    New coating - first wash - Reset or something else?

    As the title says....I recently put Gyeon MOHS on my truck......first coating I've ever used. According to the instructions, I should not wash it for two weeks, which comes up this Saturday. As luck would have it, the temps are also supposed to rebound to near 60 degrees (from 19 Monday morning). My question is.....and forgive this coating newbie if it's a stupid question.....should I use Reset or something else for the first wash. Currently on the shelf are Reset, Megs HyperWash and Auto Fanatic 007 Snow foam. Which of these should I use, or should I order something else?

    As a side note....I'd recommend MOHS to anyone. It was very easy to use, and it will be well maintained, so hopefully I get the max life out of it.

    I've been using Reset for every wash the last 7 months. I really like Reset. Some only use it for when a stronger wash is needed. I prefer every wash. Hyperwash is also great and would work as well.

    Yep any of the 3.

    Reset is actually PH wise less aggressive than HyperWash but is known to be a better cleaner.

    For coatings Reset and Hyperwash were my go-tos for regular washes.

    I don't use anything. My thought is if a coating needs a booster I might as well stick with wax.
