Nice. Just got the Ceramic Pro Silver package last month. Time will tell if it was worth it.

I'm a huge fan of ceramic coatings. I had been looking to do Ceramic Pro but everyone in my area wanted to charge me the BMW tax that does it. (My buddy with a Model 3 got quotes and they were all $300-$500 less than my car even though those cars have more surface area?)

The most reasonable local detailer usees a coating I hadn't heard of before but he stands behind it and they seem to be starting a following. It is System X Diamond Ceramic. My favorite part of it so far has been on the wheels, my wheels are still as clean as they day he did them! (At least without putting my face right up to them)

He recommends an annual some kind of annual follow up application as well which he said is only $100 - $150, I'm wondering if he just uses one of their lower end coatings for that annual application, I wasn't completely clear so we'll see next year.

^^ The follow up visits are usually kind of a 'topper' product like a silica spray. Not additional ceramic coating, but something that helps keep a barrier on the car from the base coating. It's a spray/wipe product (easy labor) but usually more expensive from a product perspective.

Specs are half ways down the post!


Washing it has been much easier because it never really gets that dirty, other than brake dust which rinses off pretty quickly now. Time will definitely tell if it was worth it or not. But for $500, and what I've seen so far...it's worth it to me!
