I just bought a new car and unfortunately, it's Black. I always said I'd never buy a black or white car, but two out of the last three cars I've puchased have been white and black - mainly because I love a deal more than I dislike white or black. Since I have a black car, I figured why not make it shine? I did some research on ceramic coatings and chose the Adam's Advanced Graphene Ceramic Coating kit, mainly because many reviews mentioned that, for a DIY kit, the product is quite forgiving compared to other ceramic coatings. I'd like to tell you that the application is easy - and I guess if you are talking about applying the ceramic coating itself, it's not that bad. If you want to do the whole project right, it's not easy. I spent a total of 16 hours with probably a total of 1 hour of break between two days putting this on a two-week-old car. My process was: Day 1 (About 6 hours): Hand wash Dry Iron Remover Rinse Dry Clay Mitt / Bar Day 2 (About 10 hours total) Rinse the clay bar lubricant off of car Dry Water spot removal (1:1 vinegar / water spray) Dry Spot polish a couple of spots with minor scratches Surface prep those spots again Apply the Graphene Ceramic coating to all exterior surfaces - painted metal, bumper covers, grille, mirrors, all exterior glass including windshield, door glass, and "Skylounge" (Panoramic Roof). I chose not to do a full paint correction, as the car's paint was in decent-enough shape for me, and with my DIY/Inexperience on operating a polisher on a brand new finish - the risk outweighed the reward here. I did spot polish by hand a few spots that had minor scratches in the clear coat with some polish I had laying around and those spots came out perfect. Applying the coating itself is easy - put a few drops / small line on the applicator pad and rub in a "crosshatch" pattern - that is, cover the area you are working side to side, then again in the perpendicular direction. You wait for the area you just applied to "flash" - that is, the coating will turn a rainbow color and then you can see it start to dissipate. That's when you "level" (wipe) it with the included Microsuede towel. It said to wipe lightly, but I used what I would say is medium pressure, and I had excellent results. After each section was done, I went over it with the included plush towels and it took off all of the remaining solvent, leaving a surface that is smooth as glass. Depending on time and temperature, it only takes a couple of minutes - maybe 5 minutes to complete each section you work on, starting from applying the ceramic to finishing with the plush towel. The big things you have to watch out for with ceramic coatings is high spots. I looked and looked, and I had one or two on the whole application, which I attribute to using medium pressure on the leveling phase and taking my time - this isn't a process you want to rush. If you do find a high spot - which looks like dried product on the surface of your paint - just apply a bit more ceramic coating to the applicator and go over it - the solvent in the ceramic coating will basically "rehydrate" the high spot and you can wipe it off like the first application. It is difficult to see the rainbowing on my Black Sapphire paint. I had to really watch for it, and even with LED lights in the garage and using a supplemental LED worklight, it was very hard to see the rainbowing. I timed what it took in sections I could see easily and used that as a guide for when to start leveling other sections I could not see. The included UV flashlight was a neat idea, but effectively useless on my black car - it just lit up everything purple. I mean, if the coating is fresh - like not even rainbowed yet, you can kind of see it highlight with the UV light - but I really didn't find it provided any benefit. The other thing that you have to know - WASH ALL TOWELS before using - including those included with this kit, and any towels you have - especially new towels. Use Woolite, or do what I did, and I used whatever my wife washes her bras with - it's for ultra-delicates. They will leave lint all over your finish, which is annoying. Even after washing, the super plush towels would lint, but it would wipe away pretty easily. You have to keep the car dry for 24 hours, but I'm going on vacation so it's going to cure in the garage for 6 days. We'll see how it looks when I get back, but all signs point to it looking amazing. I was amazed at how little product I used to cover a BMW i5. The included bottle was 30ml, and I bet if I used 7ML that would be a liberal estimate. My buddy who really nerds out about this stuff says that once it's open, it will likely start crystallizing in the bottle - so I guess it's time to start marathon coating things (bikes, lawnmowers, my wife's car, etc.) Overall, this is a great DIY kit - **IF** you take the time to prep your surface properly. Next time I'd pass on the UV Flashlight kit, as I didn't find it very valuable. (The picture of the bottle of product shows you how much I used for the full car - and the spot on the last photo is from my hand, not a high spot from application) Read more
