    I'm about done with ceramic coatings, not worth it , need suggestions

    i m in the same boat. We had the the audis for over a yeesr. The grey one sits outside and we never noticed this before. A car wash was enough to keep the car clean. It is only after gyeon pure evo that we started noticing this. Its bad enough that we can see it without looking for it. Its not...

    these were pictures right after the car was ceramic coated, i went over under different lighting and there was not water spots at all. I did not even use a compound on the hood , just a all in one HD one, and car pro essence. The car again was kept in the garage for 2 days and it did not see...

I was trying to avoid removing the coating. I did a pass my da , white pad and...

    yes it is rain and sun . No water sprinkler anywhere near the cars… funny enough all the other cars in the house do not have this issue after a car wash. They are all exposed to the same environment the only difference is that the 2 audis are ceramic coated and the remaining of the cars are not...

    I'm about done with ceramic coatings, not worth it , need suggestions

    very likely. I think I m going to stick to sealants and maybe give a lite coating a chance in the future. I did not use cure but again the instruction should also make it mandatory to use cure after an application. I ve read the instructions and it only says to use it if outdoor application is...

    I'm about done with ceramic coatings, not worth it , need suggestions

    there is not way to blow the water off the coating if I take the car to work, unless I take my air blower with me and leave work right after its rains . If it takes 2 weeks to cure , it would be very hard to do this unless I was working from home in which case I would just leave the car inside...

    I'm about done with ceramic coatings, not worth it , need suggestions

    Disagree with all the statements except for longevity and maybe protection Protection against real environment is almost the same. They scratch as easy . They still water spot. Maybe against chemicals but that is just a maybe since my bmw had opticoating and it still etched on the trunk after...

    if you read the instruction on the website , gyeon only recommends pure of you are doing an outdoor application and there is a possibility of rain in the next 24 hours. These 2 cars were park inside a garage for 48 hours and none of them saw rain the first 4 days. But again, goes back to the...

    I'm about done with ceramic coatings, not worth it , need suggestions

    I did not have any topper applied on top of pure evo , but again goes back to my point , what is the point of the ceramic coating if I m going to apply a topper on top of it . Like the car is going to adapt to the hydrophobics characteristic of the top layer , which is in this case the topper...

    New paint job curing time?

    i never really understood this… my understanding is that the clear coats needs to be wet sanded and compounded , even polished after a paint job. so why wouldn’t you be allow to polish the car if thats exactly what the shop already did with heavy machinery before delivering the car i m...

    Cancoat evo bad experience or not?

    Didnt think about that and it is very true. My previous experience was applying gliss on top of car pro lite . However gliss is a very slick coating and easy to removd Interesting theory
