Some people might consider their car as just a means of transport, but Vincent Liew thinks otherwise.


He believes that a car represents a driver’s personality and therefore merits meticulous care.


Liew runs a chain of automotive detailing centres that uses what is described as state-of-the-art glass coating product called the J-Glaze Glass Coating.


J-Glaze specialises in the application and maintenance of this special single-component, inorganic coating that forms a thin membrane which results in a glossy look for the car’s paintwork as well as making it resistant to weather effects.


Application of J-Glaze Glass Coating takes an average of two to three days, depending on the size of the vehicle.

Liew stresses that the quality of a product only contributes 30% to the car’s finished look, as skilled workmanship is needed to assure proper application of the coating onto the paint surface of the car.


Liew used food as an analogy.


“Some food taste great, while other food is terrible.


“It all depends on the skills that were put into producing the end product”, says Liew.


Liew’s team removes each wheel and marks them to ensure they are re-installed properly.


This ensures that drivers do not have to re-align the wheels later.


Liew provides a three-year maintenance programme for cars with J-Glaze Glass Coating.

This includes a visit to J-Glaze once every three months for a wash, routine maintenance and treatment to keep the car looking its best.


Each visit will cost only RM30.


The J-Glaze flagship outlet is located in Ampang.


Other outlets are located in Kota Damansara and Subang Jaya.
