1 can of Gyeon Can Coat.
Haha true. Probly would be my best bet, as im not sure it would be worth all the work to do a glass bottle ceramic coating.

I guarantee I could throw down one coat with one 30ml.

Anybody could as long as you only use the amount you need to create the reaction on the surface, and not spread wasteful, heavy amounts.

2 or 3 50ml was my thought as well.

While i understand your thought on being able to make one work...im not sure that i agree with that idea. If you are doing a coating that is a one layer, it is made to apply heavy. Why would i skimp on the product just to try and save a bottle or two. I would then question the length of durability even though durability is subject to other factors. Im sure you get what i am trying to say.

Sure, totally understand.

But applying ceramic coatings ‘wet’ or ‘heavy’ makes no difference in the amount of durability you’re giving the paint.

By doing so, you’re not applying a ‘thicker’ layer. All you’re doing is extending the flash time, risking high spots, and mopping up more of it with your towels.

I know you’ll never agree or see it my way, i just feel compelled to throw my view and my experience into the ring!

Manufacturers who make the products say a 2 cars 1full size truck on average per 30ML. I would guess you got the paint of 3 F 250 worth of coatable surface. I’m thinking a little more than 30ML.

90-100ML.

Agree there is alot more surface area than ya think there. Dont forget the 6 rear fenders, and a full deck plate that runs from back of the cab to the 5thwheel
