Should have it in a couple of weeks...
Any tips on looking after the Frozen grey paint would be appreciated
For cleaning and ceramic coating, a lot of people (including myself) have got the Dr Beasley kits. There's a sample kit, or a full kit. I ended up getting the full kit. The ceramic coating bottle seems small, but it will actually last at least 2-3 coatings so you're covered for at least a year +.

That said, I have already had a few small stone chips, and a few very small light scratches (one from someone brushing against the car in a parking lot it seems), and you can't polish them out like you would with normal gloss paint. Normal finish, the scratches would have polished out in seconds, but with this finish you can't polish, so you're stick with any scratches and chips.

If it wasn't a lease, I'd have got the xpel covering, so if you're purchasing the car, I would highly recommend budgeting for Xpel.

Alternatively, gert a normal gloss paint one, and put the savings to a mat wrap in the color of your choice.
