Great car awesome looking paint . Have frozen black here I was not ready for frozen paint and hence the fear buying .

I made mistakes .. I bought to much special soap and Matt this and that . Fear buying .

Try new stuff on the inside of your doors first start in small areas let the product earn its way to your car .

I tried them it feels like . BMW says soap and water but will sell you Matt soap and Matt wax funny . I could never do 5 year ceramic because I was terrified of changing the finish and longer the years the more tests I saw changed the finish .

Me I use a slight higher PH .
Jimbo’s super soaper … why rarely have to bucket wash and they say more scratches on black cars are from the owners funny but true.
9 out 10 no contact needed and yes the Ph is slightly higher I was inside and doesn’t sit on the car long maybe 50 washes nothing but clean and also have some PPF on the hood and sides .

I use Jimbos hard as shell best go to product I have ceramic spray it’s incredible water beads perfectly and bird droppings wipe off it’s amazing and keeps the dull dull . Absolutely love it … I tested it like crazy first before over the car .I spray it on with a little water left on the car and spray my micro fiber towel then the car and drag the towel over it and it’s awesome . I use it on my non Matt cars and windows also works great .

If a water spot which is rare using hard as shell I use Vinegar and water spray 60% Vin and never a issue both Jimbo’s products are more water based .

I have tons Matt sprays Matt cleaner Matt spot remover Matt soaps on the shelf . The spray cleaners to much alcohol for me .

Good luck it’s a great car saw maybe a scratch it’s ok enjoy your car have fun with it
