EASY beginner ceramic coating DIY for beginners (How to) Griot's 3 in 1

[@MyweathernetreportsBlogspot]

First day the temperatures have been under 80°F in a few months. Took my microfiber applicator pad and a microfiber towel. Walked around my 2005 F-150 and sprayed on a fresh coat and buffed off with a microfiber towel. Have to do the roof when I can get in the shade. It’s the first coat I’ve applied to the truck 6-8 months ago. I l need to apply another coat tomorrow. Love this product.

@@MyweathernetreportsBlogspot yeah it works very well for the price. I like to use it on windows myself

Ceramic coating is really good for restoring old dry looking plastic parts too. That's what I mostly use it for haha

[@Jarph0821]

Yeah, it can definitely help get some shine back for sure

What’s the waiting time before applying the second coat?

Hey great video, quick question, if I used a dry spray wash and wiped it clean then applied 3-1 would that be ok or just wash with soap and water then apply the 3-1? Also what could I use to maintain the cleaning process throughout the year? Thanks

[@Jarph0821]

Either can work for prep. I'd recommend a clay bar prior to applying. Maintain? Just wash the car and apply 3 in 1 wet and wash it off. It will give it more longevity

You shouldn't treat the whole hood (bonnet) in one go, using a microfiber applicator pad with 2 spray you should have only done ¼ of the panel or used then buffed that off immediately then do the next quarter and so on or used a one microfiber cloth to apply no more than ½ the hood the a 2nd microfiber cloth to buff that section etc

@@nickevans3190 if you did the whole hood in one shot it's not going to hurt anything. The hood I'll do 2 sections, left and right. I use ADS ceramic spray primarily now. That one is beyond user friendly, you could do the whole hood in one shot. No buffing needed on ADS. 3 in 1 you might have to use a 2nd clean microfiber to get it all off, but it shouldn't be more than a few passes. No buffing needed generally speaking
