What Is Ming?
Ming is neither a wax nor a coating. In fact, MING is more a process than a finish. The MING process enhances a vehicle’s painted finish by smoothing out its pits and valleys (sometimes called “pores”) where dirt, grime and pollutants collect. In a conventional treatment, waxes or polishes are rubbed or buffed into these pores to cover the paint. The shine comes from the ingredients of the wax or coating. With MING, the shine you see is the reflection of the actual paint surface, not wax or another coating.

Along with smoothing out the pits and valleys , the MING process toughens and hardens the paint making it resistant to the detrimental effects of the environment. The only upkeep necessary is a gentle, weekly washing. You will not need to wax or polish your vehicle for up to 3 years with proper care. The MING treatment will last to around 5 years

 

Sounds too good to be true! I’m hitting the BS button.

 

i am trying to get in contact with the owner of the local Ming shop for a sitdown on one of their packages
the guy i talked with yesterday was not aware of how 'delicate' the old Tacoma frames are

and i have not a clue about how respraying new undercoat under certain areas over the top of 22 year old undercoat that is a bit brittle will turn out going forward
