Sonax car polish day - feeler

Hi guys

I had my SX polished by Sonax while we were at the Castrol Extreme Auto show. The results are spectacular! The paintwork looks like new, apart from all the chips, etc. They removed all the swirl marks! I washed my car afterwards - the water just beaded off the surface. I just rinsed it off using a brush and it looks like it was washed, waxed, and buffed! They guarantee the results for at least 6 months.

They said that if we can get together about 5 cars or so, they will come out to wherever we are, and polish all the cars. They normally charge R450 per car, but said they can give a discount of about R100 per car. We could get together at a spot where there is an electrical outlet, and have a braai while they polish the cars.

Who's keen? Should we wait till after winter? 🙂

Hi My car really needs some help in this dept. Ive neglected to take car of the body and it needs a good polish buff until I can get it resprayed.

They probably gonna charge me full price for the work but Im mos def in!!!!!!

did they use a machine to do the polishing?

how long does it take?

yes they do but the guy is like a perfectionist.Takes about 2 hours or so..But for a 100bucks you will not find better anywhere

oh - i thought it was R100 discount on R450???

cos i dont mean to be rude, but for R350 i can get some nice meguiars kit, and sort out both the cars?

maybe it is 350?maybe i miss understood.Still well worth it even at R500

Yes, it's R350. Yes you can buy Meguiars products and do it yourself, if you have the inclination, but it's a LOT of work. Sonax uses a product that fills in the scratches rather than removing a large amount off the top layer. This is their big differentiator, as explained by the guy who applied it.

Im in also toby-my car also need some TLC inn that category. And veecee you know how much I like to watch people work on my car!

Really Cool idea Toby should be fun!

These products are awsome, you can get them at any builders warehouse! Extreme polish and wax 3 is the best for older cars, with weatherd paint, work wonders with original paintwork. They also have colour specific Wax ie white,red,black,blue ,silver and these come with wax crayons to fill in small chips!

yeah dude. its kinda creepy!

I'll set it up for one of the weekends in September. I'll need a deposit from everyone that's coming, will let you know the details closer to the time.

Hey Toblerone.
Can I come with my Ford Fezz 1.4i 😳

Do they do bikes too?

WooHoo 🙂 Yea I'm pretty sure they do bikes, and infact I'll be going in my S2k because my SX is already polished! 🙂 So bring whatever vehicle you want polished...

Just an update: I was contacted by Kevin Naidoo, Sales Director of Sonax SA. He very kindly offered us his headquarters in Randburg as a venue. He can accommodate up to 80 cars, and depending on numbers, he will get the whole team out to us so that the cars get done quick quick! Alternatively, he also offered us the outlet in Malibongwe drive that can accommodate about 15 cars.

This is looking like an awesome event! I think we should set a date - how about 29th of August? How many can make it?

Come to think of it, let's make it a spring-time thing - 5th September - how many can make that date?

5 september is cool,im in

il be there 🙂

That's great.
I'm busy sorting out my cars cylinder head & should be ready by this weekend.
So I'm in for the 5th as well.
