DIY Ceramic Coating My WRX for $100

Ceramic coating my 2020 wrx before the cold weather hits. I used a 3 stage Adam's polishes ceramic coat. This won't be as good as a professional $2,000 ceramic coat obviously, but it is well worth the $100. I'm just as happy with the results as I was with my last car I applied this stuff on! I highly recommend it! Also this coating is a 9H coating which puts it up there with the more expensive stuff!

I’ve actually used that same coating before. It says to re apply every 6 months but I’m going on over a year without reapplying. Only using the booster, and it’s still doing great!

I have the same exact subie. Best color!!

This Is this the same magnetite gray that’s on the 2022 models?

[@StreetInspired1]

Correct!

What ceramic towels do you use?

[@StreetInspired1]

I used the premium chemical guys microfibers. They seemed to work pretty well. However walmart actually sells similar quality microfibers now for quite a bit cheaper.

I wish I did this as soon as I bought my car learn the hard way that typical washing is trash and scratches your paint now that I've learned 100 ways on how to wash your car properly safe and without scratching your paint I am definitely definitely going to ceramic coat my car these paints on these wrx's are very very sensitive overall love the car just got to be committed to maintaining the paint on it

Just polish it then apply the ceramic. Doesn’t need to be brand new, just corrected first.

Hey Cody, how long did this last? What have you done since?

[@StreetInspired1]

Still going strong!!! Thought about coating it again but it held up really well. Still beads water like crazy and the dirt and big guts hardly stick. Might have to make a little update video!

@@StreetInspired1 should I tell the dealership not to wash my '22 WRX when it arrives? I've heard bad things about dealerships in general and their washing methods. Maybe even leave the shipping film on until I get to the dealership? My PRECIOUS! Ha

[@StreetInspired1]

@@theaveragejoebody 10/10 would recommend that! I Painted brand new cars for tons of dealerships when they would wash it for the customer and mess up a brand new car! 😅

@@StreetInspired1 Cody I really do appreciate your quick responses. You have already helped a ton between your channel and the work channel. I'm gonna go for the Build Bux membership. Getting all my fluids will be the first step. Your combo kits over there will make oil changes even easier.
