Ceramic Coatings for paint.

[Mr.FT]

Hi, as anyone had this applied to their car? A few detail guys around here are swearing by them. I just had my Demon striped and repainted @ 16 months ago, so I was leary about this, so I wanted to throw it out here and see if anyone has any experience with it. The detailer told me he had to take a course to be "Certified" to use this product.
Thanks
Tom

I was just reading about this. That stuff is high in VOCs, probably why the tech was trained in its application.

It's durable and lasts a long time but the "ceramic" is just marketing.

The real question is what's the charge?

You will need to keep it off the stripes and hood treatment on your car or is will change the gloss level on the black.

The charge would be @$500 to do my car, I was going to call Phoenix Graphics to check on the stripes. Thanks for the heads up.

I was expecting the price to be up there. Some charge even more. If your car is seldom driven and garage kept, I don't think it's worth it.
