 Dealer applied paint protection
Well this was covered some place recently but couldn't find the thread ----
Had the new SL treated TOUCH OF CLASS (Cal Tex) anyway before the first wash I noticed small to medium rings grey to white all over the car ---- washed using their wash and filtered water and used their restorer --- no luck --- tried everything short of rubbing compound --- no luck
Called the co., and filled out paper work for claim --- got a call back in 2 days they set up for a car detailer to come to our house and evaluate ---
he said looked like water and or chemical spots --- no problem he did an acid wash which removed the spots then retreated the car ,at our house --- looks beautiful --- no charge
He said these coating protect against UV primarily and spotting second ---- his advice ;
use (Meguiars) clay bar once a year( more if washing won't clean) and their Gold Class wax 2 coats to start and then once every 3 months and use quick detailer to clean in between. Use only commercial grade Micro fiber cloths use heavy waffle type Micro fiber towel to dry and buff and finer ones for application.
His tip for windows --- use any window cleaner but dilute it 50/50 with pure water (no ammonia) Again Mirco cloth 1 for wash ,1 for dry
He said other brands are out there and can be used but after 20 years he likes the one mentioned.
Note ;;washing of Micro fiber --- never mix wax applicator and buff ones with window cleaning ones NEVER use fabric softner.
Sorry for the long post but this may be of help to some of you
