    Use the spray sealant once a month then.

    I do think WG CSC would be the best topper option for your situation, but the SiO2 Spray Sealants aren’t a bad choice by any means. But they are loaded with some polymers it seems, so using too frequently likely causes buildup that could be inhibiting your shine. Others may not have this problem, to me every paint is a bit unique.

    Since its a detail spray and not a spray coating, I would say absolutely.

    If it needs it..remember every time you polish, you're removing clear coat.

    Polishing, including with One Step it any other AIO will remove the coating you put on the car and replace with sealant. I would highly recommend not polishing your coating at 9 months unless something goes wrong.

    What kind of coating did you put on 3 mths ago? Did you machine polish the car? Thats where all the shine is really, polishing. Took my relatively new car to another level using sonax perfect finish.

    If you want to apply something to your car every wash look for a coating topper like carpro elixir. One example of hundreds, i'm not familiar with wolfgang, they most likely have a topper.

    Personally, i use a soi2 infused waterless/rinseless wash - think carpro ech2o - product has a drying aid for most washes and once a mth or so a top up with a spray sio2 sealant.

    Work smarter not harder. HSWW After each wash used as a drying aid, will maintain that finish.

    ouch, you used a AIO before a full blown ceramic? not to knock on blackfire, wolfgang and others but it really seems the koreans have the ceramic coating market almost cornered. gtechniq, igl, gyeon, kamikaze and a few others are not Korean.
