Gotta say though, this thread discussion and the extensive list of products and where to put them, are subjective (IE, subject to the opinion of the observer from their experience versus subjective which has quantifiable data and repeatable testing methodologies to prove the data, meaning "Your Mileage May Vary" (YMMV)), to say the least. Another factor to consider is value: performance versus cost and compatibility: what particular brand/type of spray may look good on or provide expected protection/water-beading time-wise on one coating may not do so on another. I assume that for most of you detailers, that you would stick to one product manufacturer for both the coating and the maintenance spray to avoid any possible incompatibility problems or compromise of the coating performance/durability. That is assuming that a car-care product manufacturer has tested their ALL their sprays with ALL their coatings to verify this.
Not trying to "douse the flames of discussion" or "add more fuel to the fire"; just "food for thought". If you`ve spent the time, effort, and expense of using a coating on your vehicle, wouldn`t you want the right maintenance product for it and not one that might compromise it???
