I look at the pics Merciless58 posts and I can see the swirl marks in his front bumper from miles away. They couldn't even two-stage polish your paint for $1K?

End of rant...










Also agree 100%. No disrespect to detailers, but applying these products (gyeon mohs is about $100 here in Canada) isn't exactly rocket science. And nor is paint correction with a decent polisher, couple pads and compound.

Also, how is a ceramic coating 'warranty' defined anyway?? It doesn't prevent scratches or chips. Is there a measure of how well it beads water?

Always laugh when detailers say things like "I get three months with this wax", etc. Total BS.

It's honestly unbelievable so many folks are falling for this stuff. A fool and his money, right?
