So if I stay in an area where it rains a lot and my car is not kept in a garage, is there any benefit to me applying a ceramic coat considering the liability to water spotting? The car would be rained or snowed on every day through winter and probably 1 or 2 days a week through spring and summer. I have access to a clean dry workshop so I don’t have a problem taking time to prepare the car and install the coating. But will it be worth the effort? Thanks.

Nice video 👍

Great work - assuming W6 won’t degrade the coating on the wheels? Have CSL+EXO on mine at present

[@GtechniqUK]

No, they won't degrade the finish and are coating safe.

[@KevinAClassA]

Great job. What kind of shelter is that ? I'd like to get one for my shop.

[@GtechniqUK]

It is a cantilevered canopy. These are available in most markets and can be design to meet individual needs.

[@reeces7525]

After you sprayed Iron and Citrus, what was used to clean the wheels after? Just normal G Wash?

[@user-ez2jf4yb6z]

I want to know this question too :)

[@MrandMrsNavarro]

Would like to know, as well.

Do you guys have an interior ceramic coating? As far as a easy spray coating or application pad type process? Which products if so?

[@1974gladiateur]

I don’t recommend interior ceramic coating. If you have leather seats you want to use a cream protector.

Come on that car is not even dirty

Hi I have a question. I just had my Mercedes e350 ceramic coated and had front ppf installed. I was wondering what you used for the fender wells and tires. Is w6 safe for wheel wells and tires? Or did you use something different thanks.

[@GtechniqUK]

The W5 All-Purpose Cleaner is a better-suited product for the arches and wheel well. We advise using the W6 just for the Wheels and paintwork.

@@GtechniqUK Thank you

[@English-Sparta]

How often would you apply the liquid crystal spray on top of the coating?

[@GtechniqUK]

You could use it as often as you like. Typically the more you use it the better the protection will be. As a minimum during the winter, we recommend applying the product after 2-3 washes.

Hello, I have a commercial Grade ceramic coated Honda Civic 2011 4dr (5yr durability, 2 coats) with 3M PPF on the entire hood, headlights and front bumper. I am wondering about the use of your W6 and W7 products on this, especially if I get them on the PPF (if it is safe?), or should the PPF be avoided?

[@GtechniqUK]

The W6 will be fine to use on the PPF - however, we do not recommend the W7 for PPF or vinyl. It is a powerful solvent and should only be used on painted surfaces.

@@GtechniqUK First of all, thank you for the quick reply, I *really* appreciate it! I checked out more vids in your channel and was appreciative of the extensive info they provided. For instance, I purchased your HALO product for the above mentioned PPF protection since it was just installed new 3 weeks ago, and now I am curious about: HALO durability (when to re-apply), and whether I can/should apply W6 to it afterwards? TYSVM again!

[@GtechniqUK]

@@matthewnugent-marcoux3658 HALO typically lasts up to 2 years - dependent on mileage. The W6 is fine to use over the top of the coating as a maintenance product. The lack of beading is an indicator that it is time to re-apply the HALO. It could also mean that the PPF needs a deep clean.

[@noel3466]

Do I have to use ceramic wash to maintain it crystal light serum ?

[@GtechniqUK]

You don't have to, so long as you use a good quality car soap/shampoo you will be fine.

[@formidablefragment3433]

How often is best to apply this?

[@GtechniqUK]

We recommend carrying out a full decontamination wash every 3 to 4 months
