hey all,

long time since I've been back here and boy how things have changed eh? clay mitts, iron remover, ceramic coatings being accessible for everyone? whole new world heh.

anyways I'm finally going to get a chance to do my own car full stop from. start to finish. I'm doing a full detail starting with a strip wash, iron remover, clay, two stage polish and coating.

question:

given I'll be polishing with menzerna 2400 (formerly SIP) and 3500 (formerly 106ff), am I okay to use Hydro Blue concentrate afterwards 4:1 OR given that I've done all the work already, should I apply a traditional ceramic coating via suede+sponge and use Hydro blue afterwards?

I'm excited to try hydro blue but want to know if it'll play and layer with a traditional coating?

for the first time ever I won't be using a sealant or wax in favour of coating or hydro blue so that's why I'm asking.

Put on a traditional coating first and then use Hydroblue as a maintenance topper every few months.
