Personally I would like to thank Optimum Car Care's KC Yum for his magical work. His magic hands had done it once again. Last month I believe I was attacked by a BIG BOMB (aka bird's dropping :p ), unknownly it has been there for days.. I guess you guys know the consequences. I tried to remove it but to no avail. I had got no choice but to send to my regular car care center in Aman Suria. They are quite a reputable and established car care center... maybe not so detailed to be called a detailer YET :).. The boss checked and claimed that it's impossible to remove it. However as their member, I demanded him to try out..He asked his chief detailer (a Burmese 'nice' chap) to flex some muscles and kung-fu.. waited there and observed, then I got this feedback.. "tak boleh",.."betul tak boleh", then came the boss to tell me "it's oxidised, no way anyone can remove it and leave no stain mark".. Well, I was kinda disappointed.. I was thinking to an extent to re-paint but was advised not to since it's not so obvious. Hold on to the feeling, day after day, and following week sent my car for washing.. met the boss again, he asked whether I checked with anyone, I said "nope, not yet"... Then he said not even DiamondBright can remove it..wow, he seemed so confident...Then I found this Natural Born Detailer by the name of KC Yum... a nice easy going chap, more like a lecturer and no nonsense when talk about detailing..:rock: Unbelievable amazing touch, the MAKITA as if like a STORM-RIDER's sword.. his movement is gentle but effective. Job done in less than 5 mins (incl a simple 'no rinse' car wash)... I share this experience so that no bros should be taking for a ride by Half-Past-Six so called detailer...KC did take some pics... hopefully he got time to upload them here to share with some bros.Happy Father's Day to all FATHERS...Cheers and thanks for reading....To Healthier, Fitter and Leaner YOU..

Copy writer... "em kam tong" (Cantonese), "bu ngan tang" (Mandarin)... you have your natural talent, others do have theirs :p , this world there are no dumbos in all aspects...

DIY... emm sounds good but first a thorough detailing is needed (u know what I mean hehehe) before I take over the job :cool:

LOL... DA MAN AT WORK, so cant pick up your call LOL... or maybe the Makita over-rode the ringing tone :rolleyes: ... Come lah, one day we "fix" him up to have some detailing presentation.. Wanna start a thread to gather some bros.. let's make it min 10 pax for this free priceless presentation.. free for lesson but not for the products lah if you want :cool:
 
sorry bro

I was very busy..on fri i slept about 2 am...woke up at 6 plus & out by 7plus & started A a severe detaailing task & BTW i finish coating the car with seech was 4 pm.....had a quick detail on a 2010 cayman S & Merz 126....washing, cleaning the paint with power clean ...

didnt take any break &
rushed back to meet the rest as i postponed thge handling rotary session 2 hours laters...Sorry to those who waited & did 3 seperate detailing & finished about 7.30pm....the very next day I promised my overseas friends a quick detail,,,but hardly my arms could even lift up.....

& thats is the very reason i pass all my skill & kowledge to the rest ...I know i am not superman & this iron will retire one day ...before that let me empower others to do it....that was the reason Bro ario ...i did not joke much & constantly challenge u guys while u r at my place ....do over the limit & let no body stops u ....
cheers to all who attended & view this priceless thread
 
Morning KC, can I get your consent to start a new thread to gather a min of 10 pax to attend your FREE lesson in Car Dermatology Classes at the Body Paint Faculty? :cool:

Personally I believe lots of detailers in town are half-past-six or rather "pun kan pat leong" (Cantonese) or rather "Half Kati 8 Ounces"... but if job done by foreign worker, it's like an experiment to them, a learning path, taking our precious for a ride....

A Fitter & Leaner YOU....
 
good idea bro Arrio, i think most of them would be fighting to get the Ultimate SIFU- MR KC to touch their car....haha....

Personally, i cant lift up the rotary after 10mins.....haha...leave it to the SIFU lah....coz i still hv like a dozen of cars waiting their turn for SIFU to touch...

LOL.... you are so skinny :burnout: ... but no worry, practise makes perfect, that Makita will tone and shape you a little :) Now you are in the lineage of a great detailer :cool:
