Nice rig! Enjoy every minute of it.Got to the dealer around 11 this morning, drove home with my new toy today at 4 pm..Love it so far, already put over 90 miles on it.. Going to start buying aftermarket goodies for it tomorrow.. My first off road trip is already Scheduled for April 15th at AOAA park in Pennsylvania.. Definitely need to get it t paint coated before thenā¦ Only bummer was having a 740 score which they said was tier 1 and getting a rate at 8%.. If they ever drop I will definitely refinance..
I appreciate the advice..
Might also try Torque Ceramic Spray. Have had really good luck with it here in the Florida sun.The only difference between those expensive ceramic coatings and the spray on one I mentioned is that they do last longer but also do require maintenance. They do NOT protect the paint from scratches or water spots.
The spray on ones (I think the easiest and longest lasting is the Griots 3 in 1) last a few months and all you do is take the time to spray some back on and you're good to go for another few months.
My best advice for keeping your paint nice is:
Keep it protected using a spray ceramic wax. When washing, use a two bucket method (look it up on youtube). Never wash in full sun as your hose water has minerals and will instantly leave water spots on your paint due to the hot sun. Don't hose down your car for no reason unless you're actually washing it because that will leave water spots. Don't park next to sprinklers as those will leave water spots as well. Rain water is fine to dry on your paint because it doesn't contain the hard minerals that hose water has. Use a microfiber mit (never use brushes on your paint). Only wipe from front to back in straight lines so if you do happen to introduce very light "swirls" they are only straight lines rather than the crazy swirl marks you see on badly washed cars. Use a leaf blower to dry the car so you touch the paint less. Don't wipe the car down if it's dusty even if you use a microfiber and detailer spray as it's just better to wait for an actual safer wash.
AND....never ever use drive through car washes.
Sorry if that's a rambling mess. Just typed it all up quickly before bed, lol.
