Default DIY How to Ceramic Coating for more gloss

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=byKcYsEyWGk

Learn how to apply a ceramic coating to your car! In this video, I show you all the steps needed to properly prepare your car’s paint and how to protect your paint with ceramic coatings. Ceramic coatings are a form of paint protection, like carnauba waxes and paint sealants, but they have better durability. Carnauba waxes typically last 2-3 months and synthetic paint sealants last 5-6 months on average. Consumer level ceramic coatings last 1 to 2 years if well maintained. Professional grade coatings can last upwards of 2 years, all the way up to 7 years. Ceramic coatings are highly hydrophobic, meaning they repel water extremely well. Ceramic coatings also have self-cleaning properties, meaning your paint will keep itself clean of dirt, much more than traditional waxes or sealants. They also add a lot of gloss to your car’s paint. Here's a recap of the main advantages of ceramic coatings: - extreme durability (1 to 2 years for commercial versions) - amazing gloss - extremely hydrophobic, so water beads and sheets off the paint - self-cleaning properties make the car easier to wash - UV protection Ceramic coatings are also known as glass coatings and nano coatings. They pretty much are mean the same thing, as the main active component in them is silica (SiO2) which forms a glass layer on your car's paint, giving it protection and gloss. For the purposes of this video, I will apply what I believe to be one of the best ceramic coatings (one of the best glass coatings) available to the public, the CarPro CQuartz UK Edition on my own BMW 435i xDrive Gran Coupe M Sport. Gyeon Quartz also make a great ceramic coating in the form of their Mohs coating. Both products are easy to apply, easy to remove. If you follow the steps in this video carefully, you'll learn how to apply a ceramic coating to your car and you'll protect your paint with ceramic coatings. ►Here are some links to the products used in this video, as well as my recommendations to high quality user friendly ceramic coatings: ►US buyers: CarPro CQuartz: http://amzn.to/2tSoLEr CarPro CQuartz UK Edition (50 mL kit): http://amzn.to/2tov53i CarPro CQuartz UK Edition (30 mL kit): http://amzn.to/2toxjzn CarPro Eraser (IPA mix): http://amzn.to/2uiQFun CarPro Reset shampoo: http://amzn.to/2unUJsV CarPro Reload silica spray sealant: http://amzn.to/2tosYMG CarPro IronX iron remover: http://amzn.to/2totvOC CarPro TarX tar remover: http://amzn.to/2sZVlkQ The Rag Company 365 GSM microfiber towels: http://amzn.to/2uiQBe0 Gyeon Mohs ceramic coating kit: http://amzn.to/2toMdG9 Gyeon Can Coat spray coating (easy to apply): http://amzn.to/2t08Fpo Gyeon Bathe shampoo: http://amzn.to/2unItIS Gyeon Prep (IPA mix): http://amzn.to/2tomHkf Gyeon Cure spray sealant: http://amzn.to/2tUYZO8 Gyeon Iron remover: http://amzn.to/2toHYKr Gyeon Tar remover: http://amzn.to/2unQQEd
