You know, I've only washed it twice since the application and I didn't use anything special. With the coating it really doesn't require much effort to get the dirt off. Sorry, I'm not more helpful.
Thank you, I only ask as I was told you had to use modesta soap after you get the coating

the modesta soap label is a bit strange it was lost in translation from Japanese to English it's more of a conditioner after you wash the car, you would spray the Modesta "Soap" on the car while still wet and then rinse it off then dry the car. It works great.

I also have a 2015 BMW M3 Mineral Gray / SO.
You selected Modesta BC04 which was designed for darker color cars that are daily driven. Would you still recommend the BC04 over the BC05 for Mineral Gray?
My understanding is that the BC05 was designed for even more gloss and all types of colors.

yes it was designed for more gloss, this customer I know that BC-04 was the right product for him, unfortunately it sits outside and he is not able to bring it back for maintenance washes. BC-04 was right for him. If you are in SF and can take care of your car I would say pick up BC-05.

Awesome! To my knowledge, JC actually works solely out of his state of the art shop, I know he use to do mobile but believes best work is done in the shop in closed doors. Best of luck your in good hands!
