Carpro CQuartz UK 3.0 is excellent!

Adams graphene for the win.
Ever since My car left The NCM, it has had nothing but TLC and 100% Adams.
I also use a lot of ArmorAll ceramic foaming wheel cleaner.

It's good stuff. A reputable detailer near me has been using it for years.

I can't tell the shop what to use, but they're pretty high end here in Naples, Fl, so I'm assuming cost means nothing to them.
Appreciate any feedback just for my knowledge.
Will report after my car is done....

Find a shop that will use professional grade products like Gyeon or Kamikaze ceramic coatings.

I’ve never heard of it but that’s because the shop I use for ceramic uses Ceramic Pro and G-Techniq. I’ve found that the professionals are the only people who can get the products that have warranties and they have to be certified by the manufacturer to get them.
