Hi everyone!

So heres my deal.
Had the car ceramic coated with CQUK 3.0 and PPF. They cured it for about 24 hours indoors. When I picked it up it was raining and I drove it home. Now it's dirty and I want to wash it. This all happened last Thursday (now it's Monday).

I ordered a bunch of things on Amazon (reset, elixir, Hydro2 Lite). Not sure what I should use to wash it. Just reset?
or Should I do reset, and then Elixir as a drying aid?

I also ordered a foam cannon, some high quality micro fiber towels, some wash mitts and 2 buckets. Just not sure how to get the most out of my ceramic coating that I paid so much for and I want my car to be shiny :)

Thanks!

I personally would not wash it for a week.
However, the only thing I would do (if necessary) is (Reset) with a two bucket wash or foam cannon.
You could use Elixir as a drying aid if you would like.

I would not use Hydro Lite on a ceramic-coated car.

Just my thoughts...

Thank you. What about on the mags? Hydro Lite? or also reset and Elixir?
 
Based on what you ordered I would recommend using reset and using Elixir as a drying aid whenever you choose to.

If those wheels are uncoated / bare aluminum, the use a metal polish to clean then up when they need it and follow up with a sealant. Elixir or Hydro Lite would work to maintain as well.
