& GTO would you advise against teflon then? |
I don't think teflon is such a great idea, when i had asked Honda to teflon coat my Vtec, they themselves insisted that i keep the car as it is.
The clear coat applied after the paint is good enough to retain the gloss and the colour's richness.
But you will have to take some amount of care. Wipe your car everyday if possible, park it in shade when ever possible, polish it atleast once every 1 or 1.5 months, don't use any other forms of detergent or solution not meant to be applied on a car.
Even when washing the car, use 3 different types of cloths and 3 buckets of water. One to wash the car's body, one to wipe it and the 3rd one to clean areas where most of the "hardcore" muck is found, like under the wheel arches etc.
Never wet yor car and then leave it in the sun to dry itslef. Make sure u wipe away every drop of water until the whole car is dry.
That should keep your car clean and glossy over the years.
