Turtle Wax Ice is sold at most stores and is not the old paste in a can, idiot. Anyone I recommended it to, has been amazed how easy and what a nice job it did.
I have not been to this site too much since joining in 2013, I also own an F150 and spend a fair amount of time at another forum.
But, I remember when I had a '16 and thought I knew everything too! Some guys just can't help themselves, must be nice to live in a perfect world!

So much trolling going on in this topic...good job guys!
No I merely asked to see the finish in harsher light for a film that hasn’t been maintained since day one

Which I did.
Psst- my vehicle is washed weekly by hand and detailed (cleaned, decon’d and sealed) annually as I said.
Also, why did you want to know if I spoke Gaelic?

Just for fun guys, My wife's 2011 Sedan has a film on the entire front end of the car. She has never once done a thing to that film other than a regular car wash maybe 3 times year at most and that film looks excellent yet. For not doing ANY maintenance at all, I think it was a great investment!

Of course it is. This isn’t 1986 when the stuff would turn yellow and brittle in a year or three.

The guys above make it sound like you need to have another child just to perform daily washing and waxing duties to their film....

You misunderstood.
Plati was saying that his posts only make sense to children 2 and under.
For those playing along at home, heres Xpels response to whether you need quarterly maintenance if you use a ceramic/sealer:
“No. Once a ceramic coating is on the vehicle, there's no longer a need for the PPF sealant...What we have for after the ceramic is applied is our ceramic boost. It's not exactly a sealant per-say, but is something of a quick detailer that also has sealing properties. It's not a required maintenance type of thing such as the PPF sealer, but it's still a good idea.
Hope that helps. Have a great day!”
some people likely get suckered by shops roping them into unnecessary maintenance plans.
Hahahah that sir, I have no clue how that ended up on here. I was talking with a friend last night and I’m guessing I pasted that into here somehow. Alcohol was involved, my bad!

I was gonna add my two cents about the care of black vehicles since I've had a fleet of black vehicles over the years, some new, some pre owned, but I think I'll pass. Thread has derailed. I will say this, black is a love-hate relationship, and a LOT of work to get it to look good. Then it's not too hard to keep up with it. I love a black vehicle. I posted this pic before after a good wash, clay, polish, wax. Carry on!
Either that's a beautiful reflection or your framers were tipping the bottle a bit too much!
Is that a de-ionizing system?
