Default Advice on a coating company

Hi guys,
I am new here and the primary reason why I registered today is that I need some expert advice on this:
I plan on having my car coated and doing my homework to find the best product to use, I came across this company called IGL Coatings (here is their facebook page
and website ). I want to know if any of you have ever tried their products and if they are any good. I am all for helping new companies to grow but I want to make sure they do a proper job first so if you could help me, that would be awesome!
(I must say that given the size of the forum I did not check everything so I am sorry if there was an already existing thread on this)
Thank you in advance!

Hi Fleroy!

I've checked their social media and some recommendation online and apparently, they are good! Their main argument is their eco-friendliness so if you're into that, I think they are the ones to go for!

Hi Senor Honda!
Sorry for the late reply, I was on a weekend and I did not check my emails until I came back.
I wanted to have my car coated with a ceramic coating, it is similar to Paint Protection Films but it is easier to apply hence a bit cheaper! It also provides hydrophobicity which PPF lack most of the time. I was told that compared to paint protection films, it is also easier to replace and provides a much better shine!
I thought of going for a ceramic coating from IGL because most coatings are 9H in hardness (that is pencil scale) and they have a 10H coating so yay for the extra protection, if I am not mistaken the name of this coating is Kenzo.
Do you have your car coated too?
