Good day members,
First, I do love the ceramic coat, I wash & dry my car in 1 hr, that's it. I think it's awesome but
will never do it again.
I've never had a 'real' car so a few yrs ago I decided to buy a Subaru BRZ & keep forever, kinda
like a garage queen but not quite. So I found a pro to apply the product & he did an excellent
job. Well, keeping the garage queen did not last long as I joined the forum & found out all
the 'kids' were tracking their new cars.(I had never heard of this before). Then I found out
about autoX. I'm doing both now.... lol. Anyway, back to ceramic coat. I was at an event
& 8 am it was already getting hot so I decided to spray sunscreen & by mistake the spray
went all over the hood of my car. I thought, better take that off, but I have ceramic coat
& this 'protects' from any liquids/bird droppings etc. So I did not wipe off & it baked on the
car all day, not a cloud in the sky, just so beautiful, amazing day. One of those days where
you think nothing can go wrong.
Well, it's a polymer & it reacts with sunscreen. I now had/have hundreds of minuscule dimples
on my hood/fender. I went back to the pro & they said they would fix.
1- They went through the paint sanding it down!
2- They would get it repainted.
Ok, but I'm not impressed.
Get it back from shop & I only noticed months later that the dimples are still there &
there are water marks under the clearcoat!
So, what I bought to protect my car(keep value), f#@! it up.
Just for others to know, specially those with young kids going to the beach, opening the doors
with sunscreen on their fingers...
I like the product, just be aware.
I'll be waxing my truck, I enjoy it anyway, I kinda miss not waxing the car.
