Nothing wrong with listening to coltrane...

Aren't you in the mideast? I take it Abu Dhabi?

You should be able to pick up a big pack of decent mf towels. Not sure what shipping would be from here to there but exceldetail is a good site to order both mf towels and onr plus some aquawax.

If you guys have a target out there they have decent mf towels by voom. Those will work.

Not to be too obvious, but doesn't that negate any positive environmental impact, as well as the "waterless" factor?

Sorry... not hatin', just sayin'.

I've always been interested in the "waterless" systems, but was kinda scared to put a towel to the paint with dirt underneath... even with the spray on the finish.

haha not at all tahts a good pt. I guess if u do it regularly like every 2 days you wont need to use water, but if u havnt washed ur car in a week ( aweek for a black car in the desert is filthy) then its best to give the bad boy a rinse

y not? its only 50 dhs.

BTW i found out that Octane offer a siimilar porduct wash and clean, for 60 dhs for the exterior.

But if u do a full job interior and exterior complete renovation its 200 dhs. My buddy (OCD) did it for this gfs 1 year old cayenne and he told me it was like teh car brand spanking new.

These Pictures were before i do the black filming from outside & BTW its risky having 2 films at the same time. It will put to much load on the window regulator. My rear left window goes down properly and on its way up just before it reaches the following occurs:



But its not like a sea-saw it reaches with a slope then its back to equilibrium.
I removed the black filming from outside and i can see the improvement.
