CERAKOTE® Professional Ceramic Coating for Cars, 60 ml Kit | 5-year paint protection, high-gloss hydrophobic finish, UV and chemical resistant, pro-grade coating

This is my second time coating a vehicle with Cerakote Ceramic coating but my first time following the full process of letting it cure for 6 days. I probably went the extra mile because I didn't drive it at all after application, until day six, since the instructions say for maximum cure time don't expose to moisture for 5-7 days. It sat in the garage. I washed my car with CarPro Reset, and also used an iron remover + Clay towel to fully decontaminate my Infiniti, after not hand washing since last October (life happens). The product goes on quickly and easily. Ready to wipe off after 3 mins, but I took about 5. I was shocked at the slickness. Cerakote also gives your car a very deep gloss. Do not put this on your glass, since this is not made for glass. I did use another product as a topper, as recommended for all Ceramic coatings however the gloss you see in the photos was the exact same level before I put the topper on. Cerakote by itself gives the car an incredible deep shine. I also rolled through a 15 second rain burst but by the time I got home the car was totally dry. Water can NOT stick to your paint. It just glides right off or evaporates, so its very effective at maximal hyprophobicity if thats what you are looking for. I plan to maintain this amazing coating with P&S Bead Maker and a quick wash every 2-3 weeks.

Fantastic beginner-friendly ceramic coating – Cerakote delivers great results at a fair price I’ve been using Cerakote products for a while now, and they have yet to disappoint. The quality is consistently excellent, and the pricing is very fair compared to other options. A little goes a long way — just two small bottles were more than enough to coat my small SUV. What I love most is how forgiving and easy it is to apply, especially for beginners. Ceramic coatings can be tricky (wrong paint correction, leaving it on too long or too short, etc.), but Cerakote makes the process much more straightforward. You simply watch for the “beads of sweat” to appear, and you know exactly when it’s time to buff it off. No guesswork! The results are impressive: the paint looks like glass, everything from dust to bugs wipes off easily, and the extreme hydrophobicity is obvious every time it rains. Water just beads up and rolls away. Overall, this is a very good, clean product that delivers professional-looking results without the stress. Excellent value — highly recommended!

The directions say one small bottle will do a normal car. I questioned that. But I just did a new Tesla Y Premium, and had about 1/5 left. As to application, i found it easy to do the entire car (not the glass roof) in under 3 hours. I am 93, and if I can do it, anyone can. Product went on easily, waited 5 minutes, gave it a wipe, then polished. Really easy and excellent results. The results look great; I can see myself in a door. Wow. Hoods tend to be hard to get streak free, but not this product, went on and off leaving NO marks. I do have a few suggestions. Follow the directions. I first looked at a video on line. worth doing. I used a package of micro towels. I changed the first wipe with the finish wipe, and replaced the finish with a new towel. My towels had edging, but I was careful to use only the flat portions. The resultant shine is great. How long it lasts, how it looks after a few days, not certain, but for now a fine result. Now it has cured for 4 days (instructions say one day) maybe I will longer results. Says it works on glass, but I just bought a glass product, as a Tesls has a LOT of glass to coat.

Although I am a first time user of ceramic coating I can say I am impressed. I used this on a 2019 Honda Civic (red) and a 2016 BMW 5 series (dark blue). I had enough to do both cars with a little bit left over. As always the prep is very important. I washed, clayed then polished. Then, wiped down with a mix of distilled water and alcohol. Application took about an hour and a half per car. Do not let other reviews freak you out! It's not hard to do. After a little time you will see what is the right amount of time to leave it on before the wipe down. You might see a rainbow effect and or it's getting a little bit tacky. That's when it's time. The shine gets even a little better after a couple days. The best way I can describe the results is it looks like putting another coat of clear paint on it. Impressive shine and repels water, dirt and helps cleaning bugs off. If you do have some left over you can store it in the fridge. It lasted 6 weeks for me before I took it out and used it again. With what I had left over I did my hoods again. Wow! Just wow! Ultra shine! If you just have one car to do you may want to do a second coat for shine like you've never seen before.

It's been around 6 months since I applied this to my (new) car. I also added a coat of Cerakote rapid ceramic paint sealant on top of it as an added layer of protection. All in all, it still beads water very well and makes washing the car a piece of cake. However, I did notice two areas where it looked to have worn off so I ended up removing the coating from those panels completely with a polisher and re-applied. I keep it in a garage so it was strange to me that I needed to do maintenance on it so soon. I have another car that I coated using the Gyeon Mohs/Skin combo. It's been about a year and a half and it's still going strong, so if you're considering it as a choice you won't go wrong there either. The Cerakote costs a good bit less and was also easy to apply. Plus, I like that Cerakote actually makes there own stuff.

I’m a first time user of any ceramic coating. After researching many brands & application methods on internet & utube, I was confused & a little concerned on attempting it. Decided on Cerakote based on mid price range & testimonial reports on ease of application. As most reports state, the preparation is critical to get a good final result. I used on a new Ford Maverick PU and did all prep steps 1). Handwashing with neutral PH soap to remove dealership spray wax & hand dry 2) I used Turtlewax brand Iron remover with a heavy rinse & soft towel hand dry. 3) clay bar with plenty of lube over all painted surfaces including wheels. Did a section at a time with micro towel removal of lube before going to next section 4). Suppose to buff paint but with a new vehicle I had no paint issues so this step was not necessary for me. 5) Handspray (50/50 mixture of alcohol & distilled water) & immediate wipe dry with microfiber towel to removal any lube residue from clay lube from step 5 Application of Cerakote product I sectioned vehicle into 12 sections (roof-engine hood/grill- 2 front fenders - 4 doors- 2 bed sides - tailgate & wheels. I used applicator provided with kit. Put 4 or 5 drops on applicator pad & wipe on painted surfaces with a cross hash pattern. Product goes on very easy. Add more product to pad when it feels like it is dragging (you can easily feel it) I applied to a section ( typically 2 minutes to apply) & set timer on my phone for 3 minutes. Then I applied product to next section & had time to get wiping & buffing microfiber towers before timer went off. I wiped with one towel & buffed with second towel in same pattern as applied when timer went off. Complete both sections before applying product to next two sections. Product does not dry on applicator pad between applications so I was able to use same pad for entire vehicle. Just be sure not to drop it or contaminate pad between sections. Product was easy so wipe off & buff. You can easily tell by slickness which section had product applied to. I’m very pleased with the application & results. I can’t testify to durability but initial results as good. If you’re a first time user don’t let all the talk worry you. Take time & followed instructions for product & you will be happy with results

Note that this is my first experience using this type of product. I applied to a white 23 ram 1500, all external painted surfaces. I did this in the shade of my garage from the cooler morning and into warmer in 85 deg+ temperature with low humidity. I did the strip wash, clay bar, iron out, alcohol prep- no polishing. The application went well, uzing a little more than 1 1/2 bottles. White is probably one of the safer colors to not see any application issues, but I didn't noticed any. Watch a few u-tube videos on application techniques. It is not difficult just set a timer, or two. While I was not expecting to save a lot of the chemical, I was concerned during the process if I would have enough with the rate of use as I went. I do expect I would use this product again, but may try an application pad that absorbs less coating. This will probably require adding the coating to the pad more often but also mean a little less waste. Also, having an extra pad in case one is dropped on the floor would be nice. I have some other products that give good results on glass, but after seeing this on my paint I am interested to try this on my windows. It is hard to objectively see a before / after without pictures- but my perception is a noticeable shine and very slick touch. When I wash the truck I am pleased with the hydrophobic properties and ease of cleaning. I will not get as many opportunities to wash the truck over the winter in the pacific northwest, but it will be a good test. I believe it will pass with a high grade based on what I have seen so far. Overall, I expect to use this again and would recommend it to friends.

Amazing product very good and protect your car paint. I travel trough farm areas so, lots of flying bugs at night this makes it very easy to wash your vehicle I should had get this done sooner because I literally destroyed two other vehicles by applying bug removal spray now with this ceramic coat I don’t need other chemicals only car soap …. ps: Read the instructions before applying once you put it, any detail mistakes it is a process to fix it. So take your time

Exactly what you expect from a ceramic coating. Water beads off. Ease of application and u don’t need a whole lot. The vehicle looks brand new and has a glossy shine. Use for personal and customers and can tell you it hasn’t had any complaint back. After this is applied cleaning is easy. Just a once over with some shampoo and foam and no problem.
