Caring for Nano/ceramic paint question
Does the nano clear coat require special care? Can I wash/wax by hand the same way using the same products (Blackfire and Zaino) as before? can I tak it to a detailer without worying they will do something wrong?

~One mans opinion / observation~
The new MB clear coat is a very hard surface (much ‘harder’ than current urethane type clears, and therefore surface abrasions are avoidable, unless you do something drastic)
Wash the vehicle the way you usually do (they say it won't be harmed by a 'soap 'N Suds type carwash, but as a detailer I still find it hard to recommend you take it to one ) hand washing is far, far superior and dosen't use strong detergents, semi-filtered recycled wash water or rough towels.
Most detailers are aware of this new technology, as far as I know there are not any new methods required, any natural, synthetic or polymer protection (Blackfire, Zanio, et al) will still ‘work’.
~Hope this helps~
