Please though offer a complete kit which includes the ceramic coating, iron remover, panel prep,Adams shampoo and detail spray for maintenance.... then it would be the best coating kit available as it would have everything one needs from start to finish

Very happy with the spray. i figured the spray would be more forgiving to mistakes and I only drive 2 days a week so hopefully will last a while. It was my first DIY coating, did the iron decon, clay bar, and surface prep too. It wasn't as hard to do as I thought it would be; in fact it was kind of fun. Car stayed super clean after driving through rain/mud.

Thanks, guys, for the greatly detailed discussion. I have a lot of the spray left over from when I coated my Tesla Model Y going on about a year ago so, I'm wondering about two things: the shelf life after the spray is opened and whether it can be applied directly over a surface the has had Bead Maker on it. Thanks, again. ~David

If you coat your car with the regular graphene ceramic advanced coating first, can i use the graphene advanced spray coating every few washes to keep the coating lasting longer? Would the spray coating "layer" on top of the base coating applied to help the longevity?
@richeyrich22036 ай бұрын
Yes. The pray coating can be used as maintenance for the concentrated version. The latter actually adds several microns of thickness to the paint. While the spray only adds .1 micron thickness. Since the paint is only 100 microns thick to the primer, that extra couple added on make a big difference in protecting the paint for light weight wear. The spray is more of a looks thing

Pretty bummed, I did the full graphene ceramic coat job on our black GLK 350. Cured inside for 24 hours. Parked outside over the following night, it rained - yeah it beaded up great! And it's a pretty boxy car, so the beads didn't roll off. Then... it dried. So I had a thousand little dirt spots and looked worse than the untreated car. Yeah it wiped off easily the next day but... eh can't always win 😥

I am going to get a new paint job and install carbon fiber body panels (unpainted). Would you use graphene as a base before a PPF or after a PPF? Or Would you Recomended ceramic coating as a base or after a PPF? I read graphene last longer than ceramic, but heard the opposite from some detailers...my guess is because of the thickness for the ceramic products? any insight would be greatly appreciated.

The coating and spray coating are good, but man - yes the solvents are insanely toxic and dangerous. First time I used the spray coating I had a headache for 2 days.

I have the regular graphene spray and the advanced graphene spray but have yet to get the concentrated liquid graphene coating. I want to try it. I do have a question about something Adam said. He said that neither product will leave white residue on plastics etc but I know that isn’t true in all cases since it leaves white residue on the spray nozzle the bottle comes with. So much so that it will not even spray without messing with it the second time I used it. Even though after using the first time I wiped the nozzle off clean. Any advice on how to keep the spray bottle nozzles from clogging?

Regarding the overall science of ceramic protective coatings: I like how if you feel lazy, the hybrid ceramic allows you to merely wash the vehicle, spritz some (for me, McGuire's hybrid ceramic, 20 bucks) on, and wipe the water off, and your car is waxed. Done! your vehicle is protected for perhaps five to ten times it gets wet. However, to be thorough, you apply, wipe with a cloth to spread, then another cloth to wipe it clean and you get a more durable, shiny, result. In other words, the hybrid ceramic allows versatility. Having said as much, and, enjoying the research more than the work, Adams does seem to be the best, most durable, meaning either choice these dudes offer seems best. Lastly, ceramic PROTECTS plastic, glass, any surface, so you do not create problems as you apply it. Say you put too much on.. Do you mind if it protects? (I do not care). You wash the vehicle a couple times, the cloudiness vanishes. You still protected your vehicle. I care a lot about paying A LOT for a vehicle and protecting its finish. That is all. Carry on.
