How did the ceracote last long term? Time moves on and new products developer maybe it's time for a retest. I used me guiers hybrid ceramic polish on my bumpers with great results. Prrety sure it's not rated for it but does seem to do a fairly good job on my old toyota plastics looks almost new again and it's been a few months. Also did a nice deep shine on the paint for the little effort it takes to apply and buff up ( wipe us a better description) even made the dull windows rubbers look a lot better not new but did make me revisit this old post.

@guard13007 Год назад

Looking at the differences in immediate effect vs durability makes me wonder if the best results might be achieved by starting with Mother's, adding CeraKote on top, and then maybe adding some sort of UV protective clear coat on top of that. Or even just doing two of those steps (whether that be just the products here, or just one of them and a clear coat). Would love to see that.

from a detailers perspective the aerospace 303 is one of the best products ive ever used to protect a surface and maintain a factory finish. i dont think 303 is meant to be used as a “restorer”

It is fantastic, but he didn't apply it the way it needed to be, it works sooooo much better if it's buffed into the surface than just wet applied and wiped off

True. I've tried some of those products, and end up using a heat gun. It's the best. No chemicals, just naturally melting and solidifying works great.

Correct, but there is a slight learning curve to prevent overheating.

I understand that cooling heat treated plastic with sprayed water immediately after melting the surface locks in the initial shine, (before the gloss effect fades as the Plastic slowly cools naturally.) Not tried it myself, but believe it works, good luck! :-).

I was honestly shocked. I have a fairly new vehicle that I religiously wash and treat with the 303 and it lasts at minimum a month with a beautiful deep black gloss. I suppose once the plastic is highly porous it doesn't do as well.

@eppyz 4 года назад

Don't be disappointed. 303 I have used for many years too. It is just a different type of product than many of the ones tested here. 303 is a preservative. Its meant to keep the rubber supple and pliable over the years. With continued use, the rubber will stay in very good shape. Whereas these other products are meant to restore plastics that are already beaten. So yes 303 won't really help rubber or plastics in poor condition. So if your looking for just the gloss and the new look for an old car 303 won't be your best choice. But if you have a new car or newer car, and apply 303 often, in 10 yrs your rubber will still look the same and still be pliable. I hope I am making sense? Just different type of products for different type of uses. Also, what I like about 303 is if it gets on the paint or glass by accident, it comes off very easily. Many of these other products used especially the ceramic products are a PITA to get off paint and glass.

I've found that the best use of 303 has been on my tires, or anything rubber. Keeps it looking new and removes dirt and grime. I live in an area that gets 110 in the summer, and all the heat and dust will just dry out rubber like crazy. First time I used this on my jeep tires my neighbor thought I bought new ones.

I'm surprised that the 303 did so poorly. I use it on my car (23K miles old, garaged 95% of the time) and have had great results. It's the last step on washing and detailing. Perhaps the condition of the plastic on the truck plays a major factor. Another great video. Thanks.

@ProjectFarm 4 года назад

@errhka 4 года назад

I've found you have to go over multiple times with 303 - sometimes as many as 4 passes to get a lasting black matte finish. It seems to soak into the plastic that first swipe. However it still protects even after 1 pass which is its main purpose at the end of the day - its just not the best trim restorer for longevity

Hi. Really appreciate your thorough and no-nonsense approach to testing products. You have established a massive amount of my respect and admiration through your consistency and integrity. Did you find any aspects of the ceramic coating that were undesirable after time had passed?

@Nosfermarki 2 года назад

I watched this mostly because I did similar tests trying to find something that lasts and I was blown away by cerakote. I've seen some people say it turned their trim white/splotchy but I don't know if it was a reaction with the type of trim or if it wasn't applied correctly (if the trim was hot for example). For that reason I'd recommend testing in a hidden area before doing the whole car. I've used it on my Civic, an Elantra, and a GMC Acadia with excellent results. I actually just reapplied it on my Civic because it began to fade, but it did so just as evenly as when it faded originally. Plus it took almost exactly two YEARS to fade. I only use one wipe for my entire car so it's expensive per wipe, but not at a rate of 5 wipes a decade. I was worried about effectiveness after the remaining wipes sat in my garage for literal years, but the one I used worked just as well as when I bought it. Follow the instructions carefully and you'll be very happy with the results.

303 is more of a protecting product. I’d use it to add uv protection after using another product that restores the plastic. It’s really amazing stuff for that purpose. Also it’s a more versatile product. I’ve used it to “restore” my video game consoles and it makes them look brand new. All types of plastic, rubber and vinyl works great with 303. I’ve seen people extend the life of windshield wipers with it too lol.

303 is best used for door seals,a/c belts,serpentine belts, and windshield wipers It actually penetrates rubber and gives more life to the belts.
