We have with us a Mercedes GLC brand new from the dealership. The owner of the car brought the car back from the dealership and parked it till we got here a few days later. That's how much car lovers love their cars! No further delays, check out what we did.

Upon arrival, we did the routine walk around to check for obvious damages.

It was really sandy!

As we moved to the paint surface, severely watermarks can be seen.

Some leftover glue marks from the protective wrappers.

More hardened glue marks.

Some lighter glue stains that we almost missed.

The edges of the side sill were covered in stains as well.

The sun was shining onto the hood, so we check on the surface condition.

Well,there was no swirls or scratches on the paint

Fuel cap areas for a brand new car?

Still pretty dirty!


First we clean up the hidden areas.

Then we worked on these areas to bring them to a clean state.

Then we removed the glue stains and harden glue marks.

We then gave the paint a light polish to remove watermark build up.

Checking under the sun again to double confirm.

The surface was cleared of all watermark build up.

Restoring the surface to a clean condition, the car is now ready to be coated.


The wheels were not exactly dull, just dirty.

A closer look of the brake dust build up from merely 1 drive.

Lug nuts areas were not neglected in the process.

Spokes are cleaned thoroughly

and Finally, the wheels were coated for maximum protection and shine.


It was not a major or serious condition to work on, so we spent about 6hours restoring this huge SUV and finally topping it all up with our Opti-Coat™Pro. Check out the gloss and shine.

What do you do what you can't afford a proper racing simulator from those name brand companies? In true Malaysian spirit, I decided to DIY one. This DIY took me 2 months to complete. Actual time working on it was 2 full days plus some time on and off working on the misc and aesthetic parts. Started end of August and just managed to finish it. For those who want to DIY it, you can PM me for details. I'll be happy to provide sketches of...
