X2 McGuires, Nu Finish and Rejex. This sounds like a fantastic product, but I know I am not going to do the clay thing. It wears me out just waxing the entire MH.

Where did you get it done for that price? Also, what do your wash it with now?

Does this stuff work on top of unpainted gel coat fiberglass or only on top of paint? Thanks for any info!
OldNavyGuy, as i was told, yes you can apply it to unpainted gel coat fiberglass. you just have to prep the surface(ie polish out any scratches) basically make it look new before you seal it in the ceramic coat.
you can apply this stuff to almost anything. i'm thinking of applying it to the shower doors. should be a good test

I had a mobile detail company apply it and whenever I wash the coach, I use McGuires Gold wash/wax in a spray applicator (attached to the water hose) and very little effort brushing, since water/dirt roll right off. They do make a maintenance wash treatment for the ceramic coat if desired, I have it and haven't used it yet as the water sheds so unbelievably with just what Ive been doing.

Ceramic Coating 2008 Ventana

I coated my 2008 Ventana myself. Took 5 days of hard work but it turned out great!

This is my first post, how do I add a picture?

I am on an iPad app. On this there is a little + on the left side of the message box on the bottom. When clicked it brings up a reply window with a camera icon on the bottom. Click on the camera and select the item from your photos.

What do you do if you need to buff out tree scratches after the coating is applied?
