Ceramic coating

[jcordon7]

We own a 2017 montero sport. My dad is an ofw so ako ang laging gumagamit. Mas mahilig siya sa cars sakin and mas maraming alam.

Nag pa ceramic coating kami last December. 2 coats. Tapos bumalik ako ng February para daw sa "maintenance" at may pinatong sila na isang coat pero hindi daw ceramic coating it.

From what I understand, ceramic coating will protect the paint from minor scratches and keep away dirt and acid rain sa body and windshield.

I think overly hyped kami dahil sabi samin hindi na namin kailangan mag pa car wash or kahit tubig nalang daw wag ng lagyan ng car shampoo.

I don't know. Maybe hindi lang kami properly educated about it or didn't do enough research on it. Our monty is our first car. Nakikita lang namin yung effects nung coating pag bagong car wash kasi makintab. Other than that, wala na. I still see minor scratches.

Any thoughts?

Ceramic coating is not a magic shield for your car.
Yes, it will protect your car's paint but you still need to do regular proper car wash. Watermarks and scratches will still happen if not taken care of asap.

Sir how often do you suggest cleaning the car? Like for this rainy season we usually wash our car every 2 weeks.

In addition, kung gusto mo po madalian n paglinis. Bili k po ng micro fiber cloth and chamois pagkatapos mo pong gamitin car m kung maulan wash mo po agad gamit micro fiber habang binubuhusan m ng tubig. Then rinse with water pakapunas m sa lahat ng area ng car m. Then patuyuin m gamit ang chamois. Wala yan po n water marks.

No water marks but tons of scratches afterwards

Once a week would do. My usual practice is twice or thrice a week

True.

You can try a "cleaner wax" after the rainy season also.

Pag alis ng watermarks sa glass panels apply every now and then with a rubbing compound. Para hindi gaano mamuo ang watermarks.

I wipe the glass on my ride after parking it in the garage or any covered space kahit yung ride maputik na to prevent watermarks.

It's over hyped.

You will get scratches, watermarks, rock chips, dirt, mud, grime just like any other car without coating. You will still need to wash your car properly with the proper shampoo to remove stubborn dirt, watermarks, bug splat and what not. Shampoo is still needed to give lubrication to prevent scratches on the coating. Don't take their advice that water is all you need. It's a lie. You can't remove stubborn dirt with water only. Go ahead, try it. Besides, water can leave watermarks as well.

Ceramic coating is just another layer of super shiny "clear coat", nothing more. Yes, it will protect your paint due to the extra layer. But, it will fade away overtime.

Mine is due next year for reapplication (2 years renewal). But, I'm having second thoughts and just go for the regular paint protection. However, my car will lose the super shinny look of ceramic coating. It's a trade off.

May nag-ga-glass coat ba ng tail light at headlight lang? Do they even glass coat it?

Had mine ceramic coated usung Gtechniq also and after a month dami na agad swirlmarks and tiny hair lines although its not scratch proof pero I’m quite disappointed lang kahit after ma coat eh hindi naman nawala ang swirlmarks. Madali lang linisin ang kotse due to added coating. But I will see after my reboost after 6 months kung ano gagawin nila.

The ceramic coating isn't scratch proof talaga, kaya need parin ng proper car wash. Proper meaning 2 bucket method, using microfibers, etc. If sinabi sa inyo ng nag coat na di na need hugasan, then I think they are not a good shop kasi parang false advertising eh. Mas madali linisin ang car kasi hydrophobic but that doesnt mean di na lilinisn ng maayos.

kung after ma-coat ay may swirlmarks? ibig sabihin hindi maganda pagka-polish o prepped ng paint surface ng sasakyan mo bago inapplayan ng coating. ignore mo na lang mga deep scratches pero swirlmarks hindi man lang natanggal?[emoji849][emoji107] wala ako bilib sa detailing shop na ganyan, they offer coating kuno pero yung pinaka-basic na requirement prior to application ng coating eh hindi nga magawa ng maayos. tapos tatapalan ng coating yung scratches[emoji24] mag wax at sealant na lang ako[emoji2960]

I think what he menat was nagpa ceramic coating siya tapos nagka swirl marks ma after a month, not necessarily hindi na detail ng maayos. hehe.

Pero to carwhacko, were there swirlmarks already right after the ceramic coating? Kasi if meron, then blacklist that shop, tamad yung ganung gawa.
