  1. shane@detailedreflections's post in How should I protect my ceramic coating and adding max deep shine? was marked as the answer   
    Thanks @8675309'SS  We are actually an accredited GTechniq detailer, so we are very familiar with your coating. It’s a fantastic product. It’s actually the coating I have installed on our personal vehicles. 
     
    You can use the products you listed on your coating, but I question the need in doing so. I would use the ceramic wash and the ceramic waterless as my two products if I had to pick. They are utilized in cleaning the surface which is critical to any ceramic coating. 
     
    Your coating is applied in three layers. One base layer, and two top layers. This allows that top coat to be pulled off if it’s damaged/worn/etc and then reapplied. Ceramic coatings still require decontamination yearly (or more or less depending on usage and environment). 
     
    One of the big benefits to ceramics is the need for less maintenance. In using a host of products and layering, you’re diminishing the benefit of the coating you paid good money to have installed. 
     
    Should you have further questions, don’t be afraid to ask. GTechniq does offer some maintenance products but I won’t discuss them in the open forum out of respect for Adam’s who hosts this site for us all to share information on.

    If you can find some, Adam's makes a matte detail spray and a matte sealant.  Both would provide great protection for your wrap.
     
    You could go ceramic coatings, but they may deepen the look a bit and make it just a touch more gloss.  There is a company out there that makes a matte specific ceramic coating as well.

    The SK is a great deal.  And with a mini, you'll be able to do nearly any job as well as you could want to do.  It's a great combination.  The mini is great for posts and bumpers, along with other intricate areas.  For personal use, the SK is probably the best deal on the market.

    It’s a good idea to do so. It can be some pretty aggressive stuff. If you’re removing marks, you can work just those areas as needed on a microfiber. Wipe dry immediately afterwards. 
    It won’t take long to add sealant or wax back to the area and be confident you didn’t give up any protection.

    Looks to me like it should polish out.  Start with Revive and work your way to more aggressive methods.  You can also try a little clay and see if it will pull any decontamination out.
