Default Ceramic Coating my 00 WS6

I forget to post here.. Ceramic Coated my 2000 with the Amazon AutoKCan.. results were fantastic and I'm thrilled with the outcome. I want to polish out my tail lights, exhaust tips and wheels yet, but those will come in the Spring..

It’s an 89 GTA - 35k miles - 5.7 Auto, pretty stock, has Magnaflow exhaust. I just paint corrected and ceramic coated it, photos from Facebook so quality is meh, but I restored the emblems as well, I think it turned out pretty good.

Looks good guys. OP I have not heard any reviews on that amazon one, but in the future look into Undrdog. I did the Toyota of Irving, TX collection with it just their Pro line. They now have a Pro+ and it’s on both my wife’s daily and my daily. It’s fantastic for the price and lasts forever. I have Koch Chemie C0.02 on my Camaro. I would look into Cquartz next time if you are looking for a top of the line Ceramic. It has to be professionally installed, but the results are fantastic. Here is mine.

I'll check out Undrdog! I've had the Autokcan on my fiance's Grand Cherokee L for the last 2 years and it's still holding up. Just ceramic boost quick detail spray and washes here and there. Not bad for $30-35 a bottle.

Car looks good!

This is UD Pro + on my wifes Jeep Grand Cherokee L that we bought new in 21. It had the Pro line on it from day 1, and it was still holding strong at 4 years, but I wanted to make it pop even more after using the Pro + on my Ecoturd Flex AWD. UD is more than 30-35 but I got to help with a lot of the research and development. Joel the owner is the most down to earth guy. He worked for a really big local ceramic coating company here and got screwed over and took a chance on his self and developed UD. He is local to me and he has turned a lot of Ceramic purist into believers with his coating.

I had mine done with System X and I have been very happy with it. Now my wifes jeep and my truck I did myself since they are not a black car and I used Adams on them.
