New Car collection !!! whacked by the dealer!! Malaysia car detailing guru correction
My buddy has been preparing& welcoming his new baby.... a black princess
Doing alot of goggling & detailing research...I specifically asked him to pick up this ride under a bright noon day sun.....
but due to his busy schedule.....he only managed to pick it at 11pm & by them time he reach home, just prior giving this baby a new shower....under his porch lamp......he discovered ...
lots of micro Marring & thousands of fine scratches all over the car....But how can it be ?
Obviously he is furious how can a new ride became like this. he take some sun light shot
wow.....what are you seeing now
another discovery....holograms marks like buffing trials left on the car?????? why on a new ride??
back bonnet
WWYD??
another evidence
residue of previous detail AKA polish wax
what will you do??
what can he do????
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ +++++++++++++++
many would have accepted this as fate...but for one who has done a slightly more google of have join a detailing clinic would know.....
what happen ? this new ride actually passes through lots of hands & in the processes of delivery....I happen to find water spots on the glass & paint - obviously it is left park at open area...where dirts & contaminants. washes after washes through different distribution dealers & sub show room ....adds more fine scratches on the paint...
this damages is done by some irresponsible detailer or car wash guys..

Another reason why you order a car still in the plastic
less work for you to correct when you get home
order car
car arrive on truck
car stays in plastic
go to pick up car
car is unwrapped in front of you
you inspect
you approve
drive home
DETAIL
Great turn around on that car

Wow, what a great turnaround KC.
That was actually a great paint job after you were finished with it. The lack of orange peel for a factory paint job is impressive!

Nice save KC! They marred up the paint so badly it looked grayish in the light of some of those pictures.
