Would like to get my moms 2016 CR-V detailed for mothers day. It doesn`t get much mileage put on it, and mostly sits in her parking lot baking in the California sun. I take it to the car wash every month or two just to get the cobwebs and dirt off. The paint is fine all things considered. It doesn`t have the typical Honda faded spots or bleached window trim etc. The headlights could be a bit more clear, but no major issues unless you get right up to them or feel the surface.
Any detailing would obviously involve a full clay and polish, but as for products to have applied, not quite sure. With the thing sitting in the sun all the time, and being drive-thru commercial washed 10 times a year, would there be a specific type of wax or suggested amount of coats I could request from a detailer to keep it from turning to sandpaper finish later rather than sooner? I have a bottle of Perl I use on my car I can hit the fades black trim with.
My personal car has ceramic, but I am not in the mood to waterless wash a big SUV in the sun every two weeks, and leaving it baking in the sun from what I understand wuld kill ceramic faster than wax coats.
