I'm SO confused - PPL & Ceramic Coating

[partyelf]

No. I am not saying that. 15 man hours, if 2 people are working on it is roughly 7.5 hours of work time.

I think Ceramic Pro overhypes they product like crazy, a bit like that crap: F11 do. But in terms of coatings, I have not seen any evidence Ceramic pro is a bad product. It's probably very decent. If you have the choice between ceramic pro 5 years and Cquartz (2 years), clearly Ceramic pro is a better option... The question is really how much more would it cost?

I am not a big fan of 3 steps polishing on daily drivers. I think it's not necessary. My suggestion would be to get the installer to do a 1 step polish instead, unless the paint is completelly trashed. If you have heavy defects, 2 steps of polishing would be needed. A 3rd step would make the paint shine more... could you see the difference, I don't know.

This was also very helpful - thank you!

For extra detail; some have said PPF needs proper prep. When compared to a ceramic coating, it doesn’t.

As long as the paintwork is clean and contaminant free, you’re good to go.


PPF has the ability to hide light scratches and 600 grit. It fills much like clear coat.

This was helpful - tks!

I looked at ceramic pro website they say their coating is best with 4 coats and comes with a lifetime warranty. How many coats is your guy going to do?
