Low-effort ceramic coat booster?
Hello folks,
I have a ceramic coated car and am also very lazy. I like to pressure wash rinse it only and that's it. The water here is low ppm so water spotting isn't much of a problem. However, after several washes, eventually the road film / bugs on front bumper / road pollution on rear bumper start to catch up and I need to foam cannon and scrub the car down, then rinse again. What I'm looking for is the easiest to apply ceramic boost / top coat / sacrificial layer that will help me get as many rinse-only washes as possible before I have to use soap again.
In the past I tried a few "spray and rinse" SiO2 products but they bead up and run off right away, so I don't get good coverage. I've had to resort to additionally drying the car, spray on, and buff off. (Don't like all this extra contact, but it does look pretty good afterwards)
How about any of those foam-based toppers like Hydro2 foam? I figure in the case that I eventually have to soap wash the car anyway, may as well use that. Presumably it spreads on more evenly than a spray-and-rinse. Or is this one of those cases where it really is better to separate the wash and topping process?
