Washing:
Use a two-bucket wash method with a pH-neutral soap designed for ceramic-coated vehicles.
Avoid automated car washes; hand washing is best.
Drying:
Use a clean, plush microfiber towel or a touchless air dryer.
Avoid allowing water spots to dry on the surface—wipe them away promptly.
Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use any abrasive polishes, compound cleaners, or waxes on ceramic coatings.
Spot Cleaning: Quickly clean bird droppings, tree sap, or bug splatter to prevent etching into the coating.
Safe Towels: Always use high-quality microfiber towels to avoid scratches.
Boosters: Apply a ceramic coating maintenance spray (IGL Enhancer) or topper every 6-12 months to rejuvenate the hydrophobic properties and enhance gloss.
Decontamination: Perform a decontamination wash every 6 months using a ceramic coating safe iron remover to remove embedded contaminants.
Professional Inspection (NOT REQUIRED): Schedule a yearly inspection and maintenance service to check the coating’s durability and refresh as needed.
