Morning fellas

So i picked up a new truck today (20' GMC Sierra) I would really like to protect it with a coating. I am leaning towards the BF line of products for the simple fact of the working time and ease on the ceramic coating as I am new to this. I had the wife car coated last year by my local Ceramic Pro dealer.... No way am i going thew that headache again,i feel i can do the job just as good as them.

I plan on buying the BF ceramic coating and care kit.
Question's is will a simple clay work or should i polish the truck? Will one bottle of BF ceramic do the truck? If so how many coats?



Thanks all!
 
I'm not a coating user, but this I do know:

You will want to decontaminate the paint, wash, clay, and machine polish. (Especially if the dealer let their "detailers" touch it.)

Then, you will need to use a "panel wipe". (A product designed to chemically strip the paint of all polishing oils etc.)

There will be more detailed replies from some of our coating aficionados I am sure.

Hold tight.........
 
What Paul said. I just did the BF ceramic on my F150, only one coat. It’s a lot of truck to prep n coat. One day for prep next day for coating (all done indoors except for wash)
 
Oops correction to the above, I used WG Profi ceramic on truck ( the BF was sold out, but now in stock, )

Was one coat all you could do with one bottle?

You should be able to get 2 coats on it. I believe this comes in a 50ml bottle.

Perfect. What’s the time frame for adding a second coat?

Also can this product be applied to any other surfaces besides paint?
