    For those that have coatings

    How many of you that have coatings never use a topper of any means, not even in your wash media? I'd like to know who has a coating and never boosts it in any way at all.

    I'd also like to know if you do have a coating and you do boost it what do you boost it with? Do you stay in the family or use other brands boosters or soaps?

    Not a true coating, but I use Hydro blue maintained with the Trademark Extender spray wax. I have used many combos over the years, and this one is amazing!! Wash wise, I just use Megs hyperwash.

    I have coatings on all my cars, and I wash and occasionally use re-load. I wash with hyperwash, blow dry and call it a day.
    That’s it.

    How often would you say you use reload and what coating do you have on?

    Re: For those that have coatings

    I apply toppers to my personal coated vehicles just to test out different products.

    I don't like to apply toppers to client's cars that are coated since the topper will have different characteristics than the coating and I want to see how the coating is behaving or lasting.

    For client's cars that are coated, I like to wash with Carpro Reset or Megs Hyperwash. If I do a rinseless, it will be McKee's N-914 since it doesn't leave anything behind.

    Re: For those that have coatings

    I have been using Polish Angel Viking and washing either with Chemical Guys Honey Dew, or Polish Angel Glisinate. And during the cold weather or dust just been using Car pro Echo 2 ww. Car has never seen a car wash. I have gotten about a solid 13-14 months with great beading. Spring time defiantly will be recoating with the same.

    Re: For those that have coatings

    Used a few different coatings last winter on some fleet vehicles at work. I topped them with the associated toppers immediately after application but after that they never recd any subsequent attention, not even a wash.

    Personal cars get topped with Booster from same product collection via drying aid after wash.

    Only true coatings or are sealants included?

    Well...just in case...

    My personal car is treated with WG DGPS and motorcycle with Opti-Seal.

    Both are regularly topped with a QD made of ECH2o & Reload mixture.
