Yes the seller I usually buy Gyeon, CarPro, etc also has Tac Systems. Is this Aqua RW I see they have considered excellent?

Ok thanks for the help everyone. CarPro is also widely available and I do seem to find some sellers of Griot's in the UK. I see the Brilliant Rinseless wash is highly regarded around here. Is the SiO2 product considered excellent and superior for people with ceramic coatings as well? Lastly...

I'm in Central Europe. I could just order Optimum No Rinse from Amazon.de, but do wonder if an SiO2 product would be preferable.

Thank you for the advice. Indeed, I think I am going to have to switch to the rinseless approach. I have a ceramic coating on my car and would like to do a quick wash weekly. Can you recommend me a wash product that might be appropriate? I am having trouble finding N-917 over here. I also...

Thanks for the suggestions. Both GTechniq and 303 are available locally. Do you guys find those to be excellent products? Is the 303 considered a standout? I was surprised Koch Chemie doesn't seem to have an overt fabric protection product.

I don't have a carpet protection product and the 3M Scotchgard line is scarcely available over here in Europe. Does anyone have experience with the RainX product in this category? I was thinking of getting Gyeon Fabric Coat, but it's 4 times as expensive as RainX and, as far as glass is...

Good point. I might actually be rubbing grime in. Will have a rethink. I guess the thing is I like to at least rinse it once a week to keep it looking clean, but something more thorough might be time prohibitive. I like to just stop by self-serve bay on Monday morning commutes. Maybe I...

M240i in Estoril Blue. Just bought a 2019 few months ago and over the moon with how great it looks after paint correction, coating, and proper detailing :) Girls especially seem to admire a clean little car. I get notes left under wiper in female handwriting with little heart emoticons etc...

Gotcha, I guess I am somewhat new and don't know the terminology well yet. My protocol is wash every 3 months or so with something like Restart for a "decontamination" and between those I only do water jet cleaning (dried with blower) every week or two with Ceramic Detailer for shine and...

I got their new product for ceramic coating Restart. Haven't used it yet. Would check it out over Bathe, however.

Yeah, I'm just going to sack up and do it. My car is 3 years old (BMW) and I plan to DLUX the headlights and taillights (as long as that's indeed a good idea). Do you know if it would be advisable to use some kind of polish on them first? I ask because, for example, I know it is recommendable...

Ok thanks for the advice, I think I'll stick with traditional conditioning materials on the interior then. Can you say what you think of wheel coatings? Have you considered just using a product like the Graphene Flex Wax or Gyeon Wet Coat after every wash as a substitute for a coating? I...

It sounds a little like you might be thinking other detailing products for plastics might be unnecessary if you have DLUX as long as reapplying when starts to fade. Do I read you correctly? What would you do for maintaining dash and other interior plastics if all of them were coated?

I know a total forget wouldn't be realistic, I was exaggerating a bit, but is it still important to do the same amount of treatment with plastic protectants or could you, for example, just use something quick like Gyeon Interior Detailer on dash and Ceramic Detailer on trim after ever wash...

I'm tired of washing my bright silver wheels seemingly every week so have decided to coat the wheels with DLUX. While the smallest bottle they make contains much more than you need for a set of wheels, I thought I'd also go ahead and basically coat everything that is plastic, even the dash, I...
