    The product above is designed for removing light scratches and rejuvenating old PPF via machine polishing, you will not need this.
    The best advice is to talk to the guys who applied the PPF and ceramic coating, this way you will not invalidate your warranty.
    If using a pressure washer, DO NOT! get too close to the PPF especially near the edges as it may start to lift over time?
    If it's not that dirty, then simply use a good PH Neutral snow foam, foam her up, leave to dwell and rinse down, dry with microfibre drying towels.
    If really dirty hand wash after the snow foam with a good PH Neutral car shampoo.
    Once clean, now you can use the quick detailing spray or wax.
    Again speak to the guys who installed the PPF, but you should be able to use any natural or synthetic wax on top of the PPF/ ceramic.
    Lovely colour by the way!

    I’ve been using carpro reload for a while (after washing). It’s easy to work with and appears to keep a nice shine. Could be all placebo, however, after a week of chaos if you need bonding time in the garage with the car this will do it.

    $10,648 for a glaze/wax/coating. Unbelievable and absurd.

    what brand of ppf? Use a topper spray such as Jaxwax Graphene quick detailer.

    but basically you treat ppf just like you do paint except you dont polish it like paint.

    Hello guys, I have to decide: on my brand new Roma I will go for PPF. Is it recomended also ceramic coating on top of PPF? What about windshield protection foil?
