"Layangman"...... isn't "layang" a Malay word meaning "Kite?" It's been 20+ years since I've used it.

Yes! So you speak Melayu?
I fly stunt kites, dual and quad lines for fun...hence the nickname.
I luv my rice rocket...

I have a Mitsubishi Galant 1992 GS, nothing special, but she's been holding up

. I've seen a video of the same car as yours on youtube and I think it's a pretty sweet car.

Yes, I used to be OK at Melayu. Born and raised in S'pore. I had to take Malay as a 2nd language. English is my main language. Saya budak Serani. Finished my GCE "O" Levels, served my 2 years NS (1979 to 1981), and came to the US in 1982. So whatever Malay I knew, I rarely used unless around my cousins. Which means my Malay now, kinda sucks. LOL. I have lots of relatives in S'pore, but I haven't been back since leaving. Gotta get back sometime and makan banyak.
There's another member here, who's also in S'pore. He and the S'pore car forum he's on, uses a lot of Duragloss products. What do you use on your car? Planning to expand with some Autogeek stuff?

You meant the one in the Japanese test circuit? Yes, that's a cool one.
You nickname is klumzypinoy, you've got Filipino blood? (sorry if I was wrong)

Hey...nice to know you were raised here! My Melayu is also "so-so", due to lack of use, enough to get buy, but not good enough for serious conversation. Bet you missed all those spicy Malay food huh??

Well, I love my car, but I can't spare too much time on it like washing cause its really time consuming and "sakit belakang" (back-ache). So now I use Purple Slice (sent by a friend in another business) as a gift. I am stuck on it since....as long as car is clean and dry, I just spray and wipe off for that deep gloss.

Previously I've tried so many type of sealants, carnauba wax...but in local weather, in a week or two, its back to sqaure 1, so might as well save the $$ and use a simple product that shines easily, saves time.
