One Love: My Honda Brio SMT Exclusive Edition

[Mathew]

Hi Robs,

I am using Toyota paint Protection on my vehicle, applied by Nippon Toyota, Kallamaserry. A thick layer of protective materials are used. It is useful, and costing less than 5000.

I have TEFLON paint protection on this vehicle. Use any paint protection as the base layer, and add-on on the corner as mentioned by Ajay Sreedhar.

Hello Bro.,
Well noted. Teflon coating is done from the Honda Showroom itself. Now I am in search for the white Bumper protectors.
Next I will do the under body coating from 3M Cochin.

^^ My advice will be a big "NO" to teflon coating. They last for a week at most. With rainy season around the corner, it might not stay on the car for a week also. BTW why ddi you find a need of a teflon coat ?

+1 to that.
teflon is a hogwash.
There is no such thing as teflon coating ( for cars ) atleast in india.

buy a good wax/sealant ,apply it every month or so and you should be OK

Hi Ajay,
Teflon coating was done as a freebie from the showroom and I was not aware of its durability.

Hi Petroholic,
Can you suggest some good wax/sealant?

 

[Ajay Sreedhar]

Turtle hard wax or any meguair product will be more than good

The following is the response from FASTTRACK.
Q. Is there any particular advantage for the painting if teflon coating is done? I heared that dealers insist to do it when we buy a new vehicle just for their profit.Is it true? plz reply..
Ans: good teflon coating is good...it seals the minute pores in the painting and acts as a protective coveringfrom sunlight,heat etc..the colour fading will be less....but now a days all r doing it..cant tell about its quality...

I agree to the answers provided above according to my experience.

Hi Petroholic,
Can you suggest some good wax/sealant?

the list is endless-
you can try-
collinite 845
megs NXT tech wax 2.0


Try to buy a good product once. Although it will be slightly expensive but will last you a lot.
Also my advice would be to get a sealant / wax which lasts for atleast a month in your conditions.Apply it every month ( if required ) and you are good to go.

And dont waste money on formula 1/armor all / even turtle wax which are commonly available but not good at all.

I am totally agree with the Petroholic, as formula 1/armor all products are cheap in cost but they didn't last for even 15 to 20 days also so we need to do it again and again for a short period of time which is very painful so get the products like Meguair, collinite 845.

Hi Robs, any update on the above? Did you get Bumper protectors? Under body coating suggested to do before the rainy season.

Hello Bro.
Sorry for the delayed response.
I didnt get the bumper protectors. I have came back to Qatar after vaccation, so searching it online, but no BP is available in white which suit Brio.
I have asked my friend to do the under protection from 3M Cochin and will do when he is free.

Can any one tell me, whether I can use Honda Amaze side Beading on my Brio.
I found white color side beading only for honda amaze (no brio) from ebay.
I have not seen both brio and amaze together. Please suggest if any one has tried it. Ebay link is given below,
CAR Side Beading FOR Honda Amaze White Colour | eBay

Hey robs don't go for side beadings. Your car looks awesome as it is. Side beading or any bumper protectors will spoil the look.

Hi Bro.
It is not like the normal universal side beading, please find the below pic from one of our fellow TAI-GER and suggest. It is the OE product and comes with the 3M Tape for 1500 Rs. I am still in search for the bumper guard, but didn't find my BRIO one in Ebay.
