    In the end we will be coating the coatings for all the same reasons. Paints will get swirled, etc.

    I just through the thought out there. I really do not believe the hype about this stuff and am waiting for an independent testing agency, like consumer union to comment.

    Mike's reviving the 5 year old thread. I think he's still waiting for the independent review results to come in

    The coatings almost act like a 2nd clear coat on the car. So they can be treated as such. At least that was what I got out of it. It's a very cool technology that I may offer to some of my customers if they are willing to pay.
    Good to know thanks
