Hi everyone,

I was wondering if any of you have any experience with the ph levels the ceramic coating can handle over this brands:
1) Dr. Beasleys Nano resin
2) Regular Cquartz
3) Reload (i know this is not a ceramic but often we top Cquartz with this)
4) Optimum gloss coat 2.0

On the second topic, i live in Mexico as you can tell, finding here some "pure car detailing" products is hard as hell, so most products i find here are "cheap" soaps and stuff, is there any specific component within the soap that is not ceramic coating safe? so maybe i can find one soap that fits my customers needs.

Thank you guys.
 
I have no idea what products are available in your market, but I've used Poorboys Super Slick with Suds and Sonax Car Wash Shampoo on my coated cars. So far both have not changed the coatings durability or water behavior as far as I can tell.

I'm about to open a bottle of Optimum Car Wash to see how it works. Optimum recommends it for their coatings, so I believe it should be safe for other coatings as well.

Well forget about worldwide brands, all i can find here is SMART (wich i know is a chemical guys brand) and some cheap turtle wax and thats it.
 
•Ever hear of car-care manufacturers
that “salt” their car-washing products?
-It’s true that some do. (Check out
the car-wash products’ SDSs.)


IMO:
•Better car-wash shampoos should not
contain “salts”—they are highly corrosive.
-Corrosion can’t be good for the preserva-
tion of any LSP, including ‘Coatings’. (Nor
for/on any vehicle component, as far as
that goes.)

I was sure most wouldn't be found on the shelves in stores. I have the same problem where I live. Are there no Mexico-based on-line vendors you could order from? How bad are the import duties when ordering online from the US or other Central/South American countries? We used to have a couple forum members from Brazil, but I have no idea how they got their products.

I've traveled/lived abroad, but have no experience in your part of the world, so forgive my ignorance.
 
I had a thread like this and it seems the Reload comes up a lot but the regular Griot's carwash soap is a pure soap :props:
 
Reset, Bathe, D110, just to name my top three. Not only is pH safe important, but the overall makeup of the shampoo is also. No silicons, gloss enhancers, or waxes is equally important maybe even more so.
 
If you can get cquartz and reload I would think you can get reset that would work well as it was designed to work with cquartz.
 
I've never seen a recommended soap pH for any coating. I think they're all fairly impervious to any typical car wash soap. If you want to be safe maybe check SDS sheets and avoid anything with a pH over 10(?). I really don't think it matters.
