Step 1: Wash the Car

• Use the two-bucket wash method
  
• Clean wheels first
  
• Wash all exterior surfaces thoroughly
  
• Rinse and dry with microfiber towels
  

Goal: Remove all loose dirt and grime before touching the paint further.

Step 2: Decontaminate the Paint

• Use a clay bar or clay mitt with lubricant
  
• Glide gently across all panels
  
• Focus on rough or gritty areas
  

Goal: Remove embedded contaminants for a smooth surface.

Step 3: Polish the Paint (Recommended)

• Use a dual-action polisher with suitable polish
  
• Work panel by panel
  
• Remove swirl marks and light scratches
  
• Wipe residue with a microfiber towel
  

Note: Skipping this step may reduce final gloss and finish quality.

Step 4: Surface Preparation

• Wipe all panels using IPA or panel prep spray
  
• Use clean microfiber towels
  
• Avoid touching paint afterward
  

Goal: Remove oils and residues so the coating bonds properly.

Step 5: Apply Ceramic Coating

• Apply a few drops of coating to the applicator pad
  
• Work in small sections (around 2x2 ft)
  
• Use a crosshatch pattern (horizontal then vertical)
  
• Apply a thin, even layer
  

Tip: Less is more - avoid over-application.

Step 6: Level and Buff

• Wait for coating to flash (per product instructions)
  
• Gently buff off excess using microfiber towels
  
• Use a second towel for a final finish
  
• Check for streaks or high spots under good lighting
  

Step 7: Curing Process

• Avoid water exposure for 24–48 hours
  
• Do not wash the car for 5–7 days
  
• Keep the vehicle in a dry, sheltered area if possible
  
• Full cure may take up to 14 days depending on product
