Cool. Thanks. One last question as I have been able to locate videos on applying the TW Wax. Do you think this product can be applied to exterior CF bits, specifically the CF roof?

Yes, including plastic/metal trim and even glass. Just avoid rubber seals etc.

Any thoughts on what I use and what you all use to keep your cars clean looking is greatly appreciated!

You can simply wash your car using the 2 or 3 bucket method and this should keep the car looking clean and paint well looked after

2. Use the Garry Dean Method, working panel by panel
3. Dry with a good drying towel or a blower
Is the blower able to dry off the ONR solution? Might work if you rinse with the distilled water first I guess?
