    If you have the 2013 crappy paint as I do only Liquid Glass gives you protection...Before crappy paint I used Spirit wax or Pledge...They do little to protect the soft paint........................Dickie

    Matte silver

    I got a special kit to clean and seal the matte paint. I don't think you are supposed to wax the matte paint.

    If I do a Google search for "Liquid Glass paint protection", I get hits for lots of different products (all calling themselves "liquid glass") from lots of different manufacturers. Is there any particular brand of liquid glass that's recommended? Any chance of a link/URL?

    Many thanks!

    Amazon http://www.amazon.com/Liquid-Glass-L.../dp/B0002JMIEK or the manufacture of it http://www.liquidglasspolish.com/pro...e-auto-polish/

    Autoglym paint cleaner, polish and Caranuba wax on my blue bike.
    If I want to give her a birthday, then I'd use my 'Swissvax' detailing kit. Top of the line and bloody expensive but brilliant. I save it for my MG.

    You can't wax a matte finish.

    I use this to clean and seal it: https://www.duckyproducts.com/mattefinish.html

    That gal must be a pretty good detailer, that car looks great. I like that it is made in the USA.
