CarPro Immortal - Self-Healing Coating

[RobRabbit2.5]

But it isn't a replacement for clear coat, it meant to be an additional layer to traditional systems. I've sprayed sereral coatings now with my HVLP gun, but that doesn't make them paints...

I see your point.

To soon to say, but it definitely has my interest. I'm not currently set up to handle this, so I would actually have to work with a body shop, or go full time and invest into a shop with a booth. I do have some limited painting experience though.

I thought you had a body shop in the family? I always thought those pictures of you spraying OCP on grilles and stuff was in the shop (not the booth, but elsewhere).

Dealers might like it. My dealer offers Ceramic Pro. We have a professional detailer install it. If I told you how much people pay for it, I don't think you'd believe me.

i'm a person who only buys used cars and keeps them well maintained, its a matter of cost vs time.. my time for repairing them is worth the cost of not dealing with new car depreciation.

i wholeheartedly agree that people don't quite understand how much money is spent when somebody walks into a dealership and buys a new mercedes at 120k (or leases, in which case it would have the options for longevity like a coating)... if they buy, they full well know that car will be worth half as much in 4 years.

cars are not an investment unless it's a work vehicle. money is spent like crazy on them, this website and forum are a testament to that.

I would love to know.

This isn't common for dealers though from what I have come to know. Most are using no name or cheap coating products marketed directly at dealers as a big profit generator for the unknowing customer.

You have to remember that SYMAWD and me are here in the NYC area, it's crazy around here. There would be people here who would want Immortal simply because it was the most expensive thing you could get.

My father runs a collision and restoration shop, but that's 4hrs north of me. He did work for a while at a shop 6 block from me, which is likely where I would go initially.

All those pics are from a 25x25 garage I currently work out of.

Sorry, I misunderstood. It's a nice garage.

What are the issues associated with applying 25 microns of any coating to a car?

Very Cool. Didn't Nissan offer something like this years ago?
