Make full you tube vedio plz.

have you tried Ceramic Gloss as a drying aid on your maintenance washes? It's another excellent product :)

@@diydetailofficial I'll have to give that a try, thanks!!

do all the top brand live up the hype of how long they last?

​@@CARWASHCHANNEL. Better than Ohio

Thank you

The person applying it has the most effect.

Yes it does have an effect on it...

It does!

it really is!!

Yes

Gotta get a coating that sheets ie. Carpro finest

No scratch protection, but prevents fading. Removed with polishing. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/lc2ge5VottTcfmw.htmlsi=Qcw5GEXIReqlkIPZ

It does prevent small scratches

Here it is kzfaq.info/get/bejne/lc2ge5VottTcfmw.htmlsi=AjYlepFdpCDGjfI0

He posted a fake video in response 😂

On the right where the water is beading is where the coating is.

Thank you

Yes, it will provide good protection.

It’s all perspective

Cerakote ceramic isn’t very good. I like their plastic protection though.

Yes

Wax lasts a few months, a coating will last many years.

Si02.

Waterspots happen on uncoated cars as well. Rain does not cause water spots. Coatings have many benefits, chemical resistance, extended life of the paint, easier maintenance, higher resale value are some of them.

Ceramic coatings provide strong chemical protection, help in making the paint self cleaning when it rains, and makes it easier to clean.

​@diydetailofficial thank you. So it's kinda like a layer of paint the ceramic coating? And will it break down/ wash off after so many washes? Or years? ..thxs again

@@ScolarshipBoy1984depends on the quality you get. It can last years and years or just a few and how you wash the car. If you never wash it with a ceramic coating, the dirt etc. will break down the ceramic coating prematurely. Oh and NEVER go through a car wash once you do get a ceramic coating. Itll rip up the coating. Only touchless if you do Touchless though you have to make sure the pH level of the chemicals isn’t too strong or it can ruin the coating as well. Basically. Clean it yourself once a week if you decide to get a ceramic coating.

​@aquifer98 thank you ..have you done this yourself the coating? Or its best to pay a shop? I rather do it myself but will it be same I can study the youtibe videos I mean I'll save alot of money ..how much you paid for your? Or you did it yourself? Thxs again

@@ScolarshipBoy1984 tbh I’ve never done it at all. I am considering it myself. But I’ve been looking up how to take care of ceramic coatings and articles about it and how it works. If you’ve never done it before and you have the money probably a shop but if you want a project for yourself and have the time and patience to learn…go for it I’d say. But shops will do a much cleaner and better job as there’s tons and tons of prep work involved involving tons of chemicals

Where there is ceramic coating, the water is beading.

Yes

Many years

Yes

But wax will not do it for long

​@@diydetailofficialhow does ceramic compare yo nufinish etc

​@@diydetailofficialhow long does ceramic lasts?

@@ronf28 there are higher level ones that last for years/semi-permanent, and most on avg last 2-3yrs. way longer than wax and makes maintenance super easy

The car needs to be washed.

No in the DIY Detail garage

DIY Detail Quick Beads or DIY Detail Ceramic Gloss

Look on the trunk lid, where the water is beading (right side) is where it’s coated

The side with the coating has beads, the non coated side has a sheet of water.

I don't think you know what a sheet of water is guy. ​@diydetailofficial

The DIY Detail Ceramic Coating will last for years , not months.

@@diydetailofficial Sweet. How's application times say for a car with perfect paint?

20-30 minutes. Here’s a play list that goes through the installation in depth. kzfaq.info/sun/PLD8gYJ2cLWeNJwVAqkPn5ZwrT7nGLQn1s

@@diydetailofficial thanks man.

Thank you

Yep just wait a week to wash the car and you can wax as desired after that 😀

@@diydetailofficial Wow, that's a lot of protection!

Coatings are not scratch proof.

​@@diydetailofficialand a proper test would show what they can and can't do in terms of light to severe :)

This may help kzfaq.info/get/bejne/lc2ge5VottTcfmw.htmlsi=m9BcUvVKMejHBh5u

in the case of snow, it's not so much beading that you're looking for with a coating as it is the panel self cleaning and having less snow on your paint during winter:)

Agreed!

Actually the opposite, on the coated side it’s gathered up in beads, on the non coated side it’s a full sheet of water

​@@diydetailofficial Tesla mechanic for 7 years now, all our ceramic coated cars come back within 2-5 years because they have water damage. At a ratio of 5:1 ceramics:normal. You are scamming people. Bigger water bead sizes lead to less water makes and pooling, as the aerodynamics help push off bigger puddles of water. Stop spreading misinformation, you are a horrible person if you continue to do this

Heber area

@@diydetailofficial awesome I’m up in Layton, wanting to start my detailing services . Been looking at different companies and products.

Yes

A wax lasts a maximum of 3 months, a coating will last years. A coating provides much better chemical resistance.

@@diydetailofficial I have not used a ceramic coating yet. My car is 20 years old and the paint is severely faded at this point. Never garaged and parked in the heat and sand storms of the Mojave Desert. However, I've used McGuires carnauba wax on the car roughly every 2-4 weeks for the life of the car so far. Never buffed the car and only clay barred the car 2 times. The paint held up very well for the first 18 years despite the weather conditions I subjected it to. At 18 years old, the car looked like it was new. Most people never believed me when I told them I like it sit through sand storms with wind gusts of 30+ MPH. The paint truly looked far better than cars half its age at 18 years old. However, looks are deceiving so some extent. The clear coat was being baked from the sun, blasted by the sand and even gentle washing with good car care products had its effect over time. Nevertheless, I give a lot of credit to the wax for doing an outstanding job for so many years. Unfortunately after the 18th year, wax is doing little to protect the car anymore. The clear coat is definitely gone on the hood, roof and plastic components (bumpers, mirror caps, door handles, etc). Later this year I hope to garage the car, disassemble it, refresh everything under the hood and under carriage and if all of that works out, I'll get the car repainted. At that point I'll make a decision on PPF/ceramic coating and the car will be kept in a garage from that point, forward. I appreciate your reply.

It was a fun little car

Cool

Thank you

@@diydetailofficiallol what’s the difference. It still gets water spots 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

@@jjrealestategthose aren’t called water spots. The water is beading as intended and will trickle down easier than the left side after a short time of driving. It will dry easier too with a blow dryer or towel. Depending on the quality of the coat or number of layers, you will see even less water on the surface than here.

Yes

PPF is good, but still requires a ceramic coating

A PPF is thousands of dollars and has to be professionally installed. Even the highest-end ceramic coating is only a few hundred and you can do it yourself. I think the latter is the smarter choice.

🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

You might be surprised

Me, pretty much every single time I walk up to my car lol

Me with every single car I look at! No matter where I am, who I’m with and if I have sun glasses on, I will even tilt my head down to see over the top of my shades to check out paint work haha. You either have the detailing bug or you don’t. I caught the detailing disease about 3 years ago and it’s all think about even in my sleep 😂 Should probably start my own detailing business and sell my insurance company!

At the end of the video the 2 sides of the trunk are very apparent

Look a little closer, on the non coated side the panel is flooded with water, on the right side the water is beading.

Some are actually. The ones you see advertised as miracle products that you never need to wash your car again, I agree with Scotty

Not after 6 months and 70+ car washes

Wax beads as well, but doesn’t provide chemical protection nor durability

They keep your car cleaner because of the beading

Once you try a good ceramic your opinion may change.

Thank you

?

@@diydetailofficial it’s a car detailing products and carwash soap company

?

Why

The real waste of money is getting the car repainted after the clear coat starts failing from years of no protection

Why?

We are trying to make more people into car people.
