True but the thought of any potential damage to the clearcoat would just drive me crazy. You can’t 100% rely on a ceramic coating unless you’re willing to invest a lot of time/money in maintaining the ceramic coating. They all wear off at different rates and provide different levels of protection.

The guys on the side of the road with the jet washers and ask them just to use water and maybe a 4/6 monthly specialist ?
Did you find a good solution? Same situation here - frozen gray parked in an apartment building. I'm considering Dr. Beasley's Waterless Wash in between pressure washes at self-serving car wash where I'll only use their pressure washer/dryer and obviously avoid any wax/foam brush (btw any recommendation for a good routine at those places?) Thanks

Yep, professionally applied Gyeon matte finish to my Frozen Grey paint, has made maintenance that much easier. Also use Dr. Beasley’s matte wash each wash. So far, all ok 👍🏼

Not that my matte paint would ever get this filthy, but I watched a pretty decent primer on washing matte paint, and I question some of the products recommended bc I cannot find if they are matte paint safe, despite his testimonial and him obviously using them
Specifically:
-Adam’s Car Shampoo
-Gyeon Wet Coat
-Gyeon Tar Remover
-P&S Bug Off

Anyone use the above referenced products on their matte paint?
