@Dennis C looks amazing!!!

For all you guys with Ceramic coating...is it truly worth getting?

I only ask because I have full PPF on the front, car is always garaged, driven twice a week...and I still love to wax/polish by myself. (Consider it a zen moment away from the kids, even if I can't remove every swirl mark...haha).

I know the ceramic coating can help repel water, cut down on washing time, etc...but is the shine and gloss worth it over standard polishing?

Thanks!

Looking stunning!!!

I definitely find it to be worth the investment. I also find washing and detailing the car to be therapeutic, but I also enjoy how easy it is with ceramic coating. My car is also garaged, it has PPF on the front third, and it’s driven less than once per week. The glossy finish is truly amazing.

There’s another thing to consider regarding ceramic coating since you like polishing and waxing cars. Ceramic coating isn’t something that you apply and then forget about it for a few years. It needs to be maintained properly if you want it to last. There are products that you have to use to keep it looking good and performing as expected. I like Adam’s Polishes, and their product is called Graphene Boost. There are plenty of other product choices, but my point is that ceramic coatings require maintenance.
