Exterior detail

So I've been reading alot of post regarding ceramic coating and I have seen that I really dont need that. So I have decided that this is the steps I'm going to take.

1. OG Decontamination Soap which will remove all wax and oils.

2. Optimum Ferrex which removes all the iron in the clear coat.

3. NanoSkin Glide with a clay bar and NanoSkin AutoScrub Sponge to really clean up the surface.

4. Raise car

5. Know I need a sealer that will give a new shine was thinking about McKees 37 10 min paint sealant. (Any other suggestions)

The McKees will work well, or Meguires hybrid Spray wax. Go easy on nano skin, it’s a new car.

Yea Im getting the fine Nano skin the only reason im using the nano and clay bar is that the paint is not smooth and I feel alot of particles when I rub with thin plastic.

I've tried
meguiars hybrid ceramic wax (I dilute this 1:5)
Turtle wax seal & shine
Sonax brilliant shine detailer (diluted 1:3)

They all last for months.
Gloss is good.

Seems sonax bsd has the tightest beads after a month if you like that sort of thing.
I don't care about beading because it causes water spots after morning dew has formed and the sun shines bright and hot.

Hi, you first need to paint correct or polish the paint before applying ceramic coating. Once you have coating on, you can buy a ceramic spray like Meguiars or P&S Bead maker. It is a topper to like protect the coating and gives an added gloss.
