Raige93 Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 Looking to ceramic coat my GTI come Spring time and I'm wondering what I should do regarding some rock chips and a very small door ding. Can I just coat over them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 shane@detailedreflections Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 You can coat over them. We use the Dr. Colorchip system to repair them. It takes a little patience, but you can get a great repair using their system and the paints are all factory color match. Good stuff for sure!

0 Raige93 Posted February 28, 2018 Author Share Posted February 28, 2018 When repairing them, how long does one have to wait to coat over them? I wrote this and was thinking ' man I hope Shane replies!' I appreciate your insight, thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 shane@detailedreflections Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 (edited) I like to wait a week or so. Just to let the repair really cure and harden before taking anything to it. The repair is really simple and doesn’t take long. Well, chips are easy. Scratches are a different creature. Build the paint up. Let it cure. Build it up. Let it cure. Once it’s above the paint, we polish or wet sand it down so it’s even. Not entirely a traditional use of it, but it’s how we do it. I’ll be doing a post on a repair in the next month or so. Just waiting for the car to come in for a coating. And you’re welcome! You can always shoot me an email or direct message too. I try to be good about replies.
