There are so many options! Would love to see a video where you provide your first pick series of products from cleaning to base coat to ceramic to wax and topper. Especially first preference (or ties) for people without garages, as well as confirmation that the products are available. A few things seem to be out of stock on the xtreme site. I have a black lexus I plan to drive for 5 years, but no garage. I 'd love to really take my time one weekend soon and just spend a couple days doing a really thorough clean and then layer a few things. Plan to start with a good polish and decontamination and then ceramic base coat or two. Have the adams car wash, have the citrol and goof off pro. planning on a couple coats of clean and shine and then would like to do one more type of thing on top of that if it's advised, and then do the 'secret sauce' stack to finish, except the LVR367 magnum wax is out of stock, so was hoping to use their topper for that step instead. Just not sure if it will get the same results or if there is a different substitute. Have watched close to a dozen Apex videos, love how clear everything is, have learned a lot!

Tldr it cant. Sometimes more fillers are used for darker colors because it's easier to see fine scratches In dark paint. It sounds like a glaze. Fillers are a no no for experienced detailers. He's basically testing the fillers. A true compound, polish and wax would last way longer and probably look better. A glorified infomercial or product demonstration, Unfortunately Apex detail is selling out and becoming a paid influencer. This always happens when they get a large enough following. Dpc was the last one to go this way. I was suspect of his promotion of the xtreme solutions detailer spray. This just confirms it for me. Time for me to move on to newer smaller detailers and mostly sticking with independent reviews and testing from forums etc.
