Good evening folks.

I've recently bought a Basalt black Cayman R which has was Williams Ceramic coated by the dealer. They do this to all of the cars they sell.

I've never had a car with a ceramic coating before. Always used Collinite 476S. Do I need to use a special shampoo and any specific cleaning process?
 
If the coating has been applied properly you can jet wash and shampoo without any adverse affect. I believe the Williams ceramic coating is a single coat system so you really shouldn't need to do anything other than keep it clean.

Thanks Edge.

Rockunrolla, that looks horrendous :eek:
 
Yes I've just bought this car ,
I'm guessing the previous owner thought and was sold it on the fact that ceramic coat is bulletproof and has been using brush car washers ,?
 
No, they were clearly washing it with a brick. Even a ceramic coating can't take poor wash technique. Black cars do show every mark so makes a photo look worse than it is..
 
Use pH neutral products and you'll be fine.

Take the usual anti-swirl precautions though, it isn't bulletproof (as per rockunrolla's pic).
 
That's bad , as you say you still need to be careful when your cleaning the car ceramic coating or not.
