I would suggest you to go for Turtle Wax - Rinsefree Wash & Wax (from SACO @ SAR 30) as I'm using it and just yesterday found out a good dilution ratio according to my sprayer. My garden sprayer is of 2 ltrs capacity, so I poured about 1.6 oz of rinsefree solution. FYI, I'm using waterless method so I tried this yesterday on my glass surface and it pretty well lubricated it when sprayed on the glass. My towels easily glided over the glass surface without me dragging it and lift of all the dirt.

I will try it on body panels tomorrow, if the weather is good. Because the weather here in Riyadh, is kinda annoying this year. Its a mixture of all of them (Sunny, Windy, Drizzle, Cloudy, Sandy) each day you get up and see one of those.

Edit: But right now you are having Megs GC Shampoo, so you try with that, otherwise go for what I mentioned above.

Thanks for the tip.

I have a new bottle of Megs GC Shampoo, which I hardly used (from SACO for Sr 40). So I prefer to use it.
I purchased 3 spray bottles today.

1x garden pressure spray (1.6l) to spray water to lubricate.
1x normal spray bottle (1.0l) for Megs CG usage.

I am planning to use multiple mf clothes for this job.

Well do tell, how it went? Also where you will be washing your car? I don't clean at home, because all people and haris pass by and stare plus it is always windy. So I usually goto parking space in malls :P, its quiet, its covered and very less people are there.

I have never been shy of my hobby. Many people stop by and wonder if I am the haris (Arabic word for Guard)... hahah, but I give a damn. I normally service my car weekends, so Fridays or Saturdays it is.

I would feel more embarrassed if I met my office colleagues by chance in a mall, while "I was washing cars".. lol... I will be washing outside my block as usual. Lets see how it goes. (H)

Good for you, as for me I don't like people around me when I'm cleaning my car. I like to be alone giving all my attention to the car. I have chosen one mall where I go everyday after office (basically I visit gym on 2nd floor) so after I finished my workout then I clean my car or some other cleaning task. Its around 9.00 pm by the time. And mostly offices car are parked in the basement, so I'm fine there.

Moreover outside my block its always wind blowing which eqauls to dust, so its difficult tackling the wind VS your spray solution and MF.

What happens if (God Forbid) a glass coated car receives a scratch? For example a bike wala or some raggar that you would usually compound to make it dull. Incase of a glass coating would it still be convenient to compound? And if yes, what about the eliminated coating from that specific portion?

the coating will be removed and you would have to reapply the coat to that specific portion
glass coats are damaged/removed if you use an abrasive product

I removed a sticker from my Civic's trunk the usual way, by scratchin' the hell out'a it
Pour some hot water on to it in sunlight, start scraping it off (I used my hands lol ). When the glue kind of residue is left, scrub with a wet cloth. Dry it off with a dry cloth (microfiber of course) then compound the area and clean it off. That's how I removed mine and it worked flawlessly. Remember, it requires a lot of muscle to do all this
This was my method, if the "Gurus" can help in a better way, please do

My car painter used a plastic scrapper a.k.a Plaskatt da nehla, thinner and compound. Was scared to do it myself but he did it good.
And my first ever sentence before anything else whenever i visit a 3S for service: MERI GARI PAR STICKER NAHI LAGNA CHAHIYAY WARNA MAI BILL NAHI DOON GA

hahaha is there any safe way to remove this sticker without scratching the paint?

These are for safe sticker removal (with a heat gun or hair dryer)

Metro keeps sub standard stuff, they typically have Yellow Formula1, Yellow Formula (fake brand), Kangaroo Cosmic, Kiwi, Guard, and max what they have is ArmorAll. Just saw Turtle Hard Wax there (out of some slightly better range) and that too only once. They don't have consistency or regularity in their supplies. You find one thing once and then it never hits their store again.
Basically their products are targeted at people who are coming for general shopping. They don't keep specialised stuff. The only few things i get from Metro are: Polishing foam pads, Microfiber cloths (sometimes not always), Microfiber Mitts and washing sponges. While stuff like good waxes and shampoos etc are usually not worth buying.
I once bought a Biloxxi Polishing machine from there and ever since then i have not been able to find it's spare bonnets not just from anywhere else but specially Metro Themselves. I don't think Metro management has even heard names like Meguiar etc. Therefore, good luck with visiting Metro for Car care products. Can't comment about HyperStar though.
