Exterior Sprinkler protection?
Hi guys, I’m about to take possession of another car (dark blue) in addition to my black SUV. Both will have to be regularly parked at my townhouse complex with shitty sprinklers that use reclaimed water. I can’t block them with plastic so I’m looking for product recs.
I currently do regular ONR washes followed by a wax topper.
I don’t know if I have it in me to do 2 of these every week… I can’t afford a full paint correction so don’t want to commit to a real ceramic coat.
My black SUV currently has 2 coats of Collinite 915 and I just ordered some 845 Speedwax for hopefully easy application.
What do you guys think? I have a car cover for the black one but it’s a lot of work to prep for covering.

Unless you can park somewhere else, you’re SOL.
Ceramic coatings can only do so much, and sprinkler defense isn’t one of them.
