I could prep polish and coat a car in 1 day.

I could also prep polish and coat a car for 5 days.


Speed of process shouldn’t be your main consideration. There is a meaningful and measurable difference from a job done thoroughly, versus a job rushed to turn a profit. Now if your car sits there for 4 days untouched.....that’s a different story.

Update on Xpel Wrap and Ceramic coat.
The Xpel wrap was done on the entire front clip, rockers, and around rear wheels. All the black parts on the car were wrapped in Stealth. Then the whole vehicle was ceramic coated.

I couldn't be happier! Jason at Fade to Black did a fantastic job. Extremely well cared for, contacted me daily to keep me posted. If any issues came up, he called me to confirm. Even sent photos of emblem placement before he put them on to make sure I was good with it.

Would highly recommend if in the Michigan area. Here are some of the pics

Car looks amazing and now I have peace of mind knowing its protected

Yah I do. Jason was begging me to leave my car for 1 more day so you could see the difference in the hood. I will have to swing down and check yours out one day

looks great!

did you wrap the rear wing in stealth too? I know it's a bit overkill but just so everything matches

I did not. Its very hard to tell the color difference unless you're up close. You cant see any other Satin parts when you're in the rear other than the diffuser. Wont notice it. When I get the C7 Carbon side skirts I will have those wrapped in Stealth though.

Wow, if those pics are from with in their shop it is a nice shop. Very clean and pristine which means they take time to put attention to detail.

Yes he just opened up this new shop a few months prior to my car going in. I knew it was the real deal and worth the cost the second I walked in. Highly recommend in Michigan that's for sure

Yah the more I looked into it, the longer I wanted it to take. Jason was a perfectionist and did incredible work. Anyone that gets the car back in 2 days did not get full correction or let the ceramic coating settle.
