@Janusha Ed is (or was) a professional exotic car salesman... You don't succeed in that business if you can't talk and talk and talk and if you're talking that much trying to convince someone to buy a $400,000 car, you better like hearing your own voice or you'd be absolutely miserable trying to sell the kinds of cars that Ed is used to dealing with. He can brag all he wants... He was smart enough to figure out how to lease multiple 6 figure cars when he was 19, 20, 21 and in college and turned that into a career in exotic cars. He can brag all he wants for all I care. You can brag all you want too when you're the head sales director for the only dealership that sells Lamborghinis in a state where a lot of people buy them.

Took me about 7.5 hrs to prep and coat my 2019 G70 that had about 600 miles on it and was garage kept, it had almost no paint defects so it was mostly about clay barring it.

A friend of mine has his 12C ceramic coated. We drove it home from an auto show in Omaha, NE in January. The roads were slushy and covered with that gross, grey/black snow that anyone in the Midwest will recognize. Got it home, basically the bottom half of the car from bumper-to-bumper was filthy. We watched as the snow began to run off the car while it sat in the driveway. After about 30 minutes, the car looked almost 100% clean again. That experience made me a believer.

Andrew Zboray I’m not sold on this guy. This is his channel promoting himself and products that are paying him. Its a marketing method for his dealership and whoever is willing to pay to have products featured

I had my truck (which is black) professionally ceramic coated shortly after I bought it 2 years ago. When clean it looks amazing. It does get dirty over time and as in the video, rinsing it does get a lot of the dirt and grime off. The biggest issue with it is the water quality where I live. It is rather hard and the minerals etched the coating so after the first year, the sides of the truck bed had to be completely redone from etched water spots. Got a water deionizer and have been good since

I was wondering for the longest time why my Range Rover wasn't getting as dirty as my other cars especially here in NY with all the snow and salt in the winter. Only when I dug up the sales paperwork did I realize when I got the car I had one of these "ceramics coating" jobs done. Go figure. I think after five years now, it still starting to become like the other cars perhaps I'll get it done again.

Haha yea there was some charge on the bill for a preowned we got at a dealer for some kinda "paint sealer". It's her daily ,I don't think I've washed it more than 4-5 times a year. I've had the car almost 3 now and yes it needs a wash but it still has a shine. Haha now I know what that stuff was , well worth it and now I'm thinking I need it for my old rides.

I would like to hear an update on how the coating holds up. Including time spent on the road and how much bad weather it experienced.

I really try hard to keep my bikes clean but after track days, weekend touring and commuting I end up cleaning one every 2 weeks. Maybe thins would help keep the road grime off? How would it do on plastics and swing arms?

So keeping in mind that this is the results after only a few days, ceramic coating is 60$, about 2-3 times the price of a good wax. Id Certainly love a product to work 3-5 years, but wax claims up to 1 year and usually lasts 2 months. SO PLEASE KEEP US UPDATED ED.
@Jiebsooenkl 5 жыл бұрын
Ceramic coat dont cost that much. You can even get cheap chinese product for $10. It's the prep work that cost hundreds of dollars(paint correction/touch ups etc).
