On 6-June-2013, I drove all the way from Seremban to Kota Damansara to give my 2005 Honda City IDSI a car spa by Maximus (FB). I'm taking the promotion package RM88 and top up RM162 for rear window water repellent + crystal cut polish & waxing.
My primary objective is to remove the front and rear windscreen watermark, yellowish headlamps and Nano Mist treatment (claim to kill bacteria in the car, YouTube).
The car was not treated nor protected by any wax or sealant since born, the water mark on the rear windscreen was terrible, you hardly can see a thing through it especially on night and raining day. The charge in Seremban is more than RM200, Maximus price is very low in fact, does it do a good job or cheap-thing-no-good? Let's find out.
The spa process started at about 11AM and finished at about 2PM and here is the end result:
 |
| Crystal clear and no more yellowish. |
 |
| Like a mirror (the vinyl is not part of the package). |
 |
| Before: full or watermark. |
 |
| After: like a mirror. |
 |
| Before: lot of swirl mark. |
 |
| After: reduce swirl mark. |
 |
| Before: it is similar like this (photo from another car), full or water mark and dust. |
 |
| After: Full HD view. Although very close inspection can spot some stubborn watermark, I have no complain at all. |
 |
| Clear reflection. |
 |
| Like new. The engine bay cleaning is not part of the package, there was many customer and maybe has messed up their workflow. |
After all the good comment, now let's talk about area that need improvement. The shop owners are very friendly and has asked me to inspect the car not less than 5 times, but I purposely did not inspect in full force otherwise I will have nothing to write. Here are some of the areas they missed out.

Despite there are areas for improvement, I'm very pleased with their service and the reasonable price. The owner is very friendly and take complaint with open mind and fix immediately without question ask. I will go back again if the timing is right and will also recommend to my friend. It will be best if they offer shuttle service to 1U :)
