Also take into consideration that you cant wash your car with any shampoo. I said this because you want to avoid shampoos that have waxes or gloss enhancers because these reduce the coating hydrophobic properties. If you decide to apply a ceramic coating go with CarPro CQuartz along their shampoo called Reset which was specifically created for ceramic coated cars. I have an IGL ceramic coating and it has worked well so far. Hope this helps.
Nice post gabypr. I was wondering if someone were to ceramic coat their wheels and brake calipers would theoretically protect such areas from the dreaded brake dust. Has anyone else thought of or tried this? Thanks for your responses.
