I had a fired do our white Malibu last month. It was on my to do list, but injuries have kept me out of most maintenance lately. I did my GTI myself. Decon, two step with 3D One. Took longer than expected due to Cottonwood tree sap. Put Meguiar's hybrid paint coating on it to finish. After over four months it looks like the week I did it. For the friendly rate of $500, he did our Malibu decon and polish, Feynlab 3-year coating. The white paint looks better than new.
I just saw a vehicle that interested me, and might make my Florida drive next month more comfy. So I'm testing out the trade in on my GTI.
