  • Got her detailed and ceramic coated

    Wish the sun was out because the paint really pops in the sun. But to help preserve the fresh front bumper repaint I had the car clayed and sealed then ceramic coated the car. Paint is super slick and its killer watching water just fall off the ca now. I really love this car and am planing on keeping her a while so wanted to keep the rock chips at a minimum. So I had my friends at Bull Dog detail do the full treatment on her.
    Really happy how she turned out!

        What is ceramic coating? When I think of ceramic coating, I think of what I did to my headers. Not sure what your reference means.

              You can take a bottle of water and pour it on the car and it just falls right off leaving the car perfectly dry. Neat stuffs.

                Ceramic coating didn't do dick to protect my pace setters from the harsh climate of my garage.

                    I believe its just a marketing ploy to sell their paint protection. Some things I have heard and read about this new 'ceramic' is that it needs to be cured by IR lighting.
                    Zaino uses a 'clay/ceramic' type of ingredient in their product, when it dries and you wipe it off thats exactly what it looks like, clay. They also use aliphatic hydrocarbons to help it bond, apply and dry, the introduction of ZFX to help speed the curing process (no need for higher temps to apply or next day removal).
                    IMO these new products finally figured out Sal's/Zaino formula or even made it better. One thing they claim is that it can last the lifetime or years and some people have said that it must be wet sanded to remove, Zaino is a bitch to remove before repair painting by using Dawn and hot water or it will fisheye the BC/CC process.
                    This stuff is all over the place in price and it is gaining popularity, I haven't found anything that is better than Zaino, so I'll keep using it especially at the price point of $15.95 a bottle (Z-2).

                          Nice looking car. But as for the ceramic coating, I'll reserve judgement. Gonna take a lot to convince me its any better than the high end waxes. If the waxes give a better shine, they automatically win. Cause even they still last about 3 months, some longer. Plenty.

                            Turtle wax has been around since like the 60's-70's, for a reason. Nothing better!
