candy red car paint

What makes it so evocative and a head turner everytime we spot one? Read on. In recent times, Mazda is known for their KODO design philosophy - a philosophy that gave rise to the 2020 Mazda 3, also known as the world’s most beautiful car.

We’ve all been there, squeezing through a tighter-than-usual spot in a car park and ending up scratching the paint on your car. But before you send your car to be fixed by a professional, did you know that you can attempt to fix it yourself? Depending on the severity of the damage, you may be able to remedy that right at home, without the need to go to a specialist. To remedy your paint problem, first you need to find out how deep the scratches are. Typically, a car’s exterior has four layers –

Honda Malaysia has maintained consistent sales growth for the past 5 years, an average of 30% increase from 2014 to 2018.

Leaving your car parked under the hot sun seems like a harmless thing to do. What’s the worst that could happen? Just a hot cabin, right? The truth is, the sun can damage your car after extended periods of exposure and this hurts the resale value of your car. Just like our skin, the car’s paint, rubber parts, and upholstery can only withstand that much sun. Things dry up and age faster when exposed to UV rays. Visible effects of sun damage are: Oxidation and fading of automobile paint Discoloura

A knight in shining armor is a man who has never had his metal truly tested. Likewise, a pristine looking car is a car that hasn’t been driven much. While the former may be an inspirational phrase, the latter is a sign of a good used car. When shopping for a used car, it is normal to see dings, scratches, or the occasional putty. Small damages are good for bargaining, but a used car with major damage is much better avoided. Whether or not to go on with the purchase is entirely up to you. This en
