Hi Mike, to piggy back off of this... I'm going to ask the noob question, which Ceramic Coating kit should I buy? Wolfgang Uber? Blackfire? Sonax? How do these compare to Ceramic Pro that the pros use?
Thank you for the info, very informative!! I think seeing just how thin the clear coat is (post-it note) validated my concerns with wetsanding to do this touch up method. I guess I will have to settle with the Dr. Color Chip and slowly try to build up and fill the chips per your tutorial to get...

Thanks for the tips! Presumably after I am able to maintain the car with just QD/waterless wash for a few weeks, should I ever need to do a traditional two bucket wash just to remove whatever sealant & wax is left and start over? Or would it be better in my case to continue using the QD and add...
