Thanks for the response! I had definitely considered how the maintenance could affect the coating’s longevity and had tried to steer him more towards just letting me throw a sealant on it every 6...
I just wrapped up my 3rd polish and ceramic coat using Cquartz UK3.0. Personally, I love the ease of use with CQ and the gloss and water behavior are top notch. I’m still just a weekend warrior and...
Thank you both for the opinions. I’ve encountered many things over the course of my life that I’ve made worse by trying to fix. Maybe this is one of those things that’s better now than it will be...
Hey guys, sorry to bump my old thread, but I am getting ready to coat my truck in the next couple weeks and I’m wondering again what I should try to do about this. What I did after posting this was...

I'm new to ONR as well. I have about 5 washes under my belt now using microfiber towels and now their Big Red Sponge. ONR really is handy for quick washes. I'm finding that rinseless washing is much...
Thank you for all of the tips. This forum has already been a great resource for me to read and learn. Looking forward to contributing some helpful information once I have any knowledge to offer.
Quick ONR wash finished with Bead Maker. Today was my first time trying out my Big Red Sponge and I have mixed feelings about it. Definitely much faster than using micro fibers but it will take some...
Thank you. I have been watching a ton of videos and reading a bit about the different pads. There are so many. I have already purchased a 5" velcro backing plate. :xyxthumbs:
I've been a lurker on this forum for awhile and finally decided to join. I am new to detailing, but it is quickly becoming one of my favorite hobbies. I have always taken care of my...
