Hi I applied Uber Spray Coating yesterday and car will need a wash today. I have heard best to leave couple of days before washing. Keep in mind car gets Waterless Washes only.

Thanks

Why does it "Need" a wash?

It's had a service and been a bit wet road wise and dust and marks on the paint etc.

Not sure what to say, maybe you should have timed you coating a bit better based on where /why/when the car had to be...
I'd do a wash and redo the coating, make sure you give it the proper cure time

I’d leave it dirty for a few more days then wash it.

Yep you are right should have done it week before
What is the proper cure time for this product?

Even though I only use waterless washes?
It also had a light drizzle on it is that ok?

as simple as this product is to use just add another coat after your wash

Would I do more damage waiting say 4 days to do a waterless wash?

Coating manufacturers recommend not using cleaning products within a week but if you’re using a ph neutral waterless your might be fine, maybe better than getting water spots. And then you can also add another coat if you think this wash is degrading the initial coat.

I use Uber Rinseless Wash Concentrate mixed for Waterless. Our water is currently off due to burst pipe.
Probably back on later
Thing is I'm in doubt if I can wash my towels after wash.
Have other towels but not as good/fluffy as the ones I bought from Autogeek. So could end up with marring etc.
If I get water spots what will be outcome will it effect the car clear coat?

Thanks

If you’re left with water spots and they don’t come off chemically then you need to polish again and reapply the coating.
