I like many of you like a well maintained clean looking exterior - any opinions or experience with Ceramic Pro - which is a clear coat on paint - any comments would be appreciated.

Haven't used that. I purchased AMMO Reflex Pro and applied to both of our cars. It's not ceramic per se, but it is supposed to last 1-2 years. It's relatively easy to apply and makes the car incredibly shiny and hydrophobic. You can watch his video on YouTube explaining what it is and how to apply it.

You should post some pics. of your former 16 GS jtrue. I was always amazed at how good it looked.

There are way better coatings out there than Ceramic Pro, at least speaking overall.

Ceramic Pro is probably as good as any with regard to coating performance, but there are lot of hoops to jump through with them with regard to maintaining warranty and yearly reapplication, things that don't exist with other coatings on the market.

I have Opti-Coat Pro+ on both of my cars, and the coating is awesome, but my next car will have something different. Opti-Coat is a great coating but I think next time I will use a less expensive option.

Saw a video recently by Chicago Auto Pros, they applied 26 products to an older ES and observed the hydrophobicity after 2 weeks then 1 month. I liked the ceramic coating they used, can’t remember the full name but Mohs was part of it. Really considering that when I do my next paint protection.

Check out the vid.

I use mckees 37. Put it on my wife’s Audi and it’s parked outside daily and the coating held up for 2 years and now you can tell that the roof and trunk have lost its hydrophobic properties. Easy to use I like it. Used adams on my cobra and it’s garaged at all times and I feel like it’s not a good coating and its only been on for 3months. Recently bought armor shield for the Lexus so no review on that yet.

Made the color pop a lot but maybe the polish beforehand made a difference also.

Gyeon Mohs.. good coating.

I got the carpro uk 3.0 but haven't applied it yet.. also have the tacystem magic for ppf/wheels. Definitely better options out there than ceramic pro imo.

I've coated many cars with CQuartz UK. It's been my favorite coating for a few years now. Here is a Maxima I just did. 2 coats CQUK after a cut and polish.

I have Ceramic Pro on my 2017 GS. It was applied in June 2017. Now, it has been 3.5 years since it was applied.

The finish still looks newly waxed after washing, and displaces water like crazy. I am very happy with it.

However, my car is garage kept. I also apply either Beadmaker or SPS Graphene after washing. This seems to displace water and repel dirt even longer than the base coat of Ceramic Pro.

I have one other vehicle with Ceramic Pro, and another with Kenzo. I like the Kenzo better than the ceramic pro, but have only had the Kenzo coating for 1.5 years.
