How to Ceramic Coat your Car at Home (DIY) 

Thanks bro and word of advice don't ever do a face reveal

​@@toxicresultsofpain7328most people already knows what he looks like tho .. but anyways good advice😅

Plz make more vids

What polisher did you use?

@@JoseHernandez-jg4xc , it has the Ryobi One+ colors/design.

It takes about 6hrs to fully ceramic coat a dirty car properly by yourself. That is a lot of work but totally worth the results which lasts years.

@@willsrestorations man's malding

@@willsrestorations stay mad

@@chrisfixhey Chris this is a pretty straight forward short video but ever thought about making a longer one ?

​@@willsrestorationsThe hell is wrong with you? Just because you're slow and lazy doesn't mean others are. I've done a full wash, detail and ceramic to my car in 4 hours and my best friends detailing business does the same on bigger cars in 4-6.

You should see my car that is parked under the tree... RIP. It's like target practice to them!

hahahaha🤣🤣🤣

Oh nooo! Lol

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

​@@chrisfixwell, I suppose since the ceramic coating helps protect the paint from their acidic poop, I'm gonna coat mine. I can't get mad at birds tho lmao

There are few videos on his channel where his face is visible from car mirrors that he forgot to edit in the blur but yes this is a auto RU-vid channel not a vlog

There are videos of him in the driftstang where you can clearly see his face 🤣🤣he’s never really tried to hide his identity

bro is a wanted fugitive or is planning to be one

You must not have him on tik tok then

LoL true I still go back to 10 year old videos of Cris for car repairs and when I see his face I get a big smile on my face becouse it's super rare

Coming up. Just had a bit of a breakthrough with my computer so I’m hoping I can finish editing the rest of the video without it continuously crashing.

@@chrisfix i feel like you dont care but am very thankfull to you, am a 13 years old boy that his dad got a car but my dad doesnt take care abt it , i learned how to change oil,remove rust,use bondo,amd super cleaning the car , I am very thankfull because you give us those information witha clear steps

I'm so excited for ittt

​@@RegentLynxhe prolly does but he can't play cuz of how his pc crashes

Ironically, the process is called detailing

@@The1Music2MyEars not to mention he skipped the cutting phase and went straight to the polish 😂

Then a bee smacks into your newly ceramic coated bumper and puts a tiny pit in it, and then, slowly from there...

haha a Texas winter thats funny

so like 60f

@@elbagofcarp should have seen last years was one if the worst if not the worst

sooo, a mid-west fall? 😂

Wait a minute….!!! Texas winter? 😂

Years ago I worked for a car auction detailing cars for dealers who brought them in. It was fun but sometimes horrific.

So the pro stuff is a little better but in my opinion, unless you have a really nice car, it’s worth doing it yourself.

Never forget that the man putting on the coating also needs to get paid. Its expensive but if done correctly pretty time consuming

The guy charging you top dollar likely does it all the time and is good at it, so your result will be far better. Plus it’s a business so at the end of the day, needs to make money.

So how much does the pro charge?

@@alouisschafer7212 how long is a piece of string ?

Glad you found the video helpful! Thanks a lot!

It does matter. Traditional ceramic coatings are designed for Automative painted surfaces, not for Car Wraps. You would instead have to purchase and use Wrap specific Ceramic coatings instead.

I will for sure! I wasn’t sure if there was enough interest but looks like there is.

@@reeseboi8704 He is actually asking: Is it better to paint a car, or is it better to wrap it?

@@charlesc.9012 I was actually asking if ceramic coating changes on a wrap vs. paint!

@@chrisfix Thank you! I just got a new car, and I don't know how to take care of the exterior / I also might want to get it wrapped so should I get ppf / ceramic coating now(paint) vs later(wrap) is also something I'm personally dealing with!

That’s awesome man! Glad to hear it!!!

Correction and coating is far more involved and detailed then this. About 100x more. These videos give your avg home DIYr false sense of confidence with jobs like this then they end up ruining their car or burning through the clear.

I do interiors even in the sun just can’t let it sit long. Never had any issues. Paint I agree tho the metal gets too hot too fast

Not to mention the dust and general floating debri in the air getting on the car prior to the application.

That’s awesome!!!!

Thanks a lot!

Glad to hear that. I am honestly nervous trying them because it is different than what I am use to but I hope they get some info across in a short time period and I will follow up with a full video for those who are interested!

@@chrisfix Shorts are perfect for you. It's superfast useful info to consume. Love it!

Hey man, I just got into detailing like me en and my buddy are starting are own company. Any chance I could ask a couple question since you got some more experience then me?

A 20 litre gallon. 💀

​​@@vinayakpatil355I had a stroke trying to figure out what "20 litre gallon" means

@@321findus Pun intended.

Thanks a lot and nice job on the first comment!

Ceramic coat your bicycle 🚴 😊

Thanks a lot! Can’t wait for the next long video to get done so I can post it! You guys are gonna love it!

@@chrisfix I love Chris, especially when I'm searching for a detailed how-to. I don't get many notifications, probably because I watch so much other stuff that the algorithm favors my most frequent vids. So shorts help to get them showing up again.

Im lazy too and my car is not nice enough for all that work. I just bought some optimum no rinse wash and wax to try for the first time

Hi

It works amazing! Just make sure you take your time with the prep. It’s like painting. It’s all in the prep!

@@chrisfix I almost ordered this just now. I'm just starting out as a professional detailer, been diy forever (I'm 30). I read there claims and many reviews but let's make my question non-brand specific, *is the quality/longevity really there?* I wanted to dip my toes in ceramic so I tried Nu-Finish ceramic and though it did provide water beading, I was not very impressed with the shine and wasn't convinced it would last very long, so I concluded that my old standby Nu-Finish polish (relay does last almost a year...in Maine!) was a better product. It has downsides like the white residue on trim. Right now my primary customer is a used car dealer and there focus is on speed, so right now my options for them are: 1 Soap with wax in it, wich I hate. 2 Rain-x spray wash (silicone), which I like but only lasts about a month. 3 Nu-Finish polish, because both 2 and 3 look better than the Nu-Finish ceramic (granted in my test I did not clay bar or polish). For non-dealer customers I would like to offer the full monty but am apprehensive about advertising that it will last 2-7yrs depending on the product chosen. I'd like to offer this in the next six months and that is not enough time for me to test products on my own vehicles, plus that is a large investment in time+matt. I don't know if you have any time for these types of questions, I have looked through the comments here to see if you had already answered them but only saw you say that the professional products where a little better. So if you are willing to take the time to respond it could save me a lot of time and research. Thank you.

Lol 😂

I mean yes they do douse the car in something that makes it shiny and makes water bead off but its crap ofc and lasts a week maybe. I buffed mine with some ceramic sealer coat thingy from Sonax I got it for like 15$ its their best paint sealer and sheeesh that stuff works way too good for a 15$ product. Now I wanna go all out do a full paint correction, machine polish and then proper ceramic sealant.

"Ceramic coating" has zero ceramics in it so the laugh is on anyone using 'ceramic coating' full stop. If you rubbed ceramic anything on paint it would instantly scratch it.

You know nothing of what your talking about, ignorance at its finest. The "ceramic" in coatings and other protection products is called silicon dioxide which is SIO2. From little amounts in SIO2 spray sealants to large amounts in ceramic coatings. ​@@bigduphusaj162

Thanks!

Oh man I have some cars I havent shared with you guys yet so stay tuned. My DriftStang and Hummer are prob my two favs.
