well guys the paint protection market is a very confused and full of chaos in india. every polishing centre and dealership is selling TEFLON coating! its very interesting to know how every one is selling TEFLON coating. how the word TEFLON got spread all over india. its like this>> well there was a time when all the vehicles looking like jeeps were called jeep in india, and some vehicle looking like a tempo were called tempo and so on... similary the TEFLON coating was the first to be introduced in india and the word spread. so every one cashed on the word TEFLON. right now at the moment Diamondbrite is most known paint protection is being offered to indian vehicle owners. there are others in the pipeline that are being evaluated by different OEMs in india. 3M as such has no paint protection and nor does Meguiar's, they just have sealants which last for 3-6 months ONLY! TEFLON and other genuine paint protection are made up of two stage sealants which are applied on the body paint without usage of any buffer or polishing machine.( machines are used only for rubbing and polishing)! a new or an old car is first prepared by enhancing its paint work and when its shiny and glossy and free of dirt, contamination, swirll marks, the two stage sealants are applied on top of the paint work to seal the paint. i have worked for both 3M & Meguair's and currently working with a UK based paint protection manufacturing company. 3M is good for a professional body shop repair and Meguair's is good on DIY side. please understand the difference between polishing, rubbing, compounding, buffing, glazing, waxing and TEFLON coating (paint protection). polishing companies or dealerships in india just do the simple rubbing compounding on the car in front of the customer and show an amazing result to him to convince him to shell out big amouts. one should do rubbing compounding and polish to their cars once a year and use a DIY wax with UV properties once a month, thats enough to protect your paint work against weather. remember no paint protection or TEFLON will protect againsts scratches!! though there are few PPF (paint protection films) being offered by 3M, llumar, Solar Guard etc. somes times called Clear Bra! there is one more solution which offers a 10 year warranty for protection against scratches, its called Armorauto : Impact Headlight Savers . its better than a PPF. TEFLON protects the paintwork against UV rays which causes it to fade and also against oxidisation. well i can go on and on about paint care, but anyway if anyone ever wants any advise and need any solution for their paint problems, they can PM me. |
