How to Ceramic Coat your Car at Home (DIY)

Learn how to ceramic coat your car at home. There are many great ceramic coatings out there. I am using Armor Shield iX which is DIY friendly and very easy to apply. It provides at least 2 years of protection and makes your paint extra glossy. To ceramic coat your car, just like with painting, the prep is the most important and most time consuming steps.

1. Wash/clean car
2. Clay bar and iron decon car
3. Polish car
4. IPA wipe-down car (Isopropyl Alcohol)
5. Ceramic coat car

I love watching channels that have anything to do with detailing. I did it for many years at a car dealership but the dealership never seem to take this art form. Very seriously. But we tried our best and enjoyed learning new things. Headlight restoration is probably my favorite.

My brother wants to get our car professionally ceramic coated but it's really expensive. I told him we can buy a full polishing kit and ceramic coat it ourselves for half the price. Dude didn't want it. Gotta show him your video to change his mind.

I think this is the most easiest and most helpful video I have ever seen on how to do this process!!!

I helped my grandfather ceramic coat his car and it looks awesome. It was a black on top and grey on the bottom painted car and now it looks like a mirror on the roof. I am planning on doing the same to my mother’s car if i can convince her to.

Make sure ya pre wash then spray with an iron remover. Sometimes a clay doesn’t get the embedded iron in it. Then clay after. If possible coat in a garage so dust doesn’t fall on it then leave indoors away from contaminants for 8-12 hours at least. 🫡

Also using a 3 towel method will ensure they don’t get high spots. With the first towel you’re leveling the carrier agents so you push coating onto the adjacent panel sometimes which causes high spots. If left untended they lol have to be polished after.

Please make a full video about this!! like paint vs wrap if it matters, links to the stuff you used, etc.

Love this stuff, been watching ever since the driftstang came on the channel and this made me find my love for cars, im 14 now and want to work with cars when i grow up

[carcrazyguysa]

Its best to apply ceramic coatings indoors inside a garage. Doing this outdoors should be avoided especially in heavy sunlight or when its really hot.

Listen to some and it's as if only the detailing gods can do this. Thanks for showing us exactly how it's done.
