I have a car with 3M Ventureshield film already applied, and have bought the Gtechniq kit with a view to applying C1 and EXO.

Now, I know I need to clean the existing wax off the car. However, the Gtechniq panel wipe says not to apply it to film. This is going to make it very difficult to clean the bodywork if the PW is going to affect the film. So how do I prep the car?

Also, can I put C1 on the film too? Or should I just put the EXO on the film areas? My objective is just to make the car easier to clean!

Many thanks...

Thanks for the reply. The Ventureshield is only on the high risk areas of the car though, I'd like to put the sealant on the exposed paintwork. I can do this easily on the roof and doors but just about every other panel is partly covered with film, sounds like I won't be able to touch these?

Thanks for the suggestions. I'm just going to have to be really careful, doing something like J12KLR suggested.
I'll sign up at Detailing World, thanks for the tip Kevin.
I have only had the car for a month but have used it every single day despite the weather... It's not a garage queen smile
