertising gimmick when they put up pix like that, but now I'm totally convinced by looking at the proven results on my CAR! Simply amazing!


Every cent spent was totally worth it when you get this level of gloss & shine on your car.





No wonder these are the only guys in the industry that gives a 24 months written warranty on their polishing job.
