Interior and exterior cleaning products for car with ppf and ceramic coating
Hi guys, I just got my car in brooklyn grey, and I had front end ppf + rear bumpers and ceramic coating on the entire car. I need some advise regarding the right way/products to keep the car looking brand new. Interior is sensatec. So far this is what I'm leaning towards.
Exterior: -General regular soap wash for exterior with microfiber cloth -Sonax polymer Netshield topper(advise on frequency) Wheels: -Wash wheels with brush and Chemical Guys Diablo gel cleaner - Exoforma Permashine tire coating Interior seats/dash: -Chemical guys interior cleaner Glass surfaces: ?? Steering wheel: ?? Kindly let me know any recommendations for the specific parts including type of brush, or clothes to use. Thanks |

Personally I wouldn't bother with the Sonax if you have ppf and ceramic.
For tires I prefer adam's graphene tire dressing, but that's largely personal preference depending on how shiny you like things. For glass stoner invisible glass has always worked well for me. Is your glass ceramic coated as well? One area not on your list is rubber/plastic, I can't vouch for it, but am going to try nextzett Gummi Pflege Stift for the "rubber" bits. There are lots of different options for interior and plastic, most work pretty well but they can make things shiny, so it's a matter of personal preference. Be careful with overspray, it's really easy to think you are spraying on a towel and miss the little bits that have landed all over your door card making it look like you sneezed. |

I'm a fan of Griot's products. For whatever reason they don't seem to have the same market traction as Adam's or Chemical Bros, but I've been happy with their product line. A few examples:
Interior Cleaner Leather Care The leather care product leaves a really nice scent. I actually use it on our leather sofa periodically as my wife really likes the feel and smell after it's cleaned. |

I've used this method successfully on my last two car, and only have to contact wash when they get VERY dirty (like after a winter road trip with lots of salt and spray). |

-General regular soap wash for exterior with microfiber cloth - I would suggest a PH neutral car shampoo since it is PPF and ceramic coated. Koch Chemie GSF is extremely popular amongst the youtube detail lords. -Sonax polymer Netshield topper(advise on frequency)-Imo, any topper would work well. I use P&S Bead marker for weekly washes. Every 6 months I'll hit the car with something a little strong such as Gyeon WetCoat Wheels: -Wash wheels with brush and Chemical Guys Diablo gel cleaner-I hated the Chemical Guys Diable Gel Cleaner. It is horrible. Once I went to P&S Brake Buster, I can never go back - Exoforma Permashine tire coating - CarPro Pearl can be diluted to be used for exterior and interior rubber, plastic and trim. Its the best economical multi purpose trim protectant. Interior seats/dash: -Chemical guys interior cleaner - I used to love Chemical Guys as well, until I discovered what the professionals use. I much prefer P&S Xpress Interior, Gyeon Interior Detail, CarPro InnerQD, or CarPro Inside Glass surfaces: ??Stoners is the go to. I also use CarPro Glass as well. Steering wheel: ??Use a dedicated Leather Cleaner plus leather coating. I use either the Gyeon Leather Cleaner plus leather care ceramic coating, or Colourlock leather cleaner + Care
