Color mismatch
Liked: really great kit with all the needed tools and towels for painting.
Disliked: the color itself didn’t match the factory color, even though I researched the exact name. It came in two different paint containers and even when mixed it looked like white-out on my car.
This is for small little
This didn’t work on my car. It was expensive and my car doesn’t look any better.
Colore non adeguato
Speravo di trovare un prodotto che potesse realmente risolvere il problema delle piccole righe. Il kit è molto ricco e le spiegazioni sono chiare, purtroppo il prodotto, pur avendo il colore coincidente con quello della vettura su cui dovevo applicarlo, risulta poi essere molto piu scuro e tendente al nero e non al blu metallizzato della macchina. il risultato non è pertanto soddisfacente.
Colore nel mio caso, più scuro dell’originale.
Nel mio caso, (Audi grigio oolon) il colore risulta essere più scuro... al limite lo consegno e lo riordino... un altro articolo per un mio amico (nero metallizzato), è risultato buono!
Premetto che la macchina ha due anni e sempre in garage, quindi non soggetta ad usura decennale di un colore al sole...
Hit or miss with the adhesion, color matches well!
Followed instructions, paint only adheres some of the time. Will try again. Color matches well though!
Smooth original finish on a 2" x 3" spot not achievable with this kit.
Color matching was correct but the tiny brushes furnished with the kit cannot produce a smooth finish. My chipped off paint spot was about 2" x 3". Paint dries just about as fast as it leaves the brush leaving a splotchy finish. I am going to try some fine grit wet sand paper followed by rubbing compound and wax.
Vernice buona, ma è necessaria una mano esperta
La vernice è buona. L'applicazione semplice, ma il risultato non è soddisfacente. Forse è necessaria la mano di un esperto.
Buyer beware of color is specific
Quality paint was qreay and process was easy to do....
Very DISAPPOINTED in color.
Unfortunately my color was not a match...Dodge blue streak pearl...even after mixing and shaking the paint...it was a little too dark...
Going to have to buy another touch up kit somewhere else
Good coating
Alright so I’ll try and be quick. The prep work sucks, if you’ve never FULLY detailed a car this is going to be a real project, possibly days long. Coating seems good but I only had enough of the pre treatment to do one coat. If you have a big vehicle it’s going to put you in a jam. I’d also recommend going over to the tag company and ordering some real microfibers because the ones in the box are garbage. MAKE SURE YOU LEVEL OFF THE SURFACE, EVERYWHERE. Even in places that are easy to forget like right under your mirror or else you’ll end up with a nice rainbow spot. Up until this point I’ve on my bused synthetic sealants which last around 9 months and while harder to put on are more forgiving. We’ll see if the durability is better with the coatings or if I’ll switch back to the sealant. If this lasts over a year I’d buy it again.
Forgot to wipe off a spot, ruined clear coat on a brand new car.
I was able to do 2 cars with the amount they sent me and both came out looking incredible. Though on the second car I was getting tired and forgot to wipe a spot and didn't realize and it completely ruined the clear coat. I am going to have to get my deck lid resprayed if I ever want it fixed.
Wow!!! Look at that shine
Gave it 4 stars as i just applied it 2 hours ago. Easy to put on and wipe off, the prep is the hard part of the whole process. You gotta correct the paint prior to using this so be prepared to spend some time on that. I didnt even use a quarter of it sonim goingbto add a second coat in the morning. I have 2 other cars to do...hopefull i can get 2 done 2 coats with this bottle. We will see how it holds up
Update: 19Jan2019 just wet wife's car to see beads and it left ALL kinds of water spots that I can't get out...shine is good but water spots like a mofo
I was expecting it to be more slick on the ...
I was expecting it to be more slick on the paint surface and more hydrophobic. It does however give an incrediable gloss and shine, especially on black plastics.
No longevity
Bought in a pinch, Looked good for a cpl months but does not perform like a quality Ceramic Coating does. Great price but not for us pros.
Instructions vague
Instructions are very vague.
Not worth the cost or effort.
This is my 3rd order of this particular product, the 1st batch I had was quite exceptional. The last two have not held up as they should. The water beads but not sheets off like the 1st batch did.
I am a former professional car detailer for more than 22 years know how to read instructions and how to prepare a finish properly and this product is not holding up the way it should even from the outset.
Works as Expected-Need Experience
You need some experience with this, not for amatures. Buffs out perfect.
An honest opinion
Very nice packaging. It seemed to go on easily. Things that need addressed include the following. I have half of the ceramic coating left after doing a 4runner but I'm completely out of the prespray. How are the portions that off? The prespray bottles' pickup tube was incredibly long and didn't sit at the bottom of the bottle so spraying was difficult as it got low. I had to cut the tube to continue. What in the world is up with the large green cloth that's provided??? It's not lint free nor does it wipe the product off easily. Seriously, it was the opposite of lint free. So much shedding and it stuck to the paint. I used store bought lint free microfibers instead. Speaking of, I had to use 3 towels to wipe the product off and that wasn't enough. It made it difficult to get all the haze out unless the towel was a clean one. The application sponge was thick which helped handling it but made it difficult in tight quarters. Finally, the instructions and user guide were vague. Nicely printed but the product wasn't the same as in images. Also, instructions were hard to understand when talking about hood temps and wetting a towel. Do you wet with water? If so, should it be distilled? Things like that. I hate being that guy but I didn't have the best experience. We'll see how it holds up.
great product at the begging but after one winter I really don't see it working anymore
I was happy with it at the start, was working on car for 8 hours to apply it perfectly. Then I leave my car in garage for 2 days. First months it was great, but now when the winter passed, water is spreading again just like before when I didn't have this on my car, so really, if it would cost maybe 50% less and would be easier to apply it it could be perfect product. This way I have some mixed fellings.
Good for some
Honestly the finish did even hold up for half of the winter. I’m sure in a warmer state it would’ve done fine. Wish I’d have spent more on a coating especially after all the prep work.
Detail
Not as good as I thought bit would be for the price it cost won't buy it again not worth the money there are better and cheaper products out there
