Last spring I did the Revive Polish, Glaze, Paint Sealant and topped with Buttery wax and then maintained through the summer with Guard and Gloss. Well, this spring I am debating on trying out something different. But, looking for advice on 2 different options I am debating on.
Here are some vehicle details if it matters to determine best decision. I have a Blue 2019 Camaro. It is my daily driver. It is parked outside 24/7. No garage or carport. I do not take it thru a carwash. I wash by hand. I am up in Boston Area so, it does see road salt but, I wash the car pretty often.
First, I am wanting to remove light swirls that I am noticing. So, I plan on using Strip Wash and then doing clay. After that I was thinking I would do a Compound and then the Polish. My first question, do I really need to do a Compound or would a Polish be ok? No major scratches. Looks to be light swirls. But, they are noticeable. No hard water spots or deep scratches.
Now, this is the 2 paths I am debating on and so, my second question.
1. Then go a Paint Sealant (Or is PS not needed?) and then try out the Americana Wax and maintain again with Guard and Gloss and occasional Glaze
2. Or go with Spray Ceramic Coating and then top with Ceramic Liquid Wax and maintain with Ceramic Boost.
I have been hearing some good things about the Ceramic Spray. I would try doing a actual 9H Ceramic but, not really wanting to try that myself.
If someone has a better plan I should do, I am willing to hear it.
