    Gimmie your two cents.

    Say you have a vehicle..be it big or small that you take to truck shows, and its ceramic coated. It gets driven to the shows. So its dusty/dirty and you want to clean it up before the show, but you dont have access to a hose or anything. Mind you these folks are not like us...miticulous about how and what use use to touch the paint. Most just use a few mf towles and a detail spray or similar.

    Gimmie your two cents on what you would reccomend said individuals on how to clean up the ride at a show. Be it products, or a process. Keeping it as simple as can be for the majority of non detail freaks

    Rememeber they aint gonna bust out a pump sprayer/ rinseless soulution and pre spray vefore preforming a rinseless...even though that might be a good aproach lol.

    Gimmie your two cents.

    I’d recommend using this.



    Edit: You say it’s ceramic coated?

    I wish I could remember better but a well known and respected detailer was talking about this EXACT situation in relation to HIGH END car shows

    Absolute freaks with perfect paint showing up at the show in a dusty ride and pulling out a crappy old microfiber and some Walmart WW and doing more damage to their paint than a sandstorm

    If they aren't smart enough to "bust out the rinse less" I'm not sure I have any advice for them

    I guess the best WW and plushest microfibers I could lay my hands on

    The ceramic aspect is the wildcard to me because I am so new to that situation

    I don't think it was Mike Phillips talking about this; I really wish I could remember who it was

    It is possible it was Larry Kosilla of AMMO NYC

    If it comes to me I will post up

    Hey Opie

    I just saw Mike's response so maybe it actually was him that was talking about show car guys damaging their paint trying to clean it up, and to just leave it alone

    Don’t shoot the messenger

    Gimmie your two cents.

    I think what you meant to say is people like us COULDN’T leave it alone

    Gimmie your two cents.

    But hopefully we would find the gentlest possible way to deal with it

    Keep it simple.



    I believe Gyeon makes a Ceramic Detailer which would probably be ideal to work with their coatings.
