What have you done to your CX-5 today?

[NelsonLewis]

Washed and waxed it.

Looks great. Would love to wax that thing with some Pinnacle and watch it really pop off...

Once you go black....You realize every other color looks off because of the black trim around the wheels and across the bottom. Hehehe

What the hell is ceramic coating? Sounds.....Fragile.

Had Cquartz U.K. Put on mine about 15 months ago, still look fantastic and sheds water like nobodies business.

You would love the place here that does it, they do EVERY single car at the BMW Performance Center. People come from 500 miles+ away to get it done. I plan to go by and price quote a few pieces, along with the ceramic window tint.

They use XPel products...

XPEL is clearbra right?

Opticoat is a paint sealant, not a film

That link is for a pre-cut film that is stuck to the vehicle. The Ceramic coating we are talking about is put on like wax/polish...

Sorry then, but the company I'm referring to does both...

If you take the BMW Performance Center delivery here, they will include the coating from the company I listed and have her ready to go. A lot opt for this, and it's the best time to do it also because the paint has to be pristine to apply...

I talked about ceramic coating and the benefits in comparison to regular professional detailing with the car preparater of my trust a month ago and will let him do it in late summer. He highly recommend it for every car.
Usually you can calculate double to three times the price of a professional detailing outside. It takes a few hours around half day and needs various chemicals and polisher how I understood.
I anyways highly trust this guy since a while so if he suggests me to do so and a few others of our group also did it, then I will put some money by side every month till late summer and then have it done for next winter.

Cheers 101

I'm sure he did. It ain't cheap, and makes the installer a pretty penny...
