hey peepz...i just got a new 07 coupe auto diamond black w. navi. so far with the car is great!! since i bought my car i have been takin care of it so like my baby(A) i work in a gas station(Esso) and i get free carwashes and i wash it almost 3-4 times a week. for ppl who has the same car as mine, 07 coupe auto w.navi, did u guys have any problems since u got it? so far i havent had any problems...well, ill post picz of my new car soon...ezZ G drivers...

 

I wouldn't take my car through a gas station car wash even if it was free

 

why...my carwash is touchless...would it damage anything?? so far i havent had any problems...

 

yea i rather do the car washes myself... at home.. with microfiber towels that did not touch other cars... yes

 

carwashes in general use pretty harsh detergents to clean the car, especially touchless ones because they don't actually scrub the car. Say goodbye to any wax/sealant on your paint

 

wow...i never knew that...so itz better if i wash it myself aii...any ideas what kind of things i should use on my car?...just normal soap and dry it? what about polishing the car...would that cause any damage to my wax/sealent on my car's paint?

 

Wow, have fun with your 07 coupe, the paint will be destroyed by next month if you keep on that pace.

Just use meguiars and SEARCH in the detailing forum.
O yea, drift the **** out of the car, it's great fun.

 

Meguiars aii?? kk...sick...i have them in my work place and i can get them for free i was planning to use Turtle Ice which my friend recommended me to use...any ideas which prodect is better?

 

go do some reading in the detailing forums, its been discussed ALOT

 

Yea washing your car 3-4 times a wk is a guaranteed way to wear down the sealant. If you continue to wash it this many times, I suggest waxing it every month. After a couple of months you won't want to wash it 3-4 times a wk, let alone once a month.

 

hmm..i wouldnt do it if someone payed me

btw, is diamond black a new color that i'm unaware of?

 

congats on the new car man, maybe some pics since it seems you have a new color

 

well...it is like shiny black colour and all my friends says itz a diamond black colour...i got the car from my parents for my b-day and i dunt kno what the colour is called...ill upload some pics when i get the chance...
