I've seen Souls without them and there is a considerable difference from chips to no chips in the paint. Our dealer puts them on all of the new Kia cars that come through PDI as it really protects the paint and helps in resale value. But any tire shine would work for it to.ģ. We use special stuff that is formulated to brighten the black and make it shine. This is what we are told to do when a car comes in for PDI.Ģ. Will post when i get them.Ĭlick to expand.I work at a Kia dealer and detail Kia cars and have a 2010 Black Shadow Dragon.ġ. It looks like it is going to quit raining and allow me to wash her and get decent pictures this weekend.

I thought about getting some of the stuff that clings to windows to put on it to try to keep it nice. I have noticed the nicks on the panel from the seat belt- GRRRRR. What do you use to keep it pretty? Suggestions on keeping the red from fading or turning colors?Ħ. When should I do it? 3 Months, 6 months, once a year, 3750 miles?ĥ.

When do I get my oil changed? I know it says 7500 miles, I have coupons for free oil changes and tire rotations every 3750 miles for 10 appointments or 3 years at the kia dealership 30 miles away. I had my Sentra for 5.5 years and had 19500 miles on it. Oil and engine stuff- I don't drive much other than around town. Tires- Do you have the nitro and is it work the cost to change it (less than $100 but only one place in town does it and not the Kia dealership 30 miles away.Ĥ. I had them on my Sentra and hated them in the snow, but never noticed how it kept the stuff from spewing up until I don't have them.Ĥ. Are they worth it? Order the Kia or find some non-kia? How do you keep the non-painted rocker panels (the black ones on the sport) and the bumpers and all of the pieces and parts pretty and "shiny-ish"? Basically how do you keep them from getting dull and ucky compared to the paint?ģ. Do you wax, what kind and how often? Thoughts on procedures.Ģ. Even though it only has ~67,000 miles and hasn't seen a winter since 2005 the finish on the headlights is going fast and needs to be redone.1. I'm also going to have to do the Scion this year. To be honest, I can't wait to get the Suby back on the road since it's a winter car, when the sand and salt really wreck headlights.

A summer afternoon in full on sunlight is enough to do the trick. It is triggered by UV light, so you should have a UV source to "cure" the paint. But again, the headlights were heavily yellowed and sandblasted from use, I gave them the same treatment and then hit them with the SEM, and the reflectiveness of the lenses just lit up the room when the sun hit them. I also did my '96 Subaru, but the car has been parked since shortly after doing it because we found a hole in the roof caused by one of the screws in the roof rack, so it's been in a garage since June. I scrapped the van when I bought the Accent since I have too many cars hanging around. But when I hit them with the SEM they gleamed as good as new. They were nice and clean after being heavily yellowed and sanded to a fog by 30 years on the road. First with ~600 grit paper, then with 1500 grit paper, and then with a high speed foam buffing. Welllll.the one car I did the headlights with that I was driving was my '92 Grand Caravan, and I only put ~1500 miles on it after refurbishing the headlights, but. Has anyone used this.Would love to hear thoughts,good,and/or bad. The stuff looks pretty darn good,so,I will give it a shot. Yesterday,there was a guy at Cotsco doing a demonstration on IBIZ products and I bought it. It did take more muscle to remove the Maguiars IMO. Is it night and day? I think it shines more but,its too close to call and I am going off memory from a few months ago. Would love to hear what some of you are using,especially the detailers out there.This applied to all parts of the cars exterior body, tires,interior dash,leather seats,cloth,and even the engine compartment.Īlso,if there are any tips for alternate products that work as well or better than a dedicated product,let's hear those too.įor the record,for wax,I have been using Turtle Was,but,went to Maguiars Wax which I think I like better. Not really looking for what is perceived to be the best as that is subjective.
There are a LOT of products out there pushed on the public touting their prioduct to be the superior product.
