A lot of high-end detailers carry it, some that also carry the usual suspects.

Also, does anyone have experience recoating a vehicle. Does the old product need to be sanded off to get new coating to function correctly? Is is removed chemically? Or is it just polished/corrected before a new coating goes on? Do you have to use the same brand on a recoat for best results? Just trying to avoid surprises later. Lots of questions...
Is that just for the coating itself or including labor? I ended up going with Opticoat Pro Plus on my '18 that just came in, warrantied for 7 years. One of the high-end detailers in the area was offering Modesta but it was 2-3x the price and I just didn't see any added benefit for a DD, maybe for a show car it's better? As with all coatings though, I think its the prep work and detailer familiarity with the given product that matters more than anything.
