Urrgh! I had to re-upload this one due to some spelling errors, story of my life! Thanks for watching again and give another thumbs up, please.
how do i apply for a job i live in california
Where did u buy this ceramic coating at ? Link
Ceramic coatings are wonderful.
My wife started loving me more.
My mother-in-law stayed out of my hair.
Food even tasted better.
LMAO
That’s it I’m sold. Ceramic here I come
My mother-in-law can’t stay out of my bed now
Sold 👌
Once again, honest and informative, no wasting time.
Great explanation on the reality of coating. I always suspected the advertisers were hiding some dirty little secrets. I like this video with its honesty.
Thank you for spreading some truth in this world of over exaggerations...
love your videos mate. Watching from Scotland. Keep it up!
Wow. Very concise and informative. Thank you! I learned!!!
I manage the renovations dept at CDA Honda and Showing the dust broom wiping the ground and then on the fender and hood of that old classic almost game me a heart attack haha
Awesome demystification of ceramic coating! Thank you and I agree. I will definitely get ceramic coating for my truck but only because I want it to be easier to clean -- I will clean it just as often as I do now, though. Not to be scratch-and-dent-proof, invincible, levitating or any of those myths. I considered a clear bra and vinyl wrap first but soon realized that my truck spends a lot of time in the sun and those solutions would give me one year of returns at best on a $4K investment. Pro ceramic coating may fair better maybe for up to 5 years if I am disciplined about covering up my truck.
Wow. Impressive.
I don’t usually post comments but very well put. Just got my first ceramic coat on a 2020 3500 HD Denali.
Looking forward to seeing the video on maintenance.
Also thank you for keeping the video short and sweet. Keep up the good work.
Very informative in a very interesting and simplest possible way!
probably the best explanation about myths of ceramic,Thanks.
great video and very educational...thanks for taking the time to educate the rest of us
Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment!
Awesome video! Great job.
Thank you for your honesty! Good dude rt here!
Thanks, great video and info.
I have bought this product n I have a membership with them. I must tell u this product makes my black on black looks like diamonds from heaven is awesome. Thank you guy for the product March 2020 from Miami FL
Thank you for the truth rather than the hype!
Well put, I will reference in my own language to customers.
Thanks a lot, great video & glad I found it.
Subscribing!!!
Good truthful explanation
Thanks to be so straight and clear👍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻✅
Thanks for watching.
Really good info here, though it's tough to believe anyone could truly think coating their car means they never have to wash it again... I guess you can't blame them the way these things are advertised haha.
Hey Chicago, Finally an honest, thorough evaluation and education @ ceramic coatings. Thank you. Do you know if Permanon is considered a ceramic coating, or something else, and if you used it, what do you think? Larry
Great info and have subscribed to your channel ... Thank you
Good video. Thank you
Very informative video 👍
I'm planning on using this on my motorcycle, primarily where the chain lube and grease drops onto a lower part of the fairing, will the ceramic coating make cleaning this easier? At the moment it takes degreaser and a bit of work to remove it and I'm hoping the coating would make it easier to remove.
Thanks
Awesome video thank you
reminds me of the ol Teflon coatings from the early 90's
Good video!! What's the best to protect the car paint from the Sun and to make it look shiny: nano coating or wax?
Thanks for the great explanation. I do however wonder why some detailers are clearly taking advantage of the charge to there customers
to make £$$$£
Long story short, buy a car and walk. Problem solved
Contraction/expansion/UV rays and static charges due to weather should have been number one on your list. Regardless of the properties of any existing products, Mother Nature always win. You can prolong the oxidation, but it will require constant effort and $$.
info overload! tnx man .. =)
Thanks for the great information. This definitely eliminates the need for this waste of time coating. Unless I live in a totally dirt free environment why would I waste my time and money. Just a marketing hype for people with exotic cars and plenty of cashola.
And the bigger piss off is having to baby the coating that's supposed to be protecting your paint. Two bucket or three bucket method. The four mitt method. Don't go to touchless wash due to harshness of soap. Use PH balanced soap. Let the snow melt instead of brushing it off. WTF
Please make a video illustrating the difference between diamond coat to ceramic coating and which is more durable and advisable to put on our car 🚗 thanks
Well detailled explaination Jason. You made a New subscriber of out me! Thanks.👍
Awesome, thank you!
Thanks for the info.
you're welcome!
Good job on your video. Another two myths is that ceramic can be created at room temperature and the myth that the 9H hardness is harder than car paint. Marketing is clearly ignoring science .
Fantastic 😀👍🏻
My name is Richie Dandrades and this product is the best one that I have had. Is Really awesome n fantastic for my Suv
Thanks for the info, i was about gonna go wild with this ceramic coating that i just bought
You are welcome.
GREAT VIDEO . thanks . has anyone used SurfaceCare . any good
💕 great video
Keep up the good work guys
2008 Lincoln Sprt MKZ- Its Clear Coating is still working ! No Waxing, Just Joined a Car Wash For 3x wk and they detail the car 2x Yr ofr $150 a Year.. and Garage Kept
Tnks for your information now j know stuff that I didn't know about creamic tnks to u, What is the best ceramic coating that u would recommend me that will last for a long period of time
I'd like to know of this coating can also be used on the headlight and taillight lenses. (it's frustrating they don't make the headlights out of glass as they use to).
So in a nutshell
A ceramic coating is a sacrificial coating that can take a small amount of abuse,be removed / renewed when required and fingers crossed,help keep your original paint finish damage free from swirl marks.
Bryan yup
Sheeeesh >$2,000 for a sacrificial coating 😓
I experimented on new black acrylic sheet with an expensive DIY coating, supposed to be 9H. I scuffed the heck out of it rubbing it hard with a new microfiber. That doesn't seem too scratch-resistant to me.
Hey Jason, been doing a lot of research re ceramic coatings and would love some feedback from your years of experience with metallic finish cars. We’ve had previous new vehicles with metallic paint that have had ‘coatings’ applied by dealers (I know, but we didn’t know better back then). One was a black metallic and the other white, and in both cases, in my opinion the metallic finish was underwhelming. The paint was ‘glossy’ but defiantly looked flatter, and I didn’t think much of it at the time. My current car has been professionally prepared and coated, and it too has metallic paint - much more metallic than the previous vehicles, and it too appears to have has lost some ‘sparkle’. Yes the finish is glossy with awesome beading & highly reflective, which seems to be the finish the detailing guys all love, but it’s enhancing the flecks of metallic I want. I’ve scoured the internet and only come across 2 detailers who agree with what I’ve experienced. To the point that I’ve been told it must have been poor preparation that caused this ‘side effect’. However I have screen shots of numerous vehicles showing a highly flecked metallic in a before shot and an almost ‘sparkle free’, glossy, reflective finish in an after shot. I’m changing my car in a couple of months, hence the research, and coming down on the side of wax to keep the sparkle. So what do you think? Does the desirable glossy, mirror like finish you get with ceramic type coatings reduce how obvious flecks in metallic paint are?
I haven't bought into this ceramic coating seal. Very good video on pros and cons. However, I've the same results for over 40 years using Maguire's mirror glaze formula which is applied in a 4 step process. If one is willing to spend 6 to 7 hours on the first time after one buyer a new vehicle or repainted.. you'll end up with a deep mirror finish result. After that just maintenance.. but also not scratch or elements proof.
Been using Maguires products for 35 years ( not ceramic), IMO they’re the best, most consistent paint protection products I’ve ever used, & as as ex high end vehicle repairer/refinisher I have used more types than I can throw a stick at.
Thank you for making this great video. I have questions.
1) How significant the vehicle become scratch resistance when we apply ceramic coating vs uncoat?
2) Do wax, sealant, and hybrid sealant has same level of adding scratch resistance level compared to ceramic coating?
So glad and appreciate if you have time to answer my questions. Thank you. :D
Let me answer your questions since no one had the time to answer.... ANswer 1. I would say about 4 ot of 10. answer 2 i would say 3 of of 5. Now heres a quick tip, if you maintain ur car religiously a sealant would suffice. Also the most important everyone needs to think/ decide is slickness that is why ceramic coated cars have the ability to repel dust, rain and snow better than of non ceramic product which in turn makes maintaining and upkeep of your vehicle is much easier and enjoyable. That is the bulk of ceramic coating and what everyone needs to know. Sealant and waxes does the same but lasts fort about a month to months or on your next wash because their not as resilient as ceramic. Can i get 2, 3-7 years on ceramic coating? yes if u leave ur car inside and dont drive the car if u drive it out it'll be expose to all the elements and decreases its longevity. What is a realistic time frame for ceramic? imho and as my golden rule for cars being driven daily is i would be happy to see one year then prep the car and strip whatever is left on the paint off of ceramic, clay and polish the whole car or only polish areas that needs it. Then apply the ceramic coating of your choice. Hope this helps
Can I just say what a highly informative vid you done there ,gonna ceramic coat my car and a sub from me.
Love your videos, very informative. Now for regular people that don't have the hundreds or thousands of dollars to get a ceramic coating from a pro such as yourself what are your thoughts on off the shelf products from auto parts stores and such? If you use those products after regular cleaning and maintenance. Do those products offer similar or close to the results and benefits as the professional coatings. Obviously it won't be the same but a bit of a comparison
Great question it's too bad most of the people who post videos are too busy to answer questions that's why I never subscribe unless I see the creator answering at least a few questions.
My G63 Edition was delivered week ago and it’s finished in matte blk...if I just get the whole hood and fender grill with matte film...can you tell the difference where it didn’t get filmed?like where doors meet the fender?in a clear you really can’t....btw great content!Thank you!just liked and subed!
What brand/type of coatings do you recommend for a full-size ram, crystal granite metallic color? I go off road from time to time but not a mud truck by any means.
I use 9h nano.... So far super satisfied it's super hydrophobic. Mud came right of my truck with just a waterhose. It came right off....i was amazed.
There is no wax i know off that does it to that extend. Best bucks i ever spend...
When did u use the 9H coating? What is the update as of today?? Will these coatings be efficient after 3-4 months if properly cared?
Any updates? What brand did u use?
Does it protect chrome wrap from uv rays an fading
Hey bud. First time I saw your videos. Very nice. I just subscribed.
Thanks for subscribing, hope you enjoy the content.
@@ChicagoAutoPros for sure I will bud
I bought a brand new Honda Accord Sport last Saturday. The paint looks perfect. I can't see me rubbing a clay block or anything else on the body. Do I need/want to put a ceramic coating on a new car that's going to be in a garage most of the time?
hey Jason love your video's. long shot here but any clue who does work like your and uses the same products you use in the myrtle beach, s.c. area??? a lot of i do the best work ever going on!!! have a 68 camaro that i want done.
This is THE best myth buster I have seen on Ceramic coating. I only have one tiny bone to pick. 99% of people misuse the term "spiders" and "swirls" and they think they are interchangeable. Technically they are not the same. (I am not referring to you since I'm sure you know the diff ) Maybe you can do a video showing exactly the diff in how they look.
Spiders = fine scratches when viewed in the sun look like "spiderwebs" its short term or long term abuse of the clear coat ( poor hand wash technique, wiping using anything dry, auto carwashes, assembly line "hand wash" places, california dusters, and a million other types of things that can cause clear coat abuse)
*also 99% of people THINK spiders are "minor" scratch damage ....it is anything but and to correct takes experience, skill and time and for a daily driver not worth the $500-$600 to have a pro correct.
**If people only knew how dang easy it is to prevent the vast majority of spider damage.
Swirls = "holographic looking scratches" They have a very different pattern and much more broad vs tight spiderwebs. Swirls are caused by poor rotary polisher with wool bonnet technique primarily by rookies at production collision shops. I see it in parking lots ALL THE TIME. Or inexperienced "detailers" trying to to a "quick" polish on a car using a rotary and wool. There is a very specific pattern and technique when using wool and a rotary so that you do not cause "holographic scratches " and precious few Pro's understand the technique. Its far easier to keep from causing polishing mistakes using a modern style direct drive DA..
Keep up the great work!

I remember when Hydrophobic windows became popular. At the time i was a window cleaner and a lot of my customers were sold "self cleaning" double glazing and they told me they no longer require my services.😅😂
Hi. Great videos! What are your thoughts on Ceramic Pro 5 year warranty versus Opti Coat? Is one much better than the other?
Can ceramic coatings be applied to a matte finish or does it require a different type of coating?
Hi, question. I just spoke with local Ceramic coating tech. He told me I have 3 options. 1. 2yr coating, 2. 4yr coating, 3 8yr coating. I am confused. Should I go for 8yr coating? or just do it 2 yr coating?
My vehicle has a Clear Vinyl bra over the nose/headlights/mirrors and hood. Can I use safely use a ceramic spray over those areas without issues? I am currently using F-11 and also NexGen. I would appreciate any feedback.
Hi, does ceramic coating liquid has any expiration date? I mean how long can I keep this liquid in bottle unused?
How do I remove bird spots from a vehicle which has been given a Dura Seal G4 paint protection? Wash and wax or Mothers Detailer any good?
Hey there thank you this was very informative. Should I use 1,2 or three coats?
One
You can play a bearded Ben Affleck.
@MJAdetroit his facial structure makes him look like a 5'4 on screen lol
So you're telling me this wasn't Ben Affleck this whole time? I thought this was the trailer for his new movie...damn!
hilarious 😂
can it help with range on an EV ? less friction with air right ?
You got a good channel one video that doesn’t exist out their is difference between sIO2 based and titanium coating
Titanium coating of Chinese smoke and mirrors... they also selling diamond crap now to which is just their 2016 batch of liquid they couldn't sell
Hello, Please advise gtechniq CSL + EXO V4 vs CQUARTZ UK 3.0 + GLISS V2 Which of these is the best coverage, Or do you advise something else to take? Thank you so much
Can I apply ceramic coating over a 3M style paint chip protector that I got installed on my hood and fenders?
What ceramic coating brand do you like best
Thanks for being honest, appreciate it. One question - Why is it called Ceramic?
Your welcome. Good question, I may just do a video on it.
Ceramic coating has some kind of oxidized metal, usually silicon carbide, tungsten carbide, chrome oxide, titanium dioxide, that gave its hardness.The term “ceramic” is just broad term for any oxidized metal.
That’s why Apple Watch Ceramic edition is essentially oxidized aluminum.
Good job on the video . So here is the ? How can you tell if there is ceramic coating on a car and what is the basis of removing ceramic coating if necessary (process please) . And no one tells what is the process before applying ceramic coating that there’s 40 to 50 hours of removing all scratches on surface before applying who would apply ceramic coating right away on a car that has scratches no one states this so no one tells you how much the job cost
Well if it's hydrophobic you can tell you have some form of protection on the vehicle. Because coatings last a long time the hydrophobic properties can diminish with the build-up of above surface contaminants, We recommend doing a coating maintenance detail once a year to remove all the tar, sap and iron particles that will build up.
You can remove the coating with an aggressive compound and machine polishing.
Could you recommend a good paint thickness gauge, is ecotek any good
I just got a new dark colored vehicle and was looking into ceramic coatings. Will it prevent marring and swirl marks? I’m trying to decide if it’s worth the money. The one the guy has offered me is a 5 year ceramic pro for $660. Is it worth it?
What kind of applicator pads do you use?
Hello! I'm planning to have my motorcycle coated with ceramic coating. Would I still need to wax it whenever I wash it later on for more protection?
no, the ceramic is like a much better coat of wax but it's made up of different chemicals and lasts much longer.
Out of all the products that claim to easily remove dirt of any kind from your car, which one is best and why?
What are the diffrences in between ceramic and diamond coating ??
I have a 16 mustang GT black. It has a ceramic coating that is new from the dealership. I took it there to have some warranty work done and they washed my car improperly. Now I have swirl marks what do I do to remove them I was told I can use a polisher and it will work ,but it will remove the coating…. What do I need to do . Thanks for your time.
Do you put cermic coating on a single stage paint? Or just wax?
I have a 2009 Green Kia Sprtage and I fear the phoenix sun & heat will discolor the paint since it sits outside will ceramic coating protect it?
Does it help prevent rock chips at all?
How does it reacts with dry dust
I wish I had watched this video before I had a ceramic seal coat put on my Grand Cherokee. I would never have had it done. I was charged $2000 for this coat to be put on because I was told (1) It would last 5 years, (2) It would prevent scratches, (3) I could just rinse the car off because the seal was that good, (4) I was never told about a boost every three months, and had to buy this Boost to apply every other car wash , it was like what was the purpose of having this done If I have to apply something every other car was? Car-Toys did the work and now I'm trying to find out if I can get my money back because they misrepresented the product and themselves.
@Chicago Auto Pros I have a brief question. Is there any ways of removing swirl marks without having to use a rotory machine or a buffer I would gladly like to know I would appreciate it very much hope to hear from you soon thank you
You could don't by hand, but would not recommend it.
will it protect against bird droppings?
Can’t seem to find a place to search for DetailWise Trusted Detailers on your website. Is there a link available?
All I know is that I went to go volunteer at my local wildlife sanctuary and I came outside and there was a goat standing on the hood of my brand new 2019 insight. Luckily the month prior I got it ceramic coated all I had to do was take the hose and a microfiber cloth and wipe off the hoof marks and the dirt. The only thing there is is one small scuff mark. I'm sure it can be fixed, it's not even that noticeable. The ceramic coating saved my car. I couldn't be happier.
Ceramic coating or wrap...which is better overall?
Hey there, just want to ask for your opinion about system x diamond coat. The company advertises it as permanent with "previously unachievable levels of gloss, durability, and chemical resistance".
Great informative video. Thankyou . More importantly are you wearing pyjama bottoms ?
What does road salt from snowy days do to ceramic coat?
@chicago Auto Pros. Just wondering if you have heard of a ceramic coating called Zombie. My friend applies it and he does 10 coats. I have ceramic my car by using gtechniq. He brags about how his is better. But the cure time is he uses a heat gun to dry it then re apply thus really having no time gaps between layers. Just want to know your feedback.
I've seen hundreds of ceramic coatings sold by salesman telling the consumer it lasts forever and protects against scratches and if it does scratch its coverd by the lifetime warranty
Difference between ceramic coating and glass coating???
