How To Clean Your Matte Finish With Meticulous Matte - Chemical Guys

Matte and satin finishes are a popular choice for adding a sleek, stealth appearance to any vehicle but without proper care and maintenance that fabulous flat finish will soon turn into a faded mess. Matte surfaces require special care since they are very sensitive to cleaners and protectants and if the finish is ever scratched it will remain there for the life of the vehicle unless it is repainted or re-wrapped because it cannot be polished or touched-up. Meticulous Matte is the first matte-safe car wash soap that won’t add unwanted gloss or shine while using advanced foaming technology to help prevent scratching the sensitive matte surfaces. This unique high-lubricity shampoo uses advanced foaming technology to gently encapsulate and lift dirt and grime away from the surface for scratch-free washing. Using the proper shampoo on your matte finish is essential in preventing stains and discoloration due to the extreme sensitivity of matte finishes. Meticulous Matte easily breaks down dirt and grime for a crisp surface with zero streaks!
Standard detailing products create undesirable shine on the flat, textured finish of matte finishes. The wax-free Meticulous Matte formula uses slick lubricants and premium cleansers to remove dirt, dust, debris, fingerprints, and water spots without scratching or adding unwanted gloss or shine. Use it on its own for quick clean ups or as a drying aid after washes to enhance a crisp cool sheen!

Does this satin-matte wash work on satin motorcycle body parts?

[@bryanalonso7978]

Question, how many times is it safe to wash the car especially in the hot season? Also what product would you recommend to wipe off or upkeep the wrap when you don't have time to wash it every now and then?

[@ChemicalGuys]

Hi Bryan! It is always best to wash the vehicle when the surface is cool to the touch. Try working in the early morning or evening hours when the temperature is cooler or find a shaded area.
