In response to Sunnywuh's suggestion of AP Racing kit. According to a pro shop, AP for E90, one of the the hub mechanicals has to be customed built locally as they don't come with the kit. This is the reason I am getting Project Mu because the whole kit is originally Japan designed for E9X.
Anyone has further information to share?

What is Sealer and Glaze?

This products name is Sealer and Glaze, and should not be compared to products that have become known as 'Sealant'.( A sealant in the main is a last step product that is (in the main) synthetic by nature.)

This Sealer and Glaze is not that type of product at all.
The idea is that during the naming process, years ago, before the word 'Sealant' became popularly trendy, that this product was used to (rough explanation only, and most probably incorrect, sorry for that) seal in the original polish, the Pre Wax Cleaner which is the first stage. This is the second stage, and this product contains a superfine polish to seal off that original polish. The Glaze part of the title refers to the elements in the product that level out the microscopically tiny valleys in the paint, bringing them up to the level of the top of the painted surface. Then the product again should be covered with that hard 'candy like' shell of pure carnauba.

Keep in mind also that the nature of this product Sealer and Glaze is such that it is short lived indeed when compared to Pure Carnauba or the synthetics, so the effect, if this is left as the topmost product will look temporarily stunning, but will be short lived.

No golden color for non-Japanese models, otherwise I can pretend a Subaru...

t, I think u has just mentioned opposite the case, sealant is what we called synthetic waxes having an excellent durability which can last 6 to 9 months or even longer, whereas the carnauba car waxes are 100% natural producing a deeper, darker and richer shine, most enthusiasts and show car owners prefer the shine of carnauba waxes, especially on black, red and other dark colors. But, On the minus side, they are not as durable as synthetic waxes.

Just met u guys at the Mini meet, very nice to meet u all today and very nice cars .... makes me want to get some modding done quick hehe ...

So after I parked home, i managed to wipe clean the BMW logo on the driver side door (it was some glue, i would guess...), some water+tissue did the job ...

And tomorrow i will ask my sales guy to check why my Rear Seat Head Rest are different compared to Bp1996 ..... and get him to install my Rear Spoiler again ....

So again, nice to meet u all, it was fun talking to u all and seeing your rides ... i would love to see them again in sunlight la ...

See u all next time !

* To chili, about the idrive as i told u during the meet, its about HKD25,xxx.00 (before tax)... just letting u know again in text ...

[Chili]

cool, I like the Montego blue very much, in fact montego blue + saddle brown interior was my 1st choice combo, however my wife's favourite was Black Sapphire + Corral Red

[Chili]

finally I told the truth to my wife for what happened tonight, her response is $450 is more important than 3 pts :sad0147:

Yes, S&G is 'short live' if you only apply this as the outer layer.
S&G is not intended to be a standalone application but it should be the 2nd step of the Mother Ultimate 3-Step Wax process.
So long pure carnuaba wax is topped up on the S&G layer regularly, then the effect of S&G will last 6 months.

t,

I found Mothers Leather Cleaner and Leather Conditioner in Kowloon City. Are they good? I want to upkeep the seats. Also, have problem getting a bottle of AIO, any Mothers eqv. product I can try?

Thanks.

[cntlaw]

thx for organizing it !
9 cars in total!
Guess HK13 will be full house 20+ cars!

[cool]

btw, the CHINESE Song names that you saw on the display can be done (tested on both) by using CD (MP3 CD, with Chinese Song File Names) or DVD (MP3 Audio DVD, with Chinese Song File Names). Just in case any of you wanted to know where its from.

So now i guess i dont need to get the After-Market iPod USB option la haha

Mothers Leather Cleaner and Leather Conditioner have best reputation in Hong Kong. Every Accessories shop know this. Best seller.
For those who have not got Mothers Leather Cleaner and Leather Conditioner, I am sorry for their BMW leather seats.

I don't suggest you mix Zaino and Mothers products applications. You can blend different products of the specific brand as each brand allows their own products to be mixed.
