Guys, need some suggestions regarding the best place to get PPF done in Delhi.

I’m from Kota, Rajasthan, and I’ll be travelling to Delhi this week. I’m planning to get PPF done on my Innova Hycross.

Please suggest a reliable and trustworthy detailing studio.

Someone has already suggested detailing daddy to me .

I recently went for my 6th month servicing and identified 2 scratches on both the sides.

These are extremely light hence I couldn’t catch them at all, but still, NGL, felt like someone scratched my heart. I have Kylaq Prestige in Lava Blue.

Decided to get PPF done that day and now I am moving to Bangalore for a job opportunity in late October. I am confused if I should get it done here itself or in Bangalore.

Pune 3M quoted 1.09L sometime back.

Would Bangalore 3M be cheaper? As in does anyone know the rates there?

Hey Detailers!

I am looking for product and process recommendations for my PPF coated red color car.

I wash my car myself once every month as I dont use it frequently and it is in a covered car park. Although covered, that's a lot of dust for which I use a Jopasu duster, which gets dirty very quickly.

And there's no provision to use a water hose. Due to close proximity to neighbouring cars, I am not too inclined to doing a foam wash either. So, as I see it, my only way is to fetch buckets of water 3-4 times and wash it with a shampoo.

Please suggest a good shampoo, nothing too expensive. And a good wax, if thats needed for a PPF coated car. Because I really loved the shine on my car after maintenance which I didn't get after a wash at DetailingMafia.

Also, do I need separate products for the windshield? Alloy wheels?

I have all the microfiber cloths I need for the next 2 years.

I’m trying to understand the actual difference between regular interior cleaning and professional interior detailing. For example, is interior detailing just a more thorough cleaning, or does it involve additional processes such as deep cleaning carpets and upholstery, leather conditioning, stain removal, dashboard treatment, and odor removal?

For those who regularly maintain their cars, what services do you consider essential for interior detailing, and how often do you usually get it done? I’d also be interested to hear whether professional detailing makes a noticeable difference compared with a normal interior cleaning.

Bangalore folks, has anyone used doorstep car wash services like Rapid Car Spa, DriveU, etc?
I’m looking for a reliable monthly subscription and wanted to know which one has the best wash quality, consistency, and customer support. Would appreciate any real experiences or recommendations.

Hi all! Any suggestions on who does the best quality job with PPF in Navi Mumbai? Need to get it done for my black Camry.

People who got it done 2-3 years ago, do you guys notice any drop in gloss?

Hi everyone,

I am completely new to the car detailing world and would love some guidance from the experts here. I recently bought a oxide Tata Punch.ev.

Initially, I ordered some budget WaveX products blindly without doing much research. But after reading a few comments on this sub about how budget brands might be too harsh for a fresh ceramic coating compared to global brands, I immediately cancelled my WaveX Iron Remover order. I am now looking for safe, good iron remover suggestions that won't degrade my coating.

Here is what I currently have in my garage inventory:

Pressure Washer

Turtle Wax Ceramic Shield (already applied on the car)

WaveX Foam Wash Shampoo (Green)

3M Cream Wax (Though I assume I shouldn't use this over the ceramic coating?)

Turtle Wax Luxe Leather Cleaner & Conditioner

WaveX Water Spot Remover Gel

WaveX Plastic Restorer

Duster from MotorOctane

I live in very small city called Bikaner, which means my car constantly battles:

Extremely hard groundwater (water spots are a nightmare here).

Intense desert sun and heat.

Heavy dust and occasional bird droppings.

Since I am dealing with such hard water and want to safely maintain my ceramic shield, what other products (a safe iron remover, better pH-neutral shampoos, or quick detailers) would you consider an absolute must-have to complete my specific setup?

Any tips on the safest washing routine for my climate would be hugely appreciated. Thanks in advance!

I follow the following ritual every 2 weeks

Car details - skoda kylaq ( Dark grey )

- Prewash (koch chemie green star 1-20 dilution)

- mitten wash with koch chemie nano magic shampoo

- dry with big microfiber

This gives a decent gloss and slickness.

But I am looking for a deeper shine.

Should I use the koch chemie protector wax on top of the nano magic shampoo?

Any other products like the soft99 fusso coat wax ?

Car is just 4 months old. so I don't want to go for professional polishing.

Hi guys, I have recently purchased XUV 7XO stealth black color

And i know that over the period of time swirl marks come up even if i go for foam and pressure wash, or bird shit, etc etc

And i agree that maintaining black car is not an easy job

I saw multiple reddit posts where people have said getting ppf is not worth it as its too expensive and one should be good to go with ceramic coating

I plan to use the car for the long term.

Hence i want to retain the black color as much as possible 

I am happy to shell 1L but not more for the ppf work.

If you guys can share your experience and suggestions would be really helpful in taking the right decision instead of regretting it later.

Few things i wanted to know specifically,

1. Which brands of ppf and other things like anti yellow, etc,  i should check?

2. What all points i should check once ppf is done?

3. Does the cost of ppf cover interiors too?

4. Do i need to separately get the sun protection coating for glasses like windows, front and rear windshield, sunroof? 

5. Which detailing studio(delhi ncr) is reliable since it depends on the team doing ppf work more than the ppf brand?

Thanks!
