Default Suntek PPF care

I've got SunTek PPF on most of my car and wanted to know what products you all would recommend for dealing and waxing the car.

I've been told that carnuba can yellow the clear bra. Unfortunately some of the best waxes in the market obviously contain carnuba. I'm looking for something that provides a deep gloss. I do wash the car regularly so gloss > longevity for me.

Thank you!

I use meguires ultimate wax. Synthetic and super easy to apply and makes it feel like glass. Looks good too. Try it. Sean at ultimate shield said its fine for suntek

I have been using Pinnacle Souveran Carnauba on my clear bra for four years with no yellowing. Yellowing is generally caused by UV and age, it will inevitably degrade.

Regardless of the UV damage a clear bra will also degrade through impact from road debris and eventually it will need to be replaced. But that's what it's for, sacrificial barrier.

Why not do a premium coating over it and not have to wax it? I just got back this week from the Modesta conference in DC and we installed it over a clear bra on a Cayenne GTS, no problems and because the coating is flexible, the PPF will still hold its self healing properties. Plus the gloss is insane! You can also top it with wax if you were heading to a show or a get together.
