01
Wash routine
Use a pH-neutral, wax-free shampoo. Gloss-enhancing or wax-loaded soaps leave residue that masks hydrophobics.
02
Decontamination intervals
Plan a chemical decon a few times a year depending on your environment. Iron removers and dedicated coating maintenance cleaners restore beading without stripping the coating.
- Coastal and heavy-traffic vehicles need it more often
- Water spots should be addressed early, not left to etch
03
Toppers
A compatible SiO2 or silica-based topper refreshes slickness and self-cleaning. Apply thin, level fully, and avoid stacking products from different systems without checking compatibility.
04
Drying matters
Coated paint releases water easily. Use a clean drying towel or filtered blower and avoid letting hard water evaporate on the surface.
