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.

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?

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?
