Adam's Polishes UV Ceramic Paint Coating 50 ml - 9H Ceramic Coating 5+ Years of Protection | Stronger Than Car Wax | Apply After Car Wash, Clay Bar, Car Polisher | Car Detailing Boat RV Motorcycle

This ceramic is the real deal. The kit comes with everything you need to fully coat 2 midsize sedans. After all the prep work, your car will look gorgeous, then this coat can do its job to maintain that. This stuff is not meant to hide or correct imperfections, you have to put in the work to fix your paint. If you don’t fix any imperfections, they’ll be frozen in time under the ceramic.As directed, wash, fully dry, clay, machine polish (preferably DA), and then remove all the residue from the previous steps. The ceramic coat goes on smooth, comes off with a tactile drag and begins to buff out to a smooth glass-like surface. Took me the better part of a day from wash to complete coat. That’s the reason it costs so much to have ceramic applied by a pro.Take your time and apply the coating to a small area at a time. On a mid size sedan, I’d say a quarter to a third of the area of the hood at a time, or the top half of a door. Don’t get it on glass, trim, or tail lights; it won’t come off without a fight. Masking off those things is a good idea. Don’t try to do too much at once. This stuff flashes pretty quick in warm weather and is ready to be hand wiped no longer than 30 seconds. Get ahead of yourself, and you may miss application or wiping off of a spot. If it cures, it’s on there for good. The only way to correct it is to machine polish it off of the whole panel, remove all compound residue and reapply.If you’re not ready to do all this, stick with wax. Ceramic is not forgiving, but well worth it in longevity compared to true wax or polymer waxes.

Not too shabby for the first timer to achieve a mirror like finish on a seven year old car that has never had an auto detailing or professional car wash.It’s pretty easy to apply and wipe off. One minor grip is that the UV flash light does not come with batteries. So I dd the coating without the aid of the UV flash light.

Having been around the team at Adam's Polishes and met the man (Adam) himself in a number of different settings, I can confidently say that Adam's Polishes is the best brand for all things car-care related.Their Ceramic Coatings are no exception. This stuff comes in a great little kit, is easy to apply and work with, and provides great protection to your pride and joy. Plus, their product can be seen under UV light, which is a nice bonus.If you're looking to get started with coatings, but don't want to go full-bore just yet, I would highly recommend their spray coating. I applied it on a pad (as you would with the real deal coating) and got a solid 6-8 months of protection out of it.

I bought this to protect my 2021 Wrangler. It’s black, so I was nervous about doing this.Overall, the product is probably fine. However, the application is more difficult than it seems. I strip washed, iron decontaminated, clayed and polished all before using this kit. I prepped the surface, applied in the shade in small sections at a time, and got streaky results. Under normal conditions, the coating looks good, but when I use the UV light, you can see a somewhat streaky application.It’s probably my inexperience, but I definitely followed all of the instructions and expected better.Also, different body panels accepted the coating differently. My fenders have a slight blueish tint to them now (I am guessing from the UV chemical) in certain direct sunlight conditions. You can see they look different at different angles from the attached pictures.I may use a polish to remove the coating. Like I said, the product itself is probably fine, but I’d leave the application to the pros.

After researching several options on ceramic coatings i went with adams. the instructions are informative, and easy to understand. the prep spray is great, the silica spray i'm going to go out and rebuy- it is that amazing. i prepped my car before the coating, by washing it. then used the pre spray hours later in the garage after the car had dried. i worked one section at a time. i went slowly, the process with breaks took me about 3 hours. after i completed a section i would sit down, garages are hot. i let the coating cure for more than 24 hours. then i applied the silica spray and that stuff is amazing! while i had minor imperfections due to this being my first time using this product on a major scale, i also chose this product because i could use a polish and wax on top of the silica spray. (black light polish/ chemical guys and adams buttery wax) eliminated any noticeable issue i had. - though i only used this on my hood. everything else matches still and the look is like glass. i figured spray detailer could make it pop, but when i sprayed it on the side panels, it rolled right off so fast you could hear the plops hitting the concrete. for the side mirrors i used just the silica spray and buffed it out, the glass and rims i used the adams ceramic spray which is pink in color. though i used the applicator that came with this kit for ease of application for the windshield/ rims. all in all, it's time consuming. But! it's well worth the time spent. Notes:1.Plan on doing this when you have another car available to drive, let this product completely cure before applying any other product.2.Invest in adams towels for this procedure.3. take your time, it's not something you want to rush though.4. Paint was coated with this product only.5. Glass was coated with the thicker older ceramic spray.6. i Cerakoted my trim with the Cerakote trim kit. - i gave that review 2 stars. look elseware.7. i used a foam cannon with 1part dawn to two parts adams car shampoo in filtered water in the foam cannon to decontaminate the car.8. use the gloves so you do t get finger prints sealed in under your coating!

Works as intended. I have had it on the car for 2 months. Rainy season is here and I love seeing the beading and water just sliding right off. Application was straight forward and did not have difficulties. Took about 6 or so hours with 4 coats.

It definitely worked and made a hardy shiny coat on the car's paint, but it's expensive. Be careful when applying ut as it requires very even thickness layer all over the surface to make the paint appearance to look even. If it drops on any metal parts like window trims etc. it will damage the metall appearance. Cover it with the tape, as well as glass or anywhere it's no supposed to be at. It took me a bit to clear windows glass from that glue.
