    New monthly client. Not horrible to start with. He had a lot of paint splatter on his hood, I went ahead and polished out for him, along with the entire hood - no charge for the polish since he’s now a monthly client and little things go a long way, like doing the engine bay too

    @briarpatch Is there any need to "top" Jescar Ultralock+? I usually end with griots 3 in 1 ceramic. Thanks!

    At the initial application.....no....unless you prefer the look of a standard wax......and I've used Colorlock for that. As for your maintenance routine, I typically top it with Armour Detail Amplify.....prolongs the protection, maintains the gloss and slickness
