Car had only 600 miles on it when I got it. Only paint correction was some swirls on the roof. One coat 9h and 1 coat light. First I had Xpel applied to the front, hood, rocker panels, mirrors. I use Gyeon is a spray bottle to clean dust and have applied Polish Angel twice.

U boys' Vettes look sensational.. gorgeous.

While I didn't go with the ceramic choice.. I did do two coats of Meguiars Deep Crystal Carnauba Wax after I washed her in their Gold Class Car Shampoo and Conditioner

For those of you that wash at home make sure you are using the proper soap for ceramics. It makes a difference. In my shop we use Q2M Bathe
or Feynlab Pure Wash
The difference is the fact that these washes keep the self cleaning and water beading properties. Other car washes have a tendency to leave behind a film that slowly covers the ceramic and inhibits the qualities you are looking for in a ceramic.

Great point. At my shop in St.Louis we maintain Coatings with CarPro Reset wash.
