    One pro tip if you're really ocd or just very unsure about your ability to consistently cover all the needed areas, you can get some white banner paper and tape it up underneath your windshield and that will allow more light to actually reflect back to you and see the UV tracer a bit on the windows. It's not as good as a completely opaque surface but it's something that helps.

    Much better video on how to use this product. Great job! I can't explain why people are only getting 7-months from this product. I myself, live in Arizona where it is 120 degrees all summer long, my 2006 Dodge Ram 1500 has never been garaged and sits outside in the baking sun all day long. I used/installed this coating well over a year ago and it's still performing the same as the day I installed it (only 1-coat). PREP-WORK is the key to any brand(s) coatings life. Any and all coating MUST be maintained (just a fact), also the least amount you touch the paint/coating the longer it'll last. Here's a huge tip: STOP USING that insane 2-bucket wash method (it does sell more buckets and grit guards, but it doesn't work as well as you think it does or it's advertised) and instead use 1-clean-soapy-wash-bucket (if you can't do a touchless wash) and use multiple wash mitts and NEVER return them back into the clean soap bucket, that way your wash buck never sees 1 speck of dirt. Period. I use 8 to 10 double sided wash mitts (soaking in wash bucket) only when I need to do a contact wash. Divide the car/truck into sections for each 2-sided mitt to wash and wash the lower part of vehicle last. Follow up with a graphene or ceramic detail spray 1 or 2 times a month. If I get 5-years from this coating (with the heat I'm in) I'll be happy. Again, THE PREP-WORK IS THE KEY TO LONGEVITY for any wax, sealant, or coating. The bottom-line is, if you don't want to put the time and effort into it, don't coat your vehicle! Buy this kit and their Graphene Detail Sray together. Their Graphene Shampoo... Not so much or I won't buy that yet. I've requested they use this product on an uncoated car to demonstrate how good it performs or leaves protection...I'm still waiting. Their video of the Graphene Shampoo shows the shampoo used on a coated car; this only shows me the coating is still working. Now for the direct question: Does Adam's Polishes (or their manufacture) back or have a warranty on this coating?

    I don't understand the other comments either. I'm actually going on 9 months with the original graphene coating and it's still performing like day 1. Strip wash, iron decon, clayed, 1 step polish with Sonax PF, paint prepped and coated. Then applied the Graphene Spray Coating as a sacrificial topper. Since then I've been washing it weekly/bi-weekly with either Reset/Graphene Shampoo/Uber rinseless, then either GDS or GCS3 as a drying aide/topper, and iron decon every few months. Maintenance is still key with coatings! And I use the 1 bucket method as well! It saves time and is definitely safer than the 2BM.

    ​@@beamisLittt Yes! Most don't do the heavy lifting prep work. I've also used Auto Fanatic products to help me with the touchless washes. If you can dry with a leaf blower that's even better. Remember the less you touch the paint, the less chance of scratches and swirls. Also when I must do a contact wash, I only wash in the same direction as the wind would flow over the vehicle, same with drying except for windows. Keep up the great job you're doing. If you don't really see much iron... dilute your decon chemical down a bit or use less often. If you're seeing a lot of brake dust kickup, on your next pad swap try the Wagner ThermoQuiet (TQ) brake pads. That's what the Corvette guys are running to keep their wheels a lot cleaner. Take care man.

I always get compliments on how nice the car looks. Once a month I hit my car with your Ceramic Boost product to enhance the shine.

    Maybe a dumb question because but I'm new to the ceramic coatings. But, can you add spray wax coats on top of the ceramic coating? Also can you add more layers of the ceramic coating every year or does it not need either? I live in an area where the State covers the roads with salt in the winter and I do a lot of surf fishing and I have hard water at my house. That being said, I typically wax my vehicle over 5 times a year to keep the water spots off the vehicles and protected from salt. I know it may sound dumb but I'm new the ceramic coatings and all and the vehicle detailers I know don't use them just need some insight and direction please.

    Hi Mark, for best results, the Graphene Ceramic Coating should be applied to the bare polished paint. If you apply it onto a wax, it will only bond to the wax layer, so durability could be greatly reduced to possibly only a few months rather than years. We would recommend using our white Polish and a White Foam Pad to remove the wax layer, then Surface Prep to remove all polishing oils to leave a bare finish, then apply the Graphene Ceramic Coating.

    Hi there, indeed graphene ceramic coating the inner barrels of wheels can make the wheel weights adhesion much weaker. If you buy a new set of tires or wheels, we recommend having the tires mounted and balanced first, then apply the coating. Or if you are replacing tires, you can machine polish the inner barrel to remove the ceramic coating, then reapply afterward. Another option is to let your tire installer know, and they might be able to dull just that small area with an abrasive cutting compound, alcohol prep, etc to make the adhesive on the wheel weight stick better.

You can use our regular pink Detail Spray no problem since it is a polymer spray, but we would recommend against using wax products since they are different chemistries than the Graphene Ceramic Coating. Wax will not hurt the coating, but could detract from the hydrophobic behavior of the coating layer. Our Graphene Detail Spray would enhance the coating even further and be a better option than a quick wax or detail spray.

    Hi Steven, our Graphene Detail Spray is a perfect companion product for our coatings. We recommend using it on a clean surface every 3-4 washes or 1-2 months, whichever comes first, as maintenance to keep the coating performing its best. Coatings unfortunately will not completely prevent water spots, but they will reduce water spots and make them much easier to clean up afterward, since the coating level is attempting to keep the water spot from etching into the vehicle's painted clear coat.

    Hey AVP, no they're actually two very different products. Surface Prep is a final wipe-down spray with alcohol and other surfactants to remove any remaining polishing oils and leave the surface completely bare to apply the Graphene Ceramic Coating. Detail Spray should not be used before you apply the coating, since it has polymers and a slight bit of protection - so it would not allow the Graphene Ceramic Coating to bond to the clear coat to its full potential.

    Absolutely not lol. You’re going to need to use multiple towels. The more, the better, really. You will see fresh towels wipe down and get the final buff easier. Also throw away all the wipe off towels after use as they are no longer good.

    The graphene ceramic coating can be exposed to water after 24 hours of curing, but we recommend waiting 5-7 days before washing with soap and water to allow it to fully cure.

    Public service announcement 📣 if your thinking about getting this for a full size 4 door pick up truck. This one bottle will not do the whole truck. I just applied it to mine and ran out. It done every thing other than the. Rims,back glass, rooftop, one side mirror, and one step rail. Luckily i purchased the spray coating as a back up. As a just in case and glad I did. Although it’s not the 7 year coating. But atleast something will be on them panels I did not have enough to finish.

    Hi there! One 60ml bottle of our coating should be plenty to do a full size 4 door truck - paint, glass, and wheels - so it sounds like you may have poured a bit too much on the applicator for each follow-up panel. You'll want to load up the applicator somewhat heavy at first since it is dry, but once you have some coating in the applicator, you can use less on additional panels. I'll usually have about 1/3 of a bottle left after coating a full size truck.

    Depends on the size of the vehicle. We recommend to use the suede towel only to feather the coating and level it, then wipe with the plush towel to remove all of the residue. That is why we include 2 of each towel in the kit.

    @@fecss one suede towel will usually be enough to lightly feather the coating and level it out, but I like to have at least 2 borderless grey or 2 single soft towels for wiping away the residue. 1 plush towel might be enough, but it will depend on how thick you apply it, and how well you fold the towel for wiping the residue. If you fold the towel into fourths, that will give you 8 working sides on that towel to hopefully get through the whole sedan, but as the towel absorbs more and more residue, you will see that it can smear the coating around and leave high spots. That is where the second clean plush towel will come in. Many detailers will do a 3-towel method for removing coatings - suede to barely feather and level the coating, one plush to wipe away the residue, and a second plush towel to do a final wipe on the panel.

    Hi Marc, we do apologize about the issues. High spots can be tricky and can be caused by a few different factors. Temperature and humidity in your garage play a big role. High humidity levels will typically cause the coating to flash and become tacky much more quickly than low humidity, so you have a shorter time period before you need to remove the residue. Lifting the applicator on and off of the surface while applying can also lead to high spots, since a heavier concentration of coating will touch the surface each time you lift it off of the vehicle and place it back down, so we recommend trying to apply to a section or panel in one smooth motion, without lifting the applicator. How you wipe with the towels can also potentially leave high spots. If you are pressing down into the towel with your fingers, that creates uneven pressure points on the surface that could leave smears or streaks, so it is better to wipe with the towel using your palm or side of your hand for more consistency. Using multiple towels is also recommended, since they will build up more and more coating residue as you move onto new sections of the vehicle. Wipe the panel first with the Suede Microfiber Towel included in the kit, then wipe it a second time very thoroughly with one of the Single Soft Towels. Hopefully these tips will help out with the next vehicle you may apply our Graphene Ceramic Coating. The more vehicles you coat, the more intuitive it will become!

    @@AdamsPolishes I really appreciate the reply. I did learn as I went along and high spots became less and less of an issue. The problem for a DIYer like me is that I will not have the need to coat another car for a while. So, I must re-learn what I learned before. Regardless, I think I should have started with a more forgiving coating, like your Ceramic or one from another company. However, I needed the latest and greatest, so chose this graphene coating....actually the ADVANCED one. Again, I appreciate the reply. I love some of your other soap and detailer products.

    Why didn't you use a Iron Remover?

  • @AdamsPolishes

    @AdamsPolishes

    2 жыл бұрын

    Hi Moises, using an Iron Remover is certainly a good option to do even heavier decontamination of a vehicle, before preparing to machine compound and polish the surface. This is especially important on lighter-colored vehicles like silver, white, light gray, and so on, since the iron particles stand out as very small orange "dots" in the paint. Claying and then compounding can remove these deposits in some instances, but we do offer Adam's Iron Remover on our website to remove iron contamination faster and easier!
