It's not that hard to keep clean. Follow some simple car washing methods with good products and you'll be just fine. Thinking of trying ceramic pro this time as I've read it's quite thick and acts as another clear coat.

If I knew it was going to look as good as it does in the pics above on the track, I'd be all over AW. But seeing it in dealerships on other cars in different lighting, it looks too cream-like in colour. Not a sharp, bright white.

Now, had it been available in Mineral Metallic White, like on this M3, I would be all over it.

I've currently got Opti-coat on my 1er, amazing product imo and very similar to Ceramic Pro i believe. Definitely makes the car easier to keep clean.

We must see colour differently, because in the dealership, under low light, it most certainly looked creamy.

Fortunately for me our cars are either driven on the road or in the garage. They dont usually hang out in the dealer showroom...

That's what I want to hear I'll have to check some cars out that have it applied.

i have to disagree with u on brightness of white b/w AW and MW. b4 i got my M3 i spent a lot of time at my dealership checking out both colors in sunlight and for sure AW is a more bright, vibrant white while the MW is more cream white and matte white.
