Took the plunge

Been a little while since I posted last, but I finally decided to purchase some ceramic coating and give it a shot. A little nervous because I’m overly anal retentive and would be livid if I had even the tiniest hint of a swirl trapped beneath the coating. Car is a 2017 Z06 (seems to be a lot of those around here lately) with under 100 miles. Will post pics of before and after at a later date. Anyone got any tips, besides the normal stuff I’ve read on the forums, chime in. Thanks guys!

The coating isn’t hard to work with. Take your time. Let it flash. Buff completely. 

 

Mosy of all know the quality of the finish of the coating comes entirely from good prep. Prep is literally everything with a coating.

Thanks man. I’m not sure why I’m stressing it. Might just be bc it’s a little harder to reverse once applied? Maybe bc the car is new and would feel guilty if it came across half ***? Who knows.

Take your time with the proper tools and correct it properly and you'll be fine.  Nobody cares about your car more than you do. Perfect paint and the prep it takes to get there is everything with a ceramic coating.  A Ceramic Coating is essentially saying "Ok my paint is perfect and exactly how I want it for the next few years, lets cover it in glass."
