He had all the answers, he said Dawn washing up liquid got the polish of the car back to bare paint.
I followed his words like a bible, he was very helpful, maybe he has switched to Facebook.
We have had some excellent people here who had excellent advice all the time, but nowadays as most subjects have been covered over and over things are a little boring, there is enough info here to write large books on oil and batteries and all of it could be reduced to the size of a couple of the earlier posts.
If you are applying touch up paint over real ceramic you are supposed to wipe the nick or stone chip with alcohol and/or lacquer thinner. Otherwise when painting large surfaces the sanding to rough up the surface works no matter what. If you are talking about the water-less wash and wax products then I can attest that I last used a product via the internet that looks great a year later but I put on 3 coats initially. You might find newer products are less expensive and work as well or better but I am sticking with what I used ......"SHINE ARMOR Fortify Quick Coat - Ceramic Coating - Car Wax Polish Spray - Waterless Car Wash & Wax - Hydrophobic Top Coat Polish & Polymer Paint Sealant Detail Protection" It costs $20 on amazon.
