    Ceramic Coatings and existing Rock Chips?

    I'm going to have my car coated with Crystal Serum Ultra next month (earliest appointment the installer had) and I'm wondering about a couple of small rock chips on the front bumper. Should I go ahead and fix them, and if so, how long would I need to wait before the coating is applied? Should I just leave them? They are very, very tiny, and I know the coating isn't going to protect against new ones anyway.


    Thanks for the help!

    Do a touch up now and by the time the car gets paint corrected and coated it will be cured and ready for that.

    Do it now. You may have trouble getting the touch up paint to stick if you try to anything after. I've coated touch ups after 24 hrs of drying before
