Anyone have a go at coating polished countertop surfaces? I have an outdoor kitchen that I seal every 6 months and I thought about the ceramic coating and its longevity.

I did a year or so ago, looked good, dunno if it did any good over anything else like what folks normally use on granite.

Did also coat stainless appliances and their black touchpads...stayed *much* cleaner and better looking for a long time.

I recently tried Meguiar's new Hybrid Ceramic Wax on my indoor granite countertops and the results were marginal. That stuff is amazing on cars though. I highly recommend it for cars. I ended up using Collinite 845 on my granite countertops and it worked great. I would imagine Collinite will properly protect your outdoor hard surface countertop as it would the paint on your car. Good Luck!

I was just about to try Klasse AIO on my granite, perhaps I'll top it off with Collinite 845.

I would recommend it. Short of bringing in my DA polisher, the Collinite was the best solution so far. I may try others in the future.

Why stop at a wax? Just wrap the granite with PPF. Go big or go home.

Does PPF handle hot items from the stove? If not it seems like I’ll be going home with that one.

Did you band or machine apply the 845?

Thanks for starting this thread. I was wondering the same thing. I don't mean to take this off topic but i was wondering if ceramic coatings would work in a shower as well? How cool would it be to use the hydrophobic properties of a CC in a shower? Anyone ever tried it?

Apparently a tough environment though, doesn't last nearly as long as on a car.

And yes, the solid surface shower walls were clayed, polished and wiped down prior to coating although I did skip the Iron Remover.

Sometimes the winters are long and boring here...

Safe for food prep? I mean I use plates and cutting boards but 5 second rule?
