I have Gyeon Mohs ceramic coating and LOVE it! My best friend details too and after he finished my car I was in awe. The paint is so deep. ZERO swirls. I never knew my car had so much metallic in the paint. It pops!

Joe you'll be impressed as long as it's installed properly. I'm sure your buddy knows exactly what he's doing! Can't wait to see some detailed pics

Me too. He has it curing in the garage and said the shine will come out more in the next few days. Then it's picture time.

I love it Joe! Looks really nice, and only needing one coat is awesome. What did you say the name of the stuff was? The ceramic pro stuff that is popular here requires like 4-10 coats to be set up right. Because of that it's 3k just to get it done to the body of the car.

Here it is. http://www.detailking.com/store-home...amic-coatings/

I just received a bit of an education on the coatings. Here it is.

Its considered a Ceramic based coating...gonna geek out on you, most coatings are Silica based....with quartz suspended in resin.. Some use more silica some use less (more slica=more gloss)....OGC is Slica carbide based....slica carbide with other chemicals can be a base for ceramic....I like it cause its easy to apply and can be applied to almost every surface ....

Lol. I'll take that. Thanks. I really look forward to having to touch the paint a lot less now. I can put a swirl on this car by waking to close to it. Lol
