Volkswagen Golf TSI: Opti-Coated

Good day,

Its already been 2months since i updated my blog. In this 2months its been a hectic month for me, i received alot of inquiries regarding coating, full detail, touch up and alot more. I guess i pushed myself really hard in this 2months. But, along the journey i need to thanks to Josh all the way from Ipoh & Erik who help me out on a Peugeot and Golf GTI, also not forget about KC for giving me some useful advice on a soft paintwork and Seech who lend me his Flex so i could manage to finish well on a black paint. Once again, thank you guys for helping me so much.


Alright, here i have is a brand new 3days old Golf TSI back in Febuary. This lady owner wants to get it coated with Opti-Coat. During inspection this car is in a very good condition, only have minor scratches in certain area, wax residue, tars and dirt on the lower skirt. First, the car was washed with OPC 1:4 and then decontaminant with PermaGlass and finally washed with ONR again. Lower skirt tars was removed with Osren Tar Remover, wheel was clean with OPC 1:3 with a detailing brush, old tire dressing was removed with Osren DFX.

Paintwork defects was removed with OHP + LC yellow and then finish with OHP again with double sided red foam. No pictures taken during the process. Later on wiped down with IPA all around, Opti-Coat was applied on the body and all windscreen. After applied, the body and windscreen are extremely hydrophobic, it repels dirt and also easy to maintain in future.
