DIY Detail Ceramic Gloss<\/a> is a spray-on ceramic coating that promises a quick and easy way to add shine, protection, and slickness to your car’s paint. But does it live up to the hype? I took the time to give this product a test and refresh the existing coating layer on my vehicle.<\/p>\n

Pros:<\/h2>\n

Easy to apply:<\/strong> Ceramic Gloss is very user-friendly. Just make sure the surface is clean, apply the Ceramic Gloss to an applicator or the surface, and wipe away with a microfiber towel.
\nEffective:<\/strong> Ceramic Gloss does a good job of adding gloss and shine to paintwork. It also leaves behind a slick surface that can help repel dirt and water, while lasting up to 6 months.
\nPleasant scent:<\/strong> Unlike some other products, Ceramic Gloss has a pleasant scent which makes application that much more enjoyable.
\nAffordable:<\/strong> Compared to other spray on ceramic products, Ceramic Gloss is a very affordable option. At $19.99, it is a budget-friendly way to give your car a nice shine.<\/p>\n

Cons:<\/h2>\n

Durability:<\/strong> While Ceramic Gloss is easier to apply than traditional ceramic coatings and lasts a good amount of time for the type of product it is, it should not be confused as a standard coating. Traditional ceramic coatings can last for years, while Ceramic Gloss may only last a few months.<\/p>\n

Overall:<\/h2>\n

DIY Detail Ceramic Gloss is a good option for car owners who want an easy way to add shine and protection to their paintwork. It is easy to use, affordable, and leaves behind a great-looking finish. However, if you are looking for the most durable protection possible, you will need to look into a true ceramic coating application. If you do go that route, Ceramic Gloss is a fantastic topper for more gloss, depth, and protection.<\/p>\n

Here are some other things to keep in mind:<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  • Be sure to wash your car thoroughly before applying DIY Detail Ceramic Gloss. Any dirt or contaminants on the paint will prevent the product from bonding properly.<\/li>\n
  • Use a microfiber towel that is clean and high-quality.<\/li>\n
  • Apply Ceramic Gloss on a cool surface and preferably in a shaded area. Avoid applying it in direct sunlight.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
