What coating did you go with?
A wash every few weeks.
If you bought a coating that suggests a maintenance product you didn’t buy a durable coating.

I use these coatings more for bling than added protection. Cquk3 doesnt need help but i look at a maintenance spray as adding a wax to a sealant. Doesnt needed but the wax makes it looks better. PA products add a nice glow to my coating.

Wash with a quality auto wash and dry with TW Hybrid Solutions Wet Wax. Simple.
If you really want/need to boost coating properties, use Wolfgang Uber SIO2 coating wash.

I too thought Coatings were supposed to do fine without anything other than washing.

They do but I kinda look at it like using a foam cannon:
- 1. It can`t hurt
- 2. It`s fun
As long as it entertains me, I`ll keep on squirting :lol:
Is the difference it makes real or only in my mind? Fortunately, my mind don`t much care about any actual realities, rather only what it wants to do!

Sure they do. But would so many Autopians really coat their personal vehicles if it meant they’re not allowed to touch the paint with some sort of LSP for 18-36 months? Sounds agonizing.

1 coat or 2? Was there much left in the bottle after?

You can keep it in the family and go with either of these.
Any car wash will do. I would consider CarPro Reset.

I second Guz’s CarPro Reset suggestion.
Here’s one additional consideration, it’s very light, impossible to streak and not very substantial but it will maintain the newer BF coating look I’m guessing.
