In this comprehensive guide, we’ll dissect the distinctions between these two automotive enhancements, shedding light on their purposes, thickness, protective capabilities, durability, and more. Join us as we navigate the world of PPF vs. vinyl wrap, helping you make an informed decision for your vehicle’s appearance and protection needs. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> Understanding the Basics: Clear Bra/PPF vs. Vinyl Wrap </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> PPF vs. Vinyl Wrap: Clear bra, or PPF, serves as a shield against rock chips and scratches, emphasizing protective capabilities. On the other hand, vinyl wrap is primarily designed to alter a vehicle’s appearance, offering a spectrum of options for color changes, chrome deletes, and creative accents. There are a number of vinyl wrap shops in the Killeen area, but we don’t do vinyl wrap. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Thickness Matters: PPF Takes the Lead </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> In the battle of thickness, PPF emerges victorious. PPF is about three times thicker than vinyl wrap, providing a substantial layer of defense against environmental elements and potential damage. This thickness is a key factor in the protective nature of PPF, making it a superior choice for those seeking long-lasting coverage. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Protection Against the Elements: Clear Bra Dominates </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Vinyl wrap may change the look of your vehicle, but it needs to be in the protection department. Rock chips can easily penetrate vinyl, revealing the original color underneath. In contrast, PPF is specifically engineered to halt most rock chips and scratches, ensuring your vehicle’s exterior remains pristine. This is why we decided to not offer vinyl wrap </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> Self-Healing Magic: PPF's Advantage </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> PPF vs. Vinyl Wrap. One of the most remarkable features of PPF is its self-healing properties, which vinyl does not have. Minor scratches on the surface of PPF can vanish over time with exposure to heat in Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights. This unique characteristic sets PPF apart, offering a level of maintenance-free protection that vinyl wrap cannot match. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Durability in the Killeen/Central Texas Heat: PPF Stands the Test of Time </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> When it comes to longevity, PPF outshines vinyl wrap, especially in the scorching Texas heat. While vinyl wraps may only last a few years, PPF is typically warranted for a decade. The resilience of PPF against cracking, fading, and peeling ensures that your vehicle remains protected for an extended period. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Thickness vs. Manipulation: The Trade-Off </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> The thickness of PPF, while providing superior protection, can make it more challenging to manipulate in tight spaces and around sharp edges. Vinyl wrap, with its thinner profile, offers easier installation in such areas. However, this advantage comes at the cost of reduced protective capabilities. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Installation Process: Water vs. Dry-Apply </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> The installation methods also differ between the two. PPF is typically installed using water, specifically de-ionized or reverse osmosis water combined with baby shampoo. Vinyl wraps, on the other hand, are commonly applied using a dry-apply method. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> Self-Healing Magic: PPF's Advantage </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Conclusion: Making the Right Choice for Your Vehicle </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> In the PPF vs. vinyl wrap debate, your choice ultimately depends on your priorities here in the Central Texas/Killeen area. If protection against rock chips, scratches, and the elements is paramount, PPF stands as the superior option. However, if you’re focused on a temporary change in appearance with a variety of color choices, vinyl wrap may be more aligned with your preferences. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Here at HHCC, we prioritize protection, specializing in clear bra installations. While we acknowledge the appeal of fashion paint protection films for those seeking both protection and a change in appearance, our commitment remains unwavering—preserving the integrity of your vehicle’s exterior. Choose wisely, and ensure your vehicle receives the care it deserves. <br/> </span> </p> </div> faq Clear Bra / PPF Can Ceramic Coating Restore Faded Black Plastic Trim? 2024-04-05T15:21:31Z 2024-04-05T15:21:31Z <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h1> <span style="display: initial; text-shadow: none;"> Professional ceramic car coating - how does it work? </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </h1> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Wondering how a professional ceramic car coating works and if it's right for you? </span> </h2> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> If you’re here, it’s because you’re probably wondering if professional ceramic car coatings are worth it and how they work. Of course, we think they’re worth it! The first thing to understand about professional ceramic car coating is it makes clean-up so easy. What you see in the video is System X MAX 10-year ceramic coating on the hood of our BMW i8. While we love System X MAX, all of our ceramic coatings make cleanup so much easier.  <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Ok, so how does a professional ceramic car coating work? </span> </h2> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Your paint is made out of peaks and valleys. It doesn’t look like it to the naked eye, but it isn’t a perfectly smooth piece of material. You can see it over  </span> <a href="https://www.detailingwiki.org/detailing-miscellaneous/polished-cars-stay-cleaner/" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> here </a> <span style="display: initial;">  at Detailing Wiki, which has a picture of polished and unpolished paint surfaces as viewed from under a microscope. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Automotive paint, peaks and valleys, and how ceramic coating can (slightly) prevent swirling </span> </h2> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> As you can see in the picture, or our embedded YouTube video, the way a professional car ceramic coating works, is it attempts to fill many of the peaks and valleys of the paint. When the paint is smoother, it is less likely to trap these contaminants (or pollutants).  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> This means that the paint is less likely to hold dirt, making it easier, and safer, to clean. If you recall from our other question/video, the more you have to work to clean paint, the more likely you are to scratch it. This is how ceramic coating protects against scratches. It’s a different level of protection than a clear bra, but it does add a slight layer.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-weight );"> More importantly, you’re not scrubbing the paint and less likely to damage it, with a professional car ceramic coating.  </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> BENEFITS OF PROFESSIONAL CAR CERAMIC COATING </span> </h2> <p> <br/> </p> <ul> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Easy cleanup of bugs, bird poop, road grime, brake dust </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Enhanced gloss/shine after ceramic coating (add paint correction for even better shine) </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Minor wash swirl protection due to easier cleanup </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> UV and chemical resistance from ceramic coating, which extend the life of the vehicle clear coat </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Repels water (hydrophobic) </span> </li> </ul> <p> <br/> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> How much will ceramic coating protect against scratching and swirling? </span> </h2> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> The truth is – not that much. A professional car ceramic coating provides a VERY small amount of protection, if any, against swirling and scratching. Many companies claim that it does, but it does not. It works to reduce swirling and scratching as mentioned above.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> This is especially true if you are very aggressive with your vehicle washing and drying, use improper washing techniques, or use an automatic car wash, like Today’s Car Wash or Galaxy Car Wash in the Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights area.  <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Does this mean you don't have to wash your car after a ceramic coating? </span> </h2> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> As much as I wish a professional car ceramic coating made you not have to wash your vehicle – you still do. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Even after applying a professional ceramic coating, washing your car regularly is necessary to maintain its appearance and protect the coating. The ceramic coating provides a barrier of protection against contaminants, but it is not impervious to dirt, grime, and other substances that can accumulate on the vehicle’s surface over time. Regular washing helps to remove these contaminants and prevent them from etching into the surface, which can cause permanent damage to the coating. Additionally, regular washing helps to maintain the shine and overall appearance of the vehicle, ensuring that it continues to look its best for years to come. <br/> </span> </p> </div> faq Ceramic Coating What are the benefits of having both ceramic coating and clear bra at the same time? 2024-03-29T03:28:15Z 2024-03-29T03:28:15Z <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h1> <span style="display: unset; text-shadow: none;"> Ceramic Coating &amp; PPF Benefits - Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </h1> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> What is the benefit of ceramic coating and PPF (paint protection film, clear bra) together? </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Having both a ceramic coating and a PPF (paint protection film) on a vehicle provides several benefits: </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Enhanced protection: A ceramic coating provides a barrier against environmental contaminants such as pollutants and road grime, while a PPF protects against scratches, chips, and other types of physical damage. Ceramic coating and PPF make it easier to clean, and both protect your paint somehow. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Longer lifespan: The combination of a ceramic coating and PPF helps to extend the life of the vehicle’s paint job by providing extra protection against fading, oxidation, and other types of wear and tear. Ceramic coating and PPF both have UV protection, so you are getting protection for your vehicle’s paint/clear coat from both. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Improved appearance: The glossy finish of a ceramic coating and the clear, smooth appearance of a PPF can both enhance the overall look of a vehicle, making it appear newer and more well-maintained. Ceramic coating and PPF both improve gloss, and keep it that way. <br/> </span> </li> </ol> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> What is the benefit of ceramic coating and PPF (paint protection film, clear bra) together? (continued) <br/> </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> 4. Easy maintenance: The hydrophobic properties of a ceramic coating make it easier to clean, while the clear bra/PPF helps to prevent any small imperfections or blemishes that may occur over time. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> 5. Increased resale value: A vehicle with a well-maintained paint job and added protective features is likely to fetch a higher resale value than a vehicle without them. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Ceramic Coating vs. Clear Bra <br/> </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Remember from other videos and questions and answers that clear bra is designed primarily for protection against rock chips, scratches, and other environmental damage, whereas the primary purpose of ceramic coating is ease of clean up with UV protection and very little protection. Also recall that clear bra manufacturers are generally making their clear bra / paint protection films hydrophobic – meaning, they repel water (similar to ceramic coatings). </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> SO WHY DO BOTH PAINT PROTECTION FILM AND CERAMIC COATING IN COPPERAS COVE/KILLEEN/HARKER HEIGHTS? </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> It isn’t a sales pitch to get you to spend extra money on both clear bra and ceramic. There are two primary reasons we like both (and we have both on our car). </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> At least at this point in clear bra / paint protection film technology, we still believe ceramic coating AND PPF to be superior to just having the paint protection film/PPF for bug removal and dirt removal. We have seen and worked with many major brands, from Xpel, to Ceramic Pro, STEK,  </span> <a href="https://legendppf.com/" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> Legend </a> <span style="display: initial;"> , Global Films, Llumar/Eastman, Premium Shield, you name it. And most of us installers are still encouraging ceramic coating AND PPF. When we first clear bra’d our vehicle during filming for Auto Film Mastery, we drove back from Houston to the Killeen/Fort Hood area, and still found it fairly difficult to remove bugs, even though the film was hydrophobic. The ceramic coating will also provide an added layer of protection against bird droppings (we discussed this in another article) and other hazards. Ceramic coating and PPF is definitely the way to go. <br/>   </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Most clear bra / paint protection film installations have at least SOME exposed seams. This is because most people are paying for patterned installations, which is really the industry standard for clear bra / PPF. There’s very little increased overall protection from a bulk or custom clear bra installation, but the cost and time required is much larger, and therefore the cost is much higher. We have a patterned installation on our own vehicle, and shy of a color change conversion or matte clear bra installation, we suggest the same for everyone. These edges and the very very thin layer of paint exposed will eventually collect dirt. Even if the clear bra is the best at repelling dirt, edges and exposed paint are not benefiting from that. Having a ceramic coating and PPF /clear bra makes that cleanup on the edges easier and the overall cleanup easier. </span> </li> </ol> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> WHY CHOOSE HARKER HEIGHTS CERAMIC COATINGS? <br/> </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Here at Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings, we don’t mislead you or sugar coat the benefits of ceramic coatings or clear bra/PPF/paint protection film.

This will go away (usually) as it is exposed to more sun and just naturally. Due to the fact that PPF is a wet-apply method, this is common. Please avoid trying to press down or move the water during this period. Letting the moisture evaporate naturally results in a better final appearance. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> We heat treat the edges on all PPF to attempt to avoid any lifting. In some cases, we try to anticipate where body panels might flex or what might be likely to lift and trim away or apply extra heat. If you find some edges are lifting over the next two weeks (this is the industry standard), please make note, and we will trim everything we can at once. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> We use computer software and a large plotter to print most of our body panels. We make every attempt to ensure uniformity and the smallest amount of imperfections as possible. We spend hours trimming, scanning, and doing what we can to ensure a near perfect delivery. Rest assured, if we wouldn’t want it on our own BMW i8, we won’t let it leave our shop.

We are a small business, and our relationships are the most important part of the job.  </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> On lighter-colored vehicles, dirt will begin to accumulate on the edges of the PPF. The dirt is also there on darker vehicles, but it just isn’t noticeable. The ceramic coating helps with this cleanup process, but a great tip is to use a clean, soft-bristled toothbrush to lightly brush the edges if they become too unsightly. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Using a pressure washer closer than 3ft away, especially near the edges, or with a narrow tip (25 degree or up is preferred, 0 or 15 degree could cut the PPF if the pressure washer is powerful enough and placed too close), could damage the PPF, get water under the film, or lift the edges.  </span> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Automatic car washes with brushes will scrub the ceramic coating off the film and will damage the PPF!!  </span> <span style="display: initial;"> We do not recommend even touchless car washes for PPF as you have no control over the degrees of spray, the chemicals used, etc. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> To clean the vehicle regularly we recommend using rinseless wash. We use Americana Global products (americanaglobal.com) and use code  </span> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> HHCC10 </span> <span style="display: initial;">  to receive 10% off for however long you use their products. Rinseless wash comes in 32oz or other containers, and we recommend diluting it one ounce to one gallon, so you can get 32 gallons from one container. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> All films are self-healing, meaning smaller scratches and imperfections will improve or go away entirely with heat (from the sun, etc). The films are thick, and will prevent most rock chips. However, the film is a sacrificial layer and could be damaged by a large enough piece of debris at a high enough speed. </span> </li> </ul> <p> <br/> </p> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Final Thoughts </span> </h2> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Lastly, you have chosen to protect your vehicle as much as possible! The film will last over 10 years (most automotive clearcoats are only rated 10-15 years on their own), it won’t yellow, and you should have no issues. However, the film is not impervious to water spots, bird droppings, and other things like sap. Try to remove these as fast as possible, especially within the first few weeks. If water spots do not come out in the future, you can try a mix of vinegar and water. </span> </p> <p style="line-height: 1.5;"> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> </div> PPF,Clear Bra/PPF 2023 BMW M4 Competition Clear Bra Installation Process 2024-03-27T14:59:02Z 2024-03-27T14:59:02Z <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> 2022 Dodge Charger Ceramic Coating Process in Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Our Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights area client was looking for options for ceramic coating his 2022 Dodge Charger to make it easier to clean, and quick work of bug guts. Did you know that bug guts, like bird poop, are acidic and can permanently etch a painted surface? With ceramic coating, it can still etch if left unattended, especially in the Central Texas sun during the summer – BUT – they are also easily removed. At Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings, we firmly believe that if we help make your 2022 Dodge Charger (or whatever your car may be!) easy to clean, you (and we) will be more likely to clean it. Everyone is busy, and many of us use our cars as daily drivers. Being able to easily remove contaminants means they are less likely to stay on the car long-term. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> This 2022 Dodge Charger was no different, and so we installed ceramic coating on the painted surfaces, windshield (think of Rain X on steroids!), and wheel faces. The great thing about applying a ceramic coating to wheel faces (included in all of our major ceramic coating packages) is it also makes quick work of brake dust. That’s not just important for cleaning; brake dust let to sit and dwell can begin pitting and adhering to the wheel surface, causing permanent damage. Some of these new muscle cars that are incredibly heavy, like the 2022 Dodge Charger, generate a lot of brake dust. It’s not just heavy muscle cars, it’s many new cars. Brake dust is comprised of iron and metal particles and can embed and rust on your wheel. You will still get brake dust with ceramic coating, but it will be easier to clean! <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="font-weight: var(--e-global-typography-primary-font-weight); display: unset;"> Book your 2022 Dodge Charger ceramic coating service with us in Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights! </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Did you know, you can call OR text us at 254.550.4142 or visit our contact us page!  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Apart from this, you can continue to read more about our ceramic coating and clear bra, and paint correction options below.

Ceramic coating does not stop rock chips or scratches, but it DOES, in a way, provide some swirls resistance in the sense that it requires less effort (which in turn lessens the pressure on the paint). The post 2024 Honda Civic Ceramic Coating Process in Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights appeared first on Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings. Ceramic Coating 2020 BMW X3 Clear Bra/PPF and Ten Year Ceramic Coating in the Killeen / Copperas Cove / Harker Heights area! 2023-12-21T14:13:42Z 2023-12-21T14:13:42Z <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> At Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings, we have a soft spot for BMWs with clear bra and ten year System X ceramic coatings! Yep, you guessed it – our BMW i8 has clear bra and a 10 year System X ceramic coating as well! This Killeen-area client knew it was time to put a stop to rock chips and road debris, and of course, he reached out to us at HHCC to install! Our ten year ceramic coating is quickly becoming one of our most popular ceramic coating packages as owners keep their vehicles longer. If you want to see how System X 10 year ceramic coating works when installed on top of our BMW clear bra, </span> </span> <a href="https://youtu.be/N7fJcbSFnyQ?si=1pHLgKrPKVtpiF-f" style="display: initial;" target="_blank"> check out the video on our channel </a> <span style="display: initial;"> ! </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> This BMW clear bra project began with just a front bumper paint protection film/PPF. However, after speaking with the client, we agreed that it might be better to protect the hood against future rock chips. The Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights area has the Central Texas Expressway, which always seems to be under construction, especially heading east towards Temple. It’s very easy to pick up rock chips without our BMWs having clear bra. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> We used a trick to mask some existing rock chips on this BMW clear bra job. While your first inclination might be to use a touch-up pen, we have a better method. A touch-up pen tends to be raised up, which would cause an air gap on this BMW clear bra install. A crayon, matched as closely as possible to the paint as possible (we have a massive Crayola crayon set), will mask about 70% of existing chips without air gaps.  </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> BOOK YOUR BMW clear bra and ceramic coating WITH US IN KILLEEN/COPPERAS COVE/FT.

Here are several reasons why it’s important to consider PPF: </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="font-weight: bolder; display: unset;"> Scratch and Stone Chip Protection: </span> <span style="display: unset;">  PPF is a clear, durable film that provides a sacrificial layer over your car’s paint. It acts as a barrier, protecting the paint from scratches, stone chips, road debris, and other minor abrasions that can occur during everyday driving. </span> </li> <li> <span style="font-weight: bolder; display: unset;"> Preservation of Resale Value: </span> <span style="display: unset;">  By protecting the exterior paint from wear and tear, PPF can help maintain the resale value of your Corvette. Potential buyers are often willing to pay a premium for a well-preserved, scratch-free finish. </span> </li> <li> <span style="font-weight: bolder; display: unset;"> Impact Resistance: </span> <span style="display: unset;">  PPF has the ability to absorb and disperse the energy from impacts, providing an added layer of protection against larger debris, such as rocks and gravel. This can be particularly important on the lower portions of the vehicle that are more susceptible to damage. </span> </li> <li> <span style="font-weight: bolder; display: unset;"> UV Protection: </span> <span style="display: unset;">  PPF often contains UV inhibitors that help protect your car’s paint from the damaging effects of the sun’s ultraviolet rays. This can prevent paint fading and oxidation, preserving the vibrancy of your Corvette’s color. </span> </li> <li> <span style="font-weight: bolder; display: unset;"> Self-Healing Properties: </span> <span style="display: unset;">  Some high-quality PPFs have self-healing properties, which means that minor scratches or swirl marks on the film can disappear over time with the application of heat. This can help keep the film looking new and maintaining its clarity. </span> </li> <li> <span style="font-weight: bolder; display: unset;"> Ease of Maintenance: </span> <span style="display: unset;">  PPF makes it easier to maintain the appearance of your Corvette. The smooth, non-porous surface of the film resists contaminants, making it simpler to clean compared to unprotected paint. </span> </li> <li> <span style="font-weight: bolder; display: unset;"> Custom Fit and Clarity: </span> <span style="display: unset;">  Professional installation ensures that the PPF is precisely cut and applied to fit the contours of your Corvette, providing seamless protection without affecting its aesthetics. High-quality films also offer excellent clarity, allowing the beauty of the paint to shine through. </span> </li> <li> <span style="font-weight: bolder; display: unset;"> Long-Term Protection: </span> <span style="display: unset;">  PPF is designed to be durable and long-lasting. With proper care and maintenance, it can provide protection for several years, offering peace of mind for Corvette owners who want to keep their vehicles in pristine condition. </span> </li> </ol> <p> <span style="display: unset;"> While PPF is a valuable investment, it’s essential to have it professionally installed to ensure proper fit and performance. Professional installation also helps avoid issues such as bubbles, peeling, or yellowing over time. Keep in mind that PPF is not a substitute for regular washing and detailing, but it complements these practices by providing an additional layer of protection against external hazards. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h3> <span style="display: initial;"> Aftercare products and instructions after completion of our 2024 C8 Corvette PPF &amp; Ceramic Coating Project </span> </h3> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: bolder;"> Welcome to Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings – Your Source for Premium Car Care Tips! </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: bolder;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: unset;"> At Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings, we’re passionate about helping you preserve and enhance the beauty of your beloved vehicles.

font-weight: bolder;"> Preserving Appearance: </span> <span style="display: initial;">  Regular detailing helps preserve the visual appeal of your track car. Removing accumulated dirt, brake dust, and other contaminants prevents them from causing long-term damage to the paint, wheels, and other surfaces. This is particularly important for maintaining the resale value and overall aesthetic of a high-performance car like the C6 Z06. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Preventing Corrosion: </span> <span style="display: initial;">  Brake dust can be corrosive, especially if it contains metallic particles. Regular cleaning helps prevent corrosion on the wheels, brake components, and other exposed metal surfaces. This is crucial for ensuring the longevity and proper functioning of essential parts on a performance vehicle. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Maintaining Brake Performance: </span> <span style="display: initial;">  Brake dust buildup can affect the performance of your brakes by reducing their efficiency and increasing wear. Regular cleaning helps ensure that the braking system operates optimally, providing consistent and reliable stopping power on the track. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Cooling Efficiency: </span> <span style="display: initial;">  A clean car generally has better airflow, which can contribute to improved cooling efficiency. This is particularly relevant for a track car like the C6 Z06, where proper cooling is essential for optimal engine and brake performance. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Enhancing Safety: </span> <span style="display: initial;">  A clean and well-maintained car is a safer car. Removing dirt and brake dust from critical areas, such as the brake calipers and rotors, reduces the risk of debris interfering with the braking system’s function. This is crucial for safety on the track, where precision and reliability are paramount. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Ease of Inspection: </span> <span style="display: initial;">  Regular detailing allows you to inspect your track car more thoroughly. This can help you identify any issues, such as fluid leaks, loose components, or signs of wear, before they escalate into more significant problems. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Professional Image: </span> <span style="display: initial;">  If you take your C6 Z06 to track events or car shows, keeping it clean enhances its overall presentation.

Ceramic Coating Process cont. - Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: unset;"> Applying ceramic coating to your 2022 Chrysler 300C can offer several benefits, enhancing both the appearance and protection of your vehicle. Here are some reasons why it might be a good idea: </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: bolder;"> Long-lasting Protection: </span> <span style="display: unset;">  Ceramic coatings create a durable, transparent layer on your car’s paint that can protect it from various environmental contaminants. This includes dirt, bird droppings, tree sap, road salts, and UV rays. The coating can resist these elements better than traditional waxes or sealants, providing long-lasting protection. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: bolder;"> Enhanced Gloss and Shine: </span> <span style="display: unset;">  Ceramic coatings can enhance the natural gloss and shine of your car’s paint. The coating creates a smooth, hydrophobic surface that repels water and makes it easier to maintain a clean, shiny appearance. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: bolder;"> Ease of Cleaning: </span> <span style="display: unset;">  The hydrophobic properties of ceramic coatings make it more difficult for dirt and grime to adhere to the surface. This means that when you wash your car, contaminants are more likely to slide off, making the cleaning process easier and quicker. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: bolder;"> UV Protection: </span> <span style="display: unset;">  Ceramic coatings provide a degree of UV protection, preventing the sun’s rays from oxidizing and fading your car’s paint over time. This can help maintain the color and vibrancy of your vehicle’s finish. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: bolder;"> Chemical Resistance: </span> <span style="display: unset;">  The coating can resist harsh chemicals, such as acidic substances found in bird droppings or tree sap, which can etch into traditional clear coats. This chemical resistance helps prevent damage to the paint surface. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: bolder;"> Scratch Resistance: </span> <span style="display: unset;">  While not completely scratch-proof, ceramic coatings can provide an additional layer of resistance against light scratches and swirl marks. This can help preserve the appearance of your car’s paint over time. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: bolder;"> Reduced Maintenance Costs: </span> <span style="display: unset;">  With a ceramic coating, you may find yourself spending less time and money on car care. The protective layer reduces the frequency of waxing and polishing, and the ease of cleaning means fewer trips to the car wash. </span> </li> </ol> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: unset;"> It’s important to note that while ceramic coatings offer numerous advantages, they are not a substitute for proper car care. Regular maintenance, such as washing and detailing, is still necessary to keep your vehicle in optimal condition. Additionally, the application process for ceramic coatings often requires careful preparation and should ideally be done by a professional for the best results. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h3> <span style="display: initial;"> Aftercare products and instructions after completion of our 2022 Chrysler 300C Paint Correction &amp; Ceramic Coating Project </span> </h3> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Welcome to Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings – Your Source for Premium Car Care Tips! </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> At Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings, we’re passionate about helping you preserve and enhance the beauty of your beloved vehicles.

Ceramic Coating Process cont. - Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: unset;"> Conducting paint correction and ceramic coating on a 2018 Range Rover is crucial for several reasons, especially when aiming to enhance the vehicle’s appearance and protect its paint. Here’s why this process is important: </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: bolder;"> Enhanced Aesthetics: </span> <span style="display: unset;">  Paint correction involves the removal of imperfections such as swirls, scratches, and oxidation from the vehicle’s paint. This process significantly improves the overall appearance of the 2018 Range Rover, restoring a deep, glossy finish and making the paintwork look like new. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: bolder;"> Swirl Removal: </span> <span style="display: unset;">  Swirls, often caused by improper washing techniques, can be unsightly and diminish the visual appeal of the vehicle. Paint correction addresses these swirl marks, leaving the paint surface smooth and free from distracting blemishes. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: bolder;"> Surface Preparation: </span> <span style="display: unset;">  Before applying ceramic coating, it’s essential to conduct paint correction. This step ensures that the paint surface is properly prepared by removing any existing defects, contaminants, or imperfections. A smooth and defect-free surface is crucial for the effective bonding of the ceramic coating. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: bolder;"> Long-Term Paint Protection: </span> <span style="display: unset;">  Ceramic coating serves as a durable and protective layer on the vehicle’s paint. It creates a hydrophobic surface, making it resistant to water, contaminants, bird droppings, and other environmental pollutants. This protection helps prevent future swirls, scratches, and damage, preserving the appearance of the 2018 Range Rover. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: bolder;"> UV Resistance: </span> <span style="display: unset;">  Ceramic coatings often include UV-resistant properties, protecting the vehicle’s paint from the harmful effects of the sun. This helps prevent paint fading and oxidation over time, maintaining the vibrancy of the original paint color. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: bolder;"> Ease of Maintenance: </span> <span style="display: unset;">  Ceramic coatings make the surface of the vehicle easier to clean and maintain. The hydrophobic properties of the coating repel water and contaminants, reducing the adhesion of dirt. This not only keeps the Range Rover looking cleaner for longer but also simplifies the cleaning process. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: bolder;"> Increased Resale Value: </span> <span style="display: unset;">  A well-maintained and protected 2018 Range Rover with paint correction and ceramic coating can have a positive impact on its resale value. Potential buyers often appreciate a vehicle with a flawless exterior and long-lasting protection. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: bolder;"> Professional Finish: </span> <span style="display: unset;">  Conducting paint correction and ceramic coating by using professional services ensures a high-quality finish. Professional detailers have the expertise, tools, and products to achieve optimal results, delivering a showroom-quality appearance for the Range Rover. </span> </li> </ol> <p> <span style="display: unset;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: unset;"> In summary, combining paint correction to remove swirls from a 2018 Range Rover with a subsequent ceramic coating provides a comprehensive solution for aesthetic enhancement and long-term paint protection. This process not only restores the vehicle’s appearance but also ensures that it stays well-protected against the elements for an extended period. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h3> <span style="display: initial;"> Aftercare products and instructions after completion of our 2018 Range Rover Paint Correction &amp; Ceramic Coating Project </span> </h3> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: bolder;"> Welcome to Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings – Your Source for Premium Car Care Tips! </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: bolder;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: unset;"> At Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings, we’re passionate about helping you preserve and enhance the beauty of your beloved vehicles.

In this case, a 2018 is a little past the prime time to install PPF, so we opted for a full paint correction, ceramic coating, and interior/exterior auto detailing. The post 2018 Range Rover Paint Correction & Ceramic Coating Process in Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights appeared first on Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings. 2023 BMW X3 Ceramic Coating Process 2023-12-15T00:59:00Z 2023-12-15T00:59:00Z <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Applying ceramic coating to your 2023 BMW X3 in the Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights area can offer several benefits in terms of protection and aesthetic enhancement. Here are some reasons why it’s important to consider ceramic coating for your vehicle: </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Paint Protection: Ceramic coatings create a protective layer on the paint surface, offering resistance against various environmental contaminants. This includes protection against bird droppings, bug splatter, tree sap, road salts, and other contaminants that can damage your car’s paint over time. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bold;"> Excellent </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; color: rgb(246, 187, 5);"> ★★★★★ </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p style="line-height: 1.4em;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Based on  </span> <a href="https://admin.trustindex.io/widget/logClick?pub_widget_id=129a7e020f9b0061fb26048f1d9" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> 268 reviews </a> </p> </div> <div> <img src="https://irp.cdn-website.com/f8cd5085/dms3rep/multi/logo.svg" alt="A colorful google logo on a white background"/> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> 2023 BMW X3 Ceramic Coating Process cont. </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: unset;"> Chemical Resistance: Ceramic coatings are highly resistant to chemicals, which helps protect the paint from acidic substances and harsh chemicals. This resistance maintains the integrity and appearance of your 2023 BMW X3’s paint. UV Protection: Ceramic coatings often provide UV protection, helping to prevent oxidation and fading caused by prolonged exposure to sunlight. This is particularly important for maintaining your vehicle’s vibrant color and finish. Enhanced Gloss and Shine: One of the main aesthetic benefits of ceramic coatings is the enhancement of the vehicle’s gloss and shine. The coating creates a hydrophobic effect, causing water to bead and roll off the surface, resulting in a consistently polished appearance. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h3> <span style="display: initial;"> If you have a 2023 BMW X3, do you pick the ceramic coating or do you get PPF (or both)?oth)? </span> </h3> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> PPF VS.

The hydrophobic properties repel water and contaminants, reducing the adhesion of dirt and making it simpler to wash the vehicle. This can save you time and effort in the long run. Long-Term Cost Savings: Although the initial application of ceramic coating involves a cost, it can be seen as an investment in the long-term protection of your vehicle’s paint. The coating can reduce the need for frequent waxing and polishing, potentially saving you money on detailing products and services. Hydrophobic Properties: Ceramic coatings create a hydrophobic surface, causing water to bead and slide off the paint. This contributes to the vehicle’s appearance and makes it easier to drive in wet conditions as water and contaminants are less likely to adhere to the surface. Resale Value: A ceramic-coated vehicle’s enhanced appearance and well-maintained condition can positively impact its resale value. Potential buyers often find a well-protected and well-maintained vehicle more appealing. When considering ceramic coating for your 2023 BMW X3 in Copperas Cove/Killeen/Ft Cavazos, it’s essential to follow the manufacturer’s guidelines and, if possible, have the coating applied by a professional detailer experienced in ceramic coating applications. Proper preparation and application are crucial for maximizing the benefits of ceramic coatings. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h3> <span style="display: initial;"> Aftercare products and instructions after completion of our 2023 BMW X3 Ceramic Coating project <span>  </span> <br/> </span> </h3> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: bolder;"> Welcome to Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings – Your Source for Premium Car Care Tips! </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: bolder;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: unset;"> At Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings, we’re passionate about helping you preserve and enhance the beauty of your beloved vehicles.

Here are some reasons why PPF might be important for your BMW X7: <br/> </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Preservation of Paint Quality: </span> <span style="display: initial;">  PPF acts as a sacrificial layer, taking the brunt of damage from road debris, stone chips, bug splatter, bird droppings, and other contaminants. This helps preserve the original factory paint of your BMW X7, keeping it in pristine condition. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Prevention of Stone Chips and Scratches: </span> <span style="display: initial;">  The front end of vehicles, including the BMW X7, is particularly susceptible to damage from stones and debris kicked up from the road. PPF provides a strong barrier that helps prevent stone chips and scratches, which can be unsightly and diminish the overall aesthetic appeal. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Protection from Environmental Damage: </span> <span style="display: initial;">  PPF shields your BMW’s paint from environmental elements such as UV rays, which can cause paint fading and oxidation over time. It also helps protect against harsh weather conditions, tree sap, bird droppings, and other pollutants. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Maintaining Resale Value: </span> <span style="display: initial;">  A well-maintained and protected exterior can contribute to maintaining the resale value of your BMW X7. Potential buyers often appreciate a vehicle with preserved paint and a clean exterior. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Self-Healing Properties: </span> <span style="display: initial;">  Some high-quality PPFs have self-healing properties, meaning they can “heal” minor scratches and swirl marks over time when exposed to heat or sunlight. This ensures that the film remains looking new and maintains its protective capabilities. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Enhanced Aesthetics: </span> <span style="display: initial;">  PPF is designed to be nearly invisible when applied correctly. This means it won’t alter the appearance of your BMW X7, allowing the original color and finish to shine through. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Ease of Maintenance: </span> <span style="display: initial;">  PPF makes cleaning and maintaining your vehicle easier. The smooth, non-porous surface of the film resists dirt, making it less likely for contaminants to adhere to the paint surface. This can save you time and effort in keeping your BMW X7 looking its best. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Long-Term Cost Savings: </span> <span style="display: initial;">  While the initial investment in PPF may seem significant, it can save you money in the long run by preventing the need for costly paint repairs or refinishing. Repairing paint damage can be more expensive than the upfront cost of PPF. </span> </li> </ol> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> When considering PPF for your BMW X7, it’s crucial to choose a reputable installer with experience in working with luxury vehicles. Proper installation is essential to ensure that the film provides optimal protection without affecting the aesthetics of your high-end vehicle. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h3> <span style="display: initial;"> Aftercare products and instructions after completion of our 22024 BMW X7 PPF &amp; Ceramic Coating project <br/> </span> </h3> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="font-weight: bolder; display: initial;"> Welcome to Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings – Your Source for Premium Car Care Tips! </span> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: bolder; display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> At Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings, we’re passionate about helping you preserve and enhance the beauty of your beloved vehicles.

While the decision to put PPF on your 2023 RAM 2500 ultimately depends on your personal preferences and priorities, here are several reasons why many people choose to do so: </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Protection from Road Debris and Stones: PPF provides a barrier against road debris, stones, and other small objects that can cause chips, scratches, or other damage to the vehicle’s paint. This is especially important for larger vehicles like the RAM 2500, which may be more susceptible to damage from kicked-up rocks and gravel. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Prevention of Bug Splatter and Bird Droppings: PPF can help protect your vehicle’s paint from the corrosive effects of bug splatter, bird droppings, and other contaminants. These substances can be acidic and may damage the paint if left untreated. PPF makes it easier to clean and maintain your vehicle’s appearance. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Preservation of Resale Value: Applying PPF can contribute to maintaining the resale value of your RAM 2500. The film helps preserve the original paint finish, and potential buyers may find a well-protected vehicle more appealing. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> UV Protection: PPF often has UV-blocking properties that protect the vehicle’s paint from the sun’s harmful rays. This can prevent the paint from fading or oxidizing over time, preserving the appearance of your RAM 2500. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Self-Healing Properties: Some high-quality PPFs have self-healing properties, meaning they can “heal” minor scratches and swirl marks over time when exposed to heat or sunlight. This can help keep the film looking new and maintaining its protective qualities. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Aesthetics: PPF is virtually invisible when applied correctly, allowing the original color and finish of your RAM 2500 to shine through. Unlike some traditional protective measures, PPF doesn’t alter the appearance of the vehicle. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Ease of Maintenance: PPF makes cleaning and maintaining your vehicle easier. The smooth, non-porous surface of the film resists dirt and makes it less likely for contaminants to adhere to the paint surface. </span> </li> </ol> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Keep in mind that the effectiveness of PPF depends on the quality of the film and the professional installation. If you decide to go for PPF, it’s advisable to choose a reputable installer with experience in applying paint protection films. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Aftercare products and instructions after completion of our 2023 RAM 2500 PPF and ceramic coating project <br/> </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Welcome to Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings – Your Source for Premium Car Care Tips! </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> At Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings, we’re passionate about helping you preserve and enhance the beauty of your beloved vehicles.

Living in an area without a garage, and owning a black car, you really want to do the best you can to simplify the cleaning process.

What happens with these cars (no different on this 2023 Hyundai Elantra ceramic coating job), is dust or debris gets into the paint during the painting process. The pieces are then quickly sanded out in a small area, and then compounded with a fast rotary polisher or similar aggressive combinations. However, because they are in a rush, they need to finish off the polishing with a finer polish and the correct paint correction pads – what happens is it leaves a hazy mark under certain lighting conditions, and can reflect in the sun. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="font-weight: bold; display: initial;"> Excellent </span> </p> <p> <span style="color: rgb(246, 187, 5); display: initial;"> ★★★★★ </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p style="line-height: 1.4em;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Based on  </span> <a href="https://admin.trustindex.io/widget/logClick?pub_widget_id=129a7e020f9b0061fb26048f1d9" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> 273 reviews </a> </p> </div> <div> <img src="https://irp.cdn-website.com/f8cd5085/dms3rep/multi/logo.svg" alt="A colorful google logo on a white background"/> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> 2023 Hyundai Elantra Ceramic Coating cont. </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> No worries for us or our 2023 Hyundai Elantra client, however, because we inspect and take care of these areas with a free enhancement polish before every coating. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Securing ceramic coating for your new 2023 Hyundai Elantra is a smart investment for several reasons.

A 2024 Black X6 now boasting an armor of protective film, ready to tackle the challenges of the road. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="font-weight: bold; display: initial;"> Excellent </span> </p> <p> <span style="color: rgb(246, 187, 5); display: initial;"> ★★★★★ </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p style="line-height: 1.4em;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Based on  </span> <a href="https://admin.trustindex.io/widget/logClick?pub_widget_id=129a7e020f9b0061fb26048f1d9" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> 273 reviews </a> </p> </div> <div> <img src="https://irp.cdn-website.com/f8cd5085/dms3rep/multi/logo.svg" alt="A colorful google logo on a white background"/> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> 2024 BMW X6 PPF &amp; ceramic coating process cont. </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Dealing with an oversized hood on the 2024 BMW X6 presented no obstacle for us. Armed with a 72″ roll of Autobahn Incognito PPF, we tailored the protection to fit seamlessly. It’s worth noting that our commitment to precision extends to stocking all sizes of Autobahn Incognito PPF, ranging from 12″ to 72″, ensuring a customized solution for every vehicle. As part of our attention to detail, we opted to remove the BMW logos on the front hood, enhancing the clean aesthetics of the install. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Beyond the PPF application, our dedication to enhancing and preserving the vehicle’s integrity led us to additional steps.

For this 2022 C8 Corvette ASMR ceramic coating process, what we did is something a little new – we recorded the sound with no music of the various steps in our process for auto detailing and ceramic coating a C8 Corvette. We do so many C8 Corvettes, we thought this 2022 C8 Corvette ASMR video would change it up a little bit, especially considering we have done so many red C8s in the Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights area. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> At the end of the day, despite making a 2022 C8 Corvette ASMR video for ceramic coating, we still did paint correction and standard ceramic coating, making this C8 so much easier to clean in the long run.

The careful detailing, meticulous application of ceramic coatings, and precision involved in paint correction create a visually appealing and aesthetically pleasing experience. The sound of brushes, sprays, and other detailing tools adds an auditory layer, enhancing the overall sensory experience. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Attention to Detail: </span> <span style="display: initial;">  Auto detailing, ceramic coating, and paint correction are processes that demand a high level of attention to detail.

The slow-paced, methodical movements in auto detailing videos can have a similar effect.

This will protect against all of the debris that is being kicked up as you drive along the Central Texas roads between Lampasas, through Killeen, and out to Temple (or even driving from Killeen to Austin on I35 with all of the construction). </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: unset;"> We then topped it off with a ceramic coating from SB3 Coatings, which has hydrophobic (meaning, it repels water so much easier!) properties. A lot of time we get tons of dust in the Killeen area, and now you know it will be that much easier to clean! Additionally, we covered the wheel faces with ceramic coating from SB3 Coatings, making brake dust easier to remove and prevents future pitting from stuck-on brake dust, and then we applied SB3 Coatings windhsield/glass ceramic coating to make the water repel during rain! </span> </p> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> BOOK YOUR CERAMIC COATING/CLEAR BRA INSTALL WITH US IN KILLEEN/COPPERAS COVE/FT.

We talked a lot in a FAQ article about what the major differences are between clear bra/paint protection film/PPF companies, if any, between major film manufacturers like Xpel, SunTek, Eastman, Llumar, 3M,, STEK, Flexishield, Global, Legend and more. The key takeaway is that the primary differences are in the properties of the adhesive, which installers have to deal with, but generally, don’t affect anything the client sees. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: var(--e-global-typography-text-font-weight); display: initial;"> People frequently ask about Xpel clear bra/paint protection film, and if Legend PPF compares to Xpel at all.

We used Legend PPF and SB3 Coatings to protect this vehicle against harsh Killeen area roads.

While conventional wisdom may lean toward the hood, our approach at Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings challenges this notion, and we have a Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights area client who wholeheartedly agrees. Opting for a targeted PPF installation on her 2023 Ram 1500, our client prioritized safeguarding the front bumper, recognizing it as the unsung hero bearing the brunt of road debris. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="font-weight: bold; display: initial;"> Excellent </span> </p> <p> <span style="color: rgb(246, 187, 5); display: initial;"> ★★★★★ </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p style="line-height: 1.4em;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Based on  </span> <a href="https://admin.trustindex.io/widget/logClick?pub_widget_id=129a7e020f9b0061fb26048f1d9" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> 273 reviews </a> </p> </div> <div> <img src="https://irp.cdn-website.com/f8cd5085/dms3rep/multi/logo.svg" alt="A colorful google logo on a white background"/> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> 2023 RAM 1500 PPF &amp; ceramic coating cont. </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> The front bumper emerges as the frontline warrior, facing rock chips head-on and absorbing the majority of road abuse. Unlike the hood, which might be more visible but tends to accumulate chips at a slower rate, the flat and exposed nature of the bumper makes it a prime candidate for protection. Moreover, repainting a bumper poses a more intricate challenge due to its complex structure, involving disassembly of various components such as wire harnesses, lights, grilles, and plastic pieces. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Our philosophy aligns with practicality, especially when budget considerations come into play. Rather than exclusively focusing on the hood, we recommend, and our client opted for, a targeted PPF application on the front bumper. Complementing this strategic protection, we extended the coverage with a comprehensive ceramic coating for the rest of the vehicle, including the interior, wheels, and glass. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> If you have a 2023 RAM 1500 do you pick the ceramic coating or do you get PPF? </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> PPF VS.

You’ve made a significant investment in a luxurious and stylish SUV, and it’s only natural to want to protect it. When it comes to safeguarding your vehicle and maintaining its impeccable appearance, the logical choice is Paint Protection Film (PPF), commonly known as clear bra. Let’s explore why PPF is the perfect solution for your 2024 Mercedes GLE350 AMG Line. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: unset;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: unset;"> Our choice for PPF is Autobahn Incognito PPF, a premier option for paint protection film projects. What sets it apart? It comes with a lifetime warranty that covers yellowing, cracking, and fading. This ensures that your investment in protection is guaranteed to stand the test of time, even in the face of the elements. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: unset;"> But PPF offers more than just protection; it also enhances the appearance of your vehicle.

Its hydrophobic properties repel water efficiently, making maintenance a breeze and ensuring that water spots don’t detract from your SUV’s beauty. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bold;"> Excellent </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; color: rgb(246, 187, 5);"> ★★★★★ </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p style="line-height: 1.4em;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Based on  </span> <a href="https://admin.trustindex.io/widget/logClick?pub_widget_id=129a7e020f9b0061fb26048f1d9" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> 268 reviews </a> </p> </div> <div> <img src="https://irp.cdn-website.com/f8cd5085/dms3rep/multi/logo.svg" alt="A colorful google logo on a white background"/> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> 2024 Mercedes GLE350 PPF &amp; ceramic coating cont. </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Comprehensive Protection: PPF and Ceramic Coating </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> In addition to the essential PPF installation on your 2024 Mercedes GLE350 AMG Line, we took it a step further by applying ceramic coating to various parts of the SUV.

That’s precisely what we did for a valued client in the Temple area, who recently acquired this new 2024 S650 Mustang GT. With a history of working together on various vehicle projects, our client trusted us to work our paint protection magic on his latest acquisition, and the results were nothing short of spectacular. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Our mission was clear: safeguard the front end, rocker panels, and windshield surround of the 2024 Ford Mustang GT with Paint Protection Film (PPF), commonly referred to as clear bra. But we didn’t stop there – we also applied ceramic coating to the rest of the vehicle, offering a comprehensive solution to protect, preserve, and enhance this impressive Mustang. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="font-weight: bold; display: initial;"> Excellent </span> </p> <p> <span style="color: rgb(246, 187, 5); display: initial;"> ★★★★★ </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p style="line-height: 1.4em;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Based on  </span> <a href="https://admin.trustindex.io/widget/logClick?pub_widget_id=129a7e020f9b0061fb26048f1d9" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> 273 reviews </a> </p> </div> <div> <img src="https://irp.cdn-website.com/f8cd5085/dms3rep/multi/logo.svg" alt="A colorful google logo on a white background"/> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> 2024 Ford Mustang GT PPF cont. </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> The Benefits of PPF for Your 2024 Ford Mustang GT </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> We understand that Mustang owners are passionate about their cars, and rightfully so. The 2024 Ford Mustang GT is a symbol of power, style, and performance. To ensure it continues to captivate onlookers and perform at its best, we employed Autobahn Incognito PPF, a premium choice for paint protection film projects. This PPF comes with a lifetime warranty, offering peace of mind to our client, and it features a no-fault one-time clause, further assuring protection against unexpected incidents. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> One of the key advantages of PPF is its ability to shield your vehicle from rock chips, scratches, and road debris. The Mustang GT, with its powerful presence, often finds itself on the open road, facing these challenges. PPF acts as a formidable barrier, preventing these imperfections from damaging the pristine paintwork. Whether it’s protecting the striking front end or ensuring that the windshield surround remains crystal clear, PPF is your ultimate defense. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> If you have a 2024 Ford Mustang do you pick the ceramic coating or do you get PPF? </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> PPF VS.

We applied ceramic coating to the rest of the vehicle, providing numerous benefits that ensure your Mustang remains in a league of its own. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Ceramic coating is known for its hydrophobic properties, meaning it repels water effectively. This feature not only keeps your Mustang cleaner for longer but also prevents unsightly water spots from marring the finish.

This project was particularly special because our valued client was a referral from another satisfied customer. We deeply appreciate these referrals, as they reflect our clients’ trust and satisfaction in our services. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> The 2023 Dodge Challenger is an icon in the world of muscle cars, and our goal was to ensure that it continued to stand out, even in the challenging Texas climate. The client’s Challenger was a ‘Shakedown’ model, and it came in a stunning and distinctive appearance with bold vinyl stripes. However, the Texas sun and road conditions posed challenges, including the fading risk of those vibrant stripes. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="font-weight: bold; display: initial;"> Excellent </span> </p> <p> <span style="color: rgb(246, 187, 5); display: initial;"> ★★★★★ </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p style="line-height: 1.4em;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Based on  </span> <a href="https://admin.trustindex.io/widget/logClick?pub_widget_id=129a7e020f9b0061fb26048f1d9" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> 273 reviews </a> </p> </div> <div> <img src="https://irp.cdn-website.com/f8cd5085/dms3rep/multi/logo.svg" alt="A colorful google logo on a white background"/> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> 2023 Dodge ChalleNger ceramic coating cont. </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> Enter ceramic coating, the ultimate solution for protecting and enhancing the appearance of vehicles like the 2023 Dodge Challenger ceramic coating project. Not only did this process offer exceptional protection for the car’s paint, but it was also the perfect safeguard for those eye-catching vinyl stripes. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> One of the primary benefits of ceramic coating lies in its ability to guard against the relentless Texas sun’s harmful UV rays. These rays are notorious for causing fading, especially on vinyl stripes. With the ceramic coating applied, the Challenger’s vinyl stripes were shielded from the sun’s damaging effects, ensuring that the vibrant colors and sharp lines remained intact. Our client’s Challenger continued to turn heads, and we take pride in preserving its captivating appearance. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> Another notable advantage of ceramic coating is its hydrophobic properties, making it adept at repelling water and preventing contaminants from adhering to the vehicle’s surface. This feature is invaluable in Texas, where dust and dirt are constant companions and brake dust can stick to the car. The slick, smooth surface created by ceramic coating makes it much more difficult for dirt, debris, and bugs to stick to the car. This eases the cleaning process and ensures that the Challenger retains its pristine appearance with minimal effort. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> If you have a 2023 Dodge Challenger do you pick the ceramic coating or do you get PPF? </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> PPF VS.

It resists environmental contaminants, road salt, bird droppings, and tree sap, all common nuisances that can degrade a vehicle’s appearance. This longevity ensures that the Challenger continues to shine, even under the scorching Texan sun. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> One distinct feature of this project was our decision to ceramic coat the wheels of the 2023 Dodge Challenger ceramic coating project. This addition offers a host of benefits, particularly for muscle cars known for their brake dust. By applying ceramic coating to the wheels, we’ve made it significantly easier for our client to clean off that common brake dust, which often plagues heavier muscle cars. This not only saves time and effort but also maintains the vehicle’s overall appearance. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> In conclusion, the ceramic coating applied to the 2023 Dodge Challenger is a testament to our commitment to excellence at Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings.

The ceramic coating process offers exceptional protection and preservation, making it a wise choice for anyone looking to maintain their vehicle’s stunning appearance, especially in the Texas climate.

Now, picture the perils of the road – pebbles, rocks, and debris relentlessly assaulting the front of your brand-new 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee. This is where the magic of Autobahn Incognito Paint Protection Film (PPF) comes into play, providing a shield against those pesky rock chips and scratches. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Our Copperas Cove, Killeen, and Harker Heights client brought in their pristine 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee to safeguard its paint from the frequent skirmishes with road debris that Texas highways are known for. From I35 to I14, these routes are beautiful, but they can also be unforgiving to your vehicle’s finish. PPF was the answer, and here’s why. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="font-weight: bold; display: initial;"> Excellent </span> </p> <p> <span style="color: rgb(246, 187, 5); display: initial;"> ★★★★★ </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p style="line-height: 1.4em;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Based on  </span> <a href="https://admin.trustindex.io/widget/logClick?pub_widget_id=129a7e020f9b0061fb26048f1d9" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> 273 reviews </a> </p> </div> <div> <img src="https://irp.cdn-website.com/f8cd5085/dms3rep/multi/logo.svg" alt="A colorful google logo on a white background"/> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee PPF cont. </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> The Defense of PPF </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> PPF, also known as clear bra or paint protection film, is a cutting-edge solution for preserving your vehicle’s finish. It is an invisible yet durable layer that shields your car from rock chips, scratches, and other forms of road-related damage. For our client’s 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee, PPF was the ultimate choice to stop those pesky rock chips dead in their tracks. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> We use Autobahn Incognito PPF for our gloss PPF projects, ensuring both a lifetime, no-hassle warranty and a no-fault clause, allowing for a one-time use in the event of damage. Autobahn PPF, like the protective film installed on this Jeep, is incredibly hydrophobic and glossy. This means it repels water efficiently, making maintenance and cleaning a breeze. Additionally, its glossy finish enhances the vehicle’s appearance, ensuring your Jeep continues to turn heads wherever you go. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> If you have a 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee do you pick the ceramic coating or do you get PPF? </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> PPF VS.

The emblem, typically factory-placed, can sometimes be misaligned or off-center. Our client opted for a cleaner and more customized look, embracing the sleek appearance achieved by omitting the emblem. It’s a choice that not only ensures a smoother aesthetic but also showcases the flexibility that PPF offers in terms of personalization. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> In conclusion, the 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee and PPF are a match made in automotive heaven. PPF provides a powerful defense against the ravages of the road, preserving your vehicle’s finish and maintaining its striking appearance.

However, the journey to restoring the brilliance of your vehicle’s paint can be challenging, especially if the previous owner frequented automatic car washes, like this previous owner did. This is where paint correction comes into play, an essential process to revitalize your 2021 Ford F150’s appearance, making it shine even better than when it left the factory. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="font-weight: bold; display: initial;"> Excellent </span> </p> <p> <span style="color: rgb(246, 187, 5); display: initial;"> ★★★★★ </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p style="line-height: 1.4em;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Based on  </span> <a href="https://admin.trustindex.io/widget/logClick?pub_widget_id=129a7e020f9b0061fb26048f1d9" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> 273 reviews </a> </p> </div> <div> <img src="https://irp.cdn-website.com/f8cd5085/dms3rep/multi/logo.svg" alt="A colorful google logo on a white background"/> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="font-weight: bolder; display: initial;"> Understanding the Need for Paint Correction </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> The allure of Anti-matter Blue Metallic paint is undeniable, and your Ford F150’s exterior was designed to captivate onlookers. However, the frequent use of automatic car washes can be detrimental to your vehicle’s paint finish. These car washes employ abrasive brushes that, over time, inflict damage, leading to swirling, dulling, and ultimately robbing your vehicle of its showroom luster. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Our client, the proud owner of a 2021 Ford F150, soon realized that his vehicle didn’t radiate the brilliance he had expected, especially considering the captivating nature of the Anti-matter Blue Metallic paint. That’s where we stepped in to provide a tailored paint correction solution to restore the F150’s allure. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: bolder; display: initial;"> The Paint Correction Process </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> We embarked on the 2021 Ford F150 paint correction journey by employing a highly effective and meticulous process. Our arsenal included a Flex rotary polisher and a hybrid foam wool pad, accompanied by Meguiar’s M100 bodyshop compound, renowned for its aggressive formula. This combination was precisely what was needed to address the damage that had accumulated on the vehicle’s hood, roof, and tailgate due to the harsh brushes of the automatic car wash. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> The initial step involved the application of the bodyshop compound to these affected areas. This aggressive formula worked diligently to eliminate imperfections, swirls, and dull spots that had marred the paint. It was the critical first step to rejuvenating the 2021 Ford F150’s appearance. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> If you have a 2021 Ford F150 do you pick the ceramic coating or do you get PPF? </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> PPF VS.

But our commitment to excellence didn’t end there. To seal in the rejuvenated brilliance and provide long-lasting protection, we applied a ceramic coating. This final touch not only enhanced the overall shine but also served as a formidable shield against future damage. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> The result? A 2021 Ford F150 that not only met but exceeded our client’s expectations.

It chemically bonds with the factory paint, creating an invisible but robust protective layer. This protective layer offers an array of benefits that extend the life of your vehicle’s finish and enhance its appearance. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Unmatched Gloss and Shine </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> One of the most visible and immediate benefits of ceramic coating is the remarkable enhancement of your 2023 Nissan Frontier’s appearance. The coating creates a mirror-like gloss and shine that’s sure to turn heads wherever you go. Whether you’re cruising through city streets or embarking on off-road adventures, your Frontier will exude a captivating brilliance. It’s not just a vehicle; it’s a statement of style and prestige. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Defense Against the Elements </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Your Nissan Frontier is constantly exposed to environmental challenges, from the scorching sun’s UV rays to bird droppings, tree sap, and more. These contaminants can wreak havoc on your vehicle’s paint, leading to fading, etching, and corrosion. Ceramic coating acts as an impenetrable shield, actively repelling these elements and preventing them from damaging your Frontier’s finish. This formidable defense ensures your vehicle remains unscathed, regardless of the unpredictable weather or natural elements. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> If you have a 2023 Nissan Frontier, do you pick the ceramic coating or do you get PPF? </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> PPF VS.

Having previously installed Paint Protection Film (PPF) and a ceramic coating on their striking 2024 Honda CRV Hybrid Sport Touring in a bold red, the client was now entrusting us with their 2020 Chevy Blazer. While this Chevy Blazer already boasted front-end PPF, it was in need of the ultimate shine and protection that only a ceramic coating can provide, making cleanup a breeze. This upgrade was especially crucial for a white vehicle, as it tends to accumulate dirt more visibly, particularly around the edges of PPF. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="font-weight: bold; display: initial;"> Excellent </span> </p> <p> <span style="color: rgb(246, 187, 5); display: initial;"> ★★★★★ </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p style="line-height: 1.4em;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Based on  </span> <a href="https://admin.trustindex.io/widget/logClick?pub_widget_id=129a7e020f9b0061fb26048f1d9" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> 273 reviews </a> </p> </div> <div> <img src="https://irp.cdn-website.com/f8cd5085/dms3rep/multi/logo.svg" alt="A colorful google logo on a white background"/> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> Our commitment to excellence extended to all facets of this project. In addition to applying a ceramic coating to the vehicle’s paint, we also applied it to the wheels and glass. This comprehensive approach offers several remarkable advantages that enhance the driving experience. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> Firstly, the ceramic coating on the paint ensures that dirt, grime, and other contaminants have a much harder time adhering to the surface. As a result, cleaning the vehicle becomes a simpler and more efficient process. With the high-quality ceramic coating in place, your 2020 Chevy Blazer will maintain its pristine appearance, even in the face of daily challenges. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> Moreover, we took it a step further by applying ceramic coating to the wheels and glass. This strategic move offers multiple benefits. The coating on the wheels makes removing brake dust and other unsightly residues a breeze, keeping your vehicle’s appearance top-notch. Meanwhile, the glass coating functions like an advanced version of Rain-X, greatly improving visibility during rainy weather. By repelling water effectively, the coating not only enhances safety but also reduces the need for constant windshield wiper use. </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> If you have a 2020 Chevy Blazer, do you pick the ceramic coating or do you get PPF? </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> PPF VS.

It means that your drives in the rain become safer, thanks to improved visibility and reduced water adhesion on the windshield. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> In conclusion, giving your 2020 Chevy Blazer the PPF and ceramic coating treatment is a decision that pays off in numerous ways. Not only does it preserve the vehicle’s stunning appearance, but it also makes maintenance a breeze. The advantages of ceramic coating on the paint, wheels, and glass are manifold, ensuring that your Chevy Blazer stands out on the road, regardless of the weather conditions. So, as the rainy season approaches, equip your vehicle with the ultimate protection and shine to enjoy a safer and more enjoyable driving experience. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> Aftercare products and instructions after completion of our 2020 Chevy Blazer ceramic coating project: </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="font-weight: bolder; display: initial;"> Welcome to Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings – Your Source for Premium Car Care Tips! </span> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: bolder; display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> At Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings, we’re passionate about helping you preserve and enhance the beauty of your beloved vehicles.

This included the meticulous application of PPF to not only the front bumper but also the lower bumper and the area beneath the grille. This multi-tiered approach was designed to shield the most vulnerable areas of the vehicle’s exterior, where rock chips and debris tend to inflict the most damage. Following this vital step, we administered a ceramic coating to the rest of the vehicle. This cutting-edge ceramic coating solution offers numerous benefits, including the ease of cleaning up unsightly blemishes such as bug splatters, road grime, and bird droppings. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> If you have a 2024 BMW X5, do you pick the ceramic coating or do you get PPF? </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> PPF VS.

Shortly after the completion of the protective measures, our client had a close encounter with a piece of debris flung by a truck tire while driving on the highway. In such a situation, the PPF proved its worth by acting as an impenetrable shield, saving the BMW’s pristine paintwork. Even if the PPF had been permanently damaged in this incident, our Autobahn Incognito PPF comes with a remarkable lifetime warranty, further cementing our commitment to client satisfaction. What’s more, it includes a unique one-time, no-fault clause, worth $250, which can be applied toward the replacement of a damaged panel. This clause is particularly valuable in cases where damage occurs due to environmental factors or accidents, a level of protection that goes above and beyond the standard warranty coverage. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> In today’s world, with the state of roads and construction projects causing an increase in road debris and hazards, having Paint Protection Film (PPF) installed on your vehicle is not just a luxury but a necessity. PPF offers a proactive defense against the daily wear and tear of driving, ensuring your vehicle retains its showroom shine and resale value. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> As the roads become more treacherous and unpredictable, investing in PPF for your 2024 BMW X5 is a wise choice. It not only guards against the unsightly damage caused by rock chips and debris but also ensures that your vehicle remains in pristine condition, even in the face of challenging road conditions. Furthermore, with the added benefit of a ceramic coating, maintaining your BMW becomes a breeze, as it repels bug guts, road grime, and bird droppings with ease. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> In conclusion, protecting your 2024 BMW X5 with PPF and ceramic coating is a sound decision that not only enhances the vehicle’s aesthetic appeal but also preserves its long-term value. With our Autobahn Incognito PPF’s lifetime warranty and no-fault clause, you can enjoy peace of mind as you navigate the ever-changing road conditions.

We understand that every vehicle has its unique challenges, and this C8 Corvette was no exception. The project involved meticulous paint correction to address etched-in bug residue and the telltale suction cup marks often left by the factory. Thanks to the ceramic coating, future encounters with bug residue will be significantly less troublesome, reducing the risk of any etching occurring on the car’s surface. While a clean-up regimen is still required, the application of ceramic coating streamlines the process, making it notably more effortless and efficient. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> We appreciate your loyalty as a devoted Corvette owner.

However, preserving such distinctive paintwork and preventing future damage is of utmost importance to avoid the necessity of repainting. To address this, we initiated a multi-step process. Firstly, we installed a custom PPF (clear bra) on the front bumper, which presented some slight challenges due to its intricate design. Subsequently, we conducted a meticulous paint correction on the remaining surfaces, ensuring a flawless finish. To conclude this comprehensive project, we applied a three-year ceramic coating from American Detailer Garage Venom, which serves as a protective shield to maintain the car’s aesthetics and reduce the need for future touch-ups. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> Aftercare products and instructions after completion of our 1995 Eagle Talon PPF, ceramic coating, &amp; paint correction project: </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Welcome to Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings – Your Source for Premium Car Care Tips! </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> At Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings, we’re passionate about helping you preserve and enhance the beauty of your beloved vehicles.

The latest addition to their collection is a sleek black 2023 Porsche 911 GT3, specifically brought in for the application of ceramic coating. Notably, this Porsche made a cross-country journey, arriving at our facility from New York, already equipped with a full front paint protection film (PPF). As such, the only missing element to finalize this package was the application of ceramic coating. The end result is a 2023 Porsche 911 GT3 that not only gains protection from rock chips but also attains a level of ease in cleaning that sets it apart. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="font-weight: bold; display: initial;"> Excellent </span> </p> <p> <span style="color: rgb(246, 187, 5); display: initial;"> ★★★★★ </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p style="line-height: 1.4em;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Based on  </span> <a href="https://admin.trustindex.io/widget/logClick?pub_widget_id=129a7e020f9b0061fb26048f1d9" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> 273 reviews </a> </p> </div> <div> <img src="https://irp.cdn-website.com/f8cd5085/dms3rep/multi/logo.svg" alt="A colorful google logo on a white background"/> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> Maintaining the pristine appearance of black vehicles presents a unique set of challenges, particularly in regard to preventing unsightly swirl marks. The application of protective coatings, including ceramic coatings, offers a tangible solution to this predicament. While it’s important to acknowledge that ceramic coating doesn’t serve as a comprehensive shield against scratches, it excels in making the cleaning process significantly more efficient. In the case of this 2023 Porsche 911 GT3, coated with ceramic protection, the benefits are evident. An easier cleaning process means that the vehicle’s owner can reduce the effort required to eliminate stubborn contaminants such as bug splatters, bird droppings, and general dirt. This streamlined approach to cleaning indirectly contributes to the reduction of swirl marks, as there’s no longer a need for excessive force when addressing these issues. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> If you have a 2023 Porsche 911 GT3, do you pick the ceramic coating or do you get PPF? </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> PPF VS.

With the presence of PPF, there was no need to charge an exorbitant fee for extensive paint correction and ceramic coating. It’s a testament to our commitment to providing our clients with tailored solutions that cater to their unique needs. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="font-weight: bold; display: initial;"> Excellent </span> </p> <p> <span style="color: rgb(246, 187, 5); display: initial;"> ★★★★★ </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p style="line-height: 1.4em;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Based on  </span> <a href="https://admin.trustindex.io/widget/logClick?pub_widget_id=129a7e020f9b0061fb26048f1d9" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> 273 reviews </a> </p> </div> <div> <img src="https://irp.cdn-website.com/f8cd5085/dms3rep/multi/logo.svg" alt="A colorful google logo on a white background"/> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> The exceptional care and attention the client had dedicated to maintaining her 2013 Mazda MX5 paint correction project set this project apart from more extensive paint correction jobs. Swirls, those pesky imperfections that mar the pristine appearance of an automobile, were almost negligible. These weren’t the aggressive swirls you might encounter after a typical car wash or similar experiences. As a result, we addressed the minor imperfections with a single-step paint correction approach, effectively eliminating the blemishes that had been a source of concern. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> What’s remarkable is that the initial quotes the client had received suggested a two-step paint correction process, which would have been more time-consuming and came at double the price. At Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings, we believe in providing value-driven solutions that prioritize the vehicle’s specific needs. We don’t believe in overcomplicating things when a more straightforward approach can achieve stellar results. Our clients’ satisfaction is paramount, reflected in our meticulous and thoughtful approach to every project. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> If you have a Mazda MX5, do you pick the ceramic coating or do you get PPF? </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> PPF VS.

In particular, when it comes to painted bumpers, a concern arises – the threat of unsightly rock chips. Traditionally, trucks often featured chrome bumpers, which, to some extent, provided better resistance to these chips. However, a noticeable shift has occurred in recent years, with many truck owners opting for painted body panels as standard in their packages, including painted bumpers and mirror caps. Although these bumpers retain their metal core, they are now finished with a sleek coat of paint, as exemplified by this 2022 Ford F150 PPF project. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="font-weight: bold; display: initial;"> Excellent </span> </p> <p> <span style="color: rgb(246, 187, 5); display: initial;"> ★★★★★ </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p style="line-height: 1.4em;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Based on  </span> <a href="https://admin.trustindex.io/widget/logClick?pub_widget_id=129a7e020f9b0061fb26048f1d9" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> 273 reviews </a> </p> </div> <div> <img src="https://irp.cdn-website.com/f8cd5085/dms3rep/multi/logo.svg" alt="A colorful google logo on a white background"/> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> In the case of this particular 2022 Ford F150, the owner is diligent in maintaining their vehicle’s appearance and opted for a proactive approach to protect it from the perils of the road, particularly rock chips. To achieve this, they turned to Autobahn Incognito PPF, also commonly referred to as clear bra or paint protection film. The installation of this protective film was conducted right here at Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings, a name synonymous with excellence in automotive preservation. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> The key advantage of our Incognito PPF is its ability to provide reliable, long-term protection, fortified by a lifetime warranty. What sets our warranty apart is the inclusion of a no-fault clause. This means that in the event of accidental damage, such as a rock chip piercing the film, or other non-warrantable damages, our clients are covered. The peace of mind that comes with this level of protection is immeasurable. It ensures that your 2022 Ford F150 remains in impeccable condition for years to come, despite the unpredictabilities of the road. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> If you have a 2022 Ford F150, do you pick the ceramic coating or do you get PPF? </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> PPF VS.

This unique feature means that the film possesses the capability to repel water effectively. As a result, cleaning off bug guts and other road debris becomes a hassle-free task. This hydrophobic quality ensures that the truck retains its polished appearance even when subjected to the elements, further underscoring the practicality and advantages of PPF. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> In summary, the 2022 Ford F150 PPF project at Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings stands as a testament to the practical and valuable benefits of paint protection film. With the ongoing shift towards painted bumpers on trucks, the need for protection against rock chips and road damage is more apparent than ever. Autobahn Incognito PPF addresses this need by providing reliable, long-lasting protection with a lifetime warranty, which even includes a no-fault clause. Moreover, the hydrophobic nature of the film makes maintenance a breeze, simplifying the cleanup of bug remnants and other debris. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> PPF isn’t just a protective film; it’s a comprehensive solution for preserving your vehicle’s finish and maintaining its aesthetic appeal. It’s a choice that offers peace of mind for truck owners who want to enjoy their 2022 Ford F150 to the fullest, without worrying about the toll the road may take on their prized possession. If you’re seeking a way to safeguard your vehicle and simplify maintenance, consider the value and practicality of paint protection film. Your truck deserves the best, and PPF delivers just that.

It’s incredible how our paths intersect with customers from all walks of life, each seeking the perfect solution to safeguard their beloved vehicles. One such encounter brought us a Killeen-based delivery partner who, like many others, recognized the immense value of protecting his cherished 2023 Ford Bronco with paint protection film (PPF). </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> We’ve witnessed similar scenarios in the past, such as when a 2023 C8 Corvette enthusiast entrusted us with their prized possession for PPF installation. At Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings, we’re more than just a service provider; we’re a cornerstone of the automotive community in the Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights region. Our dedication to safeguarding vehicles, be it Ford Broncos or a wide array of other makes and models, sets us on a course to meet familiar faces time and again.

Our commitment to perfection goes beyond merely applying paint protection film; it involves meticulous planning and execution. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> Before the Autobahn Incognito PPF could find its place on this magnificent Ford Bronco, we took the extra step of removing the existing vinyl graphic. This process ensures a cleaner and more precise installation of the PPF, without any interference from the textured graphic. While there are instances where PPF can be applied over vinyl graphics, the unique textured nature of this particular Ford Bronco’s graphic posed a challenge. Textured graphics can trap air underneath the film, leading to an undesirable white, mottled appearance. This is a situation we actively work to avoid. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> If you have a Ford Bronco paint protection film do you pick the ceramic coating or do you get PPF? </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> PPF VS.

This client had his vehicle ceramic coated by a company in Killeen (that did a great job, but did not offer clear bra/paint protection film at their location, and thus, the client only had awareness of ceramic coating at the time). They did an amazing job installing the ceramic coating. However, the owner became concerned about rock chips on his commutes from Killeen to Austin.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> We are unsure what ceramic coating brand was installed, as there are companies around Killeen that install Ceramic Pro, Gtechniq, Undrdog, Fireball, Xpel (they make coatings as well as Xpel Paint Protection Film) – but regardless, it was holding up well as you would expect from any major brand of ceramic coating.

Here’s why ceramic coating can be a beneficial choice for your Trail Boss: </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Superior Protection </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Ceramic coatings create a robust and resilient layer over your Silverado Trail Boss’s paint, forming a barrier against various environmental contaminants. This layer shields the paint from potential damage caused by UV rays, bird droppings, tree sap, road salt, pollutants, and acid rain. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Hydrophobic Properties </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Ceramic coatings have hydrophobic properties that cause water and liquids to bead up and slide off the surface. This feature makes cleaning your Silverado easier and reduces the likelihood of water spots or mineral deposits forming on the paint. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Chemical Resistance </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Ceramic coatings offer protection against chemicals, including harsh cleaning agents, bird droppings, insect splatters, and tree sap. This reduces the risk of stains, etching, and long-term damage to the paint. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Long-Lasting Shine </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Ceramic coatings are renowned for their longevity compared to traditional waxes or sealants. Once applied, a ceramic coating can last for several years, maintaining the vibrant and glossy appearance of your Trail Boss. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Reduced Maintenance Effort </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : The hydrophobic and self-cleaning properties of ceramic coatings make regular maintenance less demanding. Dust, dirt, and debris have a harder time adhering to the treated surface, making it easier to keep your truck clean and looking its best. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Preservation of Resale Value </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : A well-protected exterior with an impeccable paint finish can positively impact the resale value of your Chevy Silverado Trail Boss. Potential buyers are often attracted to vehicles that have been well-maintained and retain their aesthetic appeal. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> UV Protection </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Ceramic coatings provide a level of UV protection that helps prevent the paint from fading and the clear coat from deteriorating due to prolonged exposure to sunlight. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Enhanced Appearance </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : The glossy and reflective finish provided by a ceramic coating enhances the visual appeal of your Trail Boss. It accentuates the truck’s design elements and contours, giving it a polished and distinguished look. </span> </li> </ol> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> To ensure the best results, consider having a professional detailing service apply the ceramic coating to your Chevy Silverado Trail Boss. Professionals have the necessary experience and expertise to properly apply the coating, maximizing its benefits and ensuring the long-lasting protection and enhancement of your vehicle’s finish. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Aftercare products and instructions for your 2023 Chevy Silverado Trailboss Ceramic Coating <br/> </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Car care products we love: </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Drying towel(s): Autofiber Dreadnought 20”x30” x1:  </span> </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/fgKGTCu" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Cd5Y9w </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Smaller drying towel (can also be used on glass) x2 (one for paint, one for wheels): Autofiber Dreadnought Jr. 16”x16” –  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/iGlLaJr" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3iazPbX </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Wash mitt: Autofiber Zero Cuff Wash Mitt x2 (one in black for wheels, one other color for paint):  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/fLmhzzw" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WYu3Jw </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Auto detailing towels, general purpose (wiping off bird poop, quick wipe up, interior, etc): Autofiber Elite detailing towel:  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/4ThT2sp" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3IeLiSo </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Wheel drying/detailing microfiber towels, black: Autofiber Zero Edge:  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/11nhCNe" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z0GJBe </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Quick detailer/glass cleaner/waterless wash/rinseless wash concentrate: American Detailer Garage Wipeout (can be diluted and lasts a very long time):  </span> <a href="https://www.autofiber.com/products/wipeout-hybrid-waterless-wash-concentrate-quart" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://www.autofiber.com/products/wipeout-hybrid-waterless-wash-concentrate-quart </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Spray bottles for ADG Wipeout and other products:  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/ipF288H" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Q3kxT5 </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Buckets with grit guards x2 (one for wheels, one for paint):  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/fNHfK4S" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3jxjnmq </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Pre-treatment and wheel cleaner, American Detailer Garage F-Bomb diluted 10:1 (can be used 20:1 for interior): https://www.autofiber.com/products/f-bomb-multi-purpose-cleaner-gallon </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> The best wheel cleaning tool we have ever used, the Autofiber Barrel blade (reaches the barrel, between the brake caliper, and narrow spokes):  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/hcKREqM" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z0wnkK </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Foam cannon wash tools for auto detailing, the MTM Hydro PF22.2 has a wide base to prevent tipping:  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/5BDGBDa" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WE591K </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> American Detailer Garage Fuzion foaming hybrid wash (for use in foam cannon, use 2+ ounces per fill):  </span> <a href="https://www.autofiber.com/products/f-bomb-multi-purpose-cleaner-gallon" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://www.autofiber.com/products/fuzion-hybrid-foaming-wash-concentrate-gallon </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Microfiber detergent to extend the life of your Autofiber microfiber and other towels:  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/fOUG9xy" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3jBxp6B </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Optional but useful for trucks and SUVs: Autofiber Mitt on a Stick Pro.  </span> <a href="https://www.autofiber.com/products/mitt-on-a-stick-pro-adjustable-wash-tool-with-360-locking-head-long-pole-35-to-83?variant=40748237816001" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://www.autofiber.com/products/mitt-on-a-stick-pro-adjustable-wash-tool-with-360-locking-head-long-pole-35-to-83?variant=40748237816001 </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Our most favorite detailing tool we have is our Adam’s Spot-Free Water system.

At that point, it seemed like a distant dream, with estimates stretching beyond a year. Fortunately, it appears that the assembly lines may have finally bridged the gap, opening up the possibility of more 2024 or 2023 Ford Bronco PPF projects in the near future. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bold;"> Project Inception: </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Our journey with this 2023 Ford Bronco PPF project commenced with our customary meticulous preparations. This involved a thorough disassembly process, including the removal of the Outer Banks badging from the fenders. In a nod to classic Bronco heritage, we replaced it with a gracefully cursive Bronco badge, thoughtfully provided by our client. Further disassembly steps included delicately handling the front hood handles and addressing various minor components. To ensure the integrity of the PPF (Paint Protection Film) application, we diligently employed a clay bar technique to eliminate any potential contaminants that might jeopardize the end result. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> If you have a 2023 Ford Bronco PPF do you pick the five-year ceramic coating or do you get PPF? </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> PPF VS.

Here’s why ceramic coating can be advantageous for your truck: </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Enhanced Protection </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Ceramic coatings provide a durable and strong barrier that shields your Silverado’s paint from a wide range of environmental contaminants, including UV rays, bird droppings, tree sap, road salt, and harsh weather conditions. This protection helps prevent paint fading, oxidation, and other forms of damage. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Hydrophobic Properties </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Ceramic coatings create a hydrophobic effect, causing water and liquids to bead up and roll off the surface. This makes it easier to clean your Silverado and minimizes the chance of water spots and mineral deposits. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Chemical Resistance </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : The coating’s resistance to chemicals helps protect the paint from potential damage caused by contaminants like bird droppings, insect residue, and tree sap. It also reduces the risk of stains or etching. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Long-Lasting Shine </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Ceramic coatings are known for their longevity compared to traditional waxes or sealants. Once applied, they can last for several years, keeping your Silverado looking glossy and vibrant. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Reduced Maintenance Effort </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : The hydrophobic and self-cleaning properties of ceramic coatings make routine maintenance easier. Dust, dirt, and debris have a harder time adhering to the treated surface, allowing you to spend less time cleaning and detailing your truck. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Preservation of Resale Value </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : A well-maintained and protected paint finish can contribute to a higher resale value for your Chevy Silverado Z71. Prospective buyers are often attracted to vehicles that have been well-cared for and retain their appearance. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> UV Protection </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Ceramic coatings offer a degree of UV protection, which can help prevent the paint from fading and the clear coat from deteriorating due to prolonged sun exposure. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Enhanced Appearance </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Ceramic coatings provide a deep, glossy finish that enhances the appearance of your truck. The reflective surface showcases the contours and lines of the Silverado, giving it a sleek and polished look. </span> </li> </ol> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> It’s important to note that the effectiveness of a ceramic coating largely depends on proper application. For the best results, consider having the ceramic coating applied by a professional detailer with experience. This will ensure that your Chevy Silverado Z71 receives the highest level of protection and a showroom-worthy finish </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Aftercare products and instructions for your 2023 Chevy Silverado Z71 Ceramic Coating <br/> </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="font-weight: bolder; display: initial;"> Car care products we love: </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Drying towel(s): Autofiber Dreadnought 20”x30” x1:  </span> </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/eKVMDNt" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Cd5Y9w </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Smaller drying towel (can also be used on glass) x2 (one for paint, one for wheels): Autofiber Dreadnought Jr. 16”x16” –  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/iGlLaJr" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3iazPbX </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Wash mitt: Autofiber Zero Cuff Wash Mitt x2 (one in black for wheels, one other color for paint):  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/fLmhzzw" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WYu3Jw </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Auto detailing towels, general purpose (wiping off bird poop, quick wipe up, interior, etc): Autofiber Elite detailing towel:  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/4ThT2sp" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3IeLiSo </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Wheel drying/detailing microfiber towels, black: Autofiber Zero Edge:  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/11nhCNe" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z0GJBe </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Quick detailer/glass cleaner/waterless wash/rinseless wash concentrate: American Detailer Garage Wipeout (can be diluted and lasts a very long time):  </span> <a href="https://www.autofiber.com/products/wipeout-hybrid-waterless-wash-concentrate-quart" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://www.autofiber.com/products/wipeout-hybrid-waterless-wash-concentrate-quart </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Spray bottles for ADG Wipeout and other products:  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/ipF288H" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Q3kxT5 </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Buckets with grit guards x2 (one for wheels, one for paint):  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/fNHfK4S" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3jxjnmq </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Pre-treatment and wheel cleaner, American Detailer Garage F-Bomb diluted 10:1 (can be used 20:1 for interior): https://www.autofiber.com/products/f-bomb-multi-purpose-cleaner-gallon </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> The best wheel cleaning tool we have ever used, the Autofiber Barrel blade (reaches the barrel, between the brake caliper, and narrow spokes):  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/0eMk8bz" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z0wnkK </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Foam cannon wash tools for auto detailing, the MTM Hydro PF22.2 has a wide base to prevent tipping:  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/5BDGBDa" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WE591K </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> American Detailer Garage Fuzion foaming hybrid wash (for use in foam cannon, use 2+ ounces per fill):  </span> <a href="https://www.autofiber.com/products/f-bomb-multi-purpose-cleaner-gallon" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://www.autofiber.com/products/fuzion-hybrid-foaming-wash-concentrate-gallon </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Microfiber detergent to extend the life of your Autofiber microfiber and other towels:  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/fOUG9xy" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3jBxp6B </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Optional but useful for trucks and SUVs: Autofiber Mitt on a Stick Pro.  </span> <a href="https://www.autofiber.com/products/mitt-on-a-stick-pro-adjustable-wash-tool-with-360-locking-head-long-pole-35-to-83?variant=40748237816001" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://www.autofiber.com/products/mitt-on-a-stick-pro-adjustable-wash-tool-with-360-locking-head-long-pole-35-to-83?variant=40748237816001 </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Our most favorite detailing tool we have is our Adam’s Spot-Free Water system.

The first thing we did on this 2016 Ford Mustang ceramic coating project was clay bar the paint. The paint on this Mustang was very very rough to the touch and was textbook case of decontamination and clay bar to remove impurities from the paint. Over time, iron, grime, and other contaminants will embed themselves in the clearcoat at a microscopic level. If your paint makes a rough sandpaper sound when you touch it, then you know this all too well. We also used American Detailer Garage F-Bomb in our spray canister to help dislodge some of the grime. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> After fully decontaminating the paint, we applied a three year ceramic coating to the paint and exterior surfaces on this 2016 Ford Mustang ceramic coating project, restored the plastics from their typical faded gray (we see this a lot on Mustangs and Jeeps), and applied ceramic coating to the wheel faces and windshield. We hope you enjoy seeing this 2016 Ford Mustang ceramic coating project as much as our client did. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: var(--e-global-typography-primary-font-weight);"> 2016 Ford Mustang Ceramic Coating service with us in Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights! </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Did you know, you can call OR text us at  </span> <a href="tell:254-55-4142" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> 254.550.4142 </a> <span style="display: initial;">  or  </span> <a href="https://hhceramiccoatings.com/harker-heights-ceramic-coatings-contact-us/" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> visit our contact us page </a> <span style="display: initial;"> !  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Apart from this, you can continue to read more about our ceramic coating and clear bra, and paint correction options below.

Here are some reasons why you might want to ceramic coat your 2016 Ford Mustang: </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Long-Lasting Paint Protection </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Ceramic coatings provide a durable and long-lasting layer of protection for your Mustang’s paint. They are designed to withstand environmental contaminants, UV rays, bird droppings, tree sap, insect acids, and other potential sources of damage. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Enhanced Gloss and Shine </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Ceramic coatings create a high-gloss, reflective finish that can significantly enhance the visual appeal of your Mustang. The coating’s hydrophobic properties also contribute to a “wet” look, making the paint appear more vibrant and glossy. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> UV Protection </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : UV rays from the sun can cause paint fading and oxidation over time. Ceramic coatings include UV inhibitors that help shield the paint from these harmful rays, preserving the original color and finish. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Ease of Maintenance </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : The hydrophobic properties of ceramic coatings make it easier to clean your Mustang. Water, dirt, and contaminants are less likely to adhere to the surface, making regular maintenance less time-consuming and labor-intensive. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Chemical Resistance </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Ceramic coatings create a protective barrier against various chemicals and pollutants, helping to prevent chemical etching and damage to the paint. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Enhanced Resale Value </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : A well-maintained and protected exterior, thanks to ceramic coating, can contribute to a higher resale value when you decide to sell or trade in your 2016 Ford Mustang. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Protection against Environmental Elements </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Ceramic coatings help shield your Mustang’s paint from the challenges of everyday driving, road salt, pollution, and other environmental factors. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Slick and Smooth Finish </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Ceramic coatings create a smooth and slick surface, reducing drag and making it easier to maintain a clean appearance. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Customization and Detailing </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Ceramic coatings can be applied to different areas of your Mustang, including the paint, wheels, and glass.

Here’s why you might consider polishing your truck: </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Restores and Enhances Gloss </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Over time, environmental factors like UV rays, pollutants, and contaminants can dull the paint’s gloss. Polishing removes these surface imperfections, revealing a vibrant and glossy finish that gives your Ram a like-new appearance. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Removes Swirl Marks and Light Scratches </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Everyday wear and washing can create swirl marks and fine scratches on the paint. Polishing helps minimize the appearance of these imperfections, resulting in a smoother and more uniform surface. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Prepares for Protective Coatings </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : If you’re planning to apply protective coatings such as wax, sealants, or ceramic coatings, polishing is a crucial first step. A polished surface allows these coatings to adhere better, maximizing their effectiveness in safeguarding the paint from future damage. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Enhances Resale Value </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Regular polishing and maintenance help preserve your Ram’s paint condition. A well-maintained exterior can significantly impact your truck’s resale value, making it more attractive to potential buyers. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Environmental Protection </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Polishing removes contaminants and pollutants that may have adhered to the paint. By eliminating these substances, you help protect the paint from chemical reactions that can lead to paint deterioration. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Uniform Appearance </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Polishing levels the paint surface, creating a consistent texture and appearance across the entire truck. This smoothness not only looks appealing but also makes cleaning and maintenance easier. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Professional Detailing </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : If you’re passionate about maintaining your Ram’s appearance, professional detailing with polishing can take your truck’s finish to the next level. Detailing experts have the knowledge and tools to achieve exceptional results. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Personal Satisfaction </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Many vehicle owners take pride in their trucks’ appearance and enjoy the satisfaction of seeing their vehicle look its best. Polishing can be a rewarding process that helps you connect with and care for your Dodge Ram. </span> </li> </ol> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Remember that proper polishing techniques, tools, and products are essential to avoid damaging the paint. If you’re not experienced in auto detailing, consider seeking the assistance of a professional detailing service to ensure the best results and to protect your Ram’s finish. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Aftercare products and instructions for your 2021 Dodge RAM 1500 Polishing and Ceramic Coating <br/> </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="font-weight: bolder; display: initial;"> Car care products we love: </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Drying towel(s): Autofiber Dreadnought 20”x30” x1:  </span> </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/fgKGTCu" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Cd5Y9w </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Smaller drying towel (can also be used on glass) x2 (one for paint, one for wheels): Autofiber Dreadnought Jr. 16”x16” –  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/iGlLaJr" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3iazPbX </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Wash mitt: Autofiber Zero Cuff Wash Mitt x2 (one in black for wheels, one other color for paint):  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/fLmhzzw" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WYu3Jw </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Auto detailing towels, general purpose (wiping off bird poop, quick wipe up, interior, etc): Autofiber Elite detailing towel:  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/4ThT2sp" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3IeLiSo </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Wheel drying/detailing microfiber towels, black: Autofiber Zero Edge:  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/11nhCNe" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z0GJBe </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Quick detailer/glass cleaner/waterless wash/rinseless wash concentrate: American Detailer Garage Wipeout (can be diluted and lasts a very long time):  </span> <a href="https://www.autofiber.com/products/wipeout-hybrid-waterless-wash-concentrate-quart" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://www.autofiber.com/products/wipeout-hybrid-waterless-wash-concentrate-quart </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Spray bottles for ADG Wipeout and other products:  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/ipF288H" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Q3kxT5 </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Buckets with grit guards x2 (one for wheels, one for paint):  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/fNHfK4S" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3jxjnmq </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Pre-treatment and wheel cleaner, American Detailer Garage F-Bomb diluted 10:1 (can be used 20:1 for interior): https://www.autofiber.com/products/f-bomb-multi-purpose-cleaner-gallon </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> The best wheel cleaning tool we have ever used, the Autofiber Barrel blade (reaches the barrel, between the brake caliper, and narrow spokes):  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/hcKREqM" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z0wnkK </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Foam cannon wash tools for auto detailing, the MTM Hydro PF22.2 has a wide base to prevent tipping:  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/5BDGBDa" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WE591K </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> American Detailer Garage Fuzion foaming hybrid wash (for use in foam cannon, use 2+ ounces per fill):  </span> <a href="https://www.autofiber.com/products/f-bomb-multi-purpose-cleaner-gallon" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://www.autofiber.com/products/fuzion-hybrid-foaming-wash-concentrate-gallon </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Microfiber detergent to extend the life of your Autofiber microfiber and other towels:  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/fOUG9xy" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3jBxp6B </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Optional but useful for trucks and SUVs: Autofiber Mitt on a Stick Pro.  </span> <a href="https://www.autofiber.com/products/mitt-on-a-stick-pro-adjustable-wash-tool-with-360-locking-head-long-pole-35-to-83?variant=40748237816001" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://www.autofiber.com/products/mitt-on-a-stick-pro-adjustable-wash-tool-with-360-locking-head-long-pole-35-to-83?variant=40748237816001 </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Our most favorite detailing tool we have is our Adam’s Spot-Free Water system.

Eager to take the reins and become the proud custodian of this remarkable vehicle, he recognized the need to begin anew, with paint that mirrored perfection. Like many black cars that have weathered car washes and the scourge of swirls, the once-glossy surface bore the scars of time. These swirls, etched into the paint, often take on a disheartening white appearance, particularly prominent on the lustrous canvas of black. The end result is an almost grayish hue that stealthily robs the vehicle of its former splendor. While these imperfections may not always be immediately apparent, a partial polishing treatment reveals the stark contrast and underscores the need for intervention. <span>  </span> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Precision in Action: The Two-Step Paint Correction </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> To breathe new life into the 2015 Ford Mustang GT and to restore its radiant glory, we embarked on a meticulous two-step paint correction process. This methodical approach entails the removal of swirls, scratches, and imperfections that mar the surface. The aim is to unveil a finish that radiates with brilliance, bringing back the original allure of the vehicle. The difference is striking, as the paint’s true depth and vibrancy emerge from beneath the veil of imperfections. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> ADG Venom Ceramic Coating: A Protective Elegance </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> With the completion of the paint correction process, we turned our attention to preserving the rejuvenated finish of the 2015 Ford Mustang GT. For this task, we chose American Detailer Garage (ADG) Venom, a formidable three-year/36,000-mile ceramic coating. ADG Venom isn’t just about protection; it’s about elevating the vehicle’s aesthetics to new heights. Its application bestows a slick, glossy, and hydrophobic appearance, making the vehicle a sight to behold. More importantly, it simplifies the cleaning process, ensuring that bug guts, road grime, and bird droppings are no match for its protective shield. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bold;"> Excellent </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; color: rgb(246, 187, 5);"> ★★★★★ </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p style="line-height: 1.4em;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Based on  </span> <a href="https://admin.trustindex.io/widget/logClick?pub_widget_id=129a7e020f9b0061fb26048f1d9" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> 268 reviews </a> </p> </div> <div> <img src="https://irp.cdn-website.com/f8cd5085/dms3rep/multi/logo.svg" alt="A colorful google logo on a white background"/> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> What choices do you have for protection?

What you need to know 2023-09-20T13:37:16Z 2023-09-20T13:37:16Z <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> We ALWAYS take into account what the client wants with their vehicle. We polish vehicle all of the time - but only for people who need/want it! </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> Something that’s very important to understand is that you don’t HAVE to polish before ceramic coating. We used to polish every single car regardless if the client wanted it or not. And then, with automative paint often as thin as ever, we realized that polishing every single car for clients that don’t need or want it, was actually doing more harm in the long run. </span> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> TO BE CLEAR: you should absolutely polish before ceramic coating IF you want the car to have the BEST shine out there. However, you should not polish before ceramic coating just because the internet says you should. Polishing is often incredibly important and almost necessary to remove oxidation or other imperfections (such as automatic car wash swirls or similar). We simply do not require it – many people do not see all of the imperfections. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> Polish before ceramic coating summary: </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> In this video from Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings, the topic of whether or not paint polishing is necessary before applying a ceramic coating is discussed. The presenter argues that polishing is not required and provides four key reasons for this perspective. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> First, the presenter suggests that ego often drives the belief that paint must be in perfect condition before ceramic coating. However, many clients are not concerned about minor imperfections, and the pursuit of perfection can actually harm the paint by thinning out its protective layer. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> Second, the argument that paint needs to be polished for ceramic coating to bond effectively is challenged. The presenter questions why other surfaces like wheels or glass are not polished before coating, suggesting that it doesn’t make sense to single out paint. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> Third, the presenter speculates that the belief in mandatory polishing may have originated as a way to increase costs and profits for detailing companies. However, this practice may not be scientifically supported. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> Finally, the presenter argues that incorrect polishing techniques and failure to use proper panel prep sprays may actually increase the chances of ceramic coating failure. Without thorough removal of polishing residues and contaminants, coatings can’t adhere properly. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> The main message conveyed is that polishing should be done based on the client’s needs and desires rather than being seen as an obligatory step. By focusing on what the client wants and providing services accordingly, detailers can build trust and offer more tailored solutions. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings emphasizes that they love polishing but only do it when the client requests or requires it, aligning their services with the client’s best interests and budget. </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bold;"> Excellent </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; color: rgb(246, 187, 5);"> ★★★★★ </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p style="line-height: 1.4em;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Based on  </span> <a href="https://admin.trustindex.io/widget/logClick?pub_widget_id=129a7e020f9b0061fb26048f1d9" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> 268 reviews </a> </p> </div> <div> <img src="https://irp.cdn-website.com/f8cd5085/dms3rep/multi/logo.svg" alt="A colorful google logo on a white background"/> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> What choices do you have to get paint correction before ceramic coating/PPF? </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> PPF VS.

font-weight: normal;"> mentioned or mentioned correctly as the final </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: inline; font-weight: normal;"> step after polishing prior to applying to ceramic </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: inline;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: inline; font-weight: normal;"> here we use SB3 eady panel prep here but </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: inline; font-weight: normal;"> we’ve also use Maguires M1 2 2 americana </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: inline;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: inline; font-weight: normal;"> global </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: inline;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: inline; font-weight: normal;"> but what happens is what I’ve seen </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: inline;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: inline; font-weight: normal;"> insist that polishing required but then you know </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: inline; font-weight: normal;"> maybe they use isopropyl alcohol wipe afterwards </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: inline;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: inline; font-weight: normal;"> which is an sufficient to get the polishes </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: inline; font-weight: normal;"> residues oils or they don’t mention a panel prep </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: inline;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: inline; font-weight: normal;"> spray as the final step at all which leads me to </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: inline; font-weight: normal;"> believe that they’re not doing it or they’re not </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: inline;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: inline; font-weight: normal;"> doing it correctly it’s so </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: inline;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: inline; font-weight: normal;"> if your polishing but you’re not doing that step </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: inline; font-weight: normal;"> correctly in the polishing will increase your </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: inline;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: inline; font-weight: normal;"> chances of a ceramic coating failure and I </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: inline; font-weight: normal;"> actually did a video on this of the proper </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: inline;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: inline; font-weight: normal;"> application of a panel prep spray and the reason </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: inline; font-weight: normal;"> is because you’re applying the ceramic coating to </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: inline;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: inline; font-weight: normal;"> a service that has fillers contaminants oils </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: inline;

font-weight: normal;"> why I think </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: inline;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: inline; font-weight: normal;"> polishing is not a requirement and or </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: inline;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: inline; font-weight: normal;"> why people believe that it is a requirement </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: inline;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: inline; font-weight: normal;"> the key take away here is what does the client </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: inline;

Reymark Design reymark.8bitcreative@gmail.com (Reymark Design) 2023-09-20T13:32:16Z 2023-09-20T13:32:16Z <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> In this video we did for Autofiber, we show you that the process for streak free windhsield cleaning is not necessarily the towel or materials or chemicals used, but the process. While we demonstrate some of the chemicals and towels that make the process easier, the truth is, it’s as simple as the process for streak free windshield cleaning! </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> Tips for a streak free windshield cleaning summary: </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> In 2023, Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings shares tips and techniques for achieving a streak-free windshield cleaning process. The focus is on emphasizing the importance of the towel and the cleaning method. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> Three key tips are highlighted. Firstly, it’s essential to use a clean towel or a clean side of a multi-sided towel to avoid dirt and grime that can lead to streaks. Secondly, performing the cleaning process out of direct sunlight is recommended to prevent complications caused by sun glare. Lastly, the technique involves cleaning horizontally on one side of the glass and vertically on the other side, making it easier to identify and rectify streaks. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> The cleaning process itself consists of two steps: removing dirt and grime and achieving a streak-free finish. Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings showcases the use of American Detailer Garage Breeze, a glass-specific cleaner, along with the Reachr kit for interior detailing and a smooth glass flip towel. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> The process starts by spraying the windshield with Breeze and using the twisted pile side of the smooth glass flip towel for the initial cleaning. This step may leave some streaks, which are later eliminated using the smooth side of the same towel. Additionally, the Reachr kit proves effective for cleaning the interior glass, allowing detailers to access tight spots easily. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> In conclusion, achieving a streak-free windshield involves selecting the right tools, employing the proper technique, and ensuring the towel remains clean and dry throughout the process. By following these steps, Auto Fiber users can expect streak-free results for windshield cleaning in 2023. </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bold;"> Excellent </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; color: rgb(246, 187, 5);"> ★★★★★ </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p style="line-height: 1.4em;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Based on  </span> <a href="https://admin.trustindex.io/widget/logClick?pub_widget_id=129a7e020f9b0061fb26048f1d9" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> 268 reviews </a> </p> </div> <div> <img src="https://irp.cdn-website.com/f8cd5085/dms3rep/multi/logo.svg" alt="A colorful google logo on a white background"/> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> What choices do you have where these streak free windshield tips can come in handy? </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> PPF VS.

font-weight: normal;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> all right so what’s more important the chemical or the towel the towel is actually more important than the chemical but the process and the technique is more important than both so I have three tips before we get started tip number one always use a clean towel or always use a clean side of a towel that has multiple sides and the reason for that is dirt and grime will actually cause streaks so a big mistake that people make is they use a dirty or a partially used towel to finish up the windshield and they end up with streaks tip number two don’t do it in the Sun so if you are a mobile detailer try to do the windshield first before the sun comes up or flip the vehicle around so that the sun is not shining directly into the windshield that also causes problems tip number three is when you’re cleaning your windshield clean horizontally on one side and vertically on another that way if you see a streak you know whether it comes from the inside or the outside and you’re not constantly getting in and out of the vehicle checking know where that streak is located cleaning glass is basically a two-step process and it can be used with any chemical or towel but some are better than others Step One is cleaning the dirt grime and film off the windshield or the glass and for that we typically use a twisted pile side of the towel and then the second step is a streak free final wipe which we use a lower pile side of the towel or a separate towel entirely the most important thing to remember is that the towel needs to be cleaned or dry to prevent streaks all right now we’re going to talk about the tools that we’re going to use today and we’re going to use three primary things today we’re going to use American detailer garage Breeze which is the glass specific cleaner although you can use American Detailer garage Wipeout diluted to the correct ratio we’re going to use the reacher kit which has a flexible extension which is great for the Interiors getting between the windshield and where the dashboard meets and then we’re going to use the smooth glass flip but you can also use use the Double Glass flip and both of those will work with the reacher kit but in this example we’re going to use a smooth glass flip all right the first thing we’re going to do is we’re going to spray the windshield with American detailer garage Breeze and then we’re going to use the Twisted pile side of the smooth glass flip and we’re going to go vertically to clean the glass and you’ll notice there’s some streaks on the glass and that’s okay because we haven’t switched to the smooth side for the streak free finish then we’re going to switch it to the smooth </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> and we’re going to eliminate those streaks </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> if your towel gets saturated or dirty it’s no problem because we can flip it inside and out and get clean and dry sides next thing we’re going to do is we’re going to clean the inside and for this I’m going to use the reacher kit and you could probably see the smudges from the exterior shot and those are all on the inside of the glass so the first thing I’m going to do is I’m going to spray </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> the glass with American Detailer garage Breeze I’m going to use the Twisted pile side and I’m going to try to go horizontally the best I can and the reacher kit is great because it conforms and allows you to bend and get into tight spots and it’s also great if you’re looking for efficiency especially as a mobile detailer where you’re doing multiple cars a day because you notice I can reach the whole windshield from here without getting out of the car now I’m going to come back through I’m going to flip it over and use the smooth side for my final wipe </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> this actually works so well I almost don’t need the final wipe but I’m going to do it anyways because I try to do things only one time I don’t want to get out of the car and find out that I missed a spot </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> all right today I promised you a streak free windshield and we showed you how to do it nice and easy with American detailer garage Breeze the auto fiber Reacher kit and the smooth glass flip now you have a lot of options but that’s what we use today go check them out from Auto fiber and get Street free windshields in 2023 </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: unset;"> Last updated on September 16th, 2023.

The Milwaukee 2724-20 leaf blower is specifically highlighted for its effectiveness in drying cars as an auto detailing car blow dryer, especially those with ceramic coatings or clear bra paint protection film. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings mentions that the leaf blower has two settings, “rabbit” and “turtle,” which control its power. For ceramic-coated cars, the leaf blower is a valuable tool for drying as it helps prevent water spots and minimizes contact with the vehicle’s paint, reducing the risk of scratches. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> The video also discusses the accessories used with the leaf blower. Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings mentions 3D-printed nozzles available on Etsy, including a short tip and a flat tip, which can be used to concentrate and direct the air for more efficient drying. The “stubby” tip is recommended as it makes maneuvering around the vehicle easier. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> The video includes a practical demonstration of the leaf blower’s effectiveness in drying a ceramic-coated vehicle’s hood. Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings emphasizes the importance of using the leaf blower on vehicles with hydrophobic properties like ceramic coatings or clear bra film, as it may not work as effectively on bare paint. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> In summary, the Milwaukee 2724-20 cordless leaf blower as an auto detailing car blow dryer showcased by Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings as a useful tool for automotive detailing, particularly for drying vehicles with protective coatings. Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings recommends using specific 3D-printed nozzle accessories for better control and highlights the convenience of the “stubby” tip for maneuverability. The leaf blower is seen as a valuable addition to the detailing arsenal, especially for maintaining coated vehicles and reducing potential paint damage. </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bold;"> Excellent </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; color: rgb(246, 187, 5);"> ★★★★★ </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p style="line-height: 1.4em;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Based on  </span> <a href="https://admin.trustindex.io/widget/logClick?pub_widget_id=129a7e020f9b0061fb26048f1d9" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> 268 reviews </a> </p> </div> <div> <img src="https://irp.cdn-website.com/f8cd5085/dms3rep/multi/logo.svg" alt="A colorful google logo on a white background"/> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> What choices do you have where this auto detailing car blow dryer will come in handy? </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> PPF VS.

font-weight: normal;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> milwaukee it it’s the 18 volt cordless leaf blower there’s a 12 volt one that’s not the one we want we want the 18 volt one you can get this on amazon the link is in the description of the video so the m18 fuel milwaukee brushless leaf blower it’s pretty powerful it’s really important to note that when you turn on the leaf blower there’s a rabbet and a turtle and it’ll light up when you give it some power and you just hit this button to cycle back and forth between the rabbit and the turtle so typically for ceramic coated cars we can use a leaf blower to blow the car off if it’s not ceramic coated it doesn’t always work quite as well as we’d like it to it tends to push the water around but with a ceramic coated vehicle like our bmw i8 which is fully ceramic coated and fully clear broad this leaf blower will work and if you’ve heard my previous videos in aftercare and check it out in the after care playlist the more frequently you touch the vehicle the more likely you are to scratch the paint now in our case we have clear bra over the whole car so we’re not going to scratch the paint but if you don’t have clear bra over the whole car you’re more likely to damage the paint at some point by touching it no matter how good your efforts are so we try to reduce the amount of contact with the paint be it the spotless water free or the water spotless system from adams i can send you a link in the description and that allows you to kind of rinse the car off without getting water spots which is caused by hard water spots that’s a whole other story so we’re going to talk about the leaf blower today now the leaf blower by itself it’s a little awkward because it has this i would say maybe 18 inch or so um 24 inch extension nozzle and so detailers find it somewhat awkward to blow dry a car with this extension you kind of have to hold it at odd angles to be able to blow dry the car so i’m kind of a nerd so i searched for a solution now i guess the cheapest solution you could do is probably cut the nozzle but we didn’t do that we bought some 3d printed nozzles off of etsy and i’m going to show you what those look like so one nozzle you know you can also put on the end of the it’s a flat tip nozzle and it goes on the end of the barrel here now for us it doesn’t help us it kind of makes a situation worse but it’s still a good option it just kind of slides on the end and you can get in black or red it doesn’t matter um it’s 3d printed and so it fits on there nice and it’s great it’s just this this just makes it even longer so it’s not really helpful for us in the detailing world so first thing you’re going to want to do is you get this stuff on etsy this is the the short tip and then this is the flat tip that will go on the short tip and the first thing you want to do is you click this button right here and it will sort of take this out we don’t want to use this and then you got just the machine it still works but the air is a wide pattern and what we want to do for detailing is we want to concentrate that pattern as much as possible into a small area so we’ve got this uh tip from etsy and you see it’s got like a little locking mechanism 3d printed at the bottom there and so we’re going to just push it in </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> and it will just kind of lock into place you don’t have to hit the button necessarily so it’s locked in there and then this tip from uh from etsy as well we put it on and now we have a stub tip but flattened concentrated air and so you can see the difference in length </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> now i know we i know we like length but not in this case okay so we don’t want the we don’t want the this length because it’s going to hit things so this makes it much easier to hold and honestly i haven’t put this tip back on since i got the stub tip and i’m not just talking for detailing cars i’m talking for your typical everyday i blow out the shop every time between vehicles and the air is powerful enough on rabbit mode or turbo whatever it’s called to blow out the garage without this extended tip now you may want the extended tip depending upon what your use is but we use this 99 of the time blow drying cars so come with me i’m going to show you how well it works on the ceramic coated i8 that we have all right so let me just give you a little demonstration with this um the important thing to note is that the flat tip does help i’ve noticed that is it some drastic difference i’m not really sure that it’s a huge difference to have the flat tip the key is that the stub tip is makes it so much easier to maneuver and some of these companies they offer a protection for the end just in case you do bump a vehicle with it we are pretty careful so we’ll probably make our own bump protection at some point for this uh i couldn’t find it but we like the flat tip and i’m gonna show you what that kind of looks like in terms of the water dispersion with this milwaukee 2724-20 blower now my buddy mike he sells these uh battery operated pump sprayers they’re useful we use them for clear bra and all kind of other things so i just wet down the hood </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> now the first take that i did on this video the leaf blower blew the camera over i’m just a one-man show here so i’m going to come from behind the camera this time and blow the water away so i don’t blow the camera into the car </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> so you’re gonna see it works pretty well and more importantly the ease of maneuvering see how close i can get to the vehicle with almost no effort </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> all right so that’s the gist of the milwaukee 2724 cordless leaf blower uh i have descriptions or amazon links and all that stuff in the description for you and i got like the battery pump sprayer in the description for my buddy that sells it um so bottom line if if you’re using this it’s got almost certainly has to be on a ceramic coated vehicle or at least a clear bra ppf that has some sort of hydrophobic properties if it’s just bare paint no coating no wax no nothing no sealant um it probably won’t work as well and also to be honest we it’s probably faster to use a good drying towel like an amphibian or a dreadnought from auto fiber which is what we use around the shop but the thing is is the more you touch the car’s paint no matter how safe you are with it the more chances that you could damage the car’s paint and we don’t want to damage the car’s paint especially on a client’s vehicle so if it’s a paint correction detailing a ceramic coating job we wash it with our adam’s spot free water and then we’ll blow dry it off of milwaukee if it’s if it’s coated um obviously if we’re doing a ceramic coating job it’s probably not coated um so we don’t use this as much on those type of jobs but we do use it sometimes we use it on ppf jobs but a lot of times on ppf jobs we leave the vehicle wet because we don’t want to even using effluent towels which are lint-free they’re meant for glass and stuff but they work great for ppf um we don’t even want to use those to touch the paint uh just in case we introduce some debris so you know we use this do i think the flat tip is 100 necessary maybe not the stubby tip though is a game changer it completely makes it easy to maneuver around the vehicle without awkwardly holding the machine and when you’re awkwardly holding the machine you’re more likely to hit the paint of the vehicle so definitely the stubby tip is a must-have in my opinion for the for the leaf blower and as long as it’s on the rabbit mode and so long as you have a charged battery and i suggest the legit milwaukee batteries we tried to go the knockoff route for a while and they just don’t hold up as long they don’t provide as much power they never rate the power or the time that they say whereas milwaukee batteries or workhorses even though super expensive and you may not notice this or know this but if you are you know embedded in a different eco tool ecosystem say you have makita or dewalt or you know whatever they make battery adapters uh i’m not sure every combination is out there but you know say you have a bunch of makita batteries there is an adapter that you could put on this that would allow you to use makita batteries on the milwaukee tool once you have the adapter makes a little bit slightly more clunky but not that bad and we used to use that when we had a makita polisher and a dewalt polisher but now we use all flex cordless and we’re in that ecosystem for our polishers so that will save you some money and i think those adapters are usually like 20 bucks or 30 bucks so if you have a bunch of dewalt batteries for example but you really like the milwaukee brushless 2724 you can get that adapter and use those batteries without having to buy all new milwaukee batteries and having you know separate chargers and separate batteries and all that kind of stuff so that’s our verdict on the 2724 we’d love it we bought it initially for around the house business type stuff but we’ve gotten more and more into using it to drying off vehicles especially ceramic coated vehicles especially our own vehicle that is ceramic coated it’s a great addition to your arsenal you don’t have to use it all the time but i think the stubby tip is absolutely necessary so hope you like it we’ll have some more videos for you soon </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: unset;"> Last updated on September 16th, 2023.

Swirls often build up to the extent that the paint appears gray. This is because scratches appear white to the naked eye, and when there are enough white scratches it tints or “taints” the black to gray when mixed together. We started our detailing journey over 15 years ago by fixing our own gloss black car that was heavily swirled after body shop work, and this is just a normal job to us! You could almost say we are black paint experts. We then completed this project by finishing with ceramic coating, making it easier to clean road grime, bug guts, and brake dust! </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="font-weight: var(--e-global-typography-primary-font-weight); display: unset;"> Book your 2019 Chevy Camaro Polishing and Ceramic Coating service with us in Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights! </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Did you know, you can call OR text us at  </span> <a href="tell:254-55-4142" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> 254.550.4142 </a> <span style="display: initial;">  or  </span> <a href="https://hhceramiccoatings.com/harker-heights-ceramic-coatings-contact-us/" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> visit our contact us page </a> <span style="display: initial;"> !  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Apart from this, you can continue to read more about our ceramic coating and clear bra, and paint correction options below.

Here’s why polishing a black Camaro is particularly effective: </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Enhanced Reflectivity and Depth </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Black paint is known for its ability to create a deep and reflective finish. However, over time, the paint can develop imperfections such as swirl marks, fine scratches, and oxidation that hinder its ability to reflect light uniformly. Polishing removes these imperfections, allowing the paint to regain its original depth and mirror-like reflectivity. The result is a stunning and eye-catching appearance that emphasizes the Camaro’s sleek lines and design. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Removal of Swirl Marks and Fine Scratches </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Black paint is especially susceptible to showing swirl marks and fine scratches due to its dark color. Polishing with the right products and techniques can effectively eliminate these imperfections, leaving the paint surface smooth and blemish-free. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Elimination of Oxidation and Fading </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Exposure to UV rays, pollutants, and environmental contaminants can cause black paint to fade and lose its vibrancy. Polishing helps remove oxidized and dull layers of paint, revealing the fresh and vibrant color beneath. This process revitalizes the appearance of the black paint and makes it look new again. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Restoration of Showroom-Like Shine </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Polishing restores the paint’s clear coat by leveling its surface, which enhances light reflection and creates a glossy finish. This showroom-like shine not only looks impressive but also helps the black Camaro stand out in any setting. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Protection against Future Damage </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Polishing is often followed by the application of protective products such as wax, sealant, or ceramic coating. These products provide an additional layer of defense against UV rays, contaminants, and minor abrasions, helping to preserve the restored gloss for a longer period. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Personal Satisfaction </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Restoring the gloss and finish of your black Camaro through polishing can provide a sense of accomplishment and pride. The visual transformation can be incredibly satisfying and reinforce your connection with the vehicle. </span> </li> </ol> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> It’s important to note that polishing should be performed carefully and with the right tools to avoid causing further damage to the paint. If you’re not experienced with detailing, consider seeking the expertise of a professional detailer who can assess the condition of your black Camaro’s paint and recommend the appropriate polishing techniques and products. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Remember that maintenance is key to keeping the restored gloss intact. Regular washing and proper care will help prolong the effects of the polishing process and maintain the striking appearance of your black Camaro. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Aftercare products and instructions for your 2019 Chevy Camaro Polishing and Ceramic Coating <br/> </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Car care products we love: </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Drying towel(s): Autofiber Dreadnought 20”x30” x1:  </span> </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Cd5Y9w" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Cd5Y9w </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Smaller drying towel (can also be used on glass) x2 (one for paint, one for wheels): Autofiber Dreadnought Jr. 16”x16” –  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3iazPbX" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3iazPbX </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Wash mitt: Autofiber Zero Cuff Wash Mitt x2 (one in black for wheels, one other color for paint):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3WYu3Jw" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WYu3Jw </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Auto detailing towels, general purpose (wiping off bird poop, quick wipe up, interior, etc): Autofiber Elite detailing towel:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3IeLiSo" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3IeLiSo </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Wheel drying/detailing microfiber towels, black: Autofiber Zero Edge:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Z0GJBe" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z0GJBe </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Quick detailer/glass cleaner/waterless wash/rinseless wash concentrate: American Detailer Garage Wipeout (can be diluted and lasts a very long time):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3WZkwlp" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WZkwlp </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Spray bottles for ADG Wipeout and other products:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Q3kxT5" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Q3kxT5 </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Buckets with grit guards x2 (one for wheels, one for paint):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3jxjnmq" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3jxjnmq </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Pre-treatment and wheel cleaner, American Detailer Garage F-Bomb diluted 10:1 (can be used 20:1 for interior):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3G1NV7w" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3G1NV7w </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> The best wheel cleaning tool we have ever used, the Autofiber Barrel blade (reaches the barrel, between the brake caliper, and narrow spokes):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Z0wnkK" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z0wnkK </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Foam cannon wash tools for auto detailing, the MTM Hydro PF22.2 has a wide base to prevent tipping:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3WE591K" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WE591K </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> American Detailer Garage Fuzion foaming hybrid wash (for use in foam cannon, use 2+ ounces per fill):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Z3MApg" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z3MApg </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Microfiber detergent to extend the life of your Autofiber microfiber and other towels:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3jBxp6B" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3jBxp6B </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Optional but useful for trucks and SUVs: Autofiber Mitt on a Stick Pro.  </span> <a href="https://www.autofiber.com/products/mitt-on-a-stick-pro-adjustable-wash-tool-with-360-locking-head-long-pole-35-to-83?variant=40748237816001" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://www.autofiber.com/products/mitt-on-a-stick-pro-adjustable-wash-tool-with-360-locking-head-long-pole-35-to-83?variant=40748237816001 </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Our most favorite detailing tool we have is our Adam’s Spot-Free Water system.

Eager to take the reins and become the proud custodian of this remarkable vehicle, he recognized the need to begin anew, with paint that mirrored perfection. Like many black cars that have weathered car washes and the scourge of swirls, the once-glossy surface bore the scars of time. These swirls, etched into the paint, often take on a disheartening white appearance, particularly prominent on the lustrous canvas of black. The end result is an almost grayish hue that stealthily robs the vehicle of its former splendor. While these imperfections may not always be immediately apparent, a partial polishing treatment reveals the stark contrast and underscores the need for intervention. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="font-weight: bolder; display: initial;"> Precision in Action: The Two-Step Paint Correction </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> To breathe new life into the 2015 Ford Mustang GT and to restore its radiant glory, we embarked on a meticulous two-step paint correction process. This methodical approach entails the removal of swirls, scratches, and imperfections that mar the surface. The aim is to unveil a finish that radiates with brilliance, bringing back the original allure of the vehicle. The difference is striking, as the paint’s true depth and vibrancy emerge from beneath the veil of imperfections. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: bolder; display: initial;"> ADG Venom Ceramic Coating: A Protective Elegance </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> With the completion of the paint correction process, we turned our attention to preserving the rejuvenated finish of the 2015 Ford Mustang GT. For this task, we chose American Detailer Garage (ADG) Venom, a formidable three-year/36,000-mile ceramic coating. ADG Venom isn’t just about protection; it’s about elevating the vehicle’s aesthetics to new heights. Its application bestows a slick, glossy, and hydrophobic appearance, making the vehicle a sight to behold. More importantly, it simplifies the cleaning process, ensuring that bug guts, road grime, and bird droppings are no match for its protective shield. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bold;"> Excellent </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; color: rgb(246, 187, 5);"> ★★★★★ </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p style="line-height: 1.4em;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Based on  </span> <a href="https://admin.trustindex.io/widget/logClick?pub_widget_id=129a7e020f9b0061fb26048f1d9" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> 268 reviews </a> </p> </div> <div> <img src="https://irp.cdn-website.com/f8cd5085/dms3rep/multi/logo.svg" alt="A colorful google logo on a white background"/> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> What choices do you have for protection?

This Hellcat boasts a factory-finished matte-painted hood, a hallmark of distinction and performance. However, recognizing the need to safeguard this matte masterpiece, our client embarked on a journey to protect it with our Autobahn Starkë Paint Protection Film (PPF). Our Autobahn films are celebrated for their exceptional quality, and they bear the promise of a lifetime warranty, free from hassles and complications. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Matte Magic Meets Automotive Mastery </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Matte paint possesses an undeniable allure, offering a unique and captivating aesthetic that sets it apart from traditional glossy finishes. Yet, this distinctive beauty comes with a challenge – matte paint is notoriously complex to maintain and repair. Unlike glossy finishes, defects on matte surfaces are impossible to polish out. Attempting to do so would transform the matte paint into an undesirable glossy appearance, forever compromising its original matte allure. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Autobahn Starkë PPF: The Perfect Shield for Matte Elegance </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> When it came time to select the protective shield for the 2017 Dodge Challenger Hellcat’s matte hood, we left no room for compromise.

Instead of permanent scuffs marring the matte paint, they will now be absorbed by the protective PPF layer. Minor superficial swirls and scratches, often encountered in day-to-day driving, can vanish when exposed to heat.

While PPF may not be invulnerable, our aim is to provide the closest thing to bulletproof protection possible.

This 2020 Lincoln Continental ceramic coating project came to us initially just as a ceramic coating. However, after careful review, the owner decided on a single-step paint correction to remove some faint swirl marks not from a car wash. We removed about 80% of the swirls and restored the gloss of this 2020 Lincoln continental to factory finish with just a single step. Even though this vehicle is black, we have ways to work a quality compound and polish into the process, often doing the work of a two-step in just a single-step paint correction. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> After we finished her up nice, we ceramic coated this 2020 Lincoln Continental with a three-year ceramic coating that has an extremely hydrophobic (repels water) and glossy finish. This makes road grime easier to clean, and speeds up the cleaning process so you don’t feel as though you need to take it to an automatic car wash (which are terrible for your car’s paint). Probably one of our favorite things about ceramic coating, especially in the Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights area, where we get tons of nasty, big bugs, is how easy it is to remove bug guts. The more you have to scrub off bug guts in the Texas heat, the more likely you will swirl and scratch your paint. Ceramic coating doesn’t provide much swirl and scratch protection directly, but it DOES help in the sense that you work less hard to clean the vehicle and therefore scratch it less. Hopefully you enjoy this 2020 Lincoln Continental ceramic coating video as much as we did working on it! </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: var(--e-global-typography-primary-font-weight);"> 2020 Lincoln Continental Polishing and Ceramic Coating service with us in Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights! </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Did you know, you can call OR text us at  </span> <a href="tell:254-55-4142" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> 254.550.4142 </a> <span style="display: initial;">  or  </span> <a href="https://hhceramiccoatings.com/harker-heights-ceramic-coatings-contact-us/" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> visit our contact us page </a> <span style="display: initial;"> !  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Apart from this, you can continue to read more about our ceramic coating and clear bra, and paint correction options below.

Ceramic coating takes this a step further by providing a reflective and glossy finish, giving the vehicle a pristine appearance. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Long-Lasting Shine: Ceramic coatings outlast traditional waxes and sealants, maintaining the car’s shine for an extended period. This helps the black paint remain vibrant and attractive over time. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Ease of Cleaning: Ceramic coatings make cleaning easier by repelling dirt, water, and contaminants. This hydrophobic effect reduces the effort needed for regular maintenance, keeping your black car looking its best. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> UV Protection: Ceramic coatings offer a degree of UV protection that helps prevent paint fading and deterioration, especially important for preserving the deep black color of the car’s finish. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Chemical Resistance: Ceramic coatings act as a shield against environmental pollutants, bird droppings, tree sap, and chemicals that can harm the paint. This protective layer contributes to the car’s long-term appearance. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Preservation of Resale Value: A well-maintained black finish enhances the car’s resale value. Potential buyers are drawn to vehicles that have been cared for and maintain a high-quality appearance. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Sleek Appearance: The combination of polishing and ceramic coating gives your black car a sleek and sophisticated look. The smooth, reflective surface showcases the vehicle’s contours and lines, contributing to its overall aesthetic appeal. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Water Beading: Ceramic coatings create a water-repellent effect, causing water to bead up and roll off the surface. This not only looks impressive but also helps prevent water spots and mineral deposits from forming. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Time and Cost Savings: While the initial application of ceramic coating may require an investment, the long-lasting protection and reduced need for frequent waxing or polishing can save you time and money in the long run. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Low Maintenance Elegance: With a ceramic-coated black car, you can maintain an elegant appearance with minimal effort. The coating’s self-cleaning properties and resistance to contaminants ensure that your car stays looking pristine with less upkeep. </span> </li> </ol> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> By focusing on these benefits, you can appreciate how polishing and ceramic coating contribute to the overall appeal and maintenance of a black car’s finish without emphasizing reduced swirl marks. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Aftercare products and instructions for your 2018 Infiniti Q50 Ceramic Coating and Polishing <br/> </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Car care products we love: </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Drying towel(s): Autofiber Dreadnought 20”x30” x1:  </span> </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Cd5Y9w" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Cd5Y9w </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Smaller drying towel (can also be used on glass) x2 (one for paint, one for wheels): Autofiber Dreadnought Jr. 16”x16” –  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3iazPbX" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3iazPbX </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Wash mitt: Autofiber Zero Cuff Wash Mitt x2 (one in black for wheels, one other color for paint):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3WYu3Jw" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WYu3Jw </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Auto detailing towels, general purpose (wiping off bird poop, quick wipe up, interior, etc): Autofiber Elite detailing towel:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3IeLiSo" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3IeLiSo </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Wheel drying/detailing microfiber towels, black: Autofiber Zero Edge:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Z0GJBe" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z0GJBe </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Quick detailer/glass cleaner/waterless wash/rinseless wash concentrate: American Detailer Garage Wipeout (can be diluted and lasts a very long time):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3WZkwlp" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WZkwlp </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Spray bottles for ADG Wipeout and other products:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Q3kxT5" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Q3kxT5 </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Buckets with grit guards x2 (one for wheels, one for paint):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3jxjnmq" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3jxjnmq </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Pre-treatment and wheel cleaner, American Detailer Garage F-Bomb diluted 10:1 (can be used 20:1 for interior):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3G1NV7w" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3G1NV7w </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> The best wheel cleaning tool we have ever used, the Autofiber Barrel blade (reaches the barrel, between the brake caliper, and narrow spokes):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Z0wnkK" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z0wnkK </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Foam cannon wash tools for auto detailing, the MTM Hydro PF22.2 has a wide base to prevent tipping:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3WE591K" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WE591K </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> American Detailer Garage Fuzion foaming hybrid wash (for use in foam cannon, use 2+ ounces per fill):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Z3MApg" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z3MApg </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Microfiber detergent to extend the life of your Autofiber microfiber and other towels:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3jBxp6B" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3jBxp6B </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Optional but useful for trucks and SUVs: Autofiber Mitt on a Stick Pro.  </span> <a href="https://www.autofiber.com/products/mitt-on-a-stick-pro-adjustable-wash-tool-with-360-locking-head-long-pole-35-to-83?variant=40748237816001" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://www.autofiber.com/products/mitt-on-a-stick-pro-adjustable-wash-tool-with-360-locking-head-long-pole-35-to-83?variant=40748237816001 </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Our most favorite detailing tool we have is our Adam’s Spot-Free Water system.

That’s precisely why our valued Copperas Cove, Killeen, and Harker Heights client, a respected veteran at Fort Cavazos, entrusted us with his brand new 2023 BMW X5. His goal? To shield his luxurious BMW from the perils of the open road, and the answer to this automotive conundrum was Paint Protection Film (PPF). </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: bolder; display: initial;"> Full Front PPF and Rocker Panel Defense: The Ultimate Shield </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Our strategy was clear-cut and comprehensive. We installed a full front PPF on the 2023 BMW X5, covering vulnerable areas most susceptible to damage from road debris and flying rocks. To complete the protective envelope, we extended our coverage to include the rocker panels under the doors. This meticulous approach ensured that the entire lower section of the vehicle remained shielded from potential chips and abrasions. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Enhanced Gloss and Lifetime Paint Protection </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> The benefits of PPF extend beyond mere protection. The Autobahn Incognito PPF not only acts as a formidable barrier against chips and scratches but also enhances the gloss and brilliance of the vehicle’s finish. It’s a win-win scenario for our client – a vehicle that not only looks stunning but is also prepared for a lifetime of adventures. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Setting Realistic Expectations for PPF </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> While PPF, also known as clear bra or paint protection film, offers substantial protection against road hazards, it’s essential to set realistic expectations. PPF cannot guarantee absolute immunity from every rock chip or scratch. Still, it dramatically increases your chances of avoiding unsightly damage caused by errant chips or incidental contact, like a careless door ding in a crowded parking lot. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> It’s worth noting that despite some claims to the contrary, PPF does not offer protection against dents, hail, or shopping cart impacts. These types of damage require different approaches and solutions. However, for safeguarding your paint’s integrity and preserving its visual appeal, PPF stands as a formidable choice. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Witness the Process: Your 2023 BMW X5 PPF Journey </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> We’re delighted to provide a glimpse into the meticulous process of applying clear bra to our client’s 2023 BMW X5.

Owning a black vehicle can be a source of pride, but it also comes with its unique challenges. Black paint tends to show swirls and imperfections more prominently than other colors, leaving your vehicle looking less than its best over time. That’s where our 2023 Chevy Silverado PPF project comes into play, offering comprehensive protection and peace of mind. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Total Coverage for a Stunning Finish </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> For this 2023 Chevy Silverado PPF project, we embarked on a mission to shield the entire truck, roof included, with high-quality PPF. Our goal was clear: safeguard the vehicle against rock chips, swirls, and the wear and tear of daily use. By opting for full coverage, our client made a strategic decision to bid farewell to those unsightly swirls that can mar the beauty of a black vehicle. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="font-weight: bolder; display: initial;"> Autobahn Incognito PPF: A Lifetime of Protection </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> To ensure the utmost protection, we utilized Autobahn Incognito PPF, a premier choice in the world of Paint Protection Film.

When a Fort Cavazos servicemember and valued client entrusted us with his brand new 2023 BMW M2, we knew it deserved nothing less than our finest treatment. This project was about more than just preserving a vehicle; it was an opportunity to enhance its beauty, longevity, and performance through Paint Protection Film (PPF) and ceramic coating, inside and out. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: bolder; display: initial;"> Unleashing the Power of PPF and Ceramic Coating </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> The 2023 BMW M2 arrived practically straight from the dealership, resplendent in Zandvoort Blue, a shade reminiscent of the iconic Yas Marina Blue that graced an M3 we treated earlier. Our mission was clear: provide full-body protection and elevate its appearance to a level befitting the ultimate driving machine. <span>  </span> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bold;"> PPF Excellence: Autobahn Incognito with a Lifetime Warranty </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> To safeguard the 2023 BMW M2, we employed Autobahn Incognito PPF, a premier choice in the realm of Paint Protection Film.

This journey began with the client’s 2019 Subaru Impreza WRX, followed by their trust in us for this brand-new 2023 Subaru Impreza, straight from the dealership. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bold;"> Excellent </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; color: rgb(246, 187, 5);"> ★★★★★ </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p style="line-height: 1.4em;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Based on  </span> <a href="https://admin.trustindex.io/widget/logClick?pub_widget_id=129a7e020f9b0061fb26048f1d9" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> 268 reviews </a> </p> </div> <div> <img src="https://irp.cdn-website.com/f8cd5085/dms3rep/multi/logo.svg" alt="A colorful google logo on a white background"/> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> This 2023 Subaru Impreza five-year coating project started off with a water spot removal solution, since it seemed as though it had some hard water spots from being at the dealership. Many times, new cars sit at the dealership and are washed with hard water and left to dry. This is not the first water spot removal we had to do on a brand new vehicle in just the last month. </span> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: bolder; display: initial;"> The 2023 Subaru Impreza: </span> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;">  Fresh, Promising, and Protected </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Our goal was clear: enhance the vehicle’s aesthetics, longevity, and protection. This led us to apply our 5-Year Ceramic Coating, a commitment to preserving the car’s pristine condition for an extended period. This advanced coating forms a durable, hydrophobic barrier, defending against water, contaminants, UV rays, and more, ensuring the Subaru Impreza maintains its showroom shine. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> If you have a 2023 Subaru Impreza do you pick the five-year ceramic coating or do you get PPF? </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> PPF VS.

They create a hydrophobic surface that repels water, contaminants, and UV rays. This helps to prevent oxidation, fading, and paint damage, keeping your vehicle looking newer for longer. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Longevity </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : A five-year ceramic coating offers longer-lasting protection compared to traditional waxes and sealants, which typically last only a few months. This means less frequent reapplication and maintenance, saving you time and money in the long run. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Easy Maintenance </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Ceramic coatings make it easier to clean your car. The hydrophobic properties make water bead and slide off, taking dirt and contaminants with it. This reduces the effort required for washing and detailing, and it also helps prevent the accumulation of stubborn stains. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Improved Gloss and Shine </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Ceramic coatings enhance the depth and gloss of your car’s paint, giving it a showroom-like finish. The coating creates a smooth, glass-like surface that reflects light beautifully. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Protection Against Environmental Factors </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Your car is exposed to various environmental factors such as bird droppings, tree sap, and road salts. Ceramic coatings act as a barrier, preventing these substances from etching or staining your paint. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Resistant to Chemicals </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Ceramic coatings are highly resistant to chemicals and harsh cleaning agents, which can strip away wax or sealants. This means you don’t have to worry about accidentally damaging your coating when cleaning your car. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Preserve Resale Value </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Maintaining your car’s appearance and paint quality can significantly impact its resale value. A well-maintained exterior, thanks to a ceramic coating, can help you get a better price when you decide to sell or trade in your vehicle. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> UV Protection </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Ceramic coatings provide UV protection, which helps prevent the paint from fading or degrading due to prolonged sun exposure. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Saves Time and Money </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : While the initial cost of ceramic coating may be higher than traditional waxing or detailing, the reduced maintenance and longevity of the coating can save you money over time. Additionally, you’ll spend less time washing and waxing your car. </span> </li> </ol> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Keep in mind that while ceramic coatings offer many benefits, they require proper preparation and application to achieve the best results. It’s often recommended to have a professional detailer apply the coating to ensure it’s done correctly. Additionally, regular maintenance, such as periodic inspections and gentle hand washing, is essential to maximize the coating’s lifespan and effectiveness. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> Aftercare products and instructions for your 2023 Subaru Impreza Five-Year Ceramic Coating </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="font-weight: bolder; display: initial;"> Welcome to Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings – Your Source for Premium Car Care Tips! </span> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: bolder; display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> At Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings, we’re passionate about helping you preserve and enhance the beauty of your beloved vehicles.

We coordinate with local body shops frequently, which this was no exception. We started off by polishing his hood, which had some swirls and sanding marks left from the body shop. This is not a negative on the body shop, they do one type of work and we do another. Most body shops you can think of as buying a built house. The house is going to be mostly finished but you might want to repaint some rooms or finish off the garage. We often refine paint work by putting that finishing touch polish on the paint. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> After polishing this 2018 Infiniti Q50 ceramic coating project, we installed a five-year ceramic coating with extreme hydrophobic and glossy properties. This makes it so much easier to remove bug guts, clean road grime, and remove brake dust (we also coated the wheel faces and windshield). On white vehicles, it’s harder to see swirls and marks, but once polished, you can definitely notice a difference in overall gloss and appearance. Our Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights 2018 Infiniti Q50 owner will enjoy this ceramic coating for five years, and how easy it is to clean! </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="font-weight: var(--e-global-typography-primary-font-weight); display: unset;"> 2018 Infiniti Q50 Ceramic Coating and Polishing service with us in Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights! </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Did you know, you can call OR text us at  </span> <a href="tell:254-55-4142" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> 254.550.4142 </a> <span style="display: initial;">  or  </span> <a href="https://hhceramiccoatings.com/harker-heights-ceramic-coatings-contact-us/" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> visit our contact us page </a> <span style="display: initial;"> !  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Apart from this, you can continue to read more about our ceramic coating and clear bra, and paint correction options below.

It is a critical step that helps achieve a smooth, glossy, and flawless finish on the newly painted surface. Here are the key reasons why polishing is performed after painting a car: </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Removal of Imperfections </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Even with careful painting techniques, imperfections such as dust particles, orange peel texture, and minor surface blemishes can occur during the paint application process. Polishing helps eliminate these imperfections, resulting in a smoother and more uniform surface. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Enhancement of Gloss and Depth </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Polishing the painted surface brings out the paint’s true color, depth, and gloss. It creates a reflective surface that showcases the richness of the paint and gives the car a showroom-quality finish. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Smooth and Uniform Texture </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Polishing helps level the surface of the paint, reducing any unevenness or texture discrepancies that might have occurred during painting. This results in a silky-smooth finish that feels uniform to the touch. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Preparation for Protective Coatings </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : After polishing, the paint surface is in an optimal condition to receive protective coatings such as wax, sealants, or ceramic coatings. These coatings adhere better to a polished surface, enhancing their effectiveness in protecting the paint from environmental elements. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Final Finishing Touch </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Polishing is the last step in the paint correction process, ensuring that the car’s appearance meets high-quality standards. It is a crucial stage in achieving a flawless and professional finish that is visually appealing. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Professional Detailing </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Polishing is often performed by skilled detailing professionals who have the expertise to assess and correct any paint imperfections. Their experience and tools help achieve the best possible finish, making the car look its best. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Resale and Aesthetic Value </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : A well-polished and flawless paint finish enhances the car’s resale value and overall aesthetic appeal. Potential buyers are often attracted to vehicles that have been meticulously detailed and have a showroom-worthy appearance. </span> </li> </ol> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> It’s important to note that polishing should be carried out carefully and with the appropriate tools and techniques to avoid damaging the paint. Over-polishing or using improper methods can lead to excessive paint removal, which can negatively impact the paint’s longevity and appearance. Therefore, it’s recommended to have the polishing process performed by professionals who are experienced in automotive detailing to achieve the desired results while preserving the integrity of the paint. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Aftercare products and instructions for your 2018 Infiniti Q50 Ceramic Coating and Polishing <br/> </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Car care products we love: </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Drying towel(s): Autofiber Dreadnought 20”x30” x1:  </span> </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Cd5Y9w" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Cd5Y9w </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Smaller drying towel (can also be used on glass) x2 (one for paint, one for wheels): Autofiber Dreadnought Jr. 16”x16” –  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3iazPbX" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3iazPbX </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Wash mitt: Autofiber Zero Cuff Wash Mitt x2 (one in black for wheels, one other color for paint):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3WYu3Jw" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WYu3Jw </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Auto detailing towels, general purpose (wiping off bird poop, quick wipe up, interior, etc): Autofiber Elite detailing towel:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3IeLiSo" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3IeLiSo </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Wheel drying/detailing microfiber towels, black: Autofiber Zero Edge:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Z0GJBe" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z0GJBe </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Quick detailer/glass cleaner/waterless wash/rinseless wash concentrate: American Detailer Garage Wipeout (can be diluted and lasts a very long time):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3WZkwlp" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WZkwlp </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Spray bottles for ADG Wipeout and other products:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Q3kxT5" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Q3kxT5 </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Buckets with grit guards x2 (one for wheels, one for paint):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3jxjnmq" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3jxjnmq </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Pre-treatment and wheel cleaner, American Detailer Garage F-Bomb diluted 10:1 (can be used 20:1 for interior):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3G1NV7w" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3G1NV7w </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> The best wheel cleaning tool we have ever used, the Autofiber Barrel blade (reaches the barrel, between the brake caliper, and narrow spokes):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Z0wnkK" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z0wnkK </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Foam cannon wash tools for auto detailing, the MTM Hydro PF22.2 has a wide base to prevent tipping:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3WE591K" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WE591K </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> American Detailer Garage Fuzion foaming hybrid wash (for use in foam cannon, use 2+ ounces per fill):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Z3MApg" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z3MApg </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Microfiber detergent to extend the life of your Autofiber microfiber and other towels:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3jBxp6B" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3jBxp6B </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Optional but useful for trucks and SUVs: Autofiber Mitt on a Stick Pro.  </span> <a href="https://www.autofiber.com/products/mitt-on-a-stick-pro-adjustable-wash-tool-with-360-locking-head-long-pole-35-to-83?variant=40748237816001" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://www.autofiber.com/products/mitt-on-a-stick-pro-adjustable-wash-tool-with-360-locking-head-long-pole-35-to-83?variant=40748237816001 </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Our most favorite detailing tool we have is our Adam’s Spot-Free Water system.

You can see our other videos that discuss the dangers of car washes. In many cases, clients buy cars that have already been through washes, or the dealer wash, or in many cases, to no fault of anyone – people don’t realize the damage they cause. All of that is ok, because we always correct black vehicles! </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> For this 2021 Cadillac CT5V paint correction/ceramic coating project, we utilized a heavy-hitting combo of Meguiar’s M100 and a hybrid wool pad with a rotary polisher followed up by Sonax Perfect Finish on a blue Lake Country HDO pad and dual-action polisher. This takes special care and consideration to not damage other parts of the vehicle, but we are very adept at fixing black General Motors paint. Not just on this 2021 Cadillac CT5V paint correction, but any GM black paint can be difficult to finish off properly, especially after a heavy cutting combination. Afterwards, we used SB3 Coatings Solo one year ceramic coating on the exterior surfaces, and two year ceramic coating on the wheel faces and one year on the windshield! </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: var(--e-global-typography-primary-font-weight);"> 2021 Cadillac CT4V Ceramic Coating and Polishing service with us in Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights! </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Did you know, you can call OR text us at  </span> <a href="tell:254-55-4142" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> 254.550.4142 </a> <span style="display: initial;">  or  </span> <a href="https://hhceramiccoatings.com/harker-heights-ceramic-coatings-contact-us/" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> visit our contact us page </a> <span style="display: initial;"> !  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Apart from this, you can continue to read more about our ceramic coating and clear bra, and paint correction options below.

Here’s why ceramic coating can be a valuable option for your CT4-V: </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Exceptional Protection </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Ceramic coatings create a durable and protective layer over your CT4-V’s paint. This layer acts as a barrier against a range of environmental contaminants, such as UV rays, bird droppings, tree sap, road salt, pollutants, and acid rain. It helps shield the paint from potential damage and prevents fading, oxidation, and other paint-related issues. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Hydrophobic Properties </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Ceramic coatings provide a hydrophobic effect, causing water and liquids to bead up and roll off the surface. This property makes it easier to clean your CT4-V and reduces the chances of water spots or mineral deposits forming on the paint. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Chemical Resistance </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : The chemical resistance of ceramic coatings helps protect your paint from potential damage caused by harsh chemicals, bird droppings, bug splatters, and tree sap. It minimizes the risk of stains, etching, and long-term damage. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Long-Lasting Shine </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Ceramic coatings are known for their durability and longevity compared to traditional wax or sealant products. Once applied, a ceramic coating can last for years, maintaining the glossy and vibrant appearance of your CT4-V. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Reduced Maintenance Effort </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : The hydrophobic and self-cleaning properties of ceramic coatings make routine maintenance easier. Dust, dirt, and debris have a harder time adhering to the treated surface, allowing you to spend less time cleaning and detailing your car. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Preservation of Resale Value </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : A well-maintained exterior with a protected paint finish can contribute to a higher resale value for your Cadillac CT4-V. Potential buyers are often more attracted to vehicles that have been properly cared for and retain their aesthetic appeal. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> UV Protection </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Ceramic coatings offer a level of UV protection that helps prevent the paint from fading and the clear coat from deteriorating due to prolonged sun exposure. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Enhanced Appearance </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : The reflective and glossy finish provided by a ceramic coating enhances the visual appeal of your CT4-V. It emphasizes the contours and design elements of the vehicle, giving it a polished and high-end look. </span> </li> </ol> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> For optimal results, consider having a professional detailer apply the ceramic coating to your Cadillac CT4-V. Their expertise and experience will ensure that the coating is properly applied and provides the maximum level of protection and aesthetic enhancement. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Aftercare products and instructions for your 2021 Cadillac CT4V Ceramic Coating and Polishing <br/> </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="font-weight: bolder; display: initial;"> Car care products we love: </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Drying towel(s): Autofiber Dreadnought 20”x30” x1:  </span> </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/7vLodsX" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Cd5Y9w </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Smaller drying towel (can also be used on glass) x2 (one for paint, one for wheels): Autofiber Dreadnought Jr. 16”x16” –  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/gJGS5mz" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3iazPbX </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Wash mitt: Autofiber Zero Cuff Wash Mitt x2 (one in black for wheels, one other color for paint):  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/4XX0iFr" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WYu3Jw </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Auto detailing towels, general purpose (wiping off bird poop, quick wipe up, interior, etc): Autofiber Elite detailing towel:  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/eJk4HyL" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3IeLiSo </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Wheel drying/detailing microfiber towels, black: Autofiber Zero Edge:  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/49yXFXy" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z0GJBe </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Quick detailer/glass cleaner/waterless wash/rinseless wash concentrate: American Detailer Garage Wipeout (can be diluted and lasts a very long time):  </span> <a href="https://www.autofiber.com/products/wipeout-hybrid-waterless-wash-concentrate-quart" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://www.autofiber.com/products/wipeout-hybrid-waterless-wash-concentrate-quart </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Spray bottles for ADG Wipeout and other products:  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/09t0dNA" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Q3kxT5 </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Buckets with grit guards x2 (one for wheels, one for paint):  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/bHxCrt3" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3jxjnmq </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Pre-treatment and wheel cleaner, American Detailer Garage F-Bomb diluted 10:1 (can be used 20:1 for interior): https://www.autofiber.com/products/f-bomb-multi-purpose-cleaner-gallon </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> The best wheel cleaning tool we have ever used, the Autofiber Barrel blade (reaches the barrel, between the brake caliper, and narrow spokes):  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/8lTq2BE" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z0wnkK </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Foam cannon wash tools for auto detailing, the MTM Hydro PF22.2 has a wide base to prevent tipping:  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/5BDGBDa" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WE591K </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> American Detailer Garage Fuzion foaming hybrid wash (for use in foam cannon, use 2+ ounces per fill):  </span> <a href="https://www.autofiber.com/products/f-bomb-multi-purpose-cleaner-gallon" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://www.autofiber.com/products/fuzion-hybrid-foaming-wash-concentrate-gallon </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Microfiber detergent to extend the life of your Autofiber microfiber and other towels:  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/5rRKvo7" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3jBxp6B </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Optional but useful for trucks and SUVs: Autofiber Mitt on a Stick Pro.  </span> <a href="https://www.autofiber.com/products/mitt-on-a-stick-pro-adjustable-wash-tool-with-360-locking-head-long-pole-35-to-83?variant=40748237816001" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://www.autofiber.com/products/mitt-on-a-stick-pro-adjustable-wash-tool-with-360-locking-head-long-pole-35-to-83?variant=40748237816001 </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Our most favorite detailing tool we have is our Adam’s Spot-Free Water system.

Here’s a key benefit of polishing your Chevy Silverado: </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Restoration of Paint Clarity and Gloss </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Over time, a vehicle’s paint can become dull, faded, and develop imperfections such as fine scratches and swirl marks. Polishing involves the use of abrasive compounds and a polishing machine to gently remove a thin layer of clear coat, effectively leveling the surface. This process restores the clarity and gloss of the paint, giving your Chevy Silverado a vibrant and showroom-like shine. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Polishing can be especially beneficial for older vehicles or those that have been exposed to harsh weather conditions, road debris, and environmental contaminants. By eliminating minor imperfections, the paint will reflect light more evenly, resulting in a deeper and more appealing finish. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> It’s important to note that polishing should be followed by appropriate protective steps, such as applying wax, sealant, or a ceramic coating, to help maintain the restored finish and protect it from future damage. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Before undertaking any polishing or detailing work, it’s recommended to do your research or consult with a professional detailer to ensure you’re using the correct products and techniques for your Chevy Silverado’s specific paint type and condition. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Aftercare products and instructions for your 2020 Chevy Silverado Polishing and Ceramic Coating <br/> </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;

So today we have a 2023 Ford F150 paint protection film project in the shop to stop rock chips on this brand new King Ranch. We will be installing Autobahn performance films PPF/clear bra, which carries a lifetime warranty against yellowing, cracking, and fading. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> The 2023 Ford F150 King Ranch is a top-of-the-line option for the best selling truck in America, and installing paint protection film on your 2023 Ford F150 is the right choice. Body shops typically produce inferior work than the factory (although almost every car we get from the factory we see defects even from robots). And then, once you start repainting panels you also lose the chance to get warranties from most film manufacturers. Body shops so often mess up the prep and cut corners that it’s common for paint to lift on repainted panels.

Here are some compelling reasons why applying PPF to your new F-150 can be a smart choice: </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Protection against Road Debris </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : PPF acts as a shield against rocks, stones, gravel, and other debris that can cause chips, scratches, and dings on your F-150’s paint and bodywork. This is particularly important for trucks that are often driven on highways, construction sites, and rough terrain. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Preservation of Aesthetics </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : PPF helps maintain the original appearance of your F-150’s paint finish, preventing damage and wear that can occur over time. This is especially important for new vehicles that you want to keep looking like new for years to come. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Prevention of UV Damage </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : PPF contains UV inhibitors that protect the paint from the sun’s harmful ultraviolet rays. UV exposure can lead to fading, oxidation, and deterioration of the paint finish over time. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Environmental Contaminant Defense </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : PPF guards against environmental contaminants such as bird droppings, tree sap, insect acids, and pollutants. These substances can quickly damage paint if left untreated, and PPF provides an additional layer of protection. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Resistance to Scratches and Swirl Marks </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : PPF has self-healing properties that allow minor scratches and swirl marks to disappear over time when exposed to heat. This helps maintain a smooth and unblemished paint surface. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Enhanced Resale Value </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : A well-maintained exterior, thanks to PPF, can contribute to a higher resale value when you decide to sell or trade in your Ford F-150. Potential buyers will be attracted to a truck that has been well cared for. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Long-Term Cost Savings </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : While the upfront cost of PPF installation may seem significant, it can save you money in the long run by reducing the need for frequent paint repairs, touch-ups, and potential repainting. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Custom Coverage Options </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : PPF can be applied to specific areas of your F-150, such as the front bumper, hood, fenders, mirrors, and other high-impact zones. You can choose the coverage that suits your driving habits and preferences. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Ease of Maintenance </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : PPF provides a smooth, hydrophobic surface that repels water, dirt, and grime. This makes cleaning and maintaining your Ford F-150 easier and less time-consuming. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Protection for Work and Play </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Many F-150 owners use their trucks for various purposes, including work, hauling, and off-roading. PPF helps protect the exterior from the rigors of these activities and ensures your truck remains in top condition. </span> </li> </ol> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> To ensure optimal results, select a reputable and experienced PPF installer who uses high-quality materials. Their expertise will ensure proper application, fitment, and coverage for your Ford F-150, maximizing the protective benefits of the film. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Aftercare products and instructions for your 2022 BMW X3 Ceramic Coating <br/> </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Car care products we love: </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Drying towel(s): Autofiber Dreadnought 20”x30” x1:  </span> </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Cd5Y9w" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Cd5Y9w </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Smaller drying towel (can also be used on glass) x2 (one for paint, one for wheels): Autofiber Dreadnought Jr. 16”x16” –  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/8PhLfCy" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3iazPbX </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Wash mitt: Autofiber Zero Cuff Wash Mitt x2 (one in black for wheels, one other color for paint):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3WYu3Jw" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WYu3Jw </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Auto detailing towels, general purpose (wiping off bird poop, quick wipe up, interior, etc): Autofiber Elite detailing towel:  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/4ThT2sp" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3IeLiSo </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Wheel drying/detailing microfiber towels, black: Autofiber Zero Edge:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Z0GJBe" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z0GJBe </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Quick detailer/glass cleaner/waterless wash/rinseless wash concentrate: American Detailer Garage Wipeout (can be diluted and lasts a very long time):  </span> <a href="https://www.autofiber.com/products/wipeout-hybrid-waterless-wash-concentrate-quart" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://www.autofiber.com/products/wipeout-hybrid-waterless-wash-concentrate-quart </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Spray bottles for ADG Wipeout and other products:  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/ipF288H" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Q3kxT5 </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Buckets with grit guards x2 (one for wheels, one for paint):  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/fNHfK4S" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3jxjnmq </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Pre-treatment and wheel cleaner, American Detailer Garage F-Bomb diluted 10:1 (can be used 20:1 for interior): https://www.autofiber.com/products/f-bomb-multi-purpose-cleaner-gallon </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> The best wheel cleaning tool we have ever used, the Autofiber Barrel blade (reaches the barrel, between the brake caliper, and narrow spokes):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Z0wnkK" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z0wnkK </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Foam cannon wash tools for auto detailing, the MTM Hydro PF22.2 has a wide base to prevent tipping:  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/5BDGBDa" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WE591K </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> American Detailer Garage Fuzion foaming hybrid wash (for use in foam cannon, use 2+ ounces per fill):  </span> <a href="https://www.autofiber.com/products/f-bomb-multi-purpose-cleaner-gallon" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://www.autofiber.com/products/fuzion-hybrid-foaming-wash-concentrate-gallon </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Microfiber detergent to extend the life of your Autofiber microfiber and other towels:  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/fOUG9xy" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3jBxp6B </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Optional but useful for trucks and SUVs: Autofiber Mitt on a Stick Pro.  </span> <a href="https://www.autofiber.com/products/mitt-on-a-stick-pro-adjustable-wash-tool-with-360-locking-head-long-pole-35-to-83?variant=40748237816001" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://www.autofiber.com/products/mitt-on-a-stick-pro-adjustable-wash-tool-with-360-locking-head-long-pole-35-to-83?variant=40748237816001 </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Our most favorite detailing tool we have is our Adam’s Spot-Free Water system.

We get this question all the time! It DOESN’T exist. The term ceramic wrap is a mixup of the terms ceramic coating (a liquid), vinyl wrap (a thin, cosmetic material that does not protect against rock chips and scratches), and PPF/clear bra/paint protection film (which is sometimes mistakenly called a wrap).  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> This is a term we are working on eliminating as we educate the Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights area on all of the benefits of both ceramic coating as well as PPF/clear bra/paint protection film. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> At Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings, we also do not install vinyl wraps, and while vinyl wraps do seem to be similar to PPF/clear bra, they are not. Again, vinyl wraps are meant to change the appearance of a vehicle and are typically installed dry, whereas PPF is installed wet, with soapy water.  <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CERAMIC COATING AND PPF? <br/> </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <ul> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Ceramic Coating: A ceramic coating is a liquid applied directly to the vehicle’s paint. It forms a semi-permanent and protective layer that bonds with the paint surface, enhancing its durability and resisting various environmental contaminants, including UV rays, bird droppings, tree sap, and mores. Ceramic coatings primarily offer an easier clean up and help remove contaminants from the paint, while enhancing the shine. This is not a ceramic wrap! </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Paint Protection Film (PPF): PPF, often known as clear bra or clear film, is a transparent polyurethane film that is applied to the vehicle’s exterior surfaces, such as the front bumper, hood, fenders, and side mirrors (we also often install it on all painted surfaces of a vehicle). PPF is designed to protect against physical damage, such as rock chips, road debris, and minor abrasions. It acts as a barrier between the paint and potential impact. </span> </li> </ul> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> A FINAL WORD ON CERAMIC WRAP FROM THE INTERNET: </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> People often mistakenly use the term “ceramic wrap” because it combines two popular automotive terms, “ceramic” and “wrap,” which are sometimes associated with car care and aesthetics. Here are some reasons why this term is used incorrectly: </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Confusion with Ceramic Coatings: “Ceramic” is commonly associated with ceramic coatings, which are a protective layer applied to a car’s paint to enhance its durability and appearance. People may mistakenly use “ceramic wrap” when they actually mean “ceramic coating.” </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Similarity to Vinyl Wraps: “Wrap” is frequently used in the context of vinyl car wraps, which are adhesive films applied to the exterior of a vehicle to change its color or add graphics. People might combine “ceramic” with “wrap” to describe a hypothetical combination of a ceramic coating and a vinyl wrap. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Misinterpretation of Marketing: In some cases, marketing materials or sales pitches for automotive products or services may use catchy or trendy terms, leading consumers to believe that “ceramic wrap” is a legitimate product or service. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> General Lack of Understanding: Many car owners may not have a deep understanding of automotive detailing terminology and could simply be using the term based on hearsay or misinformation. </span> </li> </ol> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> To avoid confusion, it’s essential to use the correct terminology. If you’re interested in a particular automotive service or product, such as ceramic coatings or vinyl wraps, it’s best to research and ask for information using the precise terms associated with those products. </span> </p> </div> We are going to explain what a ceramic wrap is in this article by Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings, and what it means for you! faq Clear Bra / PPF 2022 BMW X3 Ceramic Coating 2023-09-09T09:24:48Z 2023-09-09T09:24:48Z <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: var( --e-global-typography-primary-font-weight );"> 2022 BMW X3 Ceramic Coating process in Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> This Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights area client brought us her 2022 BMW X3 for ceramic coating, and we did not disappoint! Installed on this 2022 BMW X3 is a three-year ceramic coating with extremely hydrophobic and slick properties. This three-year ceramic coating ensures that bug guts and road grime do not stick as well, making cleanup a breeze. Ensuring that you don’t have to scrub the paint to remove bug guts and bird droppings reduces scratches as a secondary benefit! Many swirls and scratches come from excessive pressure and aggressiveness while trying to clean up stubborn spots. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> We love that this ceramic coating can get wet in just two hours, which is probably the shortest time we’ve ever seen on a coating, allowing us to return vehicles to clients faster! After we installed this three-year ceramic coating on this 2023 BMW X3, we then applied a two-year ceramic coating to the wheels, and a one-year ceramic coating to the windshield. The wheel coating will make brake dust easier to clean up, and the glass coating acts the same as the paint coating – easy-to-remove bug guts and other grime. We hope you enjoy this 2022 BMW X3 ceramic coating project as much as we did! </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="font-weight: var(--e-global-typography-primary-font-weight); display: unset;"> Book your 2022 BMW X3 Ceramic Coating service with us in Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights! </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Did you know, you can call OR text us at  </span> <a href="tell:254-55-4142" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> 254.550.4142 </a> <span style="display: initial;">  or  </span> <a href="https://hhceramiccoatings.com/contact-us" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> visit our contact us page </a> <span style="display: initial;"> !  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Apart from this, you can continue to read more about our ceramic coating and clear bra, and paint correction options below.

The ceramic coating forms a durable and transparent layer on the vehicle’s paint surface, providing long-lasting protection and enhancing its appearance. Here are several reasons why ceramic coating can be beneficial for a 2022 BMW X3: </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Enhanced Paint Protection </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Ceramic coatings create a hard and hydrophobic layer that shields the paint from a variety of environmental contaminants such as bird droppings, tree sap, insect acids, road salt, and UV rays. This protection helps prevent oxidation, fading, and discoloration of the paint over time. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Hydrophobic Properties </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : The hydrophobic nature of ceramic coatings means that water and other liquids bead up and roll off the surface. This makes washing the vehicle easier and reduces the chances of water spots and mineral deposits from adhering to the paint. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> UV Protection </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Ceramic coatings provide UV resistance, which helps shield the paint from the sun’s harmful ultraviolet rays. UV exposure can lead to paint fading and degradation over time, and a ceramic coating can help mitigate these effects. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Chemical Resistance </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : The chemical resistance of ceramic coatings makes them effective at repelling various chemicals and contaminants, including harsh cleaning agents and industrial fallout. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Long-Lasting Results </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Unlike traditional wax or sealants, ceramic coatings can offer protection that lasts for several years with proper maintenance. This means less frequent reapplication and a longer-lasting shine. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Enhanced Gloss and Shine </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Ceramic coatings can enhance the visual appearance of the paint by adding depth, gloss, and a “wet” look to the surface. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Ease of Maintenance </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : The hydrophobic properties of ceramic coatings make routine maintenance easier. Dirt and grime have a harder time adhering to the treated surface, making washing and cleaning less labor-intensive. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Resale Value </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : The added protection and well-maintained appearance provided by ceramic coatings can contribute to a higher resale value for your 2022 BMW X3 when you decide to sell or trade it in. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Professional Finish </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : When applied by a skilled professional, a ceramic coating can provide a superior finish that gives your BMW X3 a showroom-quality appearance. </span> </li> </ol> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> It’s important to note that while ceramic coatings offer significant benefits, they are not a replacement for proper washing, regular maintenance, and protective driving habits. Additionally, the effectiveness of a ceramic coating depends on the quality of the product, the skill of the installer, and how well you adhere to the recommended maintenance schedule. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Aftercare products and instructions for your 2022 BMW X3 Ceramic Coating <br/> </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Car care products we love: </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Drying towel(s): Autofiber Dreadnought 20”x30” x1:  </span> </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Cd5Y9w" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Cd5Y9w </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Smaller drying towel (can also be used on glass) x2 (one for paint, one for wheels): Autofiber Dreadnought Jr. 16”x16” –  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/3Yj0Ouw" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3iazPbX </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Wash mitt: Autofiber Zero Cuff Wash Mitt x2 (one in black for wheels, one other color for paint):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3WYu3Jw" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WYu3Jw </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Auto detailing towels, general purpose (wiping off bird poop, quick wipe up, interior, etc): Autofiber Elite detailing towel:  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/4ThT2sp" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3IeLiSo </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Wheel drying/detailing microfiber towels, black: Autofiber Zero Edge:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Z0GJBe" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z0GJBe </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Quick detailer/glass cleaner/waterless wash/rinseless wash concentrate: American Detailer Garage Wipeout (can be diluted and lasts a very long time):  </span> <a href="https://www.autofiber.com/products/wipeout-hybrid-waterless-wash-concentrate-quart" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://www.autofiber.com/products/wipeout-hybrid-waterless-wash-concentrate-quart </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Spray bottles for ADG Wipeout and other products:  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/ipF288H" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Q3kxT5 </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Buckets with grit guards x2 (one for wheels, one for paint):  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/fNHfK4S" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3jxjnmq </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Pre-treatment and wheel cleaner, American Detailer Garage F-Bomb diluted 10:1 (can be used 20:1 for interior): https://www.autofiber.com/products/f-bomb-multi-purpose-cleaner-gallon </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> The best wheel cleaning tool we have ever used, the Autofiber Barrel blade (reaches the barrel, between the brake caliper, and narrow spokes):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Z0wnkK" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z0wnkK </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Foam cannon wash tools for auto detailing, the MTM Hydro PF22.2 has a wide base to prevent tipping:  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/5BDGBDa" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WE591K </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> American Detailer Garage Fuzion foaming hybrid wash (for use in foam cannon, use 2+ ounces per fill):  </span> <a href="https://www.autofiber.com/products/f-bomb-multi-purpose-cleaner-gallon" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://www.autofiber.com/products/fuzion-hybrid-foaming-wash-concentrate-gallon </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Microfiber detergent to extend the life of your Autofiber microfiber and other towels:  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/gTaUstN" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3jBxp6B </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Optional but useful for trucks and SUVs: Autofiber Mitt on a Stick Pro.  </span> <a href="https://www.autofiber.com/products/mitt-on-a-stick-pro-adjustable-wash-tool-with-360-locking-head-long-pole-35-to-83?variant=40748237816001" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://www.autofiber.com/products/mitt-on-a-stick-pro-adjustable-wash-tool-with-360-locking-head-long-pole-35-to-83?variant=40748237816001 </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Our most favorite detailing tool we have is our Adam’s Spot-Free Water system.

Our track package consists of full hood, front bumper, fenders, mirrors, and rocker panels. In addition, we also cover the frame around the windshield (A-pillars and leading roof edge). I wanted to highlight this project that we used Autobahn Incognito film on to show much of our prep process, which helps explain where your money is going when choosing HHCC. I want you to see how much time and effort we spend on each car, yet still deliver a timely product. That said, we always prioritize quality over speed, and I firmly believe you cannot have good, fast, and cheap. So we tend to focus more on good and timely (fast might be a bit of an exaggeration, but we do knock out our projects on time). </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> This 2022 Mercedes SL55 AMG clear bra project had a couple of smaller situations that we wanted to highlight here. The hood is an oversized nearly 64″ long hood, which is bigger than the most common large roll size of 60″, and too big for 99% of PPF shops’ plotters to computer cut. I stock 12″, 18″, 24″, 30″, 36″, 48″, 60″ and 72″ rolls of Autobahn film, which is nearly every size on the market. This ensures we have the right film for the job. We also removed and replaced the BITURBO badges with OEM Mercedes badges, removed the and reinstalled the fender vents, and removed and replaced the Mercedes logo on the front bumper. We do this for extra clean installations and to ensure there was very little seams visible without looking very hard. Needless to say, the client could barely see the film. Clear bra/paint protection film/PPF will stop most rock chips and scratches!

Here’s why installing PPF on your Dodge Durango SRT can be beneficial: </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Protection from Road Debris: The Dodge Durango SRT is a performance-oriented SUV that may see spirited driving. PPF acts as a barrier against rocks, stones, gravel, and other debris that can cause chips, scratches, and dings on the vehicle’s paint and bodywork. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Preservation of Aesthetics: The SRT variant of the Durango often features unique styling cues, aggressive design elements, and distinct paint options. PPF helps maintain the pristine appearance of these features, preventing damage and wear that can occur over time. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Prevention of UV Damage: PPF contains UV inhibitors that shield the paint from the sun’s harmful ultraviolet rays. This protection helps prevent fading, discoloration, and deterioration of the paint finish. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Environmental Contaminant Defense: PPF guards against environmental contaminants such as bird droppings, tree sap, insect acids, and pollutants. These substances can quickly damage paint if left untreated, and PPF provides a protective barrier. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Scratch and Swirl Mark Resistance: PPF has self-healing properties that allow minor scratches and swirl marks to disappear over time when exposed to heat. This helps keep the paint surface looking smooth and unblemished. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Enhanced Resale Value: A well-maintained exterior, thanks to PPF, can contribute to a higher resale value when you decide to sell or trade in your Dodge Durango SRT. Prospective buyers will appreciate the vehicle’s excellent condition. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Long-Term Cost Savings: While the initial investment in PPF may seem significant, it can save you money in the long run by reducing the need for frequent paint repairs, touch-ups, and potential repainting. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Customized Coverage: PPF can be applied to specific areas of your Durango SRT, such as the front bumper, hood, fenders, mirrors, and other high-impact areas. You can customize the coverage based on your preferences and driving habits. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Ease of Maintenance: PPF provides a smooth, hydrophobic surface that repels water, dirt, and grime.

Well, it’s been about a year and a half! Just like our Durango we had a year and a half ago, this 2021 Dodge Durango SRT PPF project is getting a full front as well (hood, fenders, mirrors, and front bumper)! Our Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights client contacted us when he bought this new-to-him 2021 Dodge Durango SRT with only 10k or so miles on the clock. He is a soldier stationed in El Paso, but his family lives here – so he’s looking to protect his paint with all these highway miles he puts on the vehicle. He was in a bit of a time crunch as he was leaving quickly after buying it, so we snuck him in and got him taken care of! </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> After we finished this 2021 Dodge Durango SRT PPF project, we sent him over to our partners at Texas Elite Tint in Killeen for ceramic window tint.

Autobahn Incognito PPF is extremely glossy, hydrophobic, and installs really well. The Dodge Durango SRT has a “fun” hood with multiple vents, which sometimes can cause a challenge. Fortunately, Dodge re-uses a lot of their hoods and we have done many similar hoods, so doing only two Durangos in the last 18 months does not mean we lacked experience on these types of hoods. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="font-weight: var(--e-global-typography-primary-font-weight); display: unset;"> Book your 2021 Dodge Durango SRT PPF service with us in Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights! </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Did you know, you can call OR text us at  </span> <a href="tell:254-55-4142" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> 254.550.4142 </a> <span style="display: initial;">  or  </span> <a href="https://hhceramiccoatings.com/contact-us" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> visit our contact us page </a> <span style="display: initial;"> !  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Apart from this, you can continue to read more about our ceramic coating and clear bra, and paint correction options below.

Here’s why installing PPF on your Dodge Durango SRT can be beneficial: </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Protection from Road Debris </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : The Dodge Durango SRT is a performance-oriented SUV that may see spirited driving. PPF acts as a barrier against rocks, stones, gravel, and other debris that can cause chips, scratches, and dings on the vehicle’s paint and bodywork. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Preservation of Aesthetics </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : The SRT variant of the Durango often features unique styling cues, aggressive design elements, and distinct paint options. PPF helps maintain the pristine appearance of these features, preventing damage and wear that can occur over time. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Prevention of UV Damage </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : PPF contains UV inhibitors that shield the paint from the sun’s harmful ultraviolet rays. This protection helps prevent fading, discoloration, and deterioration of the paint finish. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Environmental Contaminant Defense </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : PPF guards against environmental contaminants such as bird droppings, tree sap, insect acids, and pollutants. These substances can quickly damage paint if left untreated, and PPF provides a protective barrier. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Scratch and Swirl Mark Resistance </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : PPF has self-healing properties that allow minor scratches and swirl marks to disappear over time when exposed to heat. This helps keep the paint surface looking smooth and unblemished. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Enhanced Resale Value </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : A well-maintained exterior, thanks to PPF, can contribute to a higher resale value when you decide to sell or trade in your Dodge Durango SRT. Prospective buyers will appreciate the vehicle’s excellent condition. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Long-Term Cost Savings </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : While the initial investment in PPF may seem significant, it can save you money in the long run by reducing the need for frequent paint repairs, touch-ups, and potential repainting. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Customized Coverage </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : PPF can be applied to specific areas of your Durango SRT, such as the front bumper, hood, fenders, mirrors, and other high-impact areas. You can customize the coverage based on your preferences and driving habits. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Ease of Maintenance </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : PPF provides a smooth, hydrophobic surface that repels water, dirt, and grime. This makes cleaning and maintaining your Dodge Durango SRT easier and less time-consuming. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Protection for Performance Vehicles </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : The Durango SRT is designed for performance and spirited driving. PPF helps protect the vehicle’s exterior from the rigors of high-speed driving, aggressive maneuvers, and exposure to various driving conditions. </span> </li> </ol> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> To ensure the best results, choose a reputable and experienced installer who uses high-quality PPF materials. Their expertise will ensure proper application, fitment, and coverage for your Dodge Durango SRT, maximizing the protective benefits of the film. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Aftercare products and instructions for your 2021 Dodge Durango SRT PPF <br/> </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Car care products we love: </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Drying towel(s): Autofiber Dreadnought 20”x30” x1:  </span> </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Cd5Y9w" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Cd5Y9w </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Smaller drying towel (can also be used on glass) x2 (one for paint, one for wheels): Autofiber Dreadnought Jr. 16”x16” –  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/eKZ58B0" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3iazPbX </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Wash mitt: Autofiber Zero Cuff Wash Mitt x2 (one in black for wheels, one other color for paint):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3WYu3Jw" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WYu3Jw </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Auto detailing towels, general purpose (wiping off bird poop, quick wipe up, interior, etc): Autofiber Elite detailing towel:  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/4ThT2sp" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3IeLiSo </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Wheel drying/detailing microfiber towels, black: Autofiber Zero Edge:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Z0GJBe" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z0GJBe </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Quick detailer/glass cleaner/waterless wash/rinseless wash concentrate: American Detailer Garage Wipeout (can be diluted and lasts a very long time):  </span> <a href="https://www.autofiber.com/products/wipeout-hybrid-waterless-wash-concentrate-quart" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://www.autofiber.com/products/wipeout-hybrid-waterless-wash-concentrate-quart </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Spray bottles for ADG Wipeout and other products:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Q3kxT5" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Q3kxT5 </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Buckets with grit guards x2 (one for wheels, one for paint):  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/fNHfK4S" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3jxjnmq </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Pre-treatment and wheel cleaner, American Detailer Garage F-Bomb diluted 10:1 (can be used 20:1 for interior): https://www.autofiber.com/products/f-bomb-multi-purpose-cleaner-gallon </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> The best wheel cleaning tool we have ever used, the Autofiber Barrel blade (reaches the barrel, between the brake caliper, and narrow spokes):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Z0wnkK" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z0wnkK </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Foam cannon wash tools for auto detailing, the MTM Hydro PF22.2 has a wide base to prevent tipping:  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/5BDGBDa" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WE591K </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> American Detailer Garage Fuzion foaming hybrid wash (for use in foam cannon, use 2+ ounces per fill):  </span> <a href="https://www.autofiber.com/products/f-bomb-multi-purpose-cleaner-gallon" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://www.autofiber.com/products/fuzion-hybrid-foaming-wash-concentrate-gallon </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Microfiber detergent to extend the life of your Autofiber microfiber and other towels:  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/fOUG9xy" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3jBxp6B </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Optional but useful for trucks and SUVs: Autofiber Mitt on a Stick Pro.  </span> <a href="https://www.autofiber.com/products/mitt-on-a-stick-pro-adjustable-wash-tool-with-360-locking-head-long-pole-35-to-83?variant=40748237816001" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://www.autofiber.com/products/mitt-on-a-stick-pro-adjustable-wash-tool-with-360-locking-head-long-pole-35-to-83?variant=40748237816001 </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Our most favorite detailing tool we have is our Adam’s Spot-Free Water system.

We had to complete the job and finish the rest of the car (the first time, the client was on short notice). For the ultimate vehicle protection, a full body clear bra/PPF/paint protection film is your best option – PPF will stop most rock chips and scratches. The real benefit that I personally love about full body PPF is how easy it is to clean without worrying about swirling the paint (PPF is self-healing). Now, PPF won’t stop hail damage or dings from inconsiderate people. But if someone opened a door into your car while you’re at HEB and runs away without leaving a note, if it would otherwise damage your paint requiring a body shop to fix, the PPF will likely stop the damaged paint. Then, you can reach out to paintless dent repair and not have to worry about a repaint. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> You know the full body PPF package is actually one of our most popular packages we offer!

Here’s why getting full body PPF on your Hyundai G70 can be a wise investment: </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Comprehensive Protection </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Full body PPF covers all exterior surfaces of your Hyundai G70, including the front bumper, hood, fenders, doors, side mirrors, rear bumper, and even the roof. This ensures that every vulnerable area is protected against a wide range of potential hazards. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Protection against Road Hazards </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : The road can pose various threats, including debris, stones, gravel, and bugs. Full body PPF acts as a barrier, preventing these elements from causing chips, scratches, and dings on your car’s paint and bodywork. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Preservation of Resale Value </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : A well-maintained vehicle with a flawless exterior can command a higher resale value. Full body PPF helps maintain your Hyundai G70’s appearance, making it more appealing to potential buyers when you decide to sell or trade in your car. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Minimization of Environmental Damage </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : PPF protects against environmental contaminants such as bird droppings, tree sap, insect acids, and pollutants. These substances can quickly damage paint if left untreated, and PPF provides a buffer to help prevent etching and staining. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Resistance to UV Rays </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : PPF contains UV inhibitors that guard against the sun’s harmful ultraviolet rays. UV exposure can lead to fading, oxidation, and deterioration of the paint over time. Full body PPF helps preserve your Hyundai G70’s paint color and finish. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Scratch and Swirl Mark Prevention </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Full body PPF has self-healing properties that allow minor scratches and swirl marks to disappear over time when exposed to heat. This feature keeps the paint surface looking smooth and blemish-free, even with daily wear. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Enhanced Aesthetics </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : PPF is virtually invisible and maintains the original appearance of your Hyundai G70. It doesn’t alter the color or finish of the paint, allowing you to enjoy the vehicle’s design without compromise. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Long-Term Cost Savings </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : While the upfront cost of full body PPF installation may seem significant, it can save you money in the long run by reducing the need for frequent paint repairs, touch-ups, and repainting. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Custom Coverage Options </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Full body PPF can be tailored to your preferences and needs. You can choose which areas to cover based on your driving habits, the level of protection desired, and the design of your Hyundai G70. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Ease of Maintenance </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : PPF provides a smooth, hydrophobic surface that repels water, dirt, and grime. This makes cleaning and maintaining your Hyundai G70’s exterior easier and less time-consuming. </span> </li> </ol> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> To ensure the best results, it’s important to select a reputable and experienced installer who uses high-quality PPF materials. They will ensure proper application, fitment, and coverage for your Hyundai G70, maximizing the protective benefits of the film. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Aftercare products and instructions for your 2023 Hyundai G70 full PPF process <br/> </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="font-weight: bolder; display: initial;"> Car care products we love: </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Drying towel(s): Autofiber Dreadnought 20”x30” x1:  </span> </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Cd5Y9w" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Cd5Y9w </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Smaller drying towel (can also be used on glass) x2 (one for paint, one for wheels): Autofiber Dreadnought Jr. 16”x16” –  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/iGlLaJr" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3iazPbX </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Wash mitt: Autofiber Zero Cuff Wash Mitt x2 (one in black for wheels, one other color for paint):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3WYu3Jw" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WYu3Jw </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Auto detailing towels, general purpose (wiping off bird poop, quick wipe up, interior, etc): Autofiber Elite detailing towel:  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/4ThT2sp" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3IeLiSo </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Wheel drying/detailing microfiber towels, black: Autofiber Zero Edge:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Z0GJBe" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z0GJBe </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Quick detailer/glass cleaner/waterless wash/rinseless wash concentrate: American Detailer Garage Wipeout (can be diluted and lasts a very long time):  </span> <a href="https://www.autofiber.com/products/wipeout-hybrid-waterless-wash-concentrate-quart" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://www.autofiber.com/products/wipeout-hybrid-waterless-wash-concentrate-quart </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Spray bottles for ADG Wipeout and other products:  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/ipF288H" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Q3kxT5 </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> 8.

Getting paint protection film on your new C8 Corvette, or any vehicle for that matter, can offer several benefits: </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Protection from Road Debris and Hazards: PPF acts as a barrier against rocks, stones, gravel, sand, and other debris that can cause chips, scratches, and dings on the car’s paint surface. This is particularly important for high-performance vehicles like the C8 Corvette, which often see spirited driving on various types of roads. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Preservation of Resale Value: Applying PPF can help maintain the pristine appearance of your Corvette’s paint finish. A well-maintained exterior can contribute to a higher resale value when you decide to sell or trade in your vehicle. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> UV and Environmental Protection: PPF typically includes UV inhibitors that protect the paint from the sun’s harmful ultraviolet rays, which can cause fading, oxidation, and deterioration over time. It can also guard against environmental contaminants such as bird droppings, tree sap, insect acids, and pollutants. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Minimization of Swirl Marks and Scratches: PPF has self-healing properties that allow minor scratches and swirl marks to disappear over time, as the material responds to heat. This can help keep the paint surface looking smooth and blemish-free. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Enhancement of Aesthetics: High-quality PPF is virtually invisible and maintains the glossy appearance of your vehicle’s paint. It does not alter the vehicle’s original color or finish, allowing you to enjoy the Corvette’s striking design without compromise. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Customization and Coverage Options: PPF can be applied to specific areas of your vehicle, such as the front bumper, hood, fenders, mirrors, and other high-impact areas. This allows you to customize the coverage based on your preferences and the level of protection you desire. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Ease of Maintenance: PPF provides a smooth, hydrophobic surface that repels water, dirt, and grime, making it easier to clean and maintain your vehicle’s appearance. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Long-Term Cost Savings: While the initial investment in PPF may seem relatively high, it can save you money in the long run by preventing the need for frequent paint touch-ups, repairs, and repainting. </span> </li> </ol> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> It’s important to note that the effectiveness and durability of PPF can vary based on the quality of the film and the installation process. Therefore, it’s recommended to choose a reputable and experienced installer who uses high-quality materials. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Ultimately, the decision to apply paint protection film to your new C8 Corvette depends on your personal preferences, driving habits, and priorities for maintaining the vehicle’s appearance and value over time. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Aftercare products and instructions for your 2023 C8 Red Mist PPF full body process <br/> </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Car care products we love: </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Drying towel(s): Autofiber Dreadnought 20”x30” x1:  </span> </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Cd5Y9w" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Cd5Y9w </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Smaller drying towel (can also be used on glass) x2 (one for paint, one for wheels): Autofiber Dreadnought Jr. 16”x16” –  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/4BPrSOQ" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3iazPbX </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Wash mitt: Autofiber Zero Cuff Wash Mitt x2 (one in black for wheels, one other color for paint):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3WYu3Jw" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WYu3Jw </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Auto detailing towels, general purpose (wiping off bird poop, quick wipe up, interior, etc): Autofiber Elite detailing towel:  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/4ThT2sp" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3IeLiSo </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Wheel drying/detailing microfiber towels, black: Autofiber Zero Edge:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Z0GJBe" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z0GJBe </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Quick detailer/glass cleaner/waterless wash/rinseless wash concentrate: American Detailer Garage Wipeout (can be diluted and lasts a very long time):  </span> <a href="https://www.autofiber.com/products/wipeout-hybrid-waterless-wash-concentrate-quart" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://www.autofiber.com/products/wipeout-hybrid-waterless-wash-concentrate-quart </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Spray bottles for ADG Wipeout and other products:  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/ipF288H" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Q3kxT5 </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Buckets with grit guards x2 (one for wheels, one for paint):  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/fNHfK4S" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3jxjnmq </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Pre-treatment and wheel cleaner, American Detailer Garage F-Bomb diluted 10:1 (can be used 20:1 for interior): https://www.autofiber.com/products/f-bomb-multi-purpose-cleaner-gallon </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> The best wheel cleaning tool we have ever used, the Autofiber Barrel blade (reaches the barrel, between the brake caliper, and narrow spokes):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Z0wnkK" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z0wnkK </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Foam cannon wash tools for auto detailing, the MTM Hydro PF22.2 has a wide base to prevent tipping:  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/5BDGBDa" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WE591K </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> American Detailer Garage Fuzion foaming hybrid wash (for use in foam cannon, use 2+ ounces per fill):  </span> <a href="https://www.autofiber.com/products/f-bomb-multi-purpose-cleaner-gallon" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://www.autofiber.com/products/fuzion-hybrid-foaming-wash-concentrate-gallon </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Microfiber detergent to extend the life of your Autofiber microfiber and other towels:  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/fOUG9xy" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3jBxp6B </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Optional but useful for trucks and SUVs: Autofiber Mitt on a Stick Pro.  </span> <a href="https://www.autofiber.com/products/mitt-on-a-stick-pro-adjustable-wash-tool-with-360-locking-head-long-pole-35-to-83?variant=40748237816001" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://www.autofiber.com/products/mitt-on-a-stick-pro-adjustable-wash-tool-with-360-locking-head-long-pole-35-to-83?variant=40748237816001 </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Our most favorite detailing tool we have is our Adam’s Spot-Free Water system.

No need to wonder anymore: they’re rusting flecks of iron or metal shards!  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> If your vehicle is brand new, and you’re trying to figure out how you have these spots, or even if your vehicle is older and a typical auto detailing just isn’t helping get out these pesky spots, look no further. What you need is iron and fallout remover.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> We like to use SB3 Decon as our go-to iron and fallout remover, but you may have heard of a type called Iron X by CarPro. Iron X works as well, but let me tell you something: Iron &amp; fallout removers STINK! SB3 Coatings Decon iron &amp; fallout remover does not stink NEARLY as bad as many, if not all, of the other iron and fallout removers on the market. These chemicals smell because of a chemical called Ammonium Mercaptoacetate, or, Thioglycolate acid. Something in Ammonium Mercaptoacetate, known as Mercaptan, is also added to propane and natural gas to add a smell (so we can actually smell it, since by nature, they are odorless).  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Iron can embed itself in your paint in a number of ways, even on a new vehicle, which is why we like to use SB3 Coatings Decon and a clay bar prior to any ceramic coating or clear bra/paint protection film/PPF installation. This is especially true on lighter-colored vehicles. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;">  – Train/rails sending metal shavings into the paint to rust  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> – Metal shipping containers  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> – Factories  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> – Brake dust  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> – Construction  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> – and more  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> It’s a good idea to decon your paint using SB3 Coatings Decon at least every six months or so. We like to agitate our iron and fallout remover here at Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings with a clay bar. Note: an aggressive clay bar on a darker vehicle may leave light marring on the paint that needs to be polished off. If you don’t want to use a clay bar, you can use a wash mitt.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Installation Instructions </span> </h2> <h2> <br/> </h2> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Step 1: Rinse/clean the vehicle to ensure the SB3 Coatings Decon can adequately touch/reach the painted surface in order to remove the iron deposits.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Step 2: Spray SB3 Coatings Decon onto the paint directly and wait for the reaction (purple color change, purple streaking).  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> (repeat as needed) Step 3: Agitate the surface with either a clay bar or wash mitt.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Step 4: Rinse the vehicle off and allow it to dry if you have an Adam’s Deionized water system as we have, or hand dry it if you don’t. Do not let SB3 Coatings Decon dry on the paint, and do not apply in the sunlight.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> For us, Step 5 and beyond usually entails polishing/paint correction/paint enhancement, ceramic coating, and/or clear bra/paint protection film/PPF. <span>  </span> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> &#55357;&#56596; If you find this content useful, please </span> </span> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkOqS-RpybYK_m7Y938vtuQ" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> subscribe to our YouTube channel </a> <span style="display: initial;"> ! &#55357;&#56596;  </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h3> <span style="display: initial;"> Contact </span> </h3> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;">  Want to talk about our SB3 Ceramic Coatings “Decon”?

This client came to us from about an hour away after seeing all of our videos installing clear bra on C8s in the area and reading our amazing reviews. In addition to installing paint protection film, we will be applying a ceramic coating to the rest of the vehicle (and on the wheels and glass). Initially, we were going to only be doing the front bumper and accents, and mirror on this 2023 C8 Stingray Paint Protection Film project, but after careful consideration, the owner decided to also protect the hood as well. This 2023 C8 Stingray also has the standard Jake vinyl you have seen on our other C8s we have done, namely this model year at the 70th anniversary edition Corvettes. However, the Jake stripe is often installed by the dealership, and this client intercepted the application of the stripe (which retails for about $500) to have us install paint protection film FIRST, and THEN have the dealer put the vinyl on top. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Because our Autobahn Incognito PPF is so hydrophobic, we had to use a special solvent called Acrysol to lessen the film’s hydrophobic properties to ensure the dealer can stick the Jake logo on.

Moreover, there are minimal differences between major film manufacturers like Autobahn, Xpel, SunTek, Eastman, Llumar, 3M, STEK clear bra, Flexishield, Global, Legend, and more.

Getting paint protection film on your new C8 Corvette, or any vehicle for that matter, can offer several benefits: </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Protection from Road Debris and Hazards </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : PPF acts as a barrier against rocks, stones, gravel, sand, and other debris that can cause chips, scratches, and dings on the car’s paint surface. This is particularly important for high-performance vehicles like the C8 Corvette, which often see spirited driving on various types of roads. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Preservation of Resale Value </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Applying PPF can help maintain the pristine appearance of your Corvette’s paint finish. A well-maintained exterior can contribute to a higher resale value when you decide to sell or trade in your vehicle. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> UV and Environmental Protection </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : PPF typically includes UV inhibitors that protect the paint from the sun’s harmful ultraviolet rays, which can cause fading, oxidation, and deterioration over time. It can also guard against environmental contaminants such as bird droppings, tree sap, insect acids, and pollutants. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Minimization of Swirl Marks and Scratches </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : PPF has self-healing properties that allow minor scratches and swirl marks to disappear over time, as the material responds to heat. This can help keep the paint surface looking smooth and blemish-free. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Enhancement of Aesthetics </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : High-quality PPF is virtually invisible and maintains the glossy appearance of your vehicle’s paint. It does not alter the vehicle’s original color or finish, allowing you to enjoy the Corvette’s striking design without compromise. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Customization and Coverage Options </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : PPF can be applied to specific areas of your vehicle, such as the front bumper, hood, fenders, mirrors, and other high-impact areas. This allows you to customize the coverage based on your preferences and the level of protection you desire. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Ease of Maintenance </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : PPF provides a smooth, hydrophobic surface that repels water, dirt, and grime, making it easier to clean and maintain your vehicle’s appearance. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Long-Term Cost Savings </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : While the initial investment in PPF may seem relatively high, it can save you money in the long run by preventing the need for frequent paint touch-ups, repairs, and repainting. </span> </li> </ol> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> It’s important to note that the effectiveness and durability of PPF can vary based on the quality of the film and the installation process. Therefore, it’s recommended to choose a reputable and experienced installer who uses high-quality materials. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Ultimately, the decision to apply paint protection film to your new C8 Corvette depends on your personal preferences, driving habits, and priorities for maintaining the vehicle’s appearance and value over time. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Aftercare products and instructions for your 2023 C8 Corvette Paint Protection Film and Ceramic Coating <br/> </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Car care products we love: </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Drying towel(s): Autofiber Dreadnought 20”x30” x1:  </span> </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Cd5Y9w" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Cd5Y9w </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Smaller drying towel (can also be used on glass) x2 (one for paint, one for wheels): Autofiber Dreadnought Jr. 16”x16” –  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3iazPbX" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3iazPbX </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Wash mitt: Autofiber Zero Cuff Wash Mitt x2 (one in black for wheels, one other color for paint):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3WYu3Jw" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WYu3Jw </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Auto detailing towels, general purpose (wiping off bird poop, quick wipe up, interior, etc): Autofiber Elite detailing towel:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3IeLiSo" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3IeLiSo </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Wheel drying/detailing microfiber towels, black: Autofiber Zero Edge:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Z0GJBe" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z0GJBe </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Quick detailer/glass cleaner/waterless wash/rinseless wash concentrate: American Detailer Garage Wipeout (can be diluted and lasts a very long time):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3WZkwlp" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WZkwlp </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Spray bottles for ADG Wipeout and other products:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Q3kxT5" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Q3kxT5 </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Buckets with grit guards x2 (one for wheels, one for paint):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3jxjnmq" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3jxjnmq </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Pre-treatment and wheel cleaner, American Detailer Garage F-Bomb diluted 10:1 (can be used 20:1 for interior):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3G1NV7w" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3G1NV7w </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> The best wheel cleaning tool we have ever used, the Autofiber Barrel blade (reaches the barrel, between the brake caliper, and narrow spokes):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Z0wnkK" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z0wnkK </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Foam cannon wash tools for auto detailing, the MTM Hydro PF22.2 has a wide base to prevent tipping:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3WE591K" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WE591K </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> American Detailer Garage Fuzion foaming hybrid wash (for use in foam cannon, use 2+ ounces per fill):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Z3MApg" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z3MApg </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Microfiber detergent to extend the life of your Autofiber microfiber and other towels:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3jBxp6B" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3jBxp6B </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Optional but useful for trucks and SUVs: Autofiber Mitt on a Stick Pro.  </span> <a href="https://www.autofiber.com/products/mitt-on-a-stick-pro-adjustable-wash-tool-with-360-locking-head-long-pole-35-to-83?variant=40748237816001" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://www.autofiber.com/products/mitt-on-a-stick-pro-adjustable-wash-tool-with-360-locking-head-long-pole-35-to-83?variant=40748237816001 </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Our most favorite detailing tool we have is our Adam’s Spot-Free Water system.

This is the second Autobahn Incognito PPF we have done for this Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights client, who originally booked with us to do his 2022 Mercedes SL55 AMG track package. Then, he was so happy, him and his wife brought us this stunning 2022 Acura MDX PPF project for a full front installation.

AFM/AFS trainers are some of the best in our country and owned by our friend, and mentor, Mike Norng. We never stop training here at Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings, and this is no exception. I (Matthew) have always wanted to get good at something much faster than you would expect, and clear bra/PPF/paint protection film training is no different. No one else in Central Texas has attended or hosted as many training events as I have. Now, you might be inclined to think, “Why does someone still need training after all this time?” The answer is simple: the moment you stop training is when you have failed both you, your business, and your clients! I always strive to deliver big-city quality to our small Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights area. This 2023 Dodge Challenger Hellcat PPF project was no different! This 2023 Dodge Challenger received a full body PPF and ten year ceramic coating! </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="font-weight: var(--e-global-typography-primary-font-weight); display: unset;"> 2022 Acura MDX PPF &amp; Ceramic Coating service with us in Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights! </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Did you know, you can call OR text us at  </span> <a href="tell:254-55-4142" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> 254.550.4142 </a> <span style="display: initial;">  or  </span> <a href="https://hhceramiccoatings.com/contact-us" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> visit our contact us page </a> <span style="display: initial;"> !  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Apart from this, you can continue to read more about our ceramic coating and clear bra, and paint correction options below.

If you’re referring to a specific model or variant introduced after September 2021, I recommend checking the latest sources from Acura or contacting an Acura dealership for accurate details about the Acura MDX S Type or any related models. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Aftercare products and instructions for your 2022 Acura MDX PPF &amp; Ceramic Coating <br/> </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Car care products we love: </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Drying towel(s): Autofiber Dreadnought 20”x30” x1:  </span> </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Cd5Y9w" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Cd5Y9w </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Smaller drying towel (can also be used on glass) x2 (one for paint, one for wheels): Autofiber Dreadnought Jr. 16”x16” –  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3iazPbX" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3iazPbX </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Wash mitt: Autofiber Zero Cuff Wash Mitt x2 (one in black for wheels, one other color for paint):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3WYu3Jw" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WYu3Jw </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Auto detailing towels, general purpose (wiping off bird poop, quick wipe up, interior, etc): Autofiber Elite detailing towel:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3IeLiSo" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3IeLiSo </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Wheel drying/detailing microfiber towels, black: Autofiber Zero Edge:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Z0GJBe" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z0GJBe </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Quick detailer/glass cleaner/waterless wash/rinseless wash concentrate: American Detailer Garage Wipeout (can be diluted and lasts a very long time):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3WZkwlp" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WZkwlp </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Spray bottles for ADG Wipeout and other products:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Q3kxT5" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Q3kxT5 </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Buckets with grit guards x2 (one for wheels, one for paint):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3jxjnmq" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3jxjnmq </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Pre-treatment and wheel cleaner, American Detailer Garage F-Bomb diluted 10:1 (can be used 20:1 for interior):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3G1NV7w" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3G1NV7w </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> The best wheel cleaning tool we have ever used, the Autofiber Barrel blade (reaches the barrel, between the brake caliper, and narrow spokes):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Z0wnkK" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z0wnkK </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Foam cannon wash tools for auto detailing, the MTM Hydro PF22.2 has a wide base to prevent tipping:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3WE591K" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WE591K </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> American Detailer Garage Fuzion foaming hybrid wash (for use in foam cannon, use 2+ ounces per fill):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Z3MApg" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z3MApg </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Microfiber detergent to extend the life of your Autofiber microfiber and other towels:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3jBxp6B" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3jBxp6B </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Optional but useful for trucks and SUVs: Autofiber Mitt on a Stick Pro.  </span> <a href="https://www.autofiber.com/products/mitt-on-a-stick-pro-adjustable-wash-tool-with-360-locking-head-long-pole-35-to-83?variant=40748237816001" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://www.autofiber.com/products/mitt-on-a-stick-pro-adjustable-wash-tool-with-360-locking-head-long-pole-35-to-83?variant=40748237816001 </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Our most favorite detailing tool we have is our Adam’s Spot-Free Water system.

At a later time we will be replacing the front bumper dealer-installed PPF, as well. We topped off this 2020 Toyota Supra PPF project with a three year ceramic coating on all of the exterior surfaces, except for the wheels (which received a two year ceramic coating) and windshield (one year ceramic coating). </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> The tricky part of this 2020 Toyota Supra PPF project is that the hood is oversized and requires a 72″ roll of film. This requires more time, and a second set of hands, if you have them. Typically, you want to work faster, as well. We also removed the hood vents on this 2020 Toyota Supra hood to install PPF more cleanly. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="font-weight: var(--e-global-typography-primary-font-weight); display: unset;"> Book your 2020 Toyota Supra PPF &amp; Ceramic Coating service with us in Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights! </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Did you know, you can call OR text us at  </span> <a href="tell:254-55-4142" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> 254.550.4142 </a> <span style="display: initial;">  or  </span> <a href="https://hhceramiccoatings.com/contact-us" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> visit our contact us page </a> <span style="display: initial;"> !  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Apart from this, you can continue to read more about our ceramic coating and clear bra, and paint correction options below.

Moreover, there are minimal differences between major film manufacturers like Autobahn, Xpel, SunTek, Eastman, Llumar, 3M, STEK clear bra, Flexishield, Global, Legend, and more.

We have a full selection of how to videos for detailing your freshly-ceramic coated vehicle, just like this 2023 Lexus RX350h ceramic coating! </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: var(--e-global-typography-primary-font-weight);"> Book your 2023 Lexus RX350h ceramic coating service with us in Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights! </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Did you know, you can call OR text us at  </span> <a href="tell:254-55-4142" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> 254.550.4142 </a> <span style="display: initial;">  or  </span> <a href="https://hhceramiccoatings.com/contact-us" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> visit our contact us page </a> <span style="display: initial;"> !  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Apart from this, you can continue to read more about our ceramic coating and clear bra, and paint correction options below.

The TRX Tyrant Performance packages push the supercharged 6.2-liter (376 cubic-inch) HEMI HELLCAT V8 from 702 horsepower and 650 lb.-ft. of torque, to an impressive 787 horsepower and 702 lb.-ft. of torque (a gain of 85 horsepower and 52 lb.-ft. of torque). The added power is good enough to push the massive pickup to a 1/4-mile time of 11.84 sec. @ 114 mph, an increase of .9 seconds and 8 mph over a stock TRX. You can read more about it here: https://moparinsiders.com/meet-the-787-horsepower-2023-ram-1500-trx-tyrant-performance-off-roader/ </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> We removed the badging and cleaned up the area with a polisher before applying a ceramic coating. Because the ceramic coating will prevent the RAM TRX Tyrant badges from adhering properly, the owner will bring us the Tyrant back so we can polish off the ceramic coating and re-apply new badges once they arrive. This is the same reason bugs won’t stick to the car, which is a good thing – it means you have a good ceramic coating, just like this 2023 RAM TRX Tyrant ceramic coating. This is not the first RAM TRX, nor Raptor (its competitor) we have worked on. We installed PPF and ceramic coating on a 2022 RAM TRX last year and ceramic coating on a 2022 Ford F150 Raptor and 2019 F150 Raptor. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: var(--e-global-typography-primary-font-weight);"> 2023 RAM TRX Tyrant - Ceramic Coating &amp; debadging service with us in Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights! </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Did you know, you can call OR text us at  </span> <a href="tell:254-55-4142" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> 254.550.4142 </a> <span style="display: initial;">  or  </span> <a href="https://hhceramiccoatings.com/contact-us" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> visit our contact us page </a> <span style="display: initial;"> !  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Apart from this, you can continue to read more about our ceramic coating and clear bra, and paint correction options below.

They can withstand exposure to harsh chemicals such as acidic cleaners or industrial fallout, which might otherwise etch or damage the paint finish. This makes it easier to clean the Ram TRX and reduces the risk of chemical-induced paint damage. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Hydrophobic Effect: Ceramic coatings offer hydrophobic properties, meaning they repel water and other liquids. As a result, water, dirt, and mud slide off the vehicle’s surface more easily, making it easier to clean and maintain. The hydrophobic effect also helps to minimize water spots and prevents contaminants from adhering to the paint, keeping the Ram TRX looking cleaner for longer. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Gloss and Shine: Ceramic coatings can enhance the visual appearance of the Ram TRX by providing a deep gloss and shine. The coating reflects light and can make the paint look more vibrant and smooth. It gives the vehicle a showroom-like finish and helps to maintain its aesthetic appeal. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Longevity: Ceramic coatings are known for their durability and longevity. When properly applied and maintained, they can last for several years, providing ongoing protection to the Ram TRX. This can help to preserve the vehicle’s resale value and keep it looking newer for an extended period. </span> </li> </ol> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> It’s important to note that while ceramic coating offers significant benefits, it is not an invincible solution. It does not make the vehicle completely impervious to scratches or dents, and regular maintenance and care are still necessary to ensure its effectiveness. Additionally, professional application of ceramic coating is recommended to achieve the best results and ensure proper bonding to the vehicle’s surfaces. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Aftercare products and instructions for your 2023 RAM TRX Tyrant - Ceramic Coating &amp; debadging <span>  </span> <br/> </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Car care products we love: </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Drying towel(s): Autofiber Dreadnought 20”x30” x1:  </span> </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Cd5Y9w" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Cd5Y9w </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Smaller drying towel (can also be used on glass) x2 (one for paint, one for wheels): Autofiber Dreadnought Jr. 16”x16” –  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3iazPbX" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3iazPbX </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Wash mitt: Autofiber Zero Cuff Wash Mitt x2 (one in black for wheels, one other color for paint):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3WYu3Jw" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WYu3Jw </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Auto detailing towels, general purpose (wiping off bird poop, quick wipe up, interior, etc): Autofiber Elite detailing towel:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3IeLiSo" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3IeLiSo </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Wheel drying/detailing microfiber towels, black: Autofiber Zero Edge:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Z0GJBe" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z0GJBe </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Quick detailer/glass cleaner/waterless wash/rinseless wash concentrate: American Detailer Garage Wipeout (can be diluted and lasts a very long time):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3WZkwlp" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WZkwlp </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Spray bottles for ADG Wipeout and other products:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Q3kxT5" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Q3kxT5 </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Buckets with grit guards x2 (one for wheels, one for paint):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3jxjnmq" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3jxjnmq </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Pre-treatment and wheel cleaner, American Detailer Garage F-Bomb diluted 10:1 (can be used 20:1 for interior):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3G1NV7w" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3G1NV7w </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> The best wheel cleaning tool we have ever used, the Autofiber Barrel blade (reaches the barrel, between the brake caliper, and narrow spokes):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Z0wnkK" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z0wnkK </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Foam cannon wash tools for auto detailing, the MTM Hydro PF22.2 has a wide base to prevent tipping:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3WE591K" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WE591K </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> American Detailer Garage Fuzion foaming hybrid wash (for use in foam cannon, use 2+ ounces per fill):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Z3MApg" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z3MApg </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Microfiber detergent to extend the life of your Autofiber microfiber and other towels:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3jBxp6B" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3jBxp6B </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Optional but useful for trucks and SUVs: Autofiber Mitt on a Stick Pro.  </span> <a href="https://www.autofiber.com/products/mitt-on-a-stick-pro-adjustable-wash-tool-with-360-locking-head-long-pole-35-to-83?variant=40748237816001" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://www.autofiber.com/products/mitt-on-a-stick-pro-adjustable-wash-tool-with-360-locking-head-long-pole-35-to-83?variant=40748237816001 </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Our most favorite detailing tool we have is our Adam’s Spot-Free Water system.

PPF is a transparent, self-healing film that is applied to the painted surfaces of a vehicle to provide an additional layer of protection against scratches, chips, and other minor damages that can occur during regular use. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Here are some benefits of Autobahn Incognito paint protection film on a Tesla Model 3: </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Paint Protection: The primary purpose of Autobahn Incognito PPF is to protect the paint on your Tesla Model 3 from various external elements. It acts as a shield against road debris, gravel, stones, and other objects that can cause scratches or chips on the vehicle’s surface. The film helps to preserve the original paint and maintain its pristine condition for longer. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Self-Healing Properties: Autobahn Incognito PPF possesses self-healing properties, which means that it has the ability to repair minor scratches and swirl marks on its own. The film’s topcoat has a memory function that allows it to revert to its original state when exposed to heat or sunlight. This feature helps to keep the film looking clear and free of visible blemishes. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Durability: Autobahn Incognito PPF is known for its durability and longevity. It is engineered to withstand various environmental conditions, including UV radiation, high temperatures, and harsh weather. The film provides a reliable barrier against fading, discoloration, and damage caused by exposure to the elements, ensuring that your Tesla Model 3 retains its glossy appearance for an extended period. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Easy Maintenance: Cleaning and maintaining a Tesla Model 3 with Autobahn Incognito PPF is relatively easy. The film’s surface is designed to resist staining and can be cleaned using mild soapy water or dedicated PPF cleaners. Unlike unprotected paint surfaces, the PPF’s hydrophobic properties repel dirt, water, and contaminants, making it easier to keep your vehicle looking clean and shiny. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Enhanced Resale Value: Applying Autobahn Incognito PPF to your Tesla Model 3 can potentially increase its resale value. The film acts as a protective barrier, preventing the paint from developing unsightly scratches and chips over time. A well-maintained PPF can make your vehicle more appealing to potential buyers and give them confidence that the paint is in excellent condition. </span> </li> </ol> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> It’s worth noting that the specific features and benefits of Autobahn Incognito PPF may vary based on the product version or package you choose. It’s always recommended to consult a professional installer or contact the manufacturer for detailed information and ensure proper installation on your Tesla Model 3. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Aftercare products and instructions for your Lifetime Warranty PPF Install - Tesla Model 3 <br/> </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Car care products we love: </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Drying towel(s): Autofiber Dreadnought 20”x30” x1:  </span> </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Cd5Y9w" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Cd5Y9w </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Smaller drying towel (can also be used on glass) x2 (one for paint, one for wheels): Autofiber Dreadnought Jr. 16”x16” –  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3iazPbX" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3iazPbX </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Wash mitt: Autofiber Zero Cuff Wash Mitt x2 (one in black for wheels, one other color for paint):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3WYu3Jw" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WYu3Jw </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Auto detailing towels, general purpose (wiping off bird poop, quick wipe up, interior, etc): Autofiber Elite detailing towel:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3IeLiSo" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3IeLiSo </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Wheel drying/detailing microfiber towels, black: Autofiber Zero Edge:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Z0GJBe" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z0GJBe </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Quick detailer/glass cleaner/waterless wash/rinseless wash concentrate: American Detailer Garage Wipeout (can be diluted and lasts a very long time):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3WZkwlp" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WZkwlp </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Spray bottles for ADG Wipeout and other products:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Q3kxT5" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Q3kxT5 </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Buckets with grit guards x2 (one for wheels, one for paint):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3jxjnmq" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3jxjnmq </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Pre-treatment and wheel cleaner, American Detailer Garage F-Bomb diluted 10:1 (can be used 20:1 for interior):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3G1NV7w" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3G1NV7w </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> The best wheel cleaning tool we have ever used, the Autofiber Barrel blade (reaches the barrel, between the brake caliper, and narrow spokes):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Z0wnkK" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z0wnkK </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Foam cannon wash tools for auto detailing, the MTM Hydro PF22.2 has a wide base to prevent tipping:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3WE591K" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WE591K </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> American Detailer Garage Fuzion foaming hybrid wash (for use in foam cannon, use 2+ ounces per fill):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Z3MApg" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z3MApg </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Microfiber detergent to extend the life of your Autofiber microfiber and other towels:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3jBxp6B" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3jBxp6B </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Optional but useful for trucks and SUVs: Autofiber Mitt on a Stick Pro.  </span> <a href="https://www.autofiber.com/products/mitt-on-a-stick-pro-adjustable-wash-tool-with-360-locking-head-long-pole-35-to-83?variant=40748237816001" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://www.autofiber.com/products/mitt-on-a-stick-pro-adjustable-wash-tool-with-360-locking-head-long-pole-35-to-83?variant=40748237816001 </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Our most favorite detailing tool we have is our Adam’s Spot-Free Water system.

It offers a range of benefits and is popular among car enthusiasts for its ability to enhance and preserve the appearance of the vehicle. Here’s what you should know about ceramic coating: </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Protection against Environmental Elements: Ceramic coating provides a durable and protective barrier against various environmental elements. It can help shield the paint of the Chevy Camaro SS from UV rays, oxidation, fading, and chemical contaminants like bird droppings, tree sap, and harsh chemicals. The coating forms a hydrophobic layer, making it easier to clean and reducing the adhesion of dirt and grime. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Enhanced Gloss and Shine: One of the primary benefits of ceramic coating is its ability to enhance the gloss and shine of the vehicle’s paintwork. The coating adds depth and clarity to the Camaro SS’s paint, giving it a more vibrant and luxurious appearance. The car will have a “wet-look” finish that can make it stand out on the road. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Resistance to Swirl Marks and Minor Scratches: Ceramic coating has some level of resistance to swirl marks and minor scratches. While it won’t make the Camaro SS completely impervious to scratches, the coating can help reduce their visibility and prevent them from penetrating deep into the clear coat. This can help maintain a more flawless and pristine finish. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Longevity: Compared to traditional wax or sealant, ceramic coating offers greater longevity. Depending on the product and application, a ceramic coating can last for several years with proper maintenance. This long-lasting protection can save you time and money on regular waxing or reapplication. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Professional Application: For optimal results, it is recommended to have ceramic coating applied by a professional detailer. The process involves thorough cleaning and preparation of the Camaro SS’s paint, followed by the application of the ceramic coating using specialized techniques. Professional installation ensures even coverage, durability, and the best possible results. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Maintenance: While ceramic coating reduces the effort needed for maintenance, proper care is still essential. Regular washing using gentle methods and products, along with avoiding harsh chemicals and automatic car washes, will help maintain the integrity and longevity of the ceramic coating. </span> </li> </ol> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> It’s important to note that ceramic coating is not a guarantee against all forms of damage, and it does not eliminate the need for regular car maintenance. However, it can provide significant benefits in terms of protection, appearance, and ease of maintenance for your Chevy Camaro SS. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Aftercare products and instructions for your 2021 Chevy Camaro SS Paint Correction &amp; Ceramic Coating <br/> </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Car care products we love: </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Drying towel(s): Autofiber Dreadnought 20”x30” x1:  </span> </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Cd5Y9w" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Cd5Y9w </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Smaller drying towel (can also be used on glass) x2 (one for paint, one for wheels): Autofiber Dreadnought Jr. 16”x16” –  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/4BPrSOQ" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3iazPbX </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Wash mitt: Autofiber Zero Cuff Wash Mitt x2 (one in black for wheels, one other color for paint):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3WYu3Jw" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WYu3Jw </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Auto detailing towels, general purpose (wiping off bird poop, quick wipe up, interior, etc): Autofiber Elite detailing towel:  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/4ThT2sp" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3IeLiSo </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Wheel drying/detailing microfiber towels, black: Autofiber Zero Edge:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Z0GJBe" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z0GJBe </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Quick detailer/glass cleaner/waterless wash/rinseless wash concentrate: American Detailer Garage Wipeout (can be diluted and lasts a very long time):  </span> <a href="https://www.autofiber.com/products/wipeout-hybrid-waterless-wash-concentrate-quart" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://www.autofiber.com/products/wipeout-hybrid-waterless-wash-concentrate-quart </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Spray bottles for ADG Wipeout and other products:  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/ipF288H" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Q3kxT5 </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Buckets with grit guards x2 (one for wheels, one for paint):  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/fNHfK4S" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3jxjnmq </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Pre-treatment and wheel cleaner, American Detailer Garage F-Bomb diluted 10:1 (can be used 20:1 for interior): https://www.autofiber.com/products/f-bomb-multi-purpose-cleaner-gallon </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> The best wheel cleaning tool we have ever used, the Autofiber Barrel blade (reaches the barrel, between the brake caliper, and narrow spokes):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Z0wnkK" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z0wnkK </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Foam cannon wash tools for auto detailing, the MTM Hydro PF22.2 has a wide base to prevent tipping:  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/5BDGBDa" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WE591K </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> American Detailer Garage Fuzion foaming hybrid wash (for use in foam cannon, use 2+ ounces per fill):  </span> <a href="https://www.autofiber.com/products/f-bomb-multi-purpose-cleaner-gallon" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://www.autofiber.com/products/fuzion-hybrid-foaming-wash-concentrate-gallon </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Microfiber detergent to extend the life of your Autofiber microfiber and other towels:  </span> <a href="https://a.co/d/fOUG9xy" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3jBxp6B </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Optional but useful for trucks and SUVs: Autofiber Mitt on a Stick Pro.  </span> <a href="https://www.autofiber.com/products/mitt-on-a-stick-pro-adjustable-wash-tool-with-360-locking-head-long-pole-35-to-83?variant=40748237816001" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://www.autofiber.com/products/mitt-on-a-stick-pro-adjustable-wash-tool-with-360-locking-head-long-pole-35-to-83?variant=40748237816001 </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Our most favorite detailing tool we have is our Adam’s Spot-Free Water system.

PPF can help protect the car’s paint from damage caused by rocks, gravel, road debris, and other hazards that can lead to scratches, chips, or dents. The film acts as a barrier, absorbing impacts and minimizing the risk of damage. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Preserving Resale Value: Adding PPF to a Dodge Challenger Hellcat can help preserve its resale value. The film provides a layer of protection that helps maintain the car’s original paint in pristine condition. When it comes time to sell or trade in the vehicle, having well-preserved paint can positively impact its value and appeal to potential buyers. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Enhanced Aesthetics: PPF can enhance the appearance of a Dodge Challenger Hellcat by adding a glossy, uniform finish. The film can deepen the color and shine of the car’s paint, giving it a vibrant and showroom-quality look. Additionally, PPF is designed to be optically clear, ensuring that the intricate design details and body lines of the Challenger Hellcat are still visible. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Easy Maintenance: PPF makes it easier to maintain the exterior of a Dodge Challenger Hellcat. The film provides a protective layer that is resistant to staining, fading, and UV damage. It is also easier to clean compared to bare paint, as contaminants can be more easily removed from the smooth surface of the film. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Longevity and Warranty: PPF is known for its durability and longevity. High-quality PPF products often come with warranties that cover yellowing, peeling, and other forms of degradation. This gives owners peace of mind, knowing that their Dodge Challenger Hellcat’s paint is protected for an extended period. </span> </li> </ol> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> It’s important to note that PPF is not a substitute for regular car maintenance, and it does not make a vehicle impervious to all forms of damage. However, it can significantly reduce the risk of common road hazards and help maintain the appearance of the Dodge Challenger Hellcat over time. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> AFTERCARE INSTRUCTIONS AND PRODUCTS FOR YOUR 2023 C8 Corvette PPF replacement <br/> </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Car care products we love: </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Drying towel(s): Autofiber Dreadnought 20”x30” x1:  </span> </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Cd5Y9w" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Cd5Y9w </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Smaller drying towel (can also be used on glass) x2 (one for paint, one for wheels): Autofiber Dreadnought Jr. 16”x16” –  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3iazPbX" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3iazPbX </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Wash mitt: Autofiber Zero Cuff Wash Mitt x2 (one in black for wheels, one other color for paint):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3WYu3Jw" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WYu3Jw </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Auto detailing towels, general purpose (wiping off bird poop, quick wipe up, interior, etc): Autofiber Elite detailing towel:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3IeLiSo" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3IeLiSo </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Wheel drying/detailing microfiber towels, black: Autofiber Zero Edge:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Z0GJBe" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z0GJBe </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Quick detailer/glass cleaner/waterless wash/rinseless wash concentrate: American Detailer Garage Wipeout (can be diluted and lasts a very long time):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3WZkwlp" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WZkwlp </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Spray bottles for ADG Wipeout and other products:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Q3kxT5" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Q3kxT5 </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Buckets with grit guards x2 (one for wheels, one for paint):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3jxjnmq" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3jxjnmq </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Pre-treatment and wheel cleaner, American Detailer Garage F-Bomb diluted 10:1 (can be used 20:1 for interior):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3G1NV7w" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3G1NV7w </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> The best wheel cleaning tool we have ever used, the Autofiber Barrel blade (reaches the barrel, between the brake caliper, and narrow spokes):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Z0wnkK" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z0wnkK </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Foam cannon wash tools for auto detailing, the MTM Hydro PF22.2 has a wide base to prevent tipping:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3WE591K" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WE591K </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> American Detailer Garage Fuzion foaming hybrid wash (for use in foam cannon, use 2+ ounces per fill):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Z3MApg" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z3MApg </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Microfiber detergent to extend the life of your Autofiber microfiber and other towels:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3jBxp6B" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3jBxp6B </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Optional but useful for trucks and SUVs: Autofiber Mitt on a Stick Pro.  </span> <a href="https://www.autofiber.com/products/mitt-on-a-stick-pro-adjustable-wash-tool-with-360-locking-head-long-pole-35-to-83?variant=40748237816001" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://www.autofiber.com/products/mitt-on-a-stick-pro-adjustable-wash-tool-with-360-locking-head-long-pole-35-to-83?variant=40748237816001 </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Our most favorite detailing tool we have is our Adam’s Spot-Free Water system.

Here are a few scenarios where PPF replacement might be necessary: </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Wear and Tear: Over time, PPF can accumulate wear and tear, especially if the vehicle is exposed to harsh conditions or undergoes frequent use. The film may develop scratches, swirl marks, or discoloration, diminishing its protective and aesthetic qualities. In such cases, replacing the PPF can restore the vehicle’s appearance and ensure continued protection. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Damaged Film: PPF is designed to absorb impacts and protect the underlying paint from scratches and chips. However, in more severe situations, such as a significant impact or collision, the PPF itself may become damaged. If the film is torn, punctured, or has deep scratches that compromise its integrity, it is advisable to replace it to maintain effective protection. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Age and Fading: Over time, PPF may show signs of aging, such as yellowing or fading. This can occur due to prolonged exposure to sunlight and environmental factors. If the PPF becomes discolored or loses its clarity, replacing it can restore the protective and aesthetic benefits. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Installation Issues: If the PPF was initially installed incorrectly or by an inexperienced installer, it may develop problems such as lifting, peeling, or visible edges. In such cases, it is recommended to have the PPF replaced by a professional installer who can ensure a proper and seamless installation. </span> </li> </ol> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> It’s important to note that the lifespan of PPF can vary depending on the quality of the film, environmental conditions, and maintenance.

The purpose of PPF is to protect the car’s paint from scratches, stone chips, and other minor damages that can occur during daily use. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: var(--e-global-typography-text-font-weight);"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> When it comes to the C8 Corvette HTC (Hardtop Convertible), PPF can be a beneficial addition to help preserve the car’s beautiful exterior finish. Here are some key points about PPF on a C8 Corvette HTC: </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Protection: The C8 Corvette HTC features a sleek and aerodynamic design with a prominent front end and sculpted body lines. Applying PPF to the car’s vulnerable areas, such as the front bumper, hood, side mirrors, and fenders, can provide an added layer of protection against road debris, insects, and other potential sources of damage. PPF helps to prevent scratches and chips in the paint, keeping the car looking pristine. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Self-Healing Properties: Many modern PPF products offer self-healing properties. This means that the film has the ability to “heal” itself when it incurs light scratches or swirl marks. The film’s top layer has a memory feature that allows it to revert to its original smooth state when exposed to heat, such as sunlight or hot water. This self-healing characteristic helps to maintain the film’s clarity and keeps the C8 Corvette HTC looking flawless. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Optically Clear: High-quality PPF is designed to be optically clear, meaning it is virtually invisible once installed on the car’s surface. This ensures that the beautiful paint finish of the C8 Corvette HTC remains unaffected, allowing its color and shine to be fully appreciated. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Longevity: PPF is typically known for its durability and longevity. It can withstand various weather conditions, UV exposure, and everyday wear and tear. Most reputable PPF brands offer warranties, which can range from a few years to a decade or more, depending on the product and installer. This provides peace of mind knowing that the film will continue to protect the C8 Corvette HTC’s paint for an extended period. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Professional Installation: Applying PPF requires skill and expertise, so it is recommended to have it installed by a professional. The installer will carefully measure and cut the film to fit the specific contours of the C8 Corvette HTC. A proper installation ensures seamless coverage and maximum protection without any visible edges or bubbles. </span> </li> </ol> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> In summary, PPF is a transparent film that can be applied to the exterior surfaces of a C8 Corvette HTC to protect the paint from scratches, chips, and other minor damages. It provides an added layer of defense while preserving the car’s aesthetic appeal. Professional installation and high-quality PPF products are crucial to ensure optimal protection and a virtually invisible appearance. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> AFTERCARE INSTRUCTIONS AND PRODUCTS FOR YOUR 2023 C8 Corvette HTC PPF <br/> </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Car care products we love: </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Drying towel(s): Autofiber Dreadnought 20”x30” x1:  </span> </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Cd5Y9w" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Cd5Y9w </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Smaller drying towel (can also be used on glass) x2 (one for paint, one for wheels): Autofiber Dreadnought Jr. 16”x16” –  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3iazPbX" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3iazPbX </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Wash mitt: Autofiber Zero Cuff Wash Mitt x2 (one in black for wheels, one other color for paint):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3WYu3Jw" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WYu3Jw </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Auto detailing towels, general purpose (wiping off bird poop, quick wipe up, interior, etc): Autofiber Elite detailing towel:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3IeLiSo" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3IeLiSo </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Wheel drying/detailing microfiber towels, black: Autofiber Zero Edge:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Z0GJBe" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z0GJBe </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Quick detailer/glass cleaner/waterless wash/rinseless wash concentrate: American Detailer Garage Wipeout (can be diluted and lasts a very long time):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3WZkwlp" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WZkwlp </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Spray bottles for ADG Wipeout and other products:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Q3kxT5" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Q3kxT5 </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Buckets with grit guards x2 (one for wheels, one for paint):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3jxjnmq" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3jxjnmq </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Pre-treatment and wheel cleaner, American Detailer Garage F-Bomb diluted 10:1 (can be used 20:1 for interior):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3G1NV7w" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3G1NV7w </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> The best wheel cleaning tool we have ever used, the Autofiber Barrel blade (reaches the barrel, between the brake caliper, and narrow spokes):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Z0wnkK" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z0wnkK </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Foam cannon wash tools for auto detailing, the MTM Hydro PF22.2 has a wide base to prevent tipping:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3WE591K" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WE591K </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> American Detailer Garage Fuzion foaming hybrid wash (for use in foam cannon, use 2+ ounces per fill):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Z3MApg" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z3MApg </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Microfiber detergent to extend the life of your Autofiber microfiber and other towels:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3jBxp6B" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3jBxp6B </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Optional but useful for trucks and SUVs: Autofiber Mitt on a Stick Pro.  </span> <a href="https://www.autofiber.com/products/mitt-on-a-stick-pro-adjustable-wash-tool-with-360-locking-head-long-pole-35-to-83?variant=40748237816001" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://www.autofiber.com/products/mitt-on-a-stick-pro-adjustable-wash-tool-with-360-locking-head-long-pole-35-to-83?variant=40748237816001 </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Our most favorite detailing tool we have is our Adam’s Spot-Free Water system.

In some instances, cars can accumulate rock chips that will make future PPF installations look bad, because PPF is so thick, it cannot conform to rock chips. This leaves a white/gray raised air gap that may appear to be a bubble or debris under the film. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Clear bra/paint protection film, such as the PPF applied to this 2023 Hyundai Genesis G70, will protect against MOST rock chips and scratches, and provide UV protection to the vehicle’s paint. It also makes it easier to clean, as the PPF is self-healing – so you can be less concerned about swirling the paint (although you should still take care of the film) when washing. This 2023 Hyundai Genesis G70 PPF installation will keep this owner protected for at least 12 years. Our Legend PPF was the industry’s first 12 year warranty against yellowing, cracking, and fading. Many other manufacturers carry a 10 year warranty. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: var(--e-global-typography-primary-font-weight);"> Book your 2023 Hyundai Genesis G70 PPF/ceramic coating service with us in Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights! </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Did you know, you can call OR text us at  </span> <a href="tell:254-55-4142" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> 254.550.4142 </a> <span style="display: initial;">  or  </span> <a href="https://hhceramiccoatings.com/contact-us" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> visit our contact us page </a> <span style="display: initial;"> !  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Apart from this, you can continue to read more about our ceramic coating and clear bra, and paint correction options below.

This is not the case! We do so much rock chip prevention on C8 Corvettes, we are bound to do multiple Rapid Blue with .R and Jake Skull graphics! </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> We have several options when you have vinyl graphics and we are installing rock chip protection on your car. Something to understand about PPF and rock chip prevention on your 2023 C8 Corvette with graphics (or anyone with racing stripes) – clear bra/PPF is approximately 3x as thick as vinyl. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> So PPF does not conform to raised edges of vinyl without leaving a small air gap. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Sometimes, we can press the gap down, but there’s no promise that it will stay. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> 1/ Remove the graphic and replace it later. This eliminates all chances of air gap, makes the installation look as clean as possible – but leaves the vinyl exposed to rock chips. When talking about replacing vinyl after rock chip prevention on a 2023 C8 Corvette, the black vinyl on the hood is $495 from the dealership. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> 2/ Cut around the graphic by hand. This can typically be done pretty cleanly, but it IS still cut by hand. The benefit is, the graphic doesn’t need to be removed, costing you the $495 (some racing stripes can be upwards of $1500 from dealers). However, the vinyl is exposed and it’s possible to collect dirt in the gap between the PPF and vinyl. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> 3/ Go over the graphic with PPF. This protects the vinyl, but causes the air gap. Also, some graphics cannot be covered at all because they’re slightly textured, and also, matte or satin graphics will now be glossier. In this case, the owner actually liked the changed look, so this is the option he chose. Installing rock chip prevention on this 2023 C8 Corvette ensures their paint will remain pristine for years to come! PPF protects against most rock chips and scratches, and is warrantied for 12 years or more against yellowing, cracking, and fading. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: var(--e-global-typography-primary-font-weight);"> Book your rock chip prevention for your C8 Corvette service with us in Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights! </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Did you know, you can call OR text us at  </span> <a href="tell:254-55-4142" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> 254.550.4142 </a> <span style="display: initial;">  or  </span> <a href="https://hhceramiccoatings.com/contact-us" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> visit our contact us page </a> <span style="display: initial;"> !  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Apart from this, you can continue to read more about our ceramic coating and clear bra, and paint correction options below.

Its mid-engine layout positions the engine behind the driver, resulting in improved weight distribution and handling characteristics. The C8 Corvette retains the classic Corvette design elements, including a long hood, muscular fenders, and a distinctive rear end with quad taillights. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Engine and Performance: The C8 Corvette is powered by a 6.2-liter naturally aspirated V8 engine, known as the LT2. It produces 490 horsepower and 465 lb-ft of torque in the base model. With the available Z51 Performance Package, power output is increased to 495 horsepower. The engine is paired with an eight-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission, offering quick and precise shifts. The C8 Corvette can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in under 3 seconds, making it the quickest and most powerful base Corvette ever produced. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Driving Dynamics: The mid-engine layout of the C8 Corvette contributes to improved handling and balance. The repositioned engine enhances weight distribution, providing better traction and cornering capabilities.

The base model is known as the Corvette Stingray, while the Z51 Performance Package enhances the car’s handling capabilities. Chevrolet has also introduced higher-performance variants such as the Corvette Z06 and Corvette ZR1, which offer more power, aerodynamic enhancements, and track-focused features. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Pricing and Availability: The C8 Corvette represents a remarkable value for its performance and features, with a starting price lower than many other high-performance sports cars. However, pricing can vary based on options and trim levels.

Some of the paint required a full two-step correction, and some of the areas we were able to use a little extra work time to complete a one-step more aggressively, without leaving holograms behind. Holograms are common to see with more inexperienced shop, not used to working on black paint. The 2007 Porsche 911 ceramic coating and paint correction project ended with a three year, extremely hydrophobic ceramic coating on the painted surfaces, a two year ceramic coating on the wheel faces, and a one year ceramic coating on the windshield.

We receive so many deliveries here as a home business, that people delivering to the property see what we do and see the work we are putting out, and refer others to come see us. This C8 Corvette custom PPF/clear bra job was actually a little more challenging than you would typically expect, as the owner already had some custom Racing Sports Concepts carbon fiber pieces on the car that needed protecting, but couldn’t be easily removed. We are used to these custom projects, and we tackled the front lip in one piece (on the main portion), and then added additional C8 Corvette custom PPF on the winglets as well as the sideskirt winglets. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Of course, we also completed our standard track package in addition to the C8 Corvette custom PPF work we did on the RSC pieces. Our track package is a popular option, especially for lower-height sports cars, which tend to see more rock chips than the average commuter car. The track package includes hood, fenders, front bumper (on the C8 Corvette this also includes the carbon flash trim pieces up front), mirrors, A pillars, leading roof line, and rocker panels (into the vent area behind the doors). In this case, we also added the C8 Corvette RSC custom PPF on the front lip and parts of the sideskirts, something that is not typically part of our track package. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: var(--e-global-typography-primary-font-weight);"> Book your 2023 C8 Corvette Custom PPF and ceramic coating service with us in Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights! </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Did you know, you can call OR text us at  </span> <a href="tell:254-55-4142" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> 254.550.4142 </a> <span style="display: initial;">  or  </span> <a href="https://hhceramiccoatings.com/contact-us" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> visit our contact us </a> <a href="https://hhceramiccoatings.com/contact-us" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> page </a> <span style="display: initial;"> ! </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Apart from this, you can continue to read more about our ceramic coating and clear bra, and paint correction options below.

These packages typically include various carbon fiber parts and components that aim to improve the car’s aerodynamics, weight reduction, and visual appeal. Here are some common carbon fiber parts that may be included in C8 Corvette Racing Sports Concepts packages: </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Front Splitter: A carbon fiber front splitter is often added to enhance aerodynamics by redirecting airflow and providing additional downforce at the front of the car. This helps improve stability and grip during high-speed driving. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Side Skirts: Carbon fiber side skirts are designed to improve airflow along the sides of the vehicle, reducing turbulence and enhancing aerodynamic efficiency. They can also give the car a more aggressive appearance. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Rear Diffuser: A carbon fiber rear diffuser is typically installed beneath the rear bumper of the Corvette. It helps manage airflow exiting from under the car, reducing drag and potentially increasing downforce. Rear diffusers can improve stability and balance at high speeds. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Rear Spoiler/Wing: Carbon fiber rear spoilers or wings are added to increase downforce on the rear of the car, enhancing traction and stability. They can be designed in various shapes and sizes to provide the desired level of aerodynamic performance. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Engine Bay Covers: Carbon fiber engine bay covers are popular upgrades that replace the stock engine covers with lightweight carbon fiber versions. They enhance the visual appeal of the engine compartment while reducing weight. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Mirror Covers: Carbon fiber mirror covers can replace the stock mirror caps, providing a sporty and stylish appearance while reducing weight. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Interior Trim Pieces: In addition to exterior components, some C8 Corvette Racing Sports Concepts packages may include carbon fiber interior trim pieces. These can include carbon fiber accents for the dashboard, center console, door panels, and other areas, adding a touch of sportiness to the cabin. </span> </li> </ol> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Carbon fiber parts are favored in performance-oriented modifications due to their high strength-to-weight ratio. Carbon fiber is lighter than traditional materials like steel or aluminum, which can help improve the Corvette’s power-to-weight ratio and overall performance. Additionally, carbon fiber parts are known for their visual appeal, giving the C8 Corvette a more aggressive and race-inspired aesthetic. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> AFTERCARE INSTRUCTIONS AND PRODUCTS FOR YOUR 2023 C8 CORVETTE CUSTOM PPF <br/> </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="font-weight: bolder; display: initial;"> Car care products we love: </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Drying towel(s): Autofiber Dreadnought 20”x30” x1:  </span> </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Cd5Y9w" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Cd5Y9w </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Smaller drying towel (can also be used on glass) x2 (one for paint, one for wheels): Autofiber Dreadnought Jr. 16”x16” –  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3iazPbX" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3iazPbX </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Wash mitt: Autofiber Zero Cuff Wash Mitt x2 (one in black for wheels, one other color for paint):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3WYu3Jw" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WYu3Jw </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Auto detailing towels, general purpose (wiping off bird poop, quick wipe up, interior, etc): Autofiber Elite detailing towel:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3IeLiSo" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3IeLiSo </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Wheel drying/detailing microfiber towels, black: Autofiber Zero Edge:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Z0GJBe" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z0GJBe </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Quick detailer/glass cleaner/waterless wash/rinseless wash concentrate: American Detailer Garage Wipeout (can be diluted and lasts a very long time):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3WZkwlp" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WZkwlp </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Spray bottles for ADG Wipeout and other products:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Q3kxT5" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Q3kxT5 </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Buckets with grit guards x2 (one for wheels, one for paint):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3jxjnmq" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3jxjnmq </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Pre-treatment and wheel cleaner, American Detailer Garage F-Bomb diluted 10:1 (can be used 20:1 for interior):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3G1NV7w" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3G1NV7w </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> The best wheel cleaning tool we have ever used, the Autofiber Barrel blade (reaches the barrel, between the brake caliper, and narrow spokes):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Z0wnkK" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z0wnkK </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Foam cannon wash tools for auto detailing, the MTM Hydro PF22.2 has a wide base to prevent tipping:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3WE591K" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WE591K </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> American Detailer Garage Fuzion foaming hybrid wash (for use in foam cannon, use 2+ ounces per fill):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Z3MApg" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z3MApg </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Microfiber detergent to extend the life of your Autofiber microfiber and other towels:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3jBxp6B" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3jBxp6B </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Optional but useful for trucks and SUVs: Autofiber Mitt on a Stick Pro.  </span> <a href="https://www.autofiber.com/products/mitt-on-a-stick-pro-adjustable-wash-tool-with-360-locking-head-long-pole-35-to-83?variant=40748237816001" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://www.autofiber.com/products/mitt-on-a-stick-pro-adjustable-wash-tool-with-360-locking-head-long-pole-35-to-83?variant=40748237816001 </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Our most favorite detailing tool we have is our Adam’s Spot-Free Water system.

This BMW m850i needed 72″ PPF on the large, sweeping hood, which is prone to rock chips. Clear bra/PPF will protect against MOST rock chips and scratches, especially while commuting back and forth to work through all of the Central Texas construction areas! We always recommend bringing your car to us as soon as possible, before the highway does its damage! <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> While white is an easier color from some perspectives when installing clear bra/PPF, in other aspects it presents challenges. As no PPF installation is fully debris or defect-free, the white shows every minor piece of debris. Fortunately, we minimize debris at Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings, just like we did on this 2020 BMW m850i PPF install. We use a plethora of advanced methods to minimize debris, including, but not limited to – air purifiers, an extremely clean installation bay, stringent and redundant filter systems, and most importantly – advanced-level training. After we completed this clear bra installation, we installed a five year ceramic coating on the painted surfaces and on the 2020 BMW m850i’s new PPF. We applied a one year ceramic coating to the windshield and a two year ceramic coating to the wheel faces, which are standard practices with all of our elite-level ceramic coating packages. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="font-weight: var(--e-global-typography-primary-font-weight); display: unset;"> Book your 2020 BMW m850i PPF and ceramic coating service with us in Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights! </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Did you know, you can call OR text us at  </span> <a href="tell:254-55-4142" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> 254.550.4142 </a> <span style="display: initial;">  or  </span> <a href="https://hhceramiccoatings.com/contact-us" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> visit our contact us page </a> <span style="display: initial;"> !  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Apart from this, you can continue to read more about our ceramic coating and clear bra, and paint correction options below.

Why do we mention GM black? General Motors (GM) black is notorious in the auto detailing community, not just for the 2020 Camaro paint correction aspect, but just in general. Black GM paint tends to be softer, making final correction steps more difficult to complete. However, this 2020 Camaro Paint Correction was fine for our 15+ years of paint correction experience. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> This 2020 Camaro had some significant swirling requiring paint correction. At a certain point, on black cars especially, the swirls will appear white to our naked eye. When enough of these swirls are present, the paint will almost appear gray when contrasted with polished paint next to it. This is where we come into the rescue to restore the black, shiny gloss to the entire car. After we completed our 2020 Chevy Camaro paint correction, we then applied ceramic coating on the paint, wheels, and windshield. Ceramic coating does not protect against rock chips or scratches like PPF/clear bra, but it makes the car significantly easier to clean – bug guts, bird poop, and dirt all come off the car easier. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: var(--e-global-typography-primary-font-weight);"> Book your 2020 Chevy Camaro paint correction and ceramic coating service with us in Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights! </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Did you know, you can call OR text us at 254.550.4142 or visit our contact us page!  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Apart from this, you can continue to read more about our ceramic coating and clear bra, and paint correction options below.

Did you know that bug guts, like bird poop, are acidic and can permanently etch a painted surface? With ceramic coating, it can still etch if left unattended, especially in the Central Texas sun during the summer – BUT – they are also easily removed. At Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings, we firmly believe that if we help make your 2022 Dodge Charger (or whatever your car may be!) easy to clean, you (and we) will be more likely to clean it. Everyone is busy, and many of us use our cars as daily drivers. Being able to easily remove contaminants means they are less likely to stay on the car long-term. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> This 2022 Dodge Charger was no different, and so we installed ceramic coating on the painted surfaces, windshield (think of Rain X on steroids!), and wheel faces. The great thing about applying a ceramic coating to wheel faces (included in all of our major ceramic coating packages) is it also makes quick work of brake dust. That’s not just important for cleaning; brake dust let to sit and dwell can begin pitting and adhering to the wheel surface, causing permanent damage. Some of these new muscle cars that are incredibly heavy, like the 2022 Dodge Charger, generate a lot of brake dust. It’s not just heavy muscle cars, it’s many new cars. Brake dust is comprised of iron and metal particles and can embed and rust on your wheel. You will still get brake dust with ceramic coating, but it will be easier to clean! <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="font-weight: var(--e-global-typography-primary-font-weight); display: unset;"> Book your 2022 Dodge Charger ceramic coating service with us in Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights! </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Did you know, you can call OR text us at 254.550.4142 or visit our contact us page!  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Apart from this, you can continue to read more about our ceramic coating and clear bra, and paint correction options below.

In this case, the 2023 BMW M4 Competition clear bra job was for a track package, which includes hood, fenders, mirrors, bumper, partial A pillar and partial roof line. This car is a perfect example of why PPF is needed immediately. Our client bought this car nearly new with only about 3000 miles, but it already had accumulated quite a bit of rock chips, and we installed PPF on the 2023 BMW M4 Competition to “stop the bleeding.” <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> PPF, otherwise known as clear bra or paint protection film, will protect this 2023 BMW M4 Competition from most rock chips and scratches in the areas it is covered. It is possible, in some cases, for the rocks to penetrate the film, but typically, it will stop just about everything from the daily course of driving. This 2023 BMW M4 Competition clear bra project also enhances the paint’s shine and provides UV protection from the Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights sun! <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: var(--e-global-typography-primary-font-weight);"> Book your 2023 BMW M4 Competition clear bra/ ceramic coating service with us in Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights! </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Did you know, you can call OR text us at 254.550.4142 or visit our contact us page!  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Apart from this, you can continue to read more about our ceramic coating and clear bra, and paint correction options below.

Here are some key features and specifications of the BMW M4 Competition: </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Engine and Performance: The M4 Competition is equipped with a powerful 3.0-liter inline-six engine with M TwinPower Turbo technology. In recent models, this engine produces around 503 horsepower and 479 lb-ft of torque. It is paired with an eight-speed M Steptronic automatic transmission or an optional six-speed manual transmission. The M4 Competition boasts impressive acceleration and can reach 0 to 60 mph in just around 3.8 seconds. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Design and Styling: The M4 Competition exhibits a bold and aggressive design that distinguishes it from the standard BMW 4 Series models. It features large air intakes, a sculpted hood, aerodynamic elements, flared fenders, quad exhaust pipes, and an iconic double-kidney grille specific to M models. The M4 Competition has a sporty and muscular stance, conveying its performance-oriented nature. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Performance Features: The M4 Competition comes with various performance-enhancing features. These may include an adaptive M suspension, an electronically controlled M Sport rear differential, an M Drive system with customizable driving modes, and M Compound brakes for excellent stopping power. Optional features like carbon-ceramic brakes and an M Carbon exterior package are also available. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Interior and Technology: Inside, the M4 Competition offers a driver-focused cockpit with high-quality materials and advanced technology. It features supportive sport seats, an M-specific instrument cluster, an M Sport steering wheel, and carbon fiber or aluminum trim accents. The infotainment system includes a large touchscreen display, BMW’s iDrive interface, smartphone integration, navigation, and a premium audio system. Advanced driver assistance systems and safety features are also present. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> M4 Competition Packages: BMW offers various packages to further enhance the M4 Competition’s performance and customization options. For example, the Competition Package includes additional engine tuning, chassis enhancements, and exclusive design elements. Other packages may offer carbon-fiber components, upgraded suspension, exhaust systems, and more. </span> </li> </ol> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Applying a clear bra, also known as paint protection film (PPF), to a BMW M4 Competition can provide several benefits: </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Protection against rock chips and scratches: The clear bra acts as a sacrificial layer that absorbs impacts from road debris, preventing them from directly hitting and damaging the vehicle’s paint. This helps to protect the M4 Competition’s front end, which is prone to rock chips and scratches during daily driving or on the track. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Preserving the paint’s finish: The M4 Competition often features a high-quality paint job with specialized finishes like metallic or matte. Applying a clear bra helps to preserve the paint’s original finish by shielding it from fading, discoloration, and damage caused by UV rays, bird droppings, tree sap, and other environmental contaminants. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Easy maintenance and cleaning: Clear bra has self-healing properties, meaning that minor scratches and swirl marks on the film can disappear over time with heat or light. This makes maintenance and cleaning easier, as the film is resistant to stains and can be washed and detailed without worrying about damaging the paint. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Retaining the vehicle’s resale value: By protecting the M4 Competition’s paint from chips, scratches, and other damages, the clear bra helps maintain its overall appearance and condition. This can be beneficial when it comes time to sell or trade in the vehicle, as a well-maintained paint job can contribute to a higher resale value. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Invisible protection: Quality clear bra installations are virtually invisible when properly applied. This means that the appearance of the M4 Competition remains unaffected, allowing the vehicle’s design, color, and body lines to shine through without any noticeable changes. </span> </li> </ol> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> It’s important to note that the effectiveness of a clear bra largely depends on the quality of the film itself and the installation process. It’s recommended to seek professional installation from experienced technicians who specialize in paint protection film to ensure the best results </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> AFTERCARE INSTRUCTIONS AND PRODUCTS FOR YOUR 2023 BMW M4 Competition CLEAR BRA/CERAMIC COATING <br/> </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="font-weight: bolder; display: initial;"> Car care products we love: </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Drying towel(s): Autofiber Dreadnought 20”x30” x1:  </span> </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Cd5Y9w" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Cd5Y9w </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Smaller drying towel (can also be used on glass) x2 (one for paint, one for wheels): Autofiber Dreadnought Jr. 16”x16” –  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3iazPbX" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3iazPbX </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Wash mitt: Autofiber Zero Cuff Wash Mitt x2 (one in black for wheels, one other color for paint):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3WYu3Jw" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WYu3Jw </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Auto detailing towels, general purpose (wiping off bird poop, quick wipe up, interior, etc): Autofiber Elite detailing towel:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3IeLiSo" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3IeLiSo </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Wheel drying/detailing microfiber towels, black: Autofiber Zero Edge:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Z0GJBe" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z0GJBe </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Quick detailer/glass cleaner/waterless wash/rinseless wash concentrate: American Detailer Garage Wipeout (can be diluted and lasts a very long time):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3WZkwlp" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WZkwlp </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Spray bottles for ADG Wipeout and other products:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Q3kxT5" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Q3kxT5 </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Buckets with grit guards x2 (one for wheels, one for paint):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3jxjnmq" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3jxjnmq </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Pre-treatment and wheel cleaner, American Detailer Garage F-Bomb diluted 10:1 (can be used 20:1 for interior):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3G1NV7w" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3G1NV7w </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> The best wheel cleaning tool we have ever used, the Autofiber Barrel blade (reaches the barrel, between the brake caliper, and narrow spokes):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Z0wnkK" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z0wnkK </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Foam cannon wash tools for auto detailing, the MTM Hydro PF22.2 has a wide base to prevent tipping:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3WE591K" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WE591K </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> American Detailer Garage Fuzion foaming hybrid wash (for use in foam cannon, use 2+ ounces per fill):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Z3MApg" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z3MApg </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Microfiber detergent to extend the life of your Autofiber microfiber and other towels:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3jBxp6B" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3jBxp6B </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Optional but useful for trucks and SUVs: Autofiber Mitt on a Stick Pro.  </span> <a href="https://www.autofiber.com/products/mitt-on-a-stick-pro-adjustable-wash-tool-with-360-locking-head-long-pole-35-to-83?variant=40748237816001" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://www.autofiber.com/products/mitt-on-a-stick-pro-adjustable-wash-tool-with-360-locking-head-long-pole-35-to-83?variant=40748237816001 </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Our most favorite detailing tool we have is our Adam’s Spot-Free Water system.

They came right back to us for us to shine up their new 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee with ceramic coating just like we did for their pickup truck. We love when clients bring us vehicles for PPF and ceramic coatings from the dealer because it makes cleaning easier from the beginning. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> This ensures it is more difficult for brake dust to stick to the wheels from the get-go, so this 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee with ceramic coating will likely never have brake dust embedded and rusting out their wheels. Brake dust, bug guts, bird poop, water spots, and more can still cause issues for the paint on a ceramic-coated (or PPF’d) 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee (or any of the vehicles we work on). However, all of these contaminants are so much easier to remove, and therefore unlikely to stay on long enough to etch the paint! In addition to the 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee ceramic coating on the exterior, we also fully ceramic coated the interior as well, which will prevent stains and make the interior easier to clean! </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Enjoy the video of this 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee ceramic coating process and stay tuned for pictures! <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="font-weight: var(--e-global-typography-primary-font-weight); display: unset;"> Book your 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee ceramic coating service with us in Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights! </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Did you know, you can call OR text us at 254.550.4142 or visit our contact us page!  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Apart from this, you can continue to read more about our ceramic coating and clear bra, and paint correction options below.

Here are some general features and specifications of the Grand Cherokee: </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <ul> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Engine options: The Grand Cherokee typically offers a range of engine options to suit different preferences and performance requirements. These options may include V6 and V8 engines, providing varying levels of power and efficiency. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Four-wheel drive capability: The Grand Cherokee is renowned for its off-road capabilities. It often comes equipped with advanced four-wheel drive systems, such as Jeep’s Quadra-Drive II system, which provides enhanced traction and stability in challenging terrain. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Interior: The Grand Cherokee provides a comfortable and well-appointed cabin with seating for up to five passengers. It offers a range of features, including premium materials, advanced infotainment systems, smartphone integration, and available options like panoramic sunroof, heated and ventilated seats, and high-end audio systems. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Safety features: Jeep prioritizes safety in its vehicles, and the Grand Cherokee typically includes a suite of safety technologies. These may include features like forward collision warning, blind-spot monitoring, lane departure warning, adaptive cruise control, and automatic emergency braking. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Towing capacity: The Grand Cherokee is often capable of towing significant loads. Depending on the engine and configuration, it can tow from around 6,200 pounds to over 7,200 pounds, allowing you to transport trailers, boats, or other heavy loads. </span> </li> </ul> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Ceramic coating is a protective treatment applied to the exterior surfaces of a vehicle, including the paintwork.  </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Enhanced paint protection: Ceramic coating forms a durable and transparent layer over the vehicle’s paint, offering protection against various environmental contaminants. It helps to prevent damage from UV rays, oxidation, bird droppings, tree sap, road salt, and other harmful substances, reducing the risk of paint fading, etching, or corrosion. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Increased scratch resistance: The ceramic coating provides an additional layer of hardness to the vehicle’s surface, making it more resistant to light scratches and swirl marks caused by washing or daily use. While it won’t make your vehicle completely scratch-proof, it can minimize the appearance of minor imperfections. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Easier maintenance: The hydrophobic properties of ceramic coating make the surface more resistant to dirt, water, and grime. This means that your vehicle will stay cleaner for longer, and when it does get dirty, it will be easier to clean. The slick surface also helps to prevent contaminants from bonding strongly to the paint, allowing for easier removal. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Enhanced gloss and appearance: Ceramic coating can enhance the shine and depth of the vehicle’s paint, giving it a glossy and reflective finish. It can make the colors appear more vibrant and provide a showroom-like appearance, enhancing the overall aesthetics of your Jeep Grand Cherokee. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Long-lasting protection: Unlike traditional wax or sealant, ceramic coating is designed to be long-lasting, providing protection for several years. It bonds with the paint surface, forming a durable barrier that can withstand the rigors of daily driving, weather conditions, and regular washing. </span> </li> </ol> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> It’s important to note that while ceramic coating offers numerous benefits, it is not a substitute for regular maintenance or careful driving. Proper washing techniques and regular upkeep are still necessary to keep your vehicle in its best condition. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> AFTERCARE INSTRUCTIONS AND PRODUCTS FOR YOUR 2023 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE CERAMIC COATING <br/> </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="font-weight: bolder; display: initial;"> Car care products we love: </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Drying towel(s): Autofiber Dreadnought 20”x30” x1:  </span> </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Cd5Y9w" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Cd5Y9w </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Smaller drying towel (can also be used on glass) x2 (one for paint, one for wheels): Autofiber Dreadnought Jr. 16”x16” –  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3iazPbX" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3iazPbX </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Wash mitt: Autofiber Zero Cuff Wash Mitt x2 (one in black for wheels, one other color for paint):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3WYu3Jw" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WYu3Jw </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Auto detailing towels, general purpose (wiping off bird poop, quick wipe up, interior, etc): Autofiber Elite detailing towel:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3IeLiSo" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3IeLiSo </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Wheel drying/detailing microfiber towels, black: Autofiber Zero Edge:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Z0GJBe" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z0GJBe </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Quick detailer/glass cleaner/waterless wash/rinseless wash concentrate: American Detailer Garage Wipeout (can be diluted and lasts a very long time):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3WZkwlp" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WZkwlp </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Spray bottles for ADG Wipeout and other products:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Q3kxT5" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Q3kxT5 </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Buckets with grit guards x2 (one for wheels, one for paint):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3jxjnmq" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3jxjnmq </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Pre-treatment and wheel cleaner, American Detailer Garage F-Bomb diluted 10:1 (can be used 20:1 for interior):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3G1NV7w" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3G1NV7w </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> The best wheel cleaning tool we have ever used, the Autofiber Barrel blade (reaches the barrel, between the brake caliper, and narrow spokes):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Z0wnkK" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z0wnkK </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Foam cannon wash tools for auto detailing, the MTM Hydro PF22.2 has a wide base to prevent tipping:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3WE591K" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WE591K </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> American Detailer Garage Fuzion foaming hybrid wash (for use in foam cannon, use 2+ ounces per fill):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Z3MApg" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z3MApg </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Microfiber detergent to extend the life of your Autofiber microfiber and other towels:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3jBxp6B" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3jBxp6B </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Optional but useful for trucks and SUVs: Autofiber Mitt on a Stick Pro.  </span> <a href="https://www.autofiber.com/products/mitt-on-a-stick-pro-adjustable-wash-tool-with-360-locking-head-long-pole-35-to-83?variant=40748237816001" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://www.autofiber.com/products/mitt-on-a-stick-pro-adjustable-wash-tool-with-360-locking-head-long-pole-35-to-83?variant=40748237816001 </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Our most favorite detailing tool we have is our Adam’s Spot-Free Water system.

This brand-new car nearly came to us straight from the dealership (which is the best way to do it) before it got peppered by rock chips from the Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights area construction. We also have a lot of clients that get damage driving to and from Austin, which is a pretty popular destination. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> The best bet is always to get your brand new vehicle, in this case a 2023 Mercedes CLA250 Clear Bra, PPF and ceramic right away. We always tell clients that we don’t say that because we want the money – believe it or not, we actually make LESS money if you wait! Yep, you read that right. If they had waited to bring in their 2023 Mercedes CLA250, eventually, it gets TOO MANY rock chips and it is no longer a candidate for PPF/clear bra! Vehicles with excessive rock chips will show a bunch of white raised specs in the paint because the film is too thick to conform to the tiny chip. This goes for large, obvious chips or tiny little chips you can’t see from a few feet away. This 2023 Mercedes CLA250 Clear Bra job was a gorgeous gray/silver that looked amazing in our shop at Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings, and thanks to ceramic coating and PPF, will stay looking that way going forward! <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: var(--e-global-typography-primary-font-weight);"> Book your 2023 Mercedes CLA250 clear bra / ceramic coating service with us in Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights! </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Did you know, you can call OR text us at 254.550.4142 or visit our contact us page!  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Apart from this, you can continue to read more about our ceramic coating and clear bra, and paint correction options below.

Moreover, there are minimal differences between major film manufacturers like Xpel, SunTek, Eastman, Llumar, 3M, STEK clear bra, Flexishield, Global, Legend, and more. Importantly, the key takeaway is that the primary differences are in the properties of the adhesive, which installers have to deal with, but generally don’t affect anything the client sees. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="font-weight: var(--e-global-typography-primary-font-weight); display: initial;"> is clear bra/paint protection film/PPF the same as xpel film? </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Of course, our clients at HHCC frequently ask about Xpel clear bra/paint protection film.

In gorgeous Ford Performance Blue, this 2019 Ford Mustang GT350 had factory racing stripes that had some damage, and so we replaced them for the client so that we could properly install PPF. The benefit of removing racing stripes or vinyl prior to installing PPF, is that PPF is so thick (three times as thick as vinyl), and so it doesn’t conform to the ridges/edges as well as you might like. This leaves an air channel around the vinyl. On light vehicles, it’s not quite as noticeable as with darker vehicles, and it definitely would have been noticeable here. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> For this 2019 Ford Mustang Shelby GT350 project we once again used Legend PPF, which carries a 12 year warranty. We utilized a 72″ non-standard size roll for this hood to minimize over-stretching (which would thin out the film), removed the hood scoop vent, and custom-cut an opening with no seams or relief cuts for the cleanest install. Not only would using a 60″ roll create a decent amount of stretching, potentially thinning out the film ever-so-slightly, it would create more tension in the hood scoop area, potentially leading to relief cuts or longer-term issues down the line with film lifting. We should have no such issue with this, using the 72″ roll. At Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings, we believe in stocking all sizes of film, and therefore, every piece cut for your vehicle is the right size with no compromise, even at all! <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="font-weight: var(--e-global-typography-primary-font-weight); display: unset;"> Book your 2019 Shelby GT350 PPF/ ceramic coating service with us in Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights! </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Did you know, you can call OR text us at 254.550.4142 or visit our contact us page!  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Apart from this, you can continue to read more about our ceramic coating and clear bra, and paint correction options below.

Moreover, there are minimal differences between major film manufacturers like Xpel, SunTek, Eastman, Llumar, 3M, STEK clear bra, Flexishield, Global, Legend, and more.

The 2022 Tesla Model Y white vegan leather tends to get blue jeans and other transfer on it, so keeping it clean and ceramic coated is essential. Before this annual checkup, this 2022 Tesla Model Y clocked about 30k miles in the last year, and the clear bra/PPF we installed last year is holding up well. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> In addition to his 2022 Tesla Model Y annual checkup, we had also ceramic coated his wife’s Kia Telluride, and so to say he’s a believer in the process is an understatement! First we conducted an auto detailing on this car to ensure the surfaces are clean and ready for ceramic coating. The interior ceramic coating was the client’s primary concern, and so we removed some existing minor stains and scuffs from the white vegan leather, and then re-applied ceramic coating! <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: var(--e-global-typography-primary-font-weight);"> Book your 2022 Tesla Model Y annual checkup ceramic coating service with us in Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights! </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Did you know, you can call OR text us at 254.550.4142 or visit our contact us page!  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Apart from this, you can continue to read more about our ceramic coating and clear bra, and paint correction options below.

Did you know that rock chips gradually damage the paint over time, making the installation of clear bra/PPF/paint protection film more difficult? Due to the fact that PPF is almost 3x as thick as vinyl, PPF does not conform to rock chips in the same manner as you would expect. That means rock chips with PPF over them will have an air gap, meaning a whitish/grayish area or bubble of film stands out more than factory paint. Additionally, the more miles you put on the car, the more likely debris can get into the film during installation, which wasn’t an issue for this 2023 BMW 330i. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> We take every precaution to eliminate debris under our installations, from our misting system, clothes we wear, air filtration systems, and, as anyone that has been here can attest – our spotless, state-of-the-art facility. However, some debris (during day-to-day driving) can lodge itself in places that can only be fully eliminated by disassembling the car. For all these reasons, it’s best to get us your car (like this client did with her 2023 BMW 330i) asap!! Our clear bra is warrantied for 12 years against yellowing, cracking, and fading, and will stop MOST rock chips and debris (and scratches). The ceramic coating will make it SO much easier to clean up – no easy feat with white vehicles! <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: var(--e-global-typography-primary-font-weight);"> Book your 2023 BMW 330i clear bra/PPF/ceramic coating service with us in Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights! </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Did you know, you can call OR text us at 254.550.4142 or visit our contact us page!  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Apart from this, you can continue to read more about our ceramic coating and clear bra, and paint correction options below.

That definitely brings in STEK dynoDAMASCUS PPF. STEK is a PPF company that does a lot of gloss products, but they are known within the industry for having the most comprehensive set of fashion films. You might remember that we have STEK carbon fiber pattern PPF on our 2019 BMW i8 Roadster. In this case, we were blown away by the STEK dynoDAMASCUS on this 2019 Chevy Camaro ZL1! <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> While we also polished (paint correction) and ceramic coated this 2019 Chevy Camaro ZL1, the highlight is definitely the special patterned hood in STEK Damascus PPF. These installations are a little trickier than standard installations. First of all, we need to do a good job with edges of the film, because any gaps in the pattern will show color or non-patterned areas. There tends to be a bit more disassembly and more wasted material as we go out extra on the edges because it’s easier to trim back than come up short. Plus, fashion and matte films have a weaker adhesive than regular PPF, which means the installations are more deliberate to ensure the film is locked in before moving on to the next area.

If you have seen our other videos, you know that automatic car washes will destroy your cars’ paint. Years of automatic car washes will cause your car’s paint to oxidize, peel, and fail as the car wash erodes the UV protection on the paint. This causes the paint to dry out. Premature failure from car washes is a result of two major factors – harsh chemicals used (even at touchless car washes), and dirty brushes scrubbing or abrading the paint. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Fortunately, we can fix paint before it is too late. We can polish the paint to remove swirls and enhance the shine, and then install a ceramic coating over top to add back some UV protection while making it easy to clean and remove things like bird poop, sap, and bug guts. Fortunately, our client realized this before it was too late and brought it to us. Sometimes, if vehicles continuously go through car washes, black cars can almost appear gray to the naked eye. Fortunately, we never got to this point here! We did, however, conduct a one step paint correction and installed a ceramic coating for the client to restore and maintain gloss, and easy cleanup. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="font-weight: var(--e-global-typography-primary-font-weight); display: unset;"> Book your 2023 Cadillac CT4 ceramic coating service with us in Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights! </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Did you know, you can call OR text us at 254.550.4142 or visit our contact us page!  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Apart from this, you can continue to read more about our ceramic coating and clear bra, and paint correction options below.

Moreover, there are minimal differences between major film manufacturers like Xpel, SunTek, Eastman, Llumar, 3M, STEK clear bra, Flexishield, Global, Legend, and more. Importantly, the key takeaway is that the primary differences are in the properties of the adhesive, which installers have to deal with, but generally don’t affect anything the client sees. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: var(--e-global-typography-primary-font-weight);"> is clear bra/paint protection film/PPF the same as xpel film? </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Of course, our clients at HHCC frequently ask about Xpel clear bra/paint protection film.

Due to the fact that he was planning to be gone for awhile, we also ceramic coated the vehicle to make it easy to clean while he was overseas. This was quite the interesting color combination on this 2021 Jeep Gladiator, made to look in the same fashion as the Jurassic Park vehicles. You might recall the scene where the T Rex had stopped them in the original movie, although they were obviously not 2021 Jeep Gladiators. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> In addition to the deep clean, as we mentioned, we installed ceramic coating on this 2021 Jeep Gladiator after auto detailing.

Ceramic coating will deepen the color of a vehicle, just like it did to this 2020 Tesla Model Y. Importantly, for this Tesla Model Y vinyl wrap, it will significantly increase the wrap’s life. Here in Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights, Tesla vinyl wraps last less time than they might in other parts of the country. The excessive sun can wear out the wrap and damage it, shortening its lifespan. A great vinyl wrap might still only last a few years here. However, ceramic coating and other protective coatings have UV protection in the formula. Since the UV rays are what damages the Tesla vinyl wraps, it’s helpful to get a ceramic or protective coating installed immediately. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Because of the short lifespan of Tesla vinyl wraps, we don’t install vinyl wrap here at Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings. We prefer color paint protection film/PPF/clear bra over vinyl wrap. However, we ceramic coat many vehicles that have been vinyl wrapped for this exact reason. If you are interested in changing the color of your Tesla or another vehicle with vinyl wrap, and you plan to keep it for a long time, consider fashion film PPF/paint protection film/clear bra. PPF warranties are typically 8 to 12 years against yellowing, cracking, or fading. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="font-weight: var(--e-global-typography-primary-font-weight); display: unset;"> Book your 2020 Tesla Model Y ceramic coating service with us in Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights! </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Did you know, you can call OR text us at  </span> <a href="tell:254-55-4142" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> 254.550.4142 </a> <span style="display: initial;">  or  </span> <a href="https://hhceramiccoatings.com/contact-us" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> visit our contact us page </a> <span style="display: initial;"> !  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Apart from this, you can continue to read more about our ceramic coating and clear bra, and paint correction options below.

Look at this crazy blue! The official color is called Seiran Blue, and this 2023 Nissan Z also has a matching blue interior! Coupled with the black accent pieces, it’s a real looker! Because she intends to keep this until the wheels fall off, she decided to get a track package clear bra/PPF, 10-year ceramic coating, interior ceramic coating, and wheels-off ceramic coating. We also conducted some paint correction on trouble areas on this 2023 Nissan Z. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Our Legend PPF carries a 12-year warranty, and will protect this 2023 Nissan Z against rock chips and scratches (her older 350Z had a LOT of rock chips in the black paint). The System X MAX ten-year ceramic coating makes the entire Seiran Blue paint feel dripping wet, making bug guts, road grime, dirt, and bird droppings much easier to clean up! This was the first 2023 Nissan Z we have seen in person, having seen mainly the Yellow online (and having yet to be a fan). I think you tend to see the Nissan Z in yellow, but this blue is just an ANIMAL.

Moreover, there are minimal differences between major film manufacturers like Xpel, SunTek, Eastman, Llumar, 3M, STEK clear bra, Flexishield, Global, Legend, and more. Importantly, the key takeaway is that the primary differences are in the properties of the adhesive, which installers have to deal with, but generally don’t affect anything the client sees. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: var(--e-global-typography-primary-font-weight);"> is clear bra/paint protection film/PPF the same as xpel film? </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Of course, our clients at HHCC frequently ask about Xpel clear bra/paint protection film.

Perfect, also, because it’s clearly become dated. Historically, Nissan’s sports car has sported an alphanumeric name, such as the outgoing 370Z model and the original  </span> <a href="https://www.caranddriver.com/features/g15377615/my-fair-lady-a-visual-history-of-the-nissan-z-car/?slide=2" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> 240Z </a> <span style="display: initial;">  from 1969, but this generation will be called Z. The 2023 Z is powered by a 400-hp twin-turbocharged V-6 engine driving the rear wheels through a six-speed manual or a nine-speed automatic. We’re impressed with the Z’s playful handling and zippy acceleration and we were delighted to find that it’s overall more refined than the car it replaces. Mercifully, the Z also receives a technology update with new touchscreen infotainment, a reconfigurable digital gauge display, and a host of new driver-assistance features. Whereas the last generation 370Z went up against more affordable sports cars such as the  </span> <a href="https://www.caranddriver.com/mazda/mx-5-miata" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> Mazda MX-5 Miata </a> <span style="display: initial;">  and the  </span> <a href="https://www.caranddriver.com/toyota/86-2020" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> Toyota 86 </a> <span style="display: initial;">  in price and performance, this next-generation car moves slightly up-market to put the Supra in its crosshairs. </span> </p> <p> <a href="https://www.caranddriver.com/features/g15377615/my-fair-lady-a-visual-history-of-the-nissan-z-car/" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> Nissan’s iconic Z-car </a> <span style="display: initial;">  is all-new for 2023. Previewed by the Z Proto concept car, the new Z draws design inspiration from past models but gives us a glimpse into the future with updated technology and a much-needed interior modernization. The new Z goes on sale in the  </span> <a href="https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a39817134/2023-nissan-z-release-date-delay/" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> summer 2022 </a> <span style="display: initial;">  as a hardtop coupe but  </span> <a href="https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a27343442/nissan-370z-roadster-discontinued-2020/" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> a convertible version </a> <span style="display: initial;">  could follow later. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Although its base price is higher than the  </span> <a href="https://www.caranddriver.com/reviews/a21649051/2019-nissan-370z-manual-test-review/" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> outgoing 370Z’s </a> <span style="display: initial;"> , the new Z still represents a bargain compared to key rivals such as the Supra and the  </span> <a href="https://www.caranddriver.com/audi/tt-tts" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> Audi TT </a> <span style="display: initial;"> . To justify its higher price tag, the Z ups the ante with more luxury features and more desirable styling. We’d go with the mid-range Z Performance trim, which adds a sportier suspension tune, a limited-slip differential, upgraded brakes, 19-inch wheels with summer tires, and power-adjustable seats with faux-suede upholstery. </span> </p> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Engine, Transmission, and Performance <br/> </span> </h2> </div> <div style="" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: unset;"> Like its beastly brother, the  </span> <a href="https://www.caranddriver.com/nissan/gt-r" target="_blank" style="display: unset;"> Nissan GT-R </a> <span style="display: unset;"> , the Z is powered by a twin-turbocharged V-6. But, instead of the fire-breathing 565-hp 3.8-liter under the GT-R hood, the Z gets a 400-hp 3.0-liter mill from the  </span> <a href="https://www.caranddriver.com/infiniti/q60-red-sport-400" target="_blank" style="display: unset;"> Infiniti Q60 Red Sport 400 </a> <span style="display: unset;">  paired to either a six-speed manual or a nine-speed automatic. While all-wheel drive is available in the Infiniti, Nissan is sticking with rear-wheel drive exclusively for the Z.

The cornering grip is plentiful so long as you’re not driving too close to the Z’s limit. Push it hard, though, and the suspension’s tuning reveals itself to be not quite up to the task. Its compliance provides good comfort when commuting, but rival sports cars offer sharper reflexes. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> AFTERCARE INSTRUCTIONS AND PRODUCTS FOR MERCEDES SL550 CERAMIC COATING <br/> </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="font-weight: bolder; display: initial;"> Car care products we love: </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Drying towel(s): Autofiber Dreadnought 20”x30” x1:  </span> </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Cd5Y9w" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Cd5Y9w </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Smaller drying towel (can also be used on glass) x2 (one for paint, one for wheels): Autofiber Dreadnought Jr. 16”x16” –  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3iazPbX" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3iazPbX </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Wash mitt: Autofiber Zero Cuff Wash Mitt x2 (one in black for wheels, one other color for paint):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3WYu3Jw" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WYu3Jw </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Auto detailing towels, general purpose (wiping off bird poop, quick wipe up, interior, etc): Autofiber Elite detailing towel:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3IeLiSo" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3IeLiSo </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Wheel drying/detailing microfiber towels, black: Autofiber Zero Edge:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Z0GJBe" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z0GJBe </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Quick detailer/glass cleaner/waterless wash/rinseless wash concentrate: American Detailer Garage Wipeout (can be diluted and lasts a very long time):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3WZkwlp" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WZkwlp </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Spray bottles for ADG Wipeout and other products:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Q3kxT5" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Q3kxT5 </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Buckets with grit guards x2 (one for wheels, one for paint):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3jxjnmq" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3jxjnmq </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Pre-treatment and wheel cleaner, American Detailer Garage F-Bomb diluted 10:1 (can be used 20:1 for interior):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3G1NV7w" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3G1NV7w </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> The best wheel cleaning tool we have ever used, the Autofiber Barrel blade (reaches the barrel, between the brake caliper, and narrow spokes):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Z0wnkK" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z0wnkK </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Foam cannon wash tools for auto detailing, the MTM Hydro PF22.2 has a wide base to prevent tipping:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3WE591K" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WE591K </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> American Detailer Garage Fuzion foaming hybrid wash (for use in foam cannon, use 2+ ounces per fill):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Z3MApg" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z3MApg </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Microfiber detergent to extend the life of your Autofiber microfiber and other towels:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3jBxp6B" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3jBxp6B </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Optional but useful for trucks and SUVs: Autofiber Mitt on a Stick Pro.  </span> <a href="https://www.autofiber.com/products/mitt-on-a-stick-pro-adjustable-wash-tool-with-360-locking-head-long-pole-35-to-83?variant=40748237816001" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://www.autofiber.com/products/mitt-on-a-stick-pro-adjustable-wash-tool-with-360-locking-head-long-pole-35-to-83?variant=40748237816001 </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Our most favorite detailing tool we have is our Adam’s Spot-Free Water system.

This is not the first 2023 Ford F150 Lightning we have done, we completed a black one a little while ago with the same type ceramic coating. We love ceramic coating these 2023 Ford F150 Lightnings because they tend to attract bug guts on the large flat plastic grille and light bar on the front, and ceramic coating makes that so much easier to clean. Of course, it does much more than make bug guts easier to clean – it makes dirt, road grime, bird poop, and more easier to clean! <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> We have been seeing more and more fully electric vehicles like Teslas, and these 2023 Ford F150 Lightnings.

The worst part about the 2023 Ford F150 Lightning (Maroon), as a sports car fan, is that these fully electric vehicles such as the Teslas, Rivians, and F150 Lightnings are all so fast, leaving many sports cars in the dust! <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: var(--e-global-typography-primary-font-weight);"> Book your 2023 Ford F150 ceramic coating service with us in Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights! </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Did you know, you can call OR text us at 254.550.4142 or visit our contact us page!  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Apart from this, you can continue to read more about our ceramic coating and clear bra, and paint correction options below.

Moreover, there are minimal differences between major film manufacturers like Xpel, SunTek, Eastman, Llumar, 3M, STEK clear bra, Flexishield, Global, Legend, and more. Importantly, the key takeaway is that the primary differences are in the properties of the adhesive, which installers have to deal with, but generally don’t affect anything the client sees. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: var(--e-global-typography-primary-font-weight);"> is clear bra/paint protection film/PPF the same as xpel film? </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Of course, our clients at HHCC frequently ask about Xpel clear bra/paint protection film.

With the tunes pounding you wouldn’t notice the absence of the gasoline engine’s sound. But floor the accelerator and you’ll know that the Lightning is not your standard gasoline-powered F-150; the electric motors’ instant, massive torque slams you into the seat as if you got run into from behind by a Peterbilt. Otherwise, the Lightning delivers just about everything the  </span> <a href="https://www.caranddriver.com/ford/f-150" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> regular F-150 </a> <span style="display: initial;">  does in a package that is close to a mirror image. Inside and out, the Lightning looks like other F-150s—though it’s totally different underneath, of course. All models come with two electric motors juiced by either of two battery packs. With the larger Extended-Range battery, the powertrain makes a whopping 580 horsepower, and with it the Lightning blasted to 60 mph in just 4.0 seconds at our test track. The EPA-estimated driving range varies between 230 miles with the base battery to  </span> <a href="https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a39490045/ford-f-150-lightning-range-confirmed/" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> 320 miles with the larger one </a> <span style="display: initial;"> , but towing a trailer quickly depletes the battery and requires frequent stops to charge. That drawback is common among EV pickup trucks, and rivals such as the  </span> <a href="https://www.caranddriver.com/gmc/hummer-ev" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> GMC Hummer EV SUT </a> <span style="display: initial;">  and the  </span> <a href="https://www.caranddriver.com/rivian/r1t" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> Rivian R1T </a> <span style="display: initial;">  don’t fare any better. But if you’re a truck owner who tows infrequently or only for short distances, the F-150 Lightning will serve your needs well. It is an EV workhorse that can be equipped in a variety of ways, all of which require few compromises compared to the standard gas-powered F-150. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> AFTERCARE INSTRUCTIONS AND PRODUCTS FOR MERCEDES SL550 CERAMIC COATING <br/> </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="font-weight: bolder; display: initial;"> Car care products we love: </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Drying towel(s): Autofiber Dreadnought 20”x30” x1:  </span> </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Cd5Y9w" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Cd5Y9w </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Smaller drying towel (can also be used on glass) x2 (one for paint, one for wheels): Autofiber Dreadnought Jr. 16”x16” –  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3iazPbX" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3iazPbX </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Wash mitt: Autofiber Zero Cuff Wash Mitt x2 (one in black for wheels, one other color for paint):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3WYu3Jw" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WYu3Jw </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Auto detailing towels, general purpose (wiping off bird poop, quick wipe up, interior, etc): Autofiber Elite detailing towel:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3IeLiSo" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3IeLiSo </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Wheel drying/detailing microfiber towels, black: Autofiber Zero Edge:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Z0GJBe" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z0GJBe </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Quick detailer/glass cleaner/waterless wash/rinseless wash concentrate: American Detailer Garage Wipeout (can be diluted and lasts a very long time):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3WZkwlp" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WZkwlp </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Spray bottles for ADG Wipeout and other products:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Q3kxT5" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Q3kxT5 </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Buckets with grit guards x2 (one for wheels, one for paint):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3jxjnmq" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3jxjnmq </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Pre-treatment and wheel cleaner, American Detailer Garage F-Bomb diluted 10:1 (can be used 20:1 for interior):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3G1NV7w" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3G1NV7w </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> The best wheel cleaning tool we have ever used, the Autofiber Barrel blade (reaches the barrel, between the brake caliper, and narrow spokes):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Z0wnkK" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z0wnkK </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Foam cannon wash tools for auto detailing, the MTM Hydro PF22.2 has a wide base to prevent tipping:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3WE591K" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3WE591K </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> American Detailer Garage Fuzion foaming hybrid wash (for use in foam cannon, use 2+ ounces per fill):  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3Z3MApg" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3Z3MApg </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Microfiber detergent to extend the life of your Autofiber microfiber and other towels:  </span> <a href="https://amzn.to/3jBxp6B" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://amzn.to/3jBxp6B </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Optional but useful for trucks and SUVs: Autofiber Mitt on a Stick Pro.  </span> <a href="https://www.autofiber.com/products/mitt-on-a-stick-pro-adjustable-wash-tool-with-360-locking-head-long-pole-35-to-83?variant=40748237816001" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://www.autofiber.com/products/mitt-on-a-stick-pro-adjustable-wash-tool-with-360-locking-head-long-pole-35-to-83?variant=40748237816001 </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Our most favorite detailing tool we have is our Adam’s Spot-Free Water system.

Our clear bra/paint protection film/PPF packages are warranted for 10-12 years, depending on the selected products.

No issue. Rock chips on I-35? No issue (usually!). </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Protecting a Corvette with PPF (Paint Protection Film) is a wise decision for several reasons: </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Preserves the Corvette’s Appearance: Corvettes are high-performance vehicles that often have expensive paint finishes. Applying PPF to the Corvette’s exterior surfaces will help maintain the original paint finish, protecting it from fading, chipping, and other types of damage. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Protects against damage: Corvettes are often driven on the open road, which can expose the paint finish to road debris, rocks, and other hazards. Applying PPF to the vehicle’s paint surface will create an additional layer of protection against these hazards, preventing unsightly chips and scratches that can damage the Corvette’s appearance. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Easy maintenance: PPF is easy to clean and maintain, making it an excellent investment for anyone who wants to keep their Corvette looking its best. The film can be washed with soap and water, just like the rest of the vehicle, without worrying about damaging the paint surface. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Long-lasting protection: PPF is a durable material that can last for years, providing long-lasting protection for the Corvette’s paint finish. This means that the vehicle’s appearance and value will be preserved over the long term, making it an excellent investment for any Corvette owner. </span> </li> </ol> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Overall, applying PPF to a Corvette is an excellent way to protect the vehicle’s paint finish, preserve its appearance and value, and make it easier to maintain. It is a smart investment for any Corvette owner who wants to ensure that their vehicle stays in top condition </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: var(--e-global-typography-primary-font-weight);"> Book your C8 Corvette ceramic coating/clear bra with us in Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights! </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Did you know, you can call OR text us at 254.550.4142 or visit our contact us page!  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Apart from this, you can continue to read more about our ceramic coating and clear bra, and paint correction options below.

For this gorgeous 2014 Mercedes SL550 convertible (we have a roadster, ourselves!), we did a complete interior detailing, a paint correction, and ceramic coating.

Technically, the color is Amg Lemans Rot Metallic, but I like to call it “fire engine red.” Our process included restoring some faded black trim parts, now ceramic coated. Ceramic coating provides UV protection, which will help prevent oxidation in the future from the Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights sun. The great thing about ceramic coating, is it makes it incredibly easy to clean up bugs, bird poop, dirt, and other grime you find around town. It enhances the shine and gives you that “wet” look, for years to come. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="font-weight: var(--e-global-typography-primary-font-weight); display: unset;"> Book your Mercedes SL550 or other SUV ceramic coating/clear bra with us in Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights! </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Did you know, you can call OR text us at 254.550.4142 or visit our contact us page!  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Apart from this, you can continue to read more about our ceramic coating and clear bra, and paint correction options below.

We accomplished all of this by conducting a paint correction, ceramic coating, and wheels-off ceramic coating, which included detailing the wheels inside/out, and ceramic coating the brake calipers.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Ceramic coating is a liquid that forms a semi-permanent bond with the vehicle’s paint, filling in the paint’s microscopic peaks and valleys, making it smoother. Because the painted surface on this 2020 Jaguar F-Pace is now smoother, contaminants, dirt, bird poop, and bugs don’t have as easy of a time grabbing on. This makes cleaning the 2020 Jaguar F-Pace we worked on here at Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings easier. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> When vehicles are easier to clean, it leads to several different benefits. First, we scrub the paint less than we would, because things like bird poop and bug guts don’t stick as much as they do on an uncoated surface. When scrubbing less, we do less damage to the paint, which is especially important on darker vehicles like this 2020 Jaguar F-Pace, which may show swirl marks easier. Also, we are more likely to clean the vehicle, even with busy schedules because we know it will take far less time than if the vehicle was uncoated. This, of course, is beneficial because the vehicle stays cleaner, longer. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: var(--e-global-typography-primary-font-weight);"> Book your Jaguar or other SUV ceramic coating/clear bra with us in Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights! </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Did you know, you can call OR text us at 254.550.4142 or visit our contact us page!  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Apart from this, you can continue to read more about our ceramic coating and clear bra, and paint correction options below.

Moreover, there are minimal differences between major film manufacturers like Xpel, SunTek, Eastman, Llumar, 3M, STEK clear bra, Flexishield, Global, Legend, and more. Importantly, the key takeaway is that the primary differences are in the properties of the adhesive, which installers have to deal with, but generally don’t affect anything the client sees. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: var(--e-global-typography-primary-font-weight);"> is clear bra/paint protection film/PPF the same as xpel film? </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Of course, our clients at HHCC frequently ask about Xpel clear bra/paint protection film.

He wanted to have an easy-to-clean truck immediately, and have us touch up a few problematic spots from the dealership. The dealers tend to wash vehicles poorly, and in some cases, like in this 2023 Chevy Silverado 3500 HD – leave little sanding or holograms from factory defects.

After all, we hate cleaning cars, too. Well, actually, we like cleaning vehicles, but only once they have been ceramic coated. A ceramic-coated vehicle like this 2023 GMC Denali will enjoy an easier bug gut clean up, grime clean up, and quick work of brake dust. Almost all of our ceramic coating packages, such as the one on this 2023 GMC Denali, include a two year coating on the wheel faces and one year ceramic coating on the glass! <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> The best way to protect your vehicle is to get us your vehicle ASAP before bug guts and other contaminants, such as bird poop, get etched into the paint. Because bird poop and bug guts are acidic, they can actually permanently damage your vehicle’s paint. While ceramic coating, or protective coatings, can protect against bird droppings or bug guts, they cannot stop them entirely. But they DO make them easier to clean off, and because they are so easy to clean, you are scrubbing less, which in turn, scratches the paint less. This is especially important on a black vehicle such as this 2023 GMC Denali, which is especially sensitive to swirl marks. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="font-weight: var(--e-global-typography-primary-font-weight); display: unset;"> Book your GMC Denali or similar ceramic coating/clear bra with us in Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights! </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Did you know, you can call OR text us at 254.550.4142 or visit our contact us page!  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Apart from this, you can continue to read more about our ceramic coating and clear bra, and paint correction options below.

This gorgeous 2021 Dodge RAM 1500 needed some paint correction (polishing) to restore it to it’s original glory, or better!

It is very important to get your car in for clear bra/paint protection film/PPF nearly straight away, especially on new vehicles. Clear bra/PPF will protect against most rock chips and scratches, but the longer you wait, the more likely the paint will be damaged. Unfortunately, damaged paint will look poorly under the clear film. Because PPF is so thick, it doesn’t conform well to small indentations such as rock chips. It will trap air between the Tesla Model Y paint and the film, leading to grayish-white air bubbles. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> For this Tesla Model Y, we used Legend PPF, which carries a 12 year warranty against yellowing, cracking, and fading, and installed SB3 Coatings Solo one year ceramic coating for easy cleanup.

Moreover, there are minimal differences between major film manufacturers like Xpel, SunTek, Eastman, Llumar, 3M, STEK clear bra, Flexishield, Global, Legend, and more. Importantly, the key takeaway is that the primary differences are in the properties of the adhesive, which installers have to deal with, but generally don’t affect anything the client sees. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: var(--e-global-typography-primary-font-weight);"> is clear bra/paint protection film/PPF the same as xpel film? </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Of course, our clients at HHCC frequently ask about Xpel clear bra/paint protection film.

Ceramic coating this Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights client’s 2020 Land Rover Defender 110 does just that! Ceramic coating will make this Land Rover Defender much easier to clean!

This Land Rover has a really nice, deep, silver and black color scheme. While the silver hid the swirls quite well, the black portions of the paint needed some polishing work to enhance the shine and restore gloss! After we used our Flex polishers and Lake Country pads with Sonax Cut and Finish to restore the gloss, we topped off this Land Rover Defender 110 with System X MAX ten year ceramic coating. This Land Rover will be so easy to clean, going forward! <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: var(--e-global-typography-primary-font-weight);"> Book your ceramic coating/clear bra with us in Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights! </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Did you know, you can call OR text us at 254.550.4142 or visit our contact us page!  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Apart from this, you can continue to read more about our ceramic coating and clear bra, and paint correction options below.

Moreover, there are minimal differences between major film manufacturers like Xpel, SunTek, Eastman, Llumar, 3M, STEK clear bra, Flexishield, Global, Legend, and more. Importantly, the key takeaway is that the primary differences are in the properties of the adhesive, which installers have to deal with, but generally don’t affect anything the client sees. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: var(--e-global-typography-primary-font-weight);"> is clear bra/paint protection film/PPF the same as xpel film? </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Of course, our clients at HHCC frequently ask about Xpel clear bra/paint protection film.

The Defender 110 had a maximum towing capacity of 8,201 pounds and could be configured to seat up to seven passengers. Standard features included a rearview camera, lane departure warning, and automatic emergency braking. Available options included a panoramic sunroof, a 14-speaker Meridian sound system, and a 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster.

Ceramic coating will enhance the gloss of your vehicle, especially if we conduct a paint correction (polishing) first. While ceramic coating does NOT protect against rock chips and scratches, it can reduce swirls in a roundabout way. Because, the ceramic coating makes your vehicle easier to clean, you don’t have to scrub as hard on your paint, which makes them less likely to swirl. For this ceramic coating project on this 2021 BMW X1, we used SB3 Coatings Solo one year ceramic coating on the painted surfaces. We then used SB3 Vortex two year ceramic coating on the wheel faces, and SB3 Optic one year ceramic coating on. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="font-weight: var(--e-global-typography-primary-font-weight); display: unset;"> Book your ceramic coating/clear bra with us in Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights! </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Did you know, you can call OR text us at 254.550.4142 or visit our contact us page!  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Apart from this, you can continue to read more about our ceramic coating and clear bra, and paint correction options below.

We are! We have had two Mazda MX5 (Miata), three Mazda CX5 (you can see our PPF video where we did our most recent one), and now a 2023 Mazda CX9. Mazdas have never given me issues, and despite owning over 30 vehicles in the last 25 years, the most common one I have ever purchased more than once is the CX5. Because we liked our CX5 Turbo Signature so much, we decided to trade our 2020 Ford Explorer for this Mazda CX9 Grand Touring. For the money, Mazda gives you many awesome options, such as heated front and rear seats, heated steering wheel, cooled front seats, heads-up displays, you name it. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Much like our fun CX5, which received a full front clear bra/PPF/paint protection film installation, so did our new 2023 Mazda CX9. Our full front clear bra/PPF/paint protection film package is probably our most popular package. No full-body patterns are available for the Mazda CX5 or CX9, so we will need to custom/bulk install for the rest of the vehicles (when we can find a moment!). Unlike our CX5, which got rock chips on the front bumper before getting it in the shop, we drove our Mazda CX9 and parked it until we had the time to install the film. Clear bra/PPF/paint protection film will protect against MOST rock chips and scratches. We want to get your vehicle in here as soon as you get it, to avoid having rock chips ruin the film’s appearance. Rock chips under the film will appear as white bubbles or debris, especially on darker-colored vehicles. Some lighter vehicles may obscure that light-colored “bubble.” <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="font-weight: var(--e-global-typography-primary-font-weight); display: unset;"> Book your ceramic coating/clear bra with us in Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights! </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Did you know, you can call OR text us at 254.550.4142 or visit our contact us page!  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Apart from this, you can continue to read more about our ceramic coating and clear bra, and paint correction options below.

Clear Bra,PPF,2023,1-gallery,Clear Bra/PPF 2014 Cadillac ELR - Paint Correction & Ceramic Coating | Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights 2023-02-14T06:33:37Z 2023-02-14T06:33:37Z <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="font-weight: var( --e-global-typography-primary-font-weight ); display: unset;"> 2014 Cadillac ELR - Paint Correction &amp; Ceramic Coating </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Typically when we receive a black vehicle, nearly 10 years old (like this 2014 Cadillac ELR), we expect it to be full of car wash swirls, oxidation, you name it – no disappointment here! These are the best jobs, because they show the most difference! If you have a car that you are almost SURE needs a new paint job – so long as the paint isn’t actually peeling – don’t count your car out! If you’re in the Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights area, don’t hesitate to book at an appointment for a demonstration! See if we can turn your paint around into something you can love again! <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> We began this job in Georgetown, for a repeat client, and realized quite quickly that we would finish it up at our shop in Harker Heights. No sweat, as we are fully insured to drive this 2014 Cadillac ELR (or any vehicle) when needed (although we try not to, of course)! We used our Flex rotary polishers and Sonax’s newest cutting compound, Ultimate Cut. Ultimate Cut, combined with our SB3 Coatings Black Widow hybrid wool pad provides the strongest cut for these types of job. We then follow it up with Sonax Cut and Finish, followed up by Sonax Perfect Finish. General Motors (GM) Black Paint is some of the softest paint out there, and sometimes requires three steps to get the best result possible. After we finished the polishing, we installed SB3 Coatings Omega two year ceramic coating on the painted surfaces. Next, we installed SB3 Coatings Vortex on the wheels, lasting two years. Finally, we installed SB3 Coatings Optic on the windshield, which lasts one year. The Cadillac ELR was only made in model years 2014 and 2016, with less than 3000 total combined sales. The Cadillac ELR shared a powertrain with the Chevy Volt, but was far pricier. Even back in 2014, this EV was priced at $75,000. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: var(--e-global-typography-primary-font-weight);"> Book your ceramic coating/clear bra with us in Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights! </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Did you know, you can call OR text us at 254.550.4142 or visit our contact us page!  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Apart from this, you can continue to read more about our ceramic coating and clear bra, and paint correction options below.

Moreover, there are minimal differences between major film manufacturers like Xpel, SunTek, Eastman, Llumar, 3M, STEK clear bra, Flexishield, Global, Legend, and more. Importantly, the key takeaway is that the primary differences are in the properties of the adhesive, which installers have to deal with, but generally don’t affect anything the client sees. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: var(--e-global-typography-primary-font-weight);"> is clear bra/paint protection film/PPF the same as xpel film? </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Of course, our clients at HHCC frequently ask about Xpel clear bra/paint protection film.

The last time you saw a Subaru WRX STi in the shop, it was a 2019, and you saw us complete an auto detail, engine bay cleaning, and five year ceramic coating from SB3 Coatings. Ceramic coatings are great for making your vehicle easier to clean up, enhance shine, an making bug guts easier to clean up. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> For this project, our Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights client’s Subaru WRX STi had sat outside for awhile when deployed, and needed a little love with some paint correction and ceramic coating. We appreciate our service members stationed at Fort Hood, having retired from Fort Hood ourselves. Having deployed five times myself, I know how frustrating it is to come home to a vehicle that has gotten damaged or at least suffered a bit at the hands of the Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights sun. We actually had a 2005 Subaru WRX that was damaged on a 2006-2007 deployment out of Fort Hood. Using our Flex cordless polishers and Sonax Cut and Finish with Lake Country HDO blue foam pads, we made quick work of some of that sun and swirl damage. Our paint correction resulted in an incredible shine, which we topped off with a ceramic coating. For our ceramic coating we used SB3 Coatings Thirty3 three year ceramic coating for most exterior surfaces. Next, we used SB3 Coatings Vortex two year ceramic coating for wheels, and SB3 Coatings Optic one year ceramic coating for the windshield. Thank you for your service! <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="font-weight: var(--e-global-typography-primary-font-weight); display: unset;"> Book your ceramic coating/clear bra with us in Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights! </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Did you know, you can call OR text us at 254.550.4142 or visit our contact us page!  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Apart from this, you can continue to read more about our ceramic coating and clear bra, and paint correction options below.

Next, This clear bra article covers the major differences between clear bra/paint protection film/PPF companies, if any. Moreover, there are minimal differences between major film manufacturers like Xpel, SunTek, Eastman, Llumar, 3M, STEK clear bra, Flexishield, Global, Legend, and more. Importantly, the key takeaway is that the primary differences are in the properties of the adhesive, which installers have to deal with, but generally don’t affect anything the client sees. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: var(--e-global-typography-primary-font-weight);"> is clear bra/paint protection film/PPF the same as xpel film? </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Of course, our clients at HHCC frequently ask about Xpel clear bra/paint protection film.

Fast forward to the wonderful year of 2023, and he brought us this amazing off-white, awesome specimen of a 2022 Cadillac CT4V Blackwing to redo the front bumper. Previously, this Cadillac CT4V Blackwing had a full body clear bra/paint protection film/PPF installation, but the front bumper had been damaged prior to purchase. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Unfortunately, not every rock chip can be prevented by clear bra/paint protection film/PPF, and this 2022 Cadillac CT4V PPF was no different. Therefore, we removed the existing front bumper PPF (carefully, using heat), and re-applied using our own kit and software. At Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings , we cannot always determine the existing brand of clear bra/PPF that is installed, but this was a great installation by a previous shop! However, the client was super happy that our template included one less set of seams, making the overall installation look cleaner. On lighter colored vehicles, seams are more evident, so the least amount of seams and edges we show, the better. Overall, the previous installation was great, but now it’s even better and our Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights area client is much happier (and damage free!). <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="font-weight: var(--e-global-typography-primary-font-weight); display: unset;"> Book your ceramic coating/clear bra with us in Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights! </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Did you know, you can call OR text us at 254.550.4142 or visit our contact us page!  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Apart from this, you can continue to read more about our ceramic coating and clear bra, and paint correction options below.

Clear bra/paint protection film/PPF is the choice for you! Our Killeen area client does a lot of driving back and forth with their 2022 Dodge Charger from the Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights area to Temple and back, and needed her vehicle protected from damage! <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> This vehicle has a number of small, but easily overcome challenges. On all Dodge Chargers, Challengers, and Durangos that have fender emblems, they are wildly inconsistent from the factory. Generally, this happens because emblems are hand-placed, and there are not many measurable “landmarks” on those panels. Therefore, computer software manufacturer’s tend to not recommend leaving badges on when installing clear bra/paint protection film/PPF. No issue! We easily removed the badge and created our own template to replace the badge in the same location we removed it from! Then, the 2022 Dodge Charger has a hood scoop that can be challenging for some installers. However, we have done a good bit of Dodge Charger/Challenger/Durango hoods that share many of the same features. Some of the trim levels, such as the Durango SRT 392, have the three vent option. This particular model has just one vent, so it was even more of a breeze! After we completed the clear bra/paint protection film/PPF install, we then installed SB3 Coatings Solo one year ceramic coating to make clean up so much easier. If you hate cleaning bug guts off your vehicle after a long commute – look no further than ceramic coating! <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="font-weight: var(--e-global-typography-primary-font-weight); display: unset;"> Book your ceramic coating/clear bra with us in Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights! </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Did you know, you can call OR text us at 254.550.4142 or visit our contact us page!  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Apart from this, you can continue to read more about our ceramic coating and clear bra, and paint correction options below.

Moreover, there are minimal differences between major film manufacturers like Xpel, SunTek, Eastman, Llumar, 3M, STEK clear bra, Flexishield, Global, Legend, and more.

You probably notice that we have done so many black cars, it’s almost like we are known for restoring them to showroom condition! Usually, we like to think we do better than the showroom, as the showroom often includes people rubbing up against the paint, or dealers doing improper washing. Here, we have a Mercedes-Benz C300 in black with less than 10k miles. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Mercedes is known for its “diamond clearcoat” paint – the paint is super hard, which means it’s harder to get even smaller defects out. Some polishes and compounds barely scratch the surface (pun intended) when working on German cars. No worries, here at HHCC, as we have all of the tools needed to get paint looking better than it did from the factory! For this project, we utilized a semi-aggressive combination of pad and compound with our Flex cordless polishers to achieve a near-perfect finish. We made some areas that were swirled enough to appear gray, go back to being gloss black! Now our Killeen-area client is set for the future!

Ceramic Coating,Paint Correction,2022,1-gallery,Mercedes,C300 2022 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 392 - Ten year System X ceramic coating! | Serving the Killeen area 2023-02-06T11:28:38Z 2023-02-06T11:28:38Z <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> 2022 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 392 Ceramic Coating </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> How much do you love System X ten-year ceramic coating? We love it on our BMW i8, and now this Killeen-area client gets to experience the awesomeness of it as well, on his 2022 Jeep Wrangler 392! Our client, a member of Five Hills Jeeps (5HJ) and Military Jeeps, often offroads his other Jeep Wrangler. Ceramic coating is going to make clean up THAT much easier, with mud, bug guts, and more easily coming off. Are you a Jeep owner in the Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights area? Team up with us to make that off-road vehicle (or mall crawler, no judgment here!) shine and stay easy to clean! </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> In addition to protecting the paint with System X 10-year ceramic coating, which has great UV protection for the paint, it also protects vinyl! As you might know, we do not do vinyl wraps here at HHCC. The reason for this, is, the sun in Texas can absolutely destroy vinyl graphics or vinyl wraps. However, ceramic coating CAN extend the life of vinyl. This owner has a lot of vinyl graphics, which are now protected somewhat against the Texas sun. Speaking of vinyl graphics, you’ll notice that we taped off around them and polished the Jeep to remove typical swirling that is oh-so-common on black vehicles. We used our Flex cordless polishers and Sonax Cut and Finish. After, we coated the windshield with SB3 Coatings Optic one year ceramic coating on the windshield. Afterwards, we moved on to the interior, where we conducted a full auto detail and then used SB3 Coatings Marine to coat all of the interior surfaces. SB3 Coatings Marine is typically used for boats and boat seats/rails/etc, but seeing as how this Jeep spends a lot of time with the doors off getting wet, we thought it was more appropriate. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> Book your ceramic coating/clear bra with us in Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights! </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Did you know, you can call OR text us at  </span> <a href="tell:254-55-4142" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> 254.550.4142 </a> <span style="display: initial;">  or  </span> <a href="https://hhceramiccoatings.com/harker-heights-ceramic-coatings-contact-us/" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> visit our contact us page </a> <span style="display: initial;"> !  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Apart from this, you can continue to read more about our ceramic coating and clear bra, and paint correction options below.

We have worked on their Porsche Boxster S, Toyota Tundra, Honda Clarity, Kia Soul, and Hyundai Kona. For this job, we teamed up with our friends at Austin Auto Spa, where we often rent bays for work when a client cannot travel. While there, we have installed ceramic coating, conducted paint correction, and installed clear bra. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Do you prefer having bug guts and bird poop wash off so easily from your vehicle? If so, ceramic coating is a great option for you. Clear bra/paint protection film/PPF often has some degree of hydrophobic properties, but nothing like a full ceramic coating. Additionally, our ceramic coating offerings often last longer than the hydrophobic (water-repelling) properties built into clear bra. As usual, we conducted a wash and auto detailing of the vehicle prior to installing ceramic coating. In this case, we used American Detailer Garage Wipeout rinseless/waterless wash to conduct an auto detail of this Kia Soul, prior to installing ceramic coating. Afterwards, we conducted a full panel prep using SB3 Coatings Ready, which prepares the surface for the ceramic coating! This is the crucial step to installing a ceramic coating! Contrary to popular believe, paint correction/polishing is NOT required! Then, we installed SB3 Coatings Omega two-year ceramic coating on the painted surfaces, SB3 Coatings Optic one-year ceramic coating on the windshield, and SB3 Coatings Vortex two-year ceramic coating on the wheels. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> Book your ceramic coating/clear bra with us in Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights! </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Did you know, you can call OR text us at  </span> <a href="tell:254-55-4142" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> 254.550.4142 </a> <span style="display: initial;">  or  </span> <a href="https://hhceramiccoatings.com/harker-heights-ceramic-coatings-contact-us/" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> visit our contact us page </a> <span style="display: initial;"> !  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Apart from this, you can continue to read more about our ceramic coating and clear bra, and paint correction options below.

Moreover, there are minimal differences between major film manufacturers like Xpel, SunTek, Eastman, Llumar, 3M, STEK clear bra, Flexishield, Global, Legend, and more. Importantly, the key takeaway is that the primary differences are in the properties of the adhesive, which installers have to deal with, but generally don’t affect anything the client sees. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: var(--e-global-typography-primary-font-weight);"> is clear bra/paint protection film/PPF the same as xpel film? </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Of course, our clients at HHCC frequently ask about Xpel clear bra/paint protection film.

The owner wanted to protect the custom paint job on this awesome bike, so he brought it to us to install clear bra/paint protection film/PPF. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> In comes the company, Ride Wrap, which makes custom kits for various bikes. Their Ride Wrap kits are essentially similar to the clear bra we use. As a matter of fact, when we added some of our own custom pieces to the 2022 Specialized Epic Evo, it was nearly indistinguishable in size/thickness. Where the owner benefited by bringing his bike to us, is that there are a lot of small pieces and complicated twists and turns. In the past, he installed these on his own bikes but knew that our expertise, tools, and equipment would help us finish this project with no bubbles or lifting. These Ride Wraps, just like clear bra/paint protection film/PPF, prevent rock chips from damaging the sensitive paint when riding the bike. We enjoyed this Ride Wrap installation project, and look forward to more, in the future. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> Book your ceramic coating/clear bra with us in Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights! </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Did you know, you can call OR text us at  </span> <a href="tell:254-55-4142" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> 254.550.4142 </a> <span style="display: initial;">  or  </span> <a href="https://hhceramiccoatings.com/harker-heights-ceramic-coatings-contact-us/" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> visit our contact us page </a> <span style="display: initial;"> !  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Apart from this, you can continue to read more about our ceramic coating and clear bra, and paint correction options below.

Watch this baby shine - make yours, next! Mustang,Ceramic Coating,2014,Paint Correction,Ford 2023 Acura TLX A-Spec Ceramic Coating and PPF Killeen/Harker Heights 2022-12-31T05:33:06Z 2022-12-31T05:33:06Z <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Here we have a brand new Acura TLX A-Spec straight from the dealer receiving ceramic coating and clear bra! What is the benefit of both ceramic coating and clear bra? Let me tell you! With clear bra, you get a protective layer of film that protects against most rock chips and scratches. Alternatively, you get easier clean up with ceramic coating. So why combine ceramic coating and clear bra? While some clear bra/paint protection film/PPF does have some hydrophobic (water-repellant) properties, we haven’t found any as good as a professional ceramic coating. Additionally, a professional ceramic coating and clear bra gives you the protection from rock chips, as well as make the edges of the film easier to clean. <span>  </span> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: var(--e-global-typography-primary-font-weight);"> Why both ceramic coating and clear bra? </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Why is that important? Well, almost all clear bra/PPF/paint protection film installations we do for our Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights clients have at least SOME edges. Edges of sticky adhesive can get dirty. Therefore, ceramic coating and clear bra together will make those edges easier to clean instead of collecting dirt indefinitely.  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> For this ceramic coating and clear bra/paint protection film project we used Legend PPF, which carries a 12 year warranty. For our ceramic coating, we used SB3 Coatings Alpha, our most popular, five-year ceramic coating. Unsurprisingly, this 2023 Acura TLX A-Spec came to us straight from the dealer in Austin up to the Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights area. Additionally, we installed SB3 Coatings Vortex two-year ceramic coating on the wheels, and SB3 Coatings Optic one-year ceramic coating on the windshield. You can think of SB3 Coatings Optic like Rain X on steroids!

Of course, that sort of problem is not an issue for us at Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings, so long as you cannot catch them with your fingernail. Sometimes, swirls and scratches that you cannot catch are still deep, especially from automated car washes that are so common around here. You might have heard of Mister Car Wash or Today’s Car Wash – these automatic car washes are actually terrible for your paint. Fortunately, this client did not have that issue on his Telluride. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> We used our Flex polishers, as usual, along with our Lake Country HDO foam pads, and Meguiar’s Ultra Pro Speed Compound to remove the scuffs. Afterwards, we applied SB3 Coatings Alpha 5 year ceramic coating on the painted surfaces, as well as SB3 Vortex two year ceramic coating on the wheels, and SB3 Optic on the windshield.

Previously, we installed clear bra/paint protection film and ceramic coating on his 2022 Maserati Ghibli Trofeo. We installed STEK clear bra and SB3 Coatings ceramic coating in this case. Believe it or not, Audi RS5 was actually purchased in Florida and shipped here to the Killeen / Copperas Cove / Harker Heights area. Initially, Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings was expected to conduct a full STEK clear bra on the entire car, but a shop in Florida installed a full front PPF package for him, as the original intent was to drive it back from Florida. Thanks to Florida hurricane season, it ended up getting shipped to Central Texas, instead! <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> At HHCC, we always appreciate the opportunity to install STEK clear bra on multiple vehicles for clients.

STEK clear bra is one of the industry’s leading paint protection film/PPF brands.

Moreover, there are minimal differences between major film manufacturers like Xpel, SunTek, Eastman, Llumar, 3M, STEK clear bra, Flexishield, Global, Legend, and more.

Black vehicles, such as this Cadillac CTS-V, are easily damaged with washing swirls. Unlike silver or white colored paint, black paint does not hide any scratches or swirls. Maybe you have seen that almost gray color when a vehicle is heavily swirled and requires ceramic coating and paint correction.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Unfortunately, ceramic coating by itself does not cover or eliminate swirls. In fact, quite the opposite. Ceramic coating tends to enhance or magnify defects in your vehicle’s paint (just like it enhances good paint after a ceramic coating and paint correction combination). <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Using our tried and true Flex Power Tools rotary and dual action polishers, we are able to to achieve great results even on black paint. General Motors (GM) black paint often haunts auto detailers due to its soft nature, making it difficult to conduct ceramic coating and paint correction without inadvertently causing micro-marring. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Also, we pair our Meguiar’s polish and compound, with Lake Country polishing pads, to create an awesome 1-2 knockout punch that removes the swirls. After we finished our polishing, we then applied a two year ceramic coating to the paint. Of course, the ceramic coating and paint correction enhanced the gloss of the vehicle, making our Killeen-area client incredibly happy! <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> BOOK YOUR CERAMIC COATING AND PAINT CORRECTION WITH US IN KILLEEN/COPPERAS COVE/FT.

Att HHCC, we try to accommodate all of our clients, and this was no different. Due to the fact that our client lives in Austin but works on Fort Hood/Killeen, we teamed up with Austin Auto Spa in Austin to borrow some space to install clear bra and ceramic coating. You maybe have seen Justin from Austin Auto Spa in our space, as well! We believe in working together, not in competition. This 2014 Porsche Boxster S was one of the older vehicles we have every installed clear bra/paint protection film/PPF on. Typically, clear bra becomes difficult to install even on what most of us consider new vehicles, simply because, as rock chips accumulate, they look worse under the film as time goes on. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Somehow, this Boxster S managed to escape the brunt of that issue, and we were able to install our clear bra as well as an SB3 Coatings five-year ceramic coating on the paint protection film surfaces, as well as on the painted surfaces. We also installed a two-year ceramic coating on the wheel faces (also from SB3 Coatings), and a one-year ceramic coating on the windshield!

This was our first Rivian at HHCC, let alone the Rivian R1S fully-electric SUV. As we mentioned in our article about the Ford Mustang Mach E – we seem to be getting more and more electric vehicles and hybrid electric vehicles here. We have our own hybrid, the BMW i8, a few Tesla Model Y, this Rivian R1S, a Honda Clarity, the Ford Mustang Mach E, and a few others! We are proud of the fact that our 55 panel, 22.14kW solar panel system powers our home and our business with ZERO net electricity consumption from the electric grid (some months are over-produced and returned to the grid, and some months are slightly short, but most months we over produce solar electricity, given the amount of sun we receive in the Copperas Cove/Killeen/Fort Hood/Harker Heights areas). <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> For this Rivian R1S, the Killeen-area client brought it to us almost straight from the delivery. This is incredibly important to do with clear bra, just as we mentioned in our article about the Toyota Camry TRD that came to us. With paint being so thin, rock chips often happen even within the first 100 miles. After we completed the clear bra installation, we installed a five-year ceramic coating from SB3 Coatings on all painted surfaces, a two-year ceramic coating on the wheels, and a one-year ceramic coating on the windshield. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: var(--e-global-typography-primary-font-weight);"> BOOK YOUR INSTALL WITH US IN KILLEEN/COPPERAS COVE/FT.

The WRX is a great platform and fun to drive, which is all the more reason to protect them with either clear bra or ceramic coating, or both. We previously ceramic coated this Subaru WRX STi with a five-year ceramic coating, and it was due for an annual inspection, ceramic coating top off, engine bay detail, and it needed to have a couple panels that were damaged in an accident re-coated. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> We had also previously completed a wheels-off ceramic coating package for this Killeen-area client, prior to him installing the wheels on the car.

Because sports cars in the Copperas Cove/Killeen/Fort Hood/Harker Heights areas sit so low to the ground and have wide wheels and tires, they tend to accumulate bugs, chips, scratches, and other defects easier than a vehicle that sits higher, like an SUV. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Most of our C8 Corvette owners opt to receive a full front or track package clear bra/paint protection film/PPF and then top the rest of the car with ceramic coating. All of our major ceramic coating packages include wheel faces and windshields, but we can also remove wheels and conduct a wheels-off ceramic coating package (which includes the brake calipers and inner parts of the wheel that cannot be reached with the wheel still on the car).

In this case, the clients really weren’t a huge fan of the stripes, which were matte in color. Initially, they were thinking about removing the vinyl stripes, but then they began to grow on them. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> However, they preferred if the stripes were gloss black instead of the matte black vinyl stripes it came with.  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> We started this job by installing a clear bra/paint protection film/PPF “track package” (mirrors, fenders, hood, front bumper, rocker panels, leading edge of the roof and leading edge of the A-pillars, all covered in PPF/paint protection film).  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> In the next step, we removed the clear bra/PPF from the matte stripes, as they are textured and the paint protection film will have a bunch of tiny air pockets that look bad when installed over it. Next, we contacted our reps at STEK paint protection films, and ordered a large roll of gloss black (dynoBLACK) STEK film to redo the vinyl racing stripes, but with the level of protection that paint protection film provides (remember from our frequently asked questions that vinyl wrap provides almost no protection against rock chips and damage, unlike clear bra – and in fact, one of the issues the clients had was that there was already a nick in the front of the vinyl stripes). </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> This required a lot of custom cutting on our Graphtec plotter, trimming, and maneuvering to get the clear bra to look right (the vinyl racing stripes LOOK as though they are straight, but they are actually slightly wider or thinner at certain points).  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Read more about clear bra/paint protection film: </span> </span> <a href="/clear-bra-copperas-cove-killeen-harker-heights-tx" style="display: initial;"> https://hhceramiccoatings.com/clear-bra/ </a> <span style="display: initial;">   </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Read more about ceramic coating: </span> </span> <a href="/ceramic-coating-in-killeen-tx" style="display: initial;"> https://hhceramiccoatings.com/ceramic-coating/ </a> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: unset;"> <span style="display: unset;"> &#55357;&#56596; If you find this article useful, please </span> </span> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkOqS-RpybYK_m7Y938vtuQ" style="display: unset;" target="_blank"> subscribe to our YouTube channel! </a> <span style="display: unset;"> &#55357;&#56596;  </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h4> <span style="display: unset;"> Clear Bra </span> </h4> <p> <span style="display: unset;"> For this vehicle, we used Legend Paint Protection Films (https://legendppf.com/).

Our client commutes many miles each way for work, and those miles accumulate bug guts. If you have seen our other articles and YouTube videos on bug guts, you know that they can etch the paint over time (similar to bird droppings).  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: unset;"> The goal here is to install SB3 Coatings Omega two year ceramic coating on the painted surfaces, which will make bug gut cleanup so much easier. When cleanup is easier, we have to scrub less on the paint. Scrubbing less on the paint during an auto detail makes us less likely to scratch the paint AND more likely to clean it in the first place (if doing an auto detail is a CHORE, we are less likely to do it, whereas with ceramic coating, it’s so much easier!). </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: unset;"> After we installed SB3 Coatings Omega two year ceramic coating on the painted (and plastic) exterior surfaces, we installed SB3 Coatings Optic one year ceramic coating for the windshield and SB3 Coatings Vortex two year ceramic coating for the wheels, which should make the excessive brake dust from the commute that much easier to clean, as well! </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> &#55357;&#56596; If you </span> </span> <span style="display: unset;"> <span style="display: unset;"> find this article useful, please subscribe to our </span> </span> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkOqS-RpybYK_m7Y938vtuQ" style="display: unset;" target="_blank"> YouTube channel! </a> <span style="display: unset;"> &#55357;&#56596;  </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h4> <span style="display: initial;"> About our clear bra/paint protection films: </span> </h4> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> For this vehicle, we used Legend Paint Protection Films ( </span> <a href="https://legendppf.com/" style="display: initial;" target="_blank"> https://legendppf.com/ </a> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> ).

This has the same qualities we love from our standard gloss clear bra (rock chip protection, swirl filling in), with the nice gloss black appearance of what you would want from vinyl.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Of course, the huge difference is our clear bra/paint protection/PPF will actually last in the Texas sun here in the Killeen/Copperas Cove/Fort Hood/Harker Heights areas, whereas vinyl does not seem to hold up well to our sun and temperatures (we have seen some vinyl roof color changes on Corvettes fail after just 1-3 years!). </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> We recommend ceramic coating all vinyl and even clear bra/paint protection film/PPF for the additional UV protection that will make all films last longer! </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Check out the build on their Instagram! <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> &#55357;&#56596; If you find this content useful, please </span> </span> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkOqS-RpybYK_m7Y938vtuQ" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> subscribe to our YouTube channel </a> <span style="display: initial;"> ! &#55357;&#56596;  </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h4> <span style="display: initial;"> About our clear bra/paint protection films: </span> </h4> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> For this vehicle, we used Legend Paint Protection Films ( </span> <a href="https://legendppf.com/" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> https://legendppf.com/ </a> <span style="display: initial;"> ). We talked a lot in a FAQ article about what the major differences are between clear bra/paint protection film/PPF companies, if any, between major film manufacturers like Xpel, SunTek, Eastman, Llumar, 3M, Ceramic Pro – Kavaca, STEK, Flexishield, Global, Legend and more (https://hhceramiccoatings.com/what-is-the-difference-between-major-clear-bra-brands-faq/). The key takeaway is that the primary differences are in the properties of the adhesive, which is something installers have to deal with, but generally, don’t have an effect on anything the client sees. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> People frequently ask about Xpel clear bra/paint protection film, and if Legend PPF compares to Xpel at all. A lot of people use Xpel to mean clear bra, because Xpel is one of the most popular brands.

(The other vehicle was a 2022 BMW X4, which also received clear bra/paint protection film). There are quite a few of these Brooklyn Gray BMWs driving around the Killeen/Fort Hood/Copperas Cove/Harker Heights areas (also an X5M Competition that was for sale locally at the Killeen Ford dealer).  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Here we used the brand Legend PPF (the FIRST clear bra company to offer a 12 year warranty) to install clear bra/paint protection film on the hood, fenders, front bumper, mirrors, door cups, and pillars. If you have ever owned a car with the piano black side pillars, you know how awful of a time you can have trying to keep them scratch and swirl free (we just assume any set and every set will always be swirled)! </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> After we finished installing the clear bra/paint protection film, we installed a five year ceramic coating using SB3 Coatings Alpha. We plan to have the client back very shortly for more clear bra and ceramic coating pieces! <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> &#55357;&#56596; If you find this content useful, please </span> </span> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkOqS-RpybYK_m7Y938vtuQ" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> subscribe to our YouTube channel </a> <span style="display: initial;"> ! &#55357;&#56596;  </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h4> <span style="display: initial;"> Ceramic Coating Choices </span> </h4> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> – The SB3 Coatings Solo is our one year ceramic coating  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> – SB3 Coatings Omega is our two year ceramic coating. This also creates a “Jolly Rancher” effect </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> – The SB3 Coatings Thirty3 is our three-year ceramic coating </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> – SB3 Coatings Alpha is a five-year coating. Similar to other major brands’ 9H – SB3 Coatings Alpha utilizes a single coating system. This helps us get your vehicle back to you faster without sacrificing quality. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> – The SB3 Coatings Trinity is a seven-year coating. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> – SB3 Coatings Vortex is a two-year ceramic coating designed specifically for wheels &amp; calipers </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> – The SB3 Coatings Optic is a one-year ceramic coating similar to glass-ceramic coatings on the market and is used on your windshield/glass surfaces. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> – We also carry SB3 Coatings Marine and Industrial coatings for specific marine or equipment uses. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> – System X Max is our ten year ceramic coating, which also includes just one layer, returning your vehicle to you in a timely fashion. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <h4> <span style="display: initial;"> Our Material </span> </h4> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> For this vehicle, we used Legend Paint Protection Films (https://legendppf.com/). We talked a lot in a FAQ article about what the major differences are between clear bra/paint protection film/PPF companies, if any, between major film manufacturers like Xpel, SunTek, Eastman, Llumar, 3M, Ceramic Pro – Kavaca, STEK, Flexishield, Global, Legend and more (https://hhceramiccoatings.com/what-is-the-difference-between-major-clear-bra-brands-faq/). The key takeaway is that the primary differences are in the properties of the adhesive, which is something installers have to deal with, but generally, don’t have an effect on anything the client sees. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> People frequently ask about Xpel clear bra/paint protection film, and if Legend PPF compares to Xpel at all. A lot of people use Xpel to mean clear bra because Xpel is one of the most popular brands. We also discuss Xpel and if it’s the same as clear bra, here: https://hhceramiccoatings.com/is-xpel-the-same-as-clear-bra-faq/ </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Read more about clear bra/paint protection film: </span> </span> <a href="/clear-bra-copperas-cove-killeen-harker-heights-tx" style="display: initial;"> https://hhceramiccoatings.com/clear-bra/ </a> <span style="display: initial;">   </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <h3> <span style="display: initial;"> Contact </span> </h3> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;">  Think we did a good job with this 2023 BMW m340i Clear Bra Install &amp; Five Year Ceramic Coating?

Both vehicles are used for some off-road use – hunting, fishing, etc around the Killeen/Fort Hood/Copperas Cove/Belton/Harker Heights areas. As such, they’re bound to get a little scuffed up, so we took care of some minor issues with polishing on both of them. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: unset;"> We started off by doing an auto detail using P&amp;S Bug Off to get all the stubborn bugs off, then a foam cannon wash and bath using spot free water.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: unset;"> Unlike the Dodge RAM Rebel, which needed SB3 Coatings Trim ceramic coating and restoration, the Chevy Silverado was still very much in good condition (with respect to the trim). We still put a five year SB3 Coatings Alpha ceramic coating on the trim along with the paint, ceramic coating on the headlights, metal, and other areas. We used SB3 Coatings Optic one year ceramic coating on the windshield (ceramic coatings for windshields are almost always a one year warranty, as the wiper blades will rub against it faster than you would rub off ceramic coating on paint or wheels), and SB3 Coatings Vortex two year coating on the wheels (ceramic coatings for wheels are usually less, as even though they are very durable, brake dust and other contaminants can eat away at almost any chemical).  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: unset;"> The clients were so stoked and hoping they don’t have the same issues with bugs sticking everywhere that they used to now that the surfaces are ceramic coated! </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: unset;"> <span style="display: unset;"> Read more about clear bra/paint protection film: </span> </span> <a href="/clear-bra-copperas-cove-killeen-harker-heights-tx" style="display: unset;"> https://hhceramiccoatings.com/clear-bra/ </a> <span style="display: unset;">   </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: unset;"> <span style="display: unset;"> Read more about ceramic coating: </span> </span> <a href="/ceramic-coating-in-killeen-tx" style="display: unset;"> https://hhceramiccoatings.com/ceramic-coating/ </a> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: unset;"> <span style="display: unset;"> &#55357;&#56596; If you find this article useful, please </span> </span> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkOqS-RpybYK_m7Y938vtuQ" style="display: unset;" target="_blank"> subscribe to our YouTube channel </a> <span style="display: unset;"> !&#55357;&#56596;  </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h4> <span style="display: initial;"> Ceramic Coating Choices </span> </h4> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> *Note: SB3 Coatings ( </span> <a href="http://sb3coating.com" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> sb3coating.com </a> <span style="display: initial;"> ) are great coatings, and are similar to other offerings we have had in the past.

Initially this was going to be a clear bra/paint protection film/PPF job, but, unfortunately, there were too many rock chips in the front bumper for the client’s liking. If you recall from our Frequently Asked Questions on Clear Bra and Ceramic Coating, too many rock chips in the bumper prior to a clear bra/paint protection film installation will make the final appearance look unsightly. The reason is, the rock chips with film over them create an air pocket, which appears white, or clear, and looks like debris under the clear bra/paint protection film.  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Unfortunately for this client, he was driving on I-35 when a truck dumped a bunch of rocks out of the back, creating small chips that would have made a messy appearance.  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Instead of installing clear bra/paint protection film, we agreed to do a paint correction/paint enhancement, and then install an SB3 Alpha Five-Year coating.

They decided to drive up from Austin to the Killeen/Harker Heights area to have us make this baby look new again! </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> The ATS-V has been driven on track at the F1 track in Austin, Texas: Circuit of the Americas (COTA), and therefore has some significant rock chipping in the front bumper. This is only particularly noticeable if you are looking for it, but it is something to note – once the paint is polished, rock chips can become more obvious, as the scratching and scuffing were previously hiding these defects, blending in when viewed with the naked eye. You can see more of this Cadillac in our “When is the Best Time to Install Clear Bra” FAQ video. Initially, we were going to install a full front clear bra/paint protection film/PPF on this car, but placing paint protection film over a large amount of rock chips will create air pockets, which, especially on a black car, can look unsightly. As such, we conducted paint correction and installed and SB3 Solo ceramic coating instead.  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> FLEX rotary polisher </span> </h2> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> As usual, we used our FLEX rotary polisher to cut (compound) the paint, removing most scratches and swirls, followed by our FLEX dual action/random orbital polisher to polish the fine scratches left by the rotary polisher during the cutting phase.  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> We ended this job by installing SB3 Coatings – SB3 “Solo” one-year ceramic coating. SB3 Solo is similar to Ceramic Pro Sport, which is another professional-level ceramic spray coating (real ceramic coating, not the “fake” sealants you see).

We also err on the side of caution, as paint protection film is not an inexpensive investment, and we want our clients to be incredibly happy with the end result. Clear bra over top of rock chips appears as air pockets or imperfections under the film. A few here and there are typically not a huge concern, and we will the rock chips with a little bit of a color matched crayon prior to installing the film/wrap. At a certain point, however, it is better to forego the clear bra/paint protection film and just stick to polishing/paint correction/paint enhancement and ceramic coating.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: unset;"> This paint just looked stunning under the lights in the shop at HHCC, and we hope you enjoy it as much as we did. For this project, we used our Flex cordless polishers, Meguiar’s microfiber cutting pads with Meguiar’s M110 Ultra Pro Speed Compound followed by Lake Country HDO Blue Foam with M110 as a polishing agent. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Meguiar's M110 Ultra Pro Speed Compound </span> </h2> <p> <span style="display: unset;"> Meguiar’s M110 Ultra Pro Speed Compound, when used with the right pad combination and skill, can finish as well, if not better, than some polishes on the market. If you need to use a polish, Meguiar’s M210 Ultra Pro Finishing Polish is a good choice. M110 and M210 essentially are follow up products from the older Meguiar’s M105 and M205, which still exist on the market. M205 can sometimes be used when you need to cut a little harder with a polish, as the M205 is slightly higher cutting agent than M210. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: unset;"> <span style="display: unset;"> Read more about clear bra/paint protection film: </span> </span> <a href="/clear-bra-copperas-cove-killeen-harker-heights-tx" style="display: unset;"> https://hhceramiccoatings.com/clear-bra/ </a> <span style="display: unset;">   </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: unset;"> <span style="display: unset;"> &#55357;&#56596; If you find this article useful, please subscribe to our </span> </span> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkOqS-RpybYK_m7Y938vtuQ" style="display: unset;" target="_blank"> YouTube channel! </a> <span style="display: unset;"> &#55357;&#56596;  </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h3> <span style="display: unset;"> Contact </span> </h3> <p> <span style="display: unset;"> <span style="display: unset;">  Think we did a good job with this C7 Stingray Five Year Ceramic Coating &amp; Paint Correction?

At first, we weren’t sure that we liked it. However, we really fell in love with it while we had it at HHCC!  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Just a reminder that we have a 55 panel, 22.14kW solar panel system on our shop, and EV chargers both inside, and outside.

Fortunately, white hides a lot of scratches, but under our light we could see years of swirls. As always, we used our Flex polishers, Lake Country blue and orange HDO pads, Meguiar’s M110 Ultra Pro Speed Compound and Meguiar’s M210 Ultra Pro Finishing Polish to prep the paint and make it look new again. Sure enough, the owner thought it looked like new! </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <h3> <span style="display: initial;"> PAint Corrections </span> </h3> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> After we compounded and polished and finished our two-step paint correction, we installed SB3 Coatings Thirty3. This is a three-year ceramic coating boasting a glossy finish It also has hydrophobic properties, chemical resistance, UV protection, and more. We then applied SB3 Coatings Vortex two-year ceramic coating on the wheels and SB3 Coatings Optic one year ceramic coating on the windshield and glass.  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;">   </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> We have had so many ceramic coating clients over the last few weeks as it gets into car cleaning season.

She had already received a few rock chips, and was borderline between being able to install the clear bra/paint protection film and not being able to (as we discuss in our frequently asked questions section – at a certain point, the rock chips become too much and the clear bra/PPF will have pockets of air where the chips are, and look worse). </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: unset;"> We ended up filling in many of the smaller chips with a crayon that was similar in color to the Brooklyn Gray, which allows the hole to be slightly filled (covering up the primer underneath), without creating the raised bump that you might typically get by fixing rock chips (that also creates an air pocket that looks bad under the clear bra/paint protection film). </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Clear Bra </span> </h2> <p> <span style="display: unset;"> Overall, this installation of clear bra came out amazing, with just a minor tweak. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: unset;"> We are not always perfect, and sometimes, as we have discussed in other blog articles and frequently asked questions, no installation is flawless. However, in this case, the BMW X4 driver mirror continued to lift up on the edge. We decided to redo both mirrors to ensure the client was happy. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: unset;"> Mirror clear bra installations can be more difficult to lay down. As the tension required to wrap an 8mil thick paint protection film without wrinkles is high. This makes it the most commonly returned item. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: unset;"> Why are we telling everyone about an imperfect clear bra/paint protection film/PPF installation?  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: unset;"> Mainly because of expectation management. A typical clear bra/paint protection film installation has a two-week follow-up period where we check for issues like this. We addressed all of the client’s concerns, and as you can see from our reviews, she was totally satisfied! We try very hard to ensure this never comes up where clear bra lifts, and many shops make every attempt to hide any imperfection in their clear bra/PPF installations, especially online, where everyone is afraid to post issues.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: unset;"> The important takeaway from this installation is that after voicing some concerns to us, we rushed to ensure they were taken care of and satisfied. These situations are NOT the normal with clear bra/paint protection film installations, but it’s important to understand that NO business can PREVENT problems – they happen. Each business is defined by how they handle issues.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: unset;"> <span style="display: unset;"> Read more about clear bra/paint protection film: </span> </span> <a href="/clear-bra-copperas-cove-killeen-harker-heights-tx" style="display: unset;"> https://hhceramiccoatings.com/clear-bra/ </a> <span style="display: unset;">   </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: unset;"> <span style="display: unset;"> Read more about ceramic coating: </span> </span> <a href="/ceramic-coating-in-killeen-tx" style="display: unset;"> https://hhceramiccoatings.com/ceramic-coating/ </a> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: unset;"> <span style="display: unset;"> &#55357;&#56596; If you find this article useful, please subscribe to our </span> </span> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkOqS-RpybYK_m7Y938vtuQ" style="display: unset;" target="_blank"> YouTube channel </a> <span style="display: unset;"> !&#55357;&#56596;  </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h3> <span style="display: initial;"> Contact </span> </h3> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;">  Think we did a good job with this 2022 BMW X4 Full Front Clear Bra and Ceramic Coating Installation?

The saw our amazing reviews and decided to bring this new-to-him Ford Mustang GT directly to us after purchasing. This Ford Mustang GT had been run through many automatic car washes by the previous owner. The swirls and paint definitely showed that!  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> This Mustang was actually quite finicky to work with. It required multiple steps of polishing/paint enhancement prior to installing the SB3 Solo ceramic coating. In many cases, when we are conducting paint correction/paint enhancement prior to ceramic coating, we can accomplish it in one or two steps, but this paint did not want to finish properly (leaving tiny holograms/micro marring), so it took a little more time and effort. At the end of the day, we were able to make this Ford Mustang GT look like an absolute mirror, and the client was incredibly happy with the results! He works and has family in the Killeen/Harker Heights area, but commutes almost every day from his home in Temple, so having this SB3 Solo ceramic coating installed will be a HUGE help for removing bug guts. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> For the paint correction/paint enhancement we used SB3 Black Widow hybrid foam wool pads on our FLEX rotary polishers, and finished with blue/black/orange Lake Country HDO pads. As always, we used Meguiar’s M110 and 210 compound and polish, respectively. We applied SB3 Solo one year ceramic coating to the exterior painted and plastic surfaces, SB3 Optic on the windshield, but did not apply ceramic coating to the wheels as we usually would. This client is getting new wheels and potentially an airbag suspension installed. They will bring the new wheels to us to have ceramic coated when they arrive.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Paint Protection Film AKA Clear Bra </span> </h2> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> We did not install any clear bra/paint protection film/PPF on this job.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> SB3 Coatings (sb3coating.com) are great coatings, and are similar to other offerings we have had in the past – SB3 Solo is similar to Ceramic Pro Sport (although SB3 Solo has a one year warranty whereas Ceramic Pro Sport has a six month warranty), SB3 Vortex is similar to Ceramic Pro Wheel &amp; Caliper or Ceramic Pro 9H (Ceramic Pro 9H for glossy black or matte wheels and Ceramic Pro Wheel &amp; Caliper for other types), and SB3 Optic is similar to Ceramic Pro Glass.

Our first client, who was from the Killeen/Harker Heights area, already had a full clear bra/paint protection film/PPF on his white Audi RS6, and we did a wheels-off ceramic coating package, where we had used Ceramic Pro 9H on the wheels and wheel barrels, and Ceramic Pro Wheel &amp; Caliper on his large Audi brake calipers.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Fast forward a few months, and we have a repeat client, who used to live in Killeen/Harker Heights. They are purchasing a new-to-him Audi RS6 in Plano/Dallas. We have ceramic coated and paint corrected his Toyota Tacoma TRD when he was living in Killeen / Copperas Cove / Harker Heights areas, and then he flew us out to ceramic coat his BMW M5 Competition and his Audi R8 V10 Plus in Arizona. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> This time, we were installing clear bra/paint protection film/PPF on his 2021 Audi RS6. The Audi RS6 came from the dealership with clear bra/paint protection film on the full front (mirrors, hood, fenders, front bumper), but he asked us to add clear bra on all four doors, the quarter panels, and some scuff guard areas on the rear bumper/hatch. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> After we finished with the clear bra, we topped off the installation with SB3 Solo one year ceramic coating on the paint/PPF/clear bra/paint protection film, and SB3 Optic one year coating on the windshield/glass.  </span> </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Read more about clear bra/paint protection film: </span> </span> <a href="/clear-bra-copperas-cove-killeen-harker-heights-tx" style="display: initial;"> https://hhceramiccoatings.com/clear-bra/ </a> <span style="display: initial;">   </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Read more about ceramic coating: </span> </span> <a href="/ceramic-coating-in-killeen-tx" style="display: initial;"> https://hhceramiccoatings.com/ceramic-coating/ </a> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> &#55357;&#56596; If you find this content useful, please </span> </span> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkOqS-RpybYK_m7Y938vtuQ" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> subscribe to our YouTube channel </a> <span style="display: initial;"> ! &#55357;&#56596;  </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h3> <span style="display: initial;"> Contact </span> </h3> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Think we did a good job with this Audi RS6 Clear Bra &amp; Ceramic Coating Installation?

Here we have a 2022 Jeep Wrangler 4XE hybrid Jeep! We are hybrid owners ourselves, owning a 2019 BMW i8 Roadster, which you may have seen in some of our clear bra/paint protection film/ceramic coating videos or frequently asked questions.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Here at HHCC we have level one chargers (they do not provide a lot of power, but enough to have your vehicle leave with more power than they arrived!) both inside and out. Our shop and home are powered by 55 solar panels, totaling 22.14kW, with a net grid usage of 0 day in and day out. Even with all of our paint correction/ceramic coating/clear bra equipment, massive light systems, and HVAC/AC/dehumidifier. We don’t know if we are the “greenest” shop around, but we must be close! </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Ceramic Coating Installation </span> </h2> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> This Jeep came to us practically straight from the Killeen dealership for us to install SB3 Alpha &amp; Omega (sometimes called Almega), which combined together is a seven year ceramic coating. In addition, we installed SB3 Coatings Vortex wheel ceramic coating and SB3 Coatings Optic windshield ceramic coating. Fortunately, the vehicle barely needed any preparation work as it was still completely clean! No paint correction/paint enhancement was necessary! </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Many auto detailers claim that paint correction is ALWAYS required prior to ceramic coating, but this is simply not true. We always conduct a good decontamination to ensure the ceramic coating will properly bond to the paint, but paint correction/paint enhancement/auto detailing is always up to the client and how satisifed they are with their paint. And this awesome Killeen family did not need it! </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Read more about clear bra/paint protection film: </span> </span> <a href="/clear-bra-copperas-cove-killeen-harker-heights-tx" style="display: initial;"> https://hhceramiccoatings.com/clear-bra/ </a> <span style="display: initial;">   </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Read more about ceramic coating: </span> </span> <a href="/ceramic-coating-in-killeen-tx" style="display: initial;"> https://hhceramiccoatings.com/ceramic-coating/ </a> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> &#55357;&#56596; If you find this content useful, please </span> </span> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkOqS-RpybYK_m7Y938vtuQ" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> subscribe to our YouTube channel </a> <span style="display: initial;"> ! &#55357;&#56596;  </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h3> <span style="display: initial;"> Contact </span> </h3> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Think we did a good job with this Maserati Ghibli Trofeo Full Body Clear Bra &amp; 5 Ceramic Coating?

You do not need to be driving on a racetrack to benefit from the clear bra track package. The track package adds rocker panels (up into the door scoops on the C8 Corvette), leading edge of the A-pillar, and leading edge of the roof to the typical “Full Front” clear bra/paint protection film package, which includes mirrors, fenders, hood, and front bumper.  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> We have worked on quite a few C8 Corvette Stingrays, be it doing paint enhancement/paint correction/ceramic coating, or installing clear bra/paint protection film/PPF (or both). We use our Graphtec FC9000-160 PPF plotter to cut patterns for the C8, and we use the Eastman/Llumar software Core to do it. Core has perfect cuts for the C8, which allows us to remove very little of the badges and prevents us from having to manually hand-cut some of the Corvette wording (such as on the lower front bumper).  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Badge Removal </span> </h2> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> There are only a few Chevy dealers in the Killeen/Temple areas, we try to not have to replace badge, this allows us to cut close enough to make the seams largely unnoticeable. The way shipping times and backorders are going during COVID-19 and transport shortages (and port of LA backlogs), we don’t want to take chances on our clients having to wait for parts, in the event something breaks. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> We have never experienced an issue with badges breaking, but it is possible. At times, Tesla badges get broken and have been on backorder for over a month. Tesla cameras on the fenders might also break, despite our best efforts of being careful. Therefore, we try to remove as little as possible, unless the client specifically requests it, to reduce the chances.  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> You can also see more of this C8 Corvette under our Clear Bra FAQ section of our YouTube channel where we discuss tucking and trimming after every PPF installation to make the install look at seamless and clean as possible.  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Read more about clear bra/paint protection film: </span> </span> <a href="/clear-bra-copperas-cove-killeen-harker-heights-tx" style="display: initial;"> https://hhceramiccoatings.com/clear-bra/ </a> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> . </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Read more about ceramic coating: </span> </span> <a href="/ceramic-coating-in-killeen-tx" style="display: initial;"> https://hhceramiccoatings.com/ceramic-coating/ </a> <span style="display: initial;"> . <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> &#55357;&#56596; If you find this content useful, please </span> </span> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkOqS-RpybYK_m7Y938vtuQ" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> subscribe to our YouTube channel </a> <span style="display: initial;"> ! &#55357;&#56596;  </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h3> <span style="display: initial;"> Contact </span> </h3> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Think we did a good job with this 2022 C8 Corvette Clear Bra/Paint Protection Film Track Package?

We see this a lot – sometimes this protective film gets stuck, and people are in a rush to unpack a bunch of shipped cars at the dealer, and they scuff up the paint in the process. This helps us from the standpoint of iron and fallout removal (Iron X or similar) and clay bar, but not from a scuff and scratch perspective.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Many times new vehicles are transported in shipping containers and/or railroad systems (without the protective film), in which the iron from the rail/wheels gets flung and stuck in the paint, causing small rust spots as it is exposed to water (you might have seen small rust spots on lighter colored vehicles in the past). Fortunately, the C8 Corvettes are almost all exclusively shipped with a white vinyl protective cover, which does help with that situation. A lot of Teslas are at least partly shipped this way, but we have seen entire trailers filled with completely covered C8 Corvettes. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Wheels-Off PAckage </span> </h2> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> The client also asked us to remove/debadge the Stingray emblem and Corvette lettering on the back bumper. For this task, we used our steamer to loosen the adhesive (usually 3M VHB double sided automotive tape), placed painter’s tape around the area to avoid scratching, and carefully lifted the emblems. We then used Rapid Remover to loosen and remove the last of the residue. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> In addition, we did a wheels-off Ceramic Pro ceramic coating package. For our wheels-off packages, if the vehicle is done in-house (versus having a client just bring us a set of wheels), we also include the caliper coatings with a good layer of Ceramic Pro Wheel and Caliper, which can withstand really high temperatures. All of our packages include Ceramic Pro or SB3 Vortex on the wheel faces, but for the additional charge we remove and detail the entire wheel, ceramic coat the barrel with Ceramic Pro Wheel &amp; Caliper or SB3 Vortex, and back of the spokes, and also do the faces. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> American GLobal </span> </h2> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Whether our clients’ vehicles require a ton of work or not much, we are glad to always make it look as good as possible. For this task, we used an Americana Global (owned by Ceramic Pro) yellow heavy-cut foam pad paired with our Flex cordless polishers and 3D One. 3D One is a hybrid compound/polish that can be used on different types of pads to achieve different results. In many cases, a yellow foam pad with a heavy compound could leave some micro-scratching that then needs to be removed by polish. Paint types and properties, as well as pad/material combinations, present different challenges and results. In this instance, the yellow pad with 3D One did not leave behind any scratches. It was the perfect combination. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Sometimes, when we do paint correction and enhancement, the initial panel takes a longer time as we try various pad/polish/compound combinations. We do this because our intent is always to use the least aggressive method possible to correct the vehicle’s issues. Sometimes each panel requires a slightly different approach.

This vehicle looks nearly mint as if it came off the showroom floor! </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> The owner previously had a partial front clear bra/PPF/paint protection film package on the vehicle when it was purchased, which means only the front 1/3rd of the hood/fenders were previously covered by clear bra. He wanted more coverage, so we removed the hood and fender coverage and replaced it with full coverage. In addition, we placed clear bra/PPF/paint protection film on the leading edges of the A Pillar, B/C/D pillars, and leading roof edge. Lastly, we replaced the clear bra that was on the mirrors to give it more coverage and better cut lines. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Paint Correction </span> </h2> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> After the day of changing up the clear bra/paint protection film installation, we then conducted a paint enhancement, which removed almost any remaining light scratches, and installed SB3 Coatings Alpha and Omega ceramic coating combo, which gives the paint a deep, “Jolly Rancher” effect (deeper colors). </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> These SUVs, including the X3M, the X6M, and all of the lineup from BMW are all incredibly fast SUVs that really give sports cars a run for their money! The Competition variants are all slightly faster than the M-only variant. We almost purchased an X3M Competition but ended up with our BMW i8 instead (we were lured in by the sports car even though they’re not even remotely in the same class). </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Either way, we were happy to clear bra and ceramic coat this awesome SUV for this Austin-area client. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> &#55357;&#56596; If you find this content useful, please </span> </span> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkOqS-RpybYK_m7Y938vtuQ" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> subscribe to our YouTube channel </a> <span style="display: initial;"> ! &#55357;&#56596;  </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h3> <span style="display: initial;"> Material </span> </h3> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> For this vehicle, we used Legend Paint Protection Films (https://legendppf.com/).

We used SB3 Coatings Solo on year ceramic coating after thorough decontamination to ensure any dead spots from the previous coating were covered in a pinch, as this Killeen family was taking all three Jeeps on a short trip the next day. When we see them again in our shop, we will re-assess to see what other actions might be needed to extract the longest and best performance from the ceramic coating as possible.  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Many auto detailers claim that paint correction is ALWAYS required prior to ceramic coating, but this is simply not true. We always conduct good decontamination to ensure the ceramic coating will properly bond to the paint but paint correction/paint enhancement/auto detailing is always up to the client and how satisfied they are with their paint.

We teamed up with Detail Driven Transport out of Austin to ship this beast to use in the Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights area, and Bouley Detailing out of Houston (as we do for all big jobs).  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> For this car, it was a very difficult preparation process, as this is Porsche GT3RS spends a LOT of time on racetracks around the state, such as Circuit of the Americas. The older the car, or dirtier the car, the more difficult the installation is, because debris gets into so many crevices that you can’t always get it all out. On a light-colored vehicle (this Porsche is white, and you might remember the M8 Competition we did a few months ago was, as well), especially one that has seen track time (excessive dust, iron deposits/brake dust, rubber bits), it’s harder to keep debris out. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Installation Steps </span> </h2> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> First, we had to remove the clear bra/paint protection film/PPF that was already on the car. This clear bra did not cover the entire vehicle, and the owner wanted more coverage. We are not sure where it was installed previously.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Once we removed the clear bra, we began the lengthy preparation process. We were actually surprised that there were not more iron deposits. Most likely that is because the car did have SOME clear bra/paint protection film.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Over the next day and a half, we finished up the rest of the vehicle, installing the clear bra/paint protection film, SB3 Coatings Alpha, Vortex, and Optic and tucking and trimming (and heating) all of the edges. We definitely want out to hold up on track! </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Read more about clear bra/paint protection film: </span> </span> <a href="/clear-bra-copperas-cove-killeen-harker-heights-tx" style="display: initial;"> https://hhceramiccoatings.com/clear-bra/ </a> <span style="display: initial;">   </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Read more about ceramic coating: </span> </span> <a href="/ceramic-coating-in-killeen-tx" style="display: initial;"> https://hhceramiccoatings.com/ceramic-coating/ </a> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> &#55357;&#56596; If you find this Full Body Clear Bra &amp; Five Year Ceramic Coating Article useful, please </span> </span> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkOqS-RpybYK_m7Y938vtuQ" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> subscribe to our YouTube channel </a> <span style="display: initial;"> !&#55357;&#56596;  </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h3> <span style="display: initial;"> Contact </span> </h3> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Call/text us at 254.550.4142 or </span> </span> <a href="/harker-heights-ceramic-coatings-contact-us" style="display: initial;"> click on the contact page </a> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> to schedule a </span> </span> <a href="/ceramic-coating-in-killeen-tx" style="display: initial;"> ceramic coating </a> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> , </span> </span> <a href="/auto-detailing-copperas-cove-killeen-harker-heights" style="display: initial;"> auto detailing </a> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> , </span> </span> <a href="/paint-correction-before-ceramic-coating-in-killeen" style="display: initial;"> paint enhancement/paint correction </a> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> , or </span> </span> <a href="/clear-bra-copperas-cove-killeen-harker-heights-tx" style="display: initial;"> clear bra/paint protection </a> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> film appointment with us in the Copperas Cove/Killeen/Fort Hood/Harker Heights areas!

They are the epitome of EXCELLENT customer service and PROFESSIONALISM. They literally put their CUSTOMERS FIRST. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> I went in for a quotation on ceramic coating, something I have zero knowledge of.

Listen, they have their own YouTube channel with a plethora of information that literally breaks down everything you need to know about all their products. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> They’re extremely knowledgeable of their product and services, and they’re super transparent about the pro’s and con’s of each. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> My experience with them was not about the money to be made; but my satisfaction as a client!!!! They will not recommend something they do not see fit for you. I was able to get exactly what I wanted and it was well within my budget!!!! </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Did I say budget???

Unfortunately, he was told that ceramic coating would protect his vehicle against rock chips and scratches, which if you have seen our other videos, you know is not true. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> We spoke with him, at length, late at night, and had him drop off immediately.

The clear bra was on the vehicle previously, so we aren’t sure if it was 3M, Xpel, Ceramic Pro – Kavaca, Legend, STEK, or some other brand like Eastman/Llumar. However, he needed the rest of it removed and replaced, regardless. Additionally, the Aston Martin DB11 has a very large hood that is very difficult to install with just one piece. Many clear bra/paint protection film installers use three pieces. They then seam it together using a 60″ roll. However, the seams were too visible for this client for his tastes. We told him we would use a 72″ roll of STEK clear bra, and redo his hood in one piece. Some manufacturers simply do not make the 72″ roll or do not always have it in stock. This is why we maintain relationships with STEK, Legend, Ceramic Pro, and more.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> For this Paint Protection Film Install Aston Martin DB11, we teamed up with our partners at Bouley Detailing (Houston, Texas – we attended Global Protection Films training together in Houston after HHCC attended Ceramic Pro Kavaca training, and he went on after to Xpel training) as well as Detail Driven Transporters. Bouley Detailing traveled up to the Copperas Cove/Killeen/Fort Hood/Harker Heights area all the way from Houston to give us a hand, and Detail Driven Transporters helped transport the vehicle from Austin to Harker Heights.  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Killeen's Premiere Clear Bra Installer </span> </h2> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> In addition to redoing the front bumper (removing the old PPF and replacing with new clear bra) and hood, we also added clear bra to the rocker panels, roof, A-pillars, and top of the trunk. This essentially converted the clear bra package from a full front to a track package “plus.”  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> This completed the clear bra installation. We then polished some areas of the vehicle and installed a ceramic coating both on the exterior surfaces. We also applied ceramic coating to the interior to help with stains and other issues.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> After we finished the clear bra/paint protection film, paint enhancement/paint correction, and ceramic coating, Detail Driven Transporters took the car back to Austin and delivered to a very happy client! </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Read more about clear bra/paint protection film: https://hhceramiccoatings.com/clear-bra/  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Read more about ceramic coating: https://hhceramiccoatings.com/ceramic-coating/ <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> &#55357;&#56596; If you find this content useful, please </span> </span> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkOqS-RpybYK_m7Y938vtuQ" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> subscribe to our YouTube channel </a> <span style="display: initial;"> ! &#55357;&#56596;  </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h3> <span style="display: initial;"> Contact </span> </h3> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Want to talk about our SB3 Ceramic Coatings “Decon”?

We love to hear that people are finding out about us, so we appreciate the feedback from our clients. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> This 2011 Audi TT was discovered sitting in a garage for almost seven years and sold to the client. However, the vehicle was in fairly poor condition from a paint perspective. It had multiple sanding marks or damage from the furniture that was sitting on top of it, heavy swirls, and covered in water spots and other defects.  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> We spent an entire day conducting paint enhancement/paint correction (buffing, cut &amp; buff, polishing – known by many terms), followed by the installation of SB3 Coatings Omega Two Year ceramic coating on all the paint and plastic, SB3 Coatings Optic one year ceramic coating on the windshield, and SB3 Coatings Vortex on the wheels, a two year wheel-specific ceramic coating. As always, SB3 Coatings Omega is a big favorite to many installers and clients alike, as the coating creates a deeper “Jolly Rancher” effect on the paint, deepening/saturating the color. It’s a subtle change, but it’s definitely noticeable. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Client's Reaction </span> </h2> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> When the clients arrived to get their “like-new” car, they couldn’t believe the condition of the paint, and jokingly said they almost passed us up because they didn’t recognize the car! </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> That is the kind of feedback we absolutely love to hear from our Killeen-area residents!

Detail Garage sells Chemical Guys and provides discounts to enthusiasts for buying car care products. While we do not use Chemical Guys products, generally (we like to use Ceramic Pro/Americana Global, Meguiar’s, SB3, and P&amp;S, amongst others). </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> At the Detail Garage meet in Round Rock (they also have a Detail Garage – Austin location), we discussed some concerns the client had. This C2 Corvette Stingray had been repainted from its original color of silver, to black, but the auto body shop did not complete the final polishing work. This is fairly common with body shops, as they count on clients to not notice the swirls, holograms, and other paint defects that need to be fixed with a good paint enhancement/paint correction. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> For a paint correction &amp; ceramic coating on a 1965 chevy corvette, we knew were going to have to immediately resort to our SB3 hybrid wool pads and FLEX rotary polisher, followed up with our Lake Country HDO foam pads. This was not an easy job, as there were still some sanding marks in the paint from the body shop, as well as some fairly deep scratches and swirls. Sometimes, when cars get swirls that significant, the car can even appear to be nearly a different color (with black cars, prior to paint enhancement/paint correction, or when compared after paint enhancement but prior to ceramic coating, it can even appear to be gray in color). Sometimes this is not noticeable prior to the paint enhancement, and is only readily apparent to the naked eye when compared with before/after. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Fixing Defects </span> </h2> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> We need to fix these defects prior to installing a ceramic coating (we do not need to fix them, for the most part, before installing a clear bra/paint protection film), as the ceramic coating can, at times, amplify defects in the paint (ceramic coating does not fill in or hide scratches, unlike clear bra, no matter what you read). </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Most black vehicles or any vehicles that have deep swirls or scratches, typically require what we call a two or three-stage (step) paint correction/paint enhancement. The reason for this, is the compounds that are used with the machine polisher, especially a rotary polisher, will leave behind micro-marring. These tiny scratches are left behind after the larger, more visible scratches are removed. These defects are difficult to see in low light or reflection-only conditions, which is why it is important to look at your vehicle under specialized lighting to make the final judgment. These tiny scratches are removed by using a less abrasive polish/less harsh polishing pad, and are typically used with a dual-action/random orbit polisher rather than a rotary buffer, such as our FLEX 5″ rotary.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Please note that this client actually drove up from Austin to Killeen in order for us to do this work, so we are able to go mobile or take clients from all over to meet your needs!

I always had wanted the 850 growing up, and when the opportunity came from an Austin client that was willing to drive his 192 BMW 850i up to the Killeen / Copperas Cove / Harker Heights area, I was delighted at the opportunity to conduct an auto detail, one step paint enhancement, and five-year SB3 Coatings Alpha ceramic coating.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Considering the age of this vehicle, the paint was in fairly great shape, having the slightly updated two-stage (base/clear) paint instead of the single-stage paint found on some similar models. Initially, I was almost certain that it would need a two-step compound and polish paint enhancement/paint correction prior to installing the five-year ceramic coating, but the scratches were fairly light and were polished out with just one step.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Our thoughts </span> </h2> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> We are always a fan of charging the client as little as possible in order to deliver the same great product without overcharging for a service they don’t need or wouldn’t be happy with. Not only did this allow us to save the client some money, but it also shortened the time in which the job took to complete, and the client was able to hang out around Harker Heights while we completed it.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> After we finished conducting the paint correction/paint enhancement/polishing, we ceramic coated the exterior painted and plastic surfaces with SB3 Coatings Alpha five-year ceramic coating. After the BMW 850I Five-Year Ceramic Coating ,we then installed a two-year SB3 Coatings Vortex ceramic coating on the wheels, and a one-year SB3 Coatings Optic on the windshield.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Read more about clear bra/paint protection film: https://hhceramiccoatings.com/clear-bra/  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Read more about ceramic coating: https://hhceramiccoatings.com/ceramic-coating/ <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> &#55357;&#56596; If you find this content useful, please </span> </span> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkOqS-RpybYK_m7Y938vtuQ" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> subscribe to our YouTube channel </a> <span style="display: initial;"> ! &#55357;&#56596;  </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h3> <span style="display: initial;"> Contact </span> </h3> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Want to talk about our SB3 Ceramic Coatings “Decon”?

We use pH neutral soaps as they are the safest type of soap that works on your ceramic coating and clear bra/paint protection film/PPF. However, Ceramic coatings in particular can become “clogged” over time (reducing their hydrophobic properties), but pH neutral soap is the least likely to do that.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Every auto detail, ceramic coating, or clear bra/paint protection film/PPF job we do starts with a decontamination/wash, and potentially clay bar, iron and fallout remover, and/or paint correction/paint enhancement. We do this to ensure the paint is in the best possible condition before we start our process. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> For this, we use an MTM Hydro foam cannon, and we mix 2oz (60ml) of SB3 Coatings pH neutral soap per container of water. Ensure that you fill the foam cannon with water FIRST, or else the suds will overflow out of the container, making a quick job messy and take much longer to fill. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> INstructions: </span> </h2> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </h2> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> This is a very simple process, but these are the steps we use: </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> First, Fill the container with water and then 2oz of SB3 Coatings pH neutral soap. We have a measuring cup to measure out the soap, but you can eyeball it, or make a mark on the foam cannon container. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Secondly, Shake the container to mix the SB3 Coatings pH neutral soap and water.  </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Then, rinse the vehicle from top to bottom, side to side. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Adjust your spray pattern on your MTM Hydro foam cannon (or whatever brand you use). </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Foam the vehicle using SB3 Coatings pH neutral soap. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Hand-wash the vehicle using an Autofiber (or similar) soft microfiber wash mitt, using the minimal amount of pressure necessary. Again, wash top to bottom, side to side, so the suds from the SB3 Coatings soap does not carry dirt from the top down to an already-cleaned area. Do not use the same mitt you use on the paint, on the wheels. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Rinse the vehicle off, again going top to bottom, side to side.  </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Dry the vehicle using an Autofiber or similar drying towel, or let it air dry if you have an Adam’s Deionized Spotless water system like we do. <br/> </span> </li> </ol> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> &#55357;&#56596; If you find this content useful, please </span> </span> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkOqS-RpybYK_m7Y938vtuQ" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> subscribe to our YouTube channel </a> <span style="display: initial;"> ! &#55357;&#56596;  </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h3> <span style="display: initial;"> Contact </span> </h3> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Want to talk about our SB3 Ceramic Coatings “Decon”?

This brings up the aptly-named SB3 Coatings Maintain Ceramic Quick Detailer.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Unfortunately (for us too, trust me), we cannot just put a ceramic coating on our car, or clear bra, without having to auto detail it…just like anything else, we still need to wash, maintain, and take care of our vehicle. It definitely makes the process easier. The vehicle is not invincible with a ceramic coatings or clear bra.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> We typically like to see our clients once or twice per year to conduct a full decontamination wash. Typically with SB3 Coatings Decon (you can see our other video about this), re-apply a topper on the vehicle, such as SB3 Coatings Solo, and make sure everything is working as intended. Therefore, In between seeing us but after you receive your initial ceramic coating (or after the annual ceramic coating checkup), SB3 Coatings Maintain is a great consumer-available product to keep handy to use every three months. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> SB3 Coatings Maintain features: </span> </h2> <ul> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Ultra-Hydrophobic Coating  </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Excellent Weather &amp; UV Resistance </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Heavy Chemical Resistance </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Anti-Graffiti </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Corrosion &amp; Oxidation Resistant </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> High-Quality Gloss Finish </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Full Scratch Resistance </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Self-Cleaning Nanoceramic Formula </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Micro-marring &amp; Etching Protection </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> SB3 Coatings created SB3 Maintain to ensure the end-user could easily take care of their vehicle between appointments with us at Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings. This is also super helpful if you live outside of the Copperas Cove/Killeen/Fort Hood/Harker Heights areas, such as Austin, and it’s not as easy to come up here to see us, even if we were the ones that did your ceramic coating or clear bra/paint protection film/PPF work for you.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Other </span> </h2> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> The other great news is, it works not just on SB3 Coatings ceramic coatings, but any brand out there, making it a truly versatile auto detailing product! </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> However, the steps are quite simple: clean your vehicle like we have showed you in our aftercare series on YouTube. Apply the product in a light mist directly to the surface. Wipe with a plush microfiber towel. Switch to a second towel or different quadrant to buff off the remaining product. SB3 Coatings Maintain is THAT easy! <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> &#55357;&#56596; If you find this content useful, please </span> </span> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkOqS-RpybYK_m7Y938vtuQ" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> subscribe to our YouTube channel </a> <span style="display: initial;"> ! &#55357;&#56596;  </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h3> <span style="display: initial;"> Contact </span> </h3> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Want to talk about our SB3 Ceramic Coatings “Decon”?

There is conflicting information on how often people keep their vehicle at a time, but given that many finance options, including leases, are in that time frame, we have noticed many people change out their car after about three years.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> SB3 Coatings Thirty3 three year ceramic coating is a great fit for that time frame, and we often will charge a marginal upgrade fee to go from two to three years if that seems most appropriate for the client and their situation. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Like all of SB3 Coatings’ offerings, Thirty3 three year ceramic coating is easy to apply, and easy to wipe off. It doesn’t have the same difficulty that you see with many companies that cause rags to catch in the ceramic coating, sometimes even leaving behind fibers when leveling. Thirty3, and for that matter, most all of SB3 Coatings’ choices in ceramic coatings, are almost if not as easy as SB3 Coatings Solo. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> You may hear that to install a ceramic coating, you have to conduct paint correction/paint enhancement prior to install. This is not true at all – at a bare minimum, however, you should use SB3 Coatings Ready panel prep spray, and SB3 Coatings Decon Iron &amp; Fallout Remover (as necessary). This ensures that the ceramic coating is bonding to the paint, and not hindered by contaminants, oils, waxes, or other things. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Installation Instructions </span> </h2> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Step one: prepare the surface for coating, either by conducting a full auto detail with clay bar, iron and fallout remover, paint correction/paint enhancement, and panel prep spray, or, at a minimum, wash/dry/panel prep spray (we recommend using SB3 Coatings pH Neutral Soap in a foam cannon &amp; SB3 Decon). </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Step two: load the applicator (we use Autofiber Saver applicators and Quadrant Wipe towels for leveling) a little more heavily on the first application, working from a center section of a panel outwards, ensuring optimal coverage. Do not be concerned about the direction of application, or cross-hatching the application of the ceramic coating – just ensure that you have coverage on all areas. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Step three: wait approximately two minutes to level the product, adjusting for humidity/heat in your conditions. Watching for a rainbow in worse conditions is a good indication of the ceramic coating being ready to be leveled. Use the two minute window or the rainbow, whichever comes first, again adjusted for your situation. </span> </li> </ol> <p> <span style="display: initial;">   </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Tip: if you get a high spot that you notice after a couple panels that does not seem to wipe off, you can attempt to put the ceramic coating back on top of that spot, wait, and level. If it is close enough to the original application, it should allow you to repeat the process successfully. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> &#55357;&#56596; If you find this content useful, please </span> </span> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkOqS-RpybYK_m7Y938vtuQ" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> subscribe to our YouTube channel </a> <span style="display: initial;"> ! &#55357;&#56596;  </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h3> <span style="display: initial;"> Contact </span> </h3> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Want to talk about our SB3 Ceramic Coatings “Decon”?

If you catch it immediately, and I mean IMMEDIATELY in the Texas sun, you can usually get them off pretty easily with either vinegar or even with water. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> After any real amount of time, though, shy of polishing the paint, no real auto detail will seem to get them out. Having clear bra/paint protection film/PPF or ceramic coating does NOT make the vehicle immune to water spots.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> In comes SB3 Coatings Destroy, which is a chemical used to break down leftover Total Dissolved Solids (TDS, measured in parts per million), and clean up those pesky water spots.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> How do water spots happen in the first place? Unfiltered (to include the Brita-type filters, which don’t typically filter out much if any TDS) water contains a lot of minerals. When this water is left on the paint to dry, the water evaporates in the sun, and the minerals remain. Over time, they can become completely etched in. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Typically we see waterspots when: </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> – A vehicle is hit by sprinkler systems, which is usually unfiltered water </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> – A car is left to air dry after rinsing off with tap water or using an automatic car wash (which we hope none of you are using!) </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> – A vehicle is washed in direct sunlight when the water evaporates faster than the auto detailer (probably you!) can keep up with the washing/drying </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> How can we prevent waterspots? </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> – Either adjust, pay to have someone adjust, or buy sprinkler heads that don’t hit your vehicles (sometimes harder than it seems, especially if it’s windy) </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> – Never let your car air dry…if the vehicle is drying during a detail too fast, do one panel at a time </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> – Try to avoid washing anything in direct sunlight, especially in Central Texas </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Installation Instructions </span> </h2> <h2> <br/> </h2> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> How to use SB3 Coatings Destroy to remove waterspots: </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> – Do not use in the sun </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> – Please Do not use on raw metal/raw aluminum </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> – Do not let it dry/sit on glass </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> – Always rinse off after finishing </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Clean the affected area. We don’t want to rub in waterspots with dirt on the paint, which will scratch it and require a paint enhancement/paint correction to fix. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Apply a small amount of SB3 Coatings Destroy onto a clean microfiber, and using as gentle pressure as possible, rub the affected area. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Wipe off excess product. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Rinse off the affected area once you are satisfied.  </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Dry the affected area. </span> </li> </ol> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Never use SB3 Coatings Destroy as your go-to way to fix waterspots. Your first inclination should always be to fix the situation causing the water spots first, and use this only if necessary. Remember, that while safe for your paint and clear bra, with any chemical of this nature, you need to understand that it could shorten the longevity of the ceramic coating or clear bra if used excessively. </span> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> &#55357;&#56596; If you find this content useful, please </span> </span> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkOqS-RpybYK_m7Y938vtuQ" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> subscribe to our YouTube channel </a> <span style="display: initial;"> ! &#55357;&#56596;  </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h3> <span style="display: initial;"> Contact </span> </h3> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Want to talk about our SB3 Ceramic Coatings “Decon”?

This is probably our most popular ceramic coating duration that we offer. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Many people who are looking for ceramic coating are keeping their vehicles for only 3-4 years, even though the national average is somewhere around 11-12 years of age for vehicles that are on the road. There is conflicting information on how often people keep their vehicle at a time, but given that many finance options, including leases, are in that time frame, we have noticed many people change out their car after about three to five years. A five year ceramic coating generally protects the vehicle for the length of many finance options, just about every lease option, and really covers most lengths that owners keep cars.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> SB3 Coatings Alpha five year ceramic coating is a great fit for that time frame, and we often will charge a marginal upgrade fee to add a layer of Omega on top (warrantied for five years, but that extra duration should push to seven years of ceramic coating, plus add that additional deep shine) if that seems most appropriate for the client and their situation. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Like all of SB3 Coatings’ offerings, Alpha five year ceramic coating is easy to apply, and easy to wipe off. It doesn’t have the same difficulty that you see with many companies that cause rags to catch in the ceramic coating, sometimes even leaving behind fibers when leveling. Alpha, and for that matter, most all of SB3 Coatings’ choices in ceramic coatings, are almost if not as easy as SB3 Coatings Solo. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> You may hear that to install a ceramic coating, you have to conduct paint correction/paint enhancement prior to install. This is not true at all – at a bare minimum, however, you should use SB3 Coatings Ready panel prep spray, and SB3 Coatings Decon Iron &amp; Fallout Remover (as necessary). This ensures that the ceramic coating is bonding to the paint, and not hindered by contaminants, oils, waxes, or other things. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Installation Instructions </span> </h2> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Step one: prepare the surface for coating, either by conducting a full auto detail with clay bar, iron and fallout remover, paint correction/paint enhancement, and panel prep spray, or, at a minimum, wash/dry/panel prep spray (we recommend using SB3 Coatings pH Neutral Soap in a foam cannon &amp; SB3 Decon). </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Step two: load the applicator (we use Autofiber Saver applicators and Quadrant Wipe towels for leveling) a little more heavily on the first application, working from a center section of a panel outwards, ensuring optimal coverage. Do not be concerned about the direction of application, or cross-hatching the application of the ceramic coating – just ensure that you have coverage on all areas. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Step three: wait approximately two minutes to level the product, adjusting for humidity/heat in your conditions. Watching for a rainbow in worse conditions is a good indication of the ceramic coating being ready to be leveled. Use the two minute window or the rainbow, whichever comes first, again adjusted for your situation. </span> </li> </ol> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Tip: if you get a high spot that you notice after a couple panels that does not seem to wipe off, you can attempt to put the ceramic coating back on top of that spot, wait, and level. If it is close enough to the original application, it should allow you to repeat the process successfully. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> &#55357;&#56596; If you find this content useful, please </span> </span> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkOqS-RpybYK_m7Y938vtuQ" style="display: initial;" target="_blank"> subscribe to our YouTube channel! </a> <span style="display: initial;"> &#55357;&#56596;  </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h3> <span style="display: initial;"> Contact </span> </h3> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Call/text us at 254.550.4142 or </span> </span> <a href="/harker-heights-ceramic-coatings-contact-us" style="display: initial;"> click on the contact page </a> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> to schedule a </span> </span> <a href="/ceramic-coating-in-killeen-tx" style="display: initial;"> ceramic coating </a> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> , </span> </span> <a href="/auto-detailing-copperas-cove-killeen-harker-heights" style="display: initial;"> auto detailing </a> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> , </span> </span> <a href="/paint-correction-before-ceramic-coating-in-killeen" style="display: initial;"> paint enhancement/paint correction </a> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> , or </span> </span> <a href="/clear-bra-copperas-cove-killeen-harker-heights-tx" style="display: initial;"> clear bra/paint protection </a> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> film appointment with us in the Copperas Cove/Killeen/Fort Hood/Harker Heights areas!

SB3 Coatings Fiber, like Hyde, Marine, and Optic, is a two layer process to achieve the best results. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> The important thing to note is that the first layer and second layer of SB3 Coatings Fiber can be applied immediately after one another – the two layer system for this ceramic coating is to allow you to massage in the first layer to get between the fibers, and the second we will cure on top. The longer the fibers of your surface, the more massaging you should do on the first layer of ceramic coating. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Installation Instructions </span> </h2> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Like any SB3 Coatings offering, we want to ensure the surface is clean and dry prior to applying the ceramic coating.

We have washed our top well, before, but noticed some dust still remains after it dries. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Apply the first layer of SB3 Coatings Fiber one year ceramic coating, and massage in with your hand (using gloves), to work the ceramic coating between the fibers.  </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Immediately apply the second layer of SB3 Coatings Fiber one year ceramic coating, and enjoy!! </span> </li> </ol> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> &#55357;&#56596; If you find this content useful, please </span> </span> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkOqS-RpybYK_m7Y938vtuQ" style="display: initial;" target="_blank"> subscribe to our YouTube channel! </a> <span style="display: initial;"> &#55357;&#56596;  </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h3> <span style="display: initial;"> Contact </span> </h3> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Call/text us at 254.550.4142 or </span> </span> <a href="/harker-heights-ceramic-coatings-contact-us" style="display: initial;"> click on the contact page </a> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> to schedule a </span> </span> <a href="/ceramic-coating-in-killeen-tx" style="display: initial;"> ceramic coating </a> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> , </span> </span> <a href="/auto-detailing-copperas-cove-killeen-harker-heights" style="display: initial;"> auto detailing </a> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> , </span> </span> <a href="/paint-correction-before-ceramic-coating-in-killeen" style="display: initial;"> paint enhancement/paint correction </a> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> , or </span> </span> <a href="/clear-bra-copperas-cove-killeen-harker-heights-tx" style="display: initial;"> clear bra/paint protection </a> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> film appointment with us in the Copperas Cove/Killeen/Fort Hood/Harker Heights areas!

SB3 Coatings Optic one year ceramic coating is limited typically because of the friction caused by the vehicle’s wiper blades. Remember from our other videos that the only way to remove a ceramic coating is to polish or rub it off (that’s why we can’t take our vehicles through automatic car washes in Killeen, after we install clear bra/paint protection film, or ceramic coating). </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> SB3 Coatings Optic one year ceramic coating is one of the few multi-layer ceramic coatings SB3 offers, with SB3 Coatings Marine, Hyde, and Fiber being some other ones that require two or more layers of the same coating.  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Installation Instructions </span> </h2> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Here are the instructions for applying SB3 Coatings Optic one year glass ceramic coating: </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Clean or prepare the surface that you will be applying SB3 Coatings Optic to.

We use SB3 Coatings Hyde on “traditional” leather, to include vegan leather and other similar surfaces such as what you find in many Teslas.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> In our BMW i8 we have a darker Terra Brown leather that was an option at the time, but it is coupled with a bit of a pain-in-the-butt leather – a cream, of sorts. So we at HHCC know the pain of Tesla owners that have the white vegan leather in their cars, which are more prone to blue jean transfer, staining, dirt, you name it. A simple Google search will show Model S/3/X/Y owners listing the staining of the white vegan leather as a huge concern, even though the white Tesla interior looks so great (when clean). </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Of note, if you have suede or Alcantara leather, we would opt to use SB3 Coatings Fiber, mainly because Fiber is designed for fibrous (surprise!) materials such as carpet, suede, etc. Whereas SB3 Coatings Hyde is more for that “traditional” “flat” leather that doesn’t have the individual fibers. If you paid for an interior ceramic coating from HHCC, we would mix and match to suit your individual needs without charging you additional for your ceramic coating package. Meaning, we would mix and match SB3 Coatings Trim, Fiber, Hyde, and whatever else was needed without additional charge (even if, say, the middle of your seat is suede and the sides are traditional leather). </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Installation Instructions </span> </h2> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Here are the instructions (very simple to use SB3 Coatings Hyde ceramic coating): </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Just like anything else, we want to ensure the surface is clean prior to installing our ceramic coating (or clear bra/paint protection film/PPF for that matter). In most cases, you can likely use a damp microfiber that will not bleed onto the surface (especially important, again, if you have that Tesla white vegan leather or the leather we have in our BMW i8). If the surface is heavily soiled, we suggest first using P&amp;S Xpress Interior Cleaner, which is what we use at our shop, followed by a damp microfiber.  </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Load your microfiber applicator sponge (we use Autofiber Saver Applicators), and apply SB3 Coatings Hyde evenly to the surface. You should definitely notice a “wet” appearance if the leather is dark enough, or even on the white leather, you should notice if you look in the right light. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Wait for 60 seconds, and then level/wipe SB3 Coatings Hyde from the surface using a microfiber towel (again, we use Autofiber Korean Plush Towels, typically). You might feel a SLIGHT tug/sticky feeling on the first wipe, which is perfectly normal. This is a VERY minor amount, if any at all. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Wait for 60 MINUTES, and then repeat steps 2 and 3. <br/> </span> </li> </ol> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> &#55357;&#56596; If you find this content useful, please </span> </span> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkOqS-RpybYK_m7Y938vtuQ" style="display: initial;" target="_blank"> subscribe to our YouTube channel! </a> <span style="display: initial;"> &#55357;&#56596;  </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h3> <span style="display: initial;"> Contact </span> </h3> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Call/text us at 254.550.4142 or </span> </span> <a href="/harker-heights-ceramic-coatings-contact-us" style="display: initial;"> click on the contact page </a> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> to schedule a </span> </span> <a href="/ceramic-coating-in-killeen-tx" style="display: initial;"> ceramic coating </a> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> , </span> </span> <a href="/auto-detailing-copperas-cove-killeen-harker-heights" style="display: initial;"> auto detailing </a> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> , </span> </span> <a href="/paint-correction-before-ceramic-coating-in-killeen" style="display: initial;"> paint enhancement/paint correction </a> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> , or </span> </span> <a href="/clear-bra-copperas-cove-killeen-harker-heights-tx" style="display: initial;"> clear bra/paint protection </a> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> film appointment with us in the Copperas Cove/Killeen/Fort Hood/Harker Heights areas!

Look no further than SB3 coatings “Tuxx” Tire &amp; Trim Dressing. We use SB3 Coatings Tuxx on all of our tires, and we like it because we can dilute it three ways depending upon what the client wants (shiny, medium shine, or matte/natural). </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> We prefer the matte/natural finish on our BMW i8, as we have never been a fan of really shiny tires. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> The key to any tire dressing is to clean the tire first. Many times we neglect to clean our tires as owners more than we should, and the dark color of the tire often hides that fact. If we don’t clean the tires themsleves, we are just putting tire dressing onto dirt and grime, and so it doesn’t last very long at all. Certainly not as long as we wish it did, anyhow. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> So what we need to do, is scrub the tire first. Even scrubbing the tire with a bristled brush when you are using SB3 Coatings pH neutral soap will help, but you can use wheel and tire cleaner, all-purpose cleaner (APC), degreaser, or even Dawn dish soap to clean it. If you are using anything like a wheel and tire cleaner, or SB3 Coatings Natural (APC), do NOT let it dry on paint (remember most wheels are painted), and do NOT use it in direct sunlight. Work one wheel at a time. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> We have found good results diluting SB3 Coatings Natural APC one part APC concentrate to four parts water for the tires. You don’t have to clean the tires every single time you wash the car, only as you notice they start to build up grime again, or if they start turning that reddish color. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> We use a medium bristle brush we found, and spray with SB3 Coatings Natural APC, and agitate. We then rinse and repeat until the suds are mainly white instead of dirty. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Once you have the tire and wheel clean and dry, dilute your Tuxx Tire &amp; Trim Dressing to whatever desired shine you want, using Tuxx straight for the greatest shine, 1:1 for a medium gloss, and 1:3 for a matte/natural look. We love the natural look as we mentioned above, so 1:3 is our go-to, and has the added benefit of making the product last that much longer, making it an even better bang for your buck. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h3> <span style="display: initial;"> Contact </span> </h3> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Call/text us at 254.550.4142 or </span> </span> <a href="/harker-heights-ceramic-coatings-contact-us#quoteform" style="display: initial;"> click on the contact page </a> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> to schedule a </span> </span> <a href="/ceramic-coating-in-killeen-tx" style="display: initial;"> ceramic coating </a> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> , </span> </span> <a href="/auto-detailing-copperas-cove-killeen-harker-heights" style="display: initial;"> auto detailing </a> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> , </span> </span> <a href="/paint-correction-before-ceramic-coating-in-killeen" style="display: initial;"> paint enhancement/paint correction </a> <span style="display: initial;"> , or clear bra/paint protection film appointment with us in the Copperas Cove/Killeen/Fort Hood/Harker Heights areas!

Do not be concerned about the direction of application, or cross-hatching the application of the ceramic coating – just ensure that you have coverage on all areas. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Step three: wait approximately one minute to level the product, adjusting for humidity/heat in your conditions. Watching for a rainbow in worse conditions is a good indication of the ceramic coating being ready to be leveled. Use the one minute window or the rainbow, whichever comes first, again adjusted for your situation. </span> </li> </ol> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Tip: if you get a high spot that you notice after a couple panels that does not seem to wipe off, you can attempt to put the ceramic coating back on top of that spot, wait, and level. If it is close enough to the original application, it should allow you to repeat the process successfully. You can also use a little bit of SB3 Coatings Flyover (six-month ceramic coating), which is a water-based product that contains silica.  </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> &#55357;&#56596; If you find this content useful, please </span> </span> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkOqS-RpybYK_m7Y938vtuQ" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> subscribe to our YouTube channel! </a> <span style="display: initial;"> &#55357;&#56596;  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> #paintcorrection #ceramiccoating #autodetailing </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h3> <span style="display: unset;"> Contact </span> </h3> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: unset;"> <span style="display: unset;"> Call/text us at 254.550.4142 or </span> </span> <a href="/harker-heights-ceramic-coatings-contact-us#quoteform" style="display: unset;"> click on the contact page </a> <span style="display: unset;"> <span style="display: unset;"> to schedule a </span> </span> <a href="/ceramic-coating-in-killeen-tx#OurCeramicCoatingPackages" style="display: unset;"> ceramic coating </a> <span style="display: unset;"> <span style="display: unset;"> , </span> </span> <a href="/auto-detailing-copperas-cove-killeen-harker-heights#CompleteVehicleDetailingSolution" style="display: unset;"> auto detailing </a> <span style="display: unset;"> <span style="display: unset;"> , </span> </span> <a href="/paint-correction-before-ceramic-coating-in-killeen#OurPaintCorrectionPackages" style="display: unset;"> paint enhancement/paint correction </a> <span style="display: unset;"> <span style="display: unset;"> , or </span> </span> <a href="/clear-bra-copperas-cove-killeen-harker-heights-tx#OurAutobahnPaintProtectionFilmPackages" style="display: unset;"> clear bra/paint protection </a> <span style="display: unset;"> <span style="display: unset;"> film appointment with us in the Copperas Cove/Killeen/Fort Hood/Harker Heights areas!

SB3 Ceramic Coating Trim Package Explanation, Instructions, & Demonstration – Killeen Tx 2022-07-07T13:14:00Z 2022-07-07T13:14:00Z <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> In this video we are going to talk about SB3 ceramic coating trim. A two-year trim package that restores shine and preserves plastic and trim against UV rays. SB3 Coatings have many ceramic coating options that are similar or superior to other major ceramic coating brands. Some examples being Ceramic Pro, Gtechniq, Gyeon, Undrdog, IGL, and many more. However, just remember that the best brand for your application is not always the one with the biggest advertising budget. You might see a ton of ads in the Copperas Cove/Killeen/Fort Hood/Harker Heights areas targeting you. Especially after you open this page (Facebook may start showing you ads for SB3 or Ceramic Pro, just because we mentioned it – haha).  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> In this video we used an automatic pump sprayer from MakeMoneyLLC/MAO Pod Station/Auto Film Mastery. Also mentioned is a swab for crevices.

For this, we want to use something that is pH balanced soap/foam/waterless wash to clean it, but then SB3 Ready or similar panel prep solvent-based product to ensure the surface is free of oils and other residue. In a pinch, you might be able to find Chemical Guys Wipeout (not to be confused with American Detailer Garage Wipeout. This is a rinseless/waterless wash) locally.  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> After You Clean The Surface </span> </h2> <h2> <br/> </h2> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> After you clean the surface you plan to restore using SB3 Trim, it’s a very simple process for this ceramic coating. Apply SB3 Trim to the pad generously. Then wipe onto the surface in a cross-hatch pattern, ensuring complete coverage. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Then, let the product either dry naturally (using sunlight or heat lamps), or by leveling it with a detailing towel, such as an Autofiber towel that you see us use in most videos.  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> *Note: SB3 Coatings are great coatings, and are similar to other offerings we have had in the past. The SB3 Solo is similar to Ceramic Pro Sport (although SB3 Solo has a one year warranty whereas Ceramic Pro Sport has a six month warranty). SB3 Vortex is similar to Ceramic Pro Wheel &amp; Caliper or Ceramic Pro 9H (Ceramic Pro 9H for glossy black or matte wheels and Ceramic Pro Wheel &amp; Caliper for other types). SB3 Optic is similar to Ceramic Pro Glass. Of course, we have access to many brands of ceramic coatings.

PPF film stops the front of your vehicle from being destroyed by road damage and debris. The most clear bra/PPF film, including ours, is self-healing. That means, the film will heal minor swirls and scuffs with heat (from the Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights sun, or hot water/hot air). PPF film also fills in already existing minor swirls. This is because the adhesive will conform to those swirls at a microscopic level, but the film is thick enough not to distort appearance when filling in. There are what we call “fashion PPF films,” which include colors, patterns, and more. Some examples are carbon fiber, prism, matte, and more. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> Clear bra/PPF film - why you should install right away! </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> You’re going to think this is a sales pitch, but it isn’t – the answer is to install PPF film “immediately.”  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> The short answer is, that automotive paints are thinner than ever, with some auto detailers refusing to even polish or compound (paint correct / paint enhance) some new cars due to the thickness from the factory. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Anecdotally, we have had some Tesla owners take delivery of their new Tesla Model Y at the Austin dealership, drive it up to us in Harker Heights, or home to Killeen/Copperas Cove, and it already is covered in chips. Even before they could get PPF film installed. Especially when we are talking about sports cars such as the C8 Corvette or a BMW M8 Competition we did – they already had a significant amount of chips even though they still had temp tags on the car. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> PPF film install - we have waited too long, ourselves! </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> How could a clear bra/paint protection film/PPF film shop such as Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings manage to get rock chips before we could install? On our 2022 Mazda CX5 Turbo Signature, we actually got rock chips before our very first tank of gas. We purchased our Mazda out of town, and before we could install PPF film, a dump truck dumped rock chips all over us in the Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights area. Jeez! </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> You can see our PPF film install process video on our CX5 in the video or  </span> <a href="https://hhceramiccoatings.com/2022-mazda-cx5-turbo-signature-full-body-clear-bra-seven-year-ceramic-coating-serving-the-killeen-area/" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> click here </a> <span style="display: initial;">  to see the blog article. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> What happens when PPF film gets installed over existing rock chips? </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> Because clear bra/PPF film is 8mil thick, approximately 3x as thick as vinyl wrap – installing it over a small indented area, such as a rock chip, is very difficult. Clear bra/paint protection film is too thick to conform to small areas such as rock chips. It may not be as obvious on some lighter-colored vehicles, such as silver or white. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> However, the darker the vehicle, the more obvious it becomes. Rock chips under PPF film appear as white specs or debris, and on something like our Mazda CX5, the front can look bad under the film. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> In about 70% of cases, we can fill the rock chip with color-matched crayon to lessen the white spec look under the PPF film. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> How old of a vehicle can get clear bra/PPF/paint protection film in Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights? </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> We can’t determine what age a vehicle can be before clear bra/PPF film won’t look right on your vehicle. However, we can say that the installation can be typically compromised if you wait more than a few weeks. Unfortunately, new vehicles have such thin paint, that even driving home from the dealership can be an issue. We have installed PPF film on cars as old as 2014, but turned away cars that are only a year old. It all depends on what mileage and type of mileage they have, and sometimes – dumb luck. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> We want to protect the environment, but there are other effects. </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> What does the environment have to do with why you need to install PPF film right away? I’m going to tell you! </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Did you know that the historically frail Apple charging cables result from environmental protesting? In 2009, Greenpeace lobbied for “Green My Apple” – they asked Apple to remove PVC from their charging cables. Apple obliged but now their cables are not as durable. This is why Apple’s cables don’t survive any abuse, while third-party companies’ cables do. The lobbying to remove PVC created an entirely new market for third-party accessory makers that might not have existed to the extent that they do today had Greenpeace been unsuccessful in pushing for the removal of PVC. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Does that mean that PPF film is frail, also? No, that’s not at all my point. Keep reading for more info. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> Ok, so what's your point? </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> The auto paint industry is the same. As a result of lobbying and regulation outlawing certain amounts of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs), automotive paint has switched from solvent-based paint to water-based (or waterborne) paint. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> The benefits of water-based over solvent-based paint are: </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> – Better for the environment, according to the EPA </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> – Healthier to apply to those in the industry due to fewer airborne toxins </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> – New products </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> – Cleaner and brighter than solvent-based paints </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> However, the one “benefit” for the automotive industry is a negative for our auto detailing industry and relates to clear bra/PPF film, and paint protection/paint enhancement: </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> “Less Clearcoat Needed. – For multiple hues and striping, waterborne paint has an advantage when it comes to spraying due to a thinner application. The different layers take less clear coat to even out the surface.” </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> This means paint is thinner, and therefore chips easier and faster. This is why we need to install PPF film RIGHT AWAY! <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> What does that mean for us?  </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> That means that while we are making things healthier for those working with automotive paints and doing better for the environment, we are making clear bra/PPF film an absolute necessity for new cars. </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> The paint is so thin that there is very little rock chip protection. This goes for sports cars along the rocker panels, and where the tires kick up rocks, it goes for just about any forward-facing surface of any vehicle, regardless of sportiness. With Tesla, many owners choose to clear bra / PPF film their entire car because the paint is notoriously thin (above and beyond the issues with water-based paint mentioned above). </span> </p> </div> When is the best time for PPF?

We simply couldn’t find anything we liked, anywhere nearby, that was zoned for auto detailing/paint correction/clear bra/ceramic coating type services, or anything that was reasonably priced.

Many of the nicer areas are not zoned for this type of building without buying new land and building from the ground up, which we didn’t want to do.

We are also members of several professional clear bra/PPF installer groups, to include paint protection film disassembly groups (where we discuss how to safely remove pieces of vehicles such as badges or emblems to create the cleanest clear bra installations). </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> We are also members of the professional detailing community, where we moderate topics in the largest Facebook group for professional detailers, Detailing for Money (we are also members of a similar group called PPF/Tint for Money). </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> Lastly, we remain in close contact with our mentors for clear bra and paint correction/paint enhancement, and maintain great relationships with the product developers for the ceramic coating products we use from SB3, System X, and Ceramic Pro. We consult with former product designers from Meguiar’s, who advise on how to best tackle paint correction/paint enhancement problems. </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> See Us In Action </span> </h2> </div> Take your career to the next level with Harker Heights Ceramic Coating's continuing education opportunities.

We later traveled to San Diego, California from Killeen to certify at Ceramic Pro Carlsbad in Paint Protection Film (Clear Bra). For some time we were only using Ceramic Pro ceramic coatings and Ceramic Pro Kavaca clear bra/PPF. Ceramic Pro Kavaca makes a self-healing, ceramic-infused, and matte finish clear bra. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> We then attended the online basic and advanced training from Auto Film Mastery for clear bra installs, followed by two more clear bra/paint protection film seminars over the next few months in Houston, Texas (again with Auto Film Mastery/Auto Film Specialists). Our clear bra mentor, Mike Norng, runs these training events, and we purchase a lot of tools from makemoneyllc.com, where Mike pioneers various clear bra and tint installation tools.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Around the same time, we attended a two day certification course with Global Films, another clear bra/paint protection film provider. They also provide window tint. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> We also began using Legend paint protection film, which we used while in training at Auto Film Mastery. Legend makes an amazing clear bra that we love working with. Legend was born from some of the former makers of Suntek film, which was later purchased by Eastman/Llumar. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Not satisfied stopping there, we also became certified with STEK films, which is the industry standard for fashion paint protection films (carbon fiber, Damascus, color-change, etc). You may have seen us installing STEK high gloss carbon fiber clear bra on our own BMW i8. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> We have also reached out to Xpel, which is based in San Antonio, Texas, to inquire about taking their training and becoming certified to use their films, as well. We love to have options for our clients, and we don’t tie ourselves to one brand at a time. Each brand offers many opportunities, and you may find that Xpel has 72″ clear film in stock, when perhaps STEK is out of stock on the same clear bra. Xpel utilizes an amazing software program, but they also prefer a little more exclusivity with their brand, similar to Ceramic Pro Kavaca. We prefer to stock and work with various types of paint protection films, just in case a client has a preference. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> In our experience, however, most clients (and most installers) cannot tell the difference between clear bra manufacturers once installed on the vehicle. The primary difference is in the installation and adhesive recipes of the clear bra, more so than the overall end result and appearance. This of course only applies to major brands, which all carry 10 or more years of warranty (with Ceramic Pro offering a 12 year warranty). </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> For ceramic coatings, we have access to Ceramic Pro, Sb3, System X, R1, and many others.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Ultimately, we try to choose the best clear bra and the best ceramic coating for our clients, and we take care of any warranty issues. We aren’t going anywhere, so you can rest assured that you will never have to file a single warranty claim yourself. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> And in our experience, once the product is on and performing because we only use the best ceramic coatings and clear bra, there are seldom any issues. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> See Us In Action </span> </h2> </div> Learn about the certifications held by Harker Heights Ceramic Coating.

We are competitively priced for several reasons: </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;">   </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> We do not have a clear bra or ceramic coating facility lease </span> <span style="display: initial;"> . Properties and rent in our area has soared dramatically in the last several years, but since we are attached to our home, our “lease” on our auto detailing facility is really our home mortgage, which we do not need (or want) to pass on to clients.  </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Our utilities are minimal. </span> <span style="display: initial;">  Water in general is an inexpensive utility as is, but we do not do a lot of traditional car washing, or auto detailing type work. Primarily, we wash cars in preparation for clear bra/paint protection film, ceramic coating, and/or paint correction/paint enhancement. </span> </li> </ol> <p> <span style="display: initial;">   </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> We do not produce excessive trash, with the majority of our trash coming from clear bra film containers and the like, which largely do not exceed what a large family might produce in a house (recall that we are only doing clear bra one vehicle at a time, and we can only work on several vehicles per week, with trash being picked up twice per week – so no need for a commercial dumpster). We only have a $5/month charge for an additional garbage can, but since Harker Heights does not offer bulk pickup of Amazon and similar boxes, we would have gotten this anyhow. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;">   </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> The largest utilities expense we have is our solar panels, which power the entire house, and would have been purchased anyhow. We have 55 panels in total, with a system larger than 22kW. This is a massive system that produces between 120 and 130 kWh per DAY in the summer. On average, we generate almost 4000kWh of renewable energy per month, exceeding our total usage.  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;">   </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> We have no employees. </span> <span style="display: initial;">  We are owner-operated at Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings, and have no employees, no payroll, no employee insurance, taxes, or workman’s compensation expenses. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> We have no need for health insurance.  </span> <span style="display: initial;"> We are a veteran-owned business, with Fort Hood/Killeen being our last duty station. We have nearly 22 years in the military, and our healthcare coverage does not need to be provided by the business. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> We don’t meet the minimum threshold for state franchise tax. </span> <span style="display: initial;">  Our services in the state of Texas are non-taxable (and we do not sell physical products, so there is no sales tax there), and because we are such a small operation, we do not exceed the state minimum revenue threshold of $1.23 million annually. In our line of work, it would be very difficult with no employees and a single-car bay to ever exceed this state tax threshold. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> <span>  </span> Our equipment lasts longer. </span> <span style="display: initial;">  Because we are the only ones using our equipment, it doesn’t get beat up, and because we are doing only one vehicle at a time, even if we are using it every day, it doesn’t see as much use as a shop where multiple people are using multiple pieces of equipment every day at the same time. </span> </li> </ol> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> See Us In Action </span> </h2> </div> Experience premium services at budget-friendly rates with Harker Heights Ceramic Coating.

We can assure you that this is never the case with Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings. Of course, we aren’t infallible humans, but we wipe panels down with what is called a surface prep spray or surface prep solvent. This is a more effective method than using isopropyl alcohol (IPA) that you see recommended online. Surface prep spray, such as what we use from Americana Global or Meguiar’s M122, is specifically designed to remove these particles prior to applying a ceramic coating to ensure the surface is optimal.  </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> The most likely reason rock chips are more visible after a polish is really the removal of an optical illusion. With scratches, scuffs, and other imperfections out of the way, the only thing remaining for your eye to focus on are rock chips and other permanent damage (gouge marks, etc). In 15 years we have never caused damage or increased the size of a rock chip by polishing over it. It’s just not common. Typically, we find that clients (and ourselves) notice imperfections more when the surrounding areas are improved. For the occasional larger chip, this can be an easy fix of some touch-up paint later on. However, when the bumper is what we call “sandblasted,” or tons of tiny little chips mixed in with bigger chips, it’s going to be nearly impossible to fix without repainting the panel. You can see an example of this in one of our clear bra videos about when the best time is to install clear bra. You can see that video here: </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </li> </ol> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: unset;"> In this case, upon further inspection (after we had finished filming), we advised the client not to have the bumper clear bra installed. There were just too many sandblasted areas.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: unset;"> Eventually, almost every car will end up with that sandblasted look (especially those that sit low to the ground, or in the case of a client we have in the shop that commutes from Belton to Waco every day, even with 6600 miles, already has it. The only solution is clear bra, and clear bra fast after you take delivery of your vehicle!  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: unset;"> Many clients don’t even feel comfortable driving their vehicle from Austin up to Killeen, and prefer to take advantage of our partnership with Detail Driven Transporters to get vehicles transported up while the vehicle is unprotected. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: unset;"> While this is an article about polishing, it’s important to note that clear bra early on can eliminate the concern of any rock chips, polishing, or appearance of rock chips after paint enhancement/paint correction before ceramic coating. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> See Us In Action </span> </h2> </div> Learn why rock chips stand out post-polishing with Harker Heights Ceramic Coating.

Some of these other issues that are less common, we aren’t sure if because of staffing shortages and delays due to COVID-19, or some other reason. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> – Bubbling. We have had to send multiple vehicles back to the owner when we discovered bubbling paint (typically on the roof, in one case from a Chevy Tahoe) that came from the dealer in Killeen. Unfortunately, it took months for them to get it repainted. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> – Debris in the paint. Everything from fuzz painted in on a Kia Telluride tailgate from a client located in Copperas Cove, to dust baked in from a Tesla delivered from Austin. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> – Poor paint cover-ups. More often than we would like to believe, vehicles are damaged either during transit from the factories in the long journey to Killeen, or someone at the dealer dings a door, or a client damages the vehicle on the test drive. Dealers rush to fix the issue, which we often call “quick respray” – meaning very little prep was done prior to repainting a small area. This can cause issues when installing clear bra or even polishing, depending upon how bad the defect is. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> – Dents, creases, and dings. Some dents or dings seem as though they might have occurred on the lot in one of the many dealers in Killeen (most dealerships are in the Killeen proper area, and almost none in Harker Heights or Copperas Cove), but some seem to be clearly from the factory. This is common on Teslas, which we have seen many, many, factory creases in body panels. Due to their locations, it simply doesn’t seem likely that it happened at the Austin delivery center or by the client. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> – Swirls and scratches. Of course, dealers are known for this. Dealers in Killeen are no different, and being that the Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights areas are smaller in population than the greater Austin area, it’s probably even harder to find help. Dealers are notorious for quickly “detailing” vehicles, which might even be a step down from one of the many Mister Car Washes or Today’s Car Wash automatic car washes in the Killeen/Copperas Cove area. Dirty rags, quick turnaround, generally low pay for the detailers leads to tons of swirls and scratches in the paint. </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> See Us In Action </span> </h2> </div> Discover solutions for factory paint defects at Harker Heights Ceramic Coating.

It’s probably the most commonly-known iron and fallout remover on the market, and the name has become synonymous with the product. Most major auto detailing brands offer iron and fallout remover. We use Americana Global, but Gtechniq, Adam’s, Chemical Guys – everyone makes it.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> Generally speaking, iron and fallout remover contains the ingredient ammonium-thioglycolate, which smells really bad. However, it also quickly oxidizes metal that is embedded in your paint. Why would you have metal embedded in your paint, even with a new vehicle? Vehicles are often transported by rail at some point in their journey to you, and metal from the rail system (or brake pad dust from driving) can embed itself in the paint.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> When you use iron and fallout remover, it reacts with the metal, oxidizes it, and lets it be pulled off the vehicle very easily. When it reacts, the product typically changes purple. If it doesn’t change color – no iron.  </span> </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> If you have ever seen little rusty specs, especially on lighter-colored vehicles, it’s iron embedded in your paint that has begun to rust. It’s not the same thing as in older cars where the entire panel gets rusted – but it’s rust nonetheless. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> What is a clay bar? </span> </h2> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> This may sound obvious but a clay bar is, in fact, a bar of clay, used to prepare and decontaminate paint – we use this prior to paint correction, even on new vehicles (which may have gotten contaminants during shipment), or ceramic coating and even clear bra. The clay is a very tacky product (it is often difficult to remove from the packaging and storage container) that will grab and absorb contaminants from the paint without re-depositing them elsewhere. We use a heavily lubricated liquid either dedicated for clay bar usage, or prior to clear bra installation, we simply use our slip mixture which is a combination of reverse osmosis water and Johnson and Johnson baby shampoo. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> The prevents the clay bar from catching on the paint and marring the surface. </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> See Us In Action </span> </h2> </div> Uncover the mysteries of clay bars and fallout removers with Harker Heights Ceramic Coating – Your guide to automotive care starts here!

We are human, and it can be tough to remember to talk about every single thing prior to or during delivery of a vehicle.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> These waivers aren’t designed to scare clients away by presenting multiple issues that could occur with clear bra and ceramic coating, but rather an informational tool to address things such as not using an automatic car wash, or not getting your vehicle wet for 24 hours after a ceramic coating, or other permanent issues (such as getting your pressure washer nozzle too close to the film during washing).  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> We prefer that our clients are as informed as possible, and that we are as transparent as possible with any potential risks during ceramic coating and clear bra installation and aftercare.  </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> See Us In Action </span> </h2> </div> Discover why signing a ceramic coating or clear bra waiver before scheduling with Harker Heights Ceramic Coating is essential.

However, we try to give a ballpark idea below (all timelines are subject to change based on the vehicle and scheduling): </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> Clear bra front bumper package: Approximately less than a day to install, can potentially return same day after excessive edge heat treating, but prefer to keep overnight to trim and post heat in the morning. There is additional risk by not allowing that extra time. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> Clear bra partial or full front package: Approximately 5-8 hours for installation maximum, with the same restrictions we typically place on the front bumper paint protection film package (keeping overnight to ensure drying and tucking). </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> Clear bra track package: Typically one business day to install, maybe 1.5 days, and overnight to dry. Expect to drop off one day and pick up later the next evening the next day, or to be safe, the day after. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> Clear bra full body package: Typically two to three days of installation, one day to dry, and one day to trim.

This is of no fault to other manufacturers, but as we are a small shop, it is not always feasible to allow multiple days for ceramic coatings as would be required by using many layers on layers of 9H ceramic coating as well as a top coating. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> For most average vehicles, expect about one day of preparation or less for the paint correction/paint enhancement, detailing, washing, and less than a half a day for ceramic coating. If the weather is not expected to rain, a client can receive the vehicle that evening. This is impacted by the weather, the deepness of the scratches in the paint, and any additional ceramic coating or clear bra packages that are added on (such as us ceramic coating over clear bra, or doing wheels-off ceramic coating packages, or interior ceramic coating packages). </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> More difficult vehicles, such as vehicles that have paint in excessively bad condition (oxidized paint, older cars with extensive wear and tear, or vehicles that have been ran through many automatic car washes), may take an extra day or more of correction, depending upon the expectations of the client on the finished product prior to installing the ceramic coating. </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> See Us In Action </span> </h2> </div> Wondering about the timeframe for paint enhancement, paint correction, or ceramic coating?

You cannot take it through an automatic car wash, be it ceramic coated or clear bra, without voiding any warranties from us or the manufacturers of the clear bra or ceramic coating. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: unset;"> Unfortunately, automatic car washes use high-pressure nozzles that come too close to the clear bra edges, they use harsh chemicals (whether it’s a touchless or brush car wash), and in the case of the brushed automatic car wash, they damage the paint and strip the coating off with their abrasive nature. We talk about this elsewhere in a few places. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: unset;"> There is a common misconception that ceramic coating completely repels dirt. It doesn’t. The ceramic coating will help make cleanup easier, and it will provide some protection against some other hazards as well as provide UV protection…but you will still get dirt. We have had some people comment on our YouTube videos asking why their self-installed DIY ceramic coating isn’t preventing brake dust on their wheels. Unfortunately, there is so much misinformation out there about ceramic coating and clear bra that they were led to believe that would be the case by someone or some advertisement. You will still collect brake dust, even with the best ceramic coatings. It will just be easier to clean, and potentially provide some protection from brake dust corrosion. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: unset;"> Clear bra is no different. Bird droppings, bug guts, hard water spots – they can all still happen on the clear bra. We install both clear bra and ceramic to make cleanup easier (ceramic coating) as well as provide rock chip, scratch, and scuff protection (clear bra). Ultimately, they still need to be cleaned up after they get dirty, or those hazards will damage the paint protection film or ceramic coating just as it would the paint.  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: unset;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: unset;"> Our goal is to protect our paint as much as possible – going to a body shop never ends well.

Ceramic coatings or PPF/clear bra/paint protection film are not impervious to damages of these types. So, we might reluctantly agree that car covers are appropriate in this situation, even though we generally dislike using them – in our Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights area, this is usually our Fort Cavazos clients! </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Many of the same reasons the car cover is bad, are the same reasons these ugly bras are also bad. Keep that in mind when reading this article! </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> In general, your paint is fairly susceptible to scratching, even if you have ceramic coating on it. Clear bra/paint protection film will protect against these scratches, but ceramic coating will absolutely not. Even with PPF, over time, these car covers can scratch or scuff it enough to leave permanent marks. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> A lot of times it’s not even the car cover itself, it is the method that the cover is attached. Many times they will have elastic, yet still have some method of tying it down for extreme weather.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> For car bras (not clear bra/PPF – the ugly black/leather/mesh ones), they can flap in the wind while driving just like a car cover in the wind. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Dust and dirt being trapped </span> </h2> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> When you use a car cover, it is almost impossible to keep the underside of the car cover as well as the surface of the car perfectly clean at all times. It gets particular dusty in the Central Texas area. This is the same issue with these leather and mesh bras – they get dirt trapped underneath. When there is dust or debris trapped between your car’s clearcoat and the car cover/leather bra, it is no different than rubbing your car with a dirty rag (maybe even worse, in some instances). This is whether or not the car is inside or out, as even inside, the car cover may move or brush against the paint. If the cover or the bra is left to flap in the wind or weather, it can abrade the paint entirely down to the primer, metal, or substrate. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Outside, the situation is far more dire. Even a well-tied down, perfectly fitting car cover (or leather/mesh bra), will move in the wind. The tie-down methods as well as the car cover itself will move, abrading the paint and removing any ceramic coating from the surface. Remember that ceramic coating creates a semi-permanent bond with your paint, making the only way to remove it is with an abrasive material. A car cover with dirt trapped between the underside and the ceramic coating will certainly act as that abrasive material, just like a compound or polish will abrade the ceramic coating off (or an automatic car wash brush).  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> You would think that you cannot get dirt between the cover, leather/mesh bra, and the ceramic coating/paint if the cover is on, but that isn’t the case. It’s bound to get some dirt, however small, under there. If you’ve lived in the Copperas Cove/Killeen/Ft Cavazos area for awhile, you know that parking a car outside for even 15 minutes can attract dust. And even if it doesn’t, the constant movement of the material against the ceramic-coated surface (or bare paint surface if you have yet to purchase ceramic coating or PPF/clear bra) will damage the paint. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Here are some bullet points as to why car covers are bad for your car: </span> </h2> <p> <br/> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Scratches and Abrasions: </span> <span style="display: initial;">  If not used properly or if the cover itself is of poor quality, it could cause scratches or abrasions on the car’s surface. Wind or movement of the cover against the car can lead to this issue. This is no different with the leather/mesh bra blowing in the wind when driving in the Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights area highways. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Moisture Trapping: </span> <span style="display: initial;">  If the cover doesn’t allow proper ventilation, it can trap moisture underneath. This can lead to condensation forming on the car’s surface, potentially causing rust, mold, or mildew. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Paint Damage: </span> <span style="display: initial;">  If the car cover or leather/mesh bra is dirty or becomes dirty while in use, it can rub against the car’s paint and cause damage over time. This is especially true if there’s dirt or debris caught between the cover and the car. We talked about this above, and how dirt is bound to get between the fabric and paint (or PPF).  </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Wind Damage: </span> <span style="display: initial;">  Strong winds can cause the cover or bra to flap against the car’s surface, potentially leading to abrasion and paint damage. We have seen cars with completely bare paint from even some soft material flapping against the paint over a longer period of time. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Fit Issues: </span> <span style="display: initial;">  Ill-fitting covers might not provide adequate protection and can also cause issues when trying to secure them in place. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Time and Effort: </span> <span style="display: initial;">  Putting on and taking off a car cover can be time-consuming and cumbersome. This might discourage regular use, defeating the purpose of protecting the car. </span> </li> </ol> </div> Discover if car covers are the right choice for you and your vehicle with expert insights from Harker Heights Ceramic Coating.

It is not cost-effective for most clients to choose to pay a premium to have no seams at all compared to how much extra protection it provides. Remember that it is paint protection film, not paint perfection film. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> Over time, these edges may begin to accumulate some dirt, making them more visible. This is especially true for lighter-colored vehicles, where the darker dirt line is more obvious. The best way to handle these buildups is a combination of having us also install a ceramic coating on your entire vehicle at the time you have it covered in clear bra, and using a soft-bristled toothbrush when you foam your car to lightly clean the edge. </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> See Us In Action </span> </h2> </div> Maintain the integrity of your clear bra with Harker Heights Ceramic Coating's maintenance tips.

Everyone has their own way of washing their vehicle, and detailers don’t always agree on the exact steps or methods. We are simply showing you the way that we take care of our car (which is covered in clear bra/paint protection film as well as sb3 ceramic coating), and hoping that you can take our methods and adapt how you see fit.

Remember we are using a completely different towel for wheels that we don’t mix with paint towels. You’re simply going to spray a generous amount of waterless wash on your ceramic coated wheel and wipe it off. Again, this is not a good idea when the wheels are super dirty and really if you don’t have access to water/hose. If you have the option you definitely would be better to hit these with soap and a mitt, even though they are ceramic coated. Remember that ceramic coating isn’t going to completely repel the brake dust on your wheels, it’s just going to make this part of the process easier.  </span> </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: var( --e-global-typography-primary-font-weight );">   </span> </p> <h4> <span style="display: unset;"> Waterless wash, car: </span> </h4> <p> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: var( --e-global-typography-primary-font-weight );"> If your car is not that dirty, for example if you keep the car clean and it doesn’t get muddy, you can use the waterless wash or rinseless wash method. The goal of rinseless wash is to lift the dirt particles off the surface so they are somewhat floating on the ceramic coating. Since the ceramic coating has filled in peaks and valleys in your paint or in your clear bra, it’s easier to remove. Liberally spray the waterless wash onto the surface in small areas, and use your plush microfiber drying towel (we use Autofiber) to sort of drag across the surface without using much pressure. With a ceramic coating, this should come off very easily. If you have a clear bra on your car, as well, it’s even easier, as you can be a little quicker with the wiping and a little more aggressive as well, since the clear bra is self-healing and it won’t scratch your paint. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <h4> <span style="display: unset;"> Wheels, standard wash with foam cannon/hose/two buckets: </span> </h4> <p> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: var( --e-global-typography-primary-font-weight );"> Always wash and pre-rinse your wheels in the shade if possible using a 40 degree tip and staying about 2.5-3 feet away from the surface. Work on wheels first – you’ll notice that the wheels should bead pretty well once they are ceramic coating, making your cleanup easier. We use a non-acid-based wheel cleaner from P&amp;S using a microfiber wheel brush to agitate them. Rub the wheel cleaner on the grit guard every approximately 1/3 of the wheel and do not mix that rinse bucket with other items that will touch the paint. Re-rinse the wheel again with a pressure washer. Again, it should be easy because your wheel is now ceramic coated. Remember to keep items that come in contact with the wheel away from the paint, and separate the buckets, mitts, etc.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: var( --e-global-typography-primary-font-weight );"> Because the wheel is ceramic coated, does not mean you won’t have brake dust, but it should be easier to clean off. In many cases you may not need to physically agitate the wheel because the ceramic coating makes it that much easier – if that’s the case, use the same concept with the wheels as you would the paint – the less touching the better. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <h4> <span style="display: initial;"> Standard pressure washer/hose/foam cannon: </span> </h4> <h4> <br/> </h4> <p> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: var( --e-global-typography-primary-font-weight );"> For waterless/rinseless wash, we only want to use that, even on a ceramic coated/clear bra vehicle if the car is not really that dirty. Once it gets past that dusty/very lightly dirty stage, you want to move to a hose/foam cannon/two bucket method to clean it, even if it is coated or has clear bra. Remember that ceramic coating does not protect against scratching of the surface when washing and drying your vehicle – only clear bra will help with that.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: var( --e-global-typography-primary-font-weight );"> Always wash top to bottom on the car so the water and dirt you are rinsing off your ceramic coated car runs over uncleaned or dirty panels. You don’t want to clean a panel and then clean the panel above it, and all the dirt runs back to the panel you just cleaned. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: var( --e-global-typography-primary-font-weight );"> Set up a rinse bucket with a grit guard and a nice, soft mitt (or sponge), with fresh water only in it. You’re going to use that grit guard to shake off the dirt particles from the mitt when you rinse it. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: var( --e-global-typography-primary-font-weight );"> Wash/rinse the vehicle, which should be easier since it has ceramic coating, clear bra/paint protection film, or both. Sometimes, if you want to be extra careful, you can spray rinseless wash on the surface before you even rinse it off to help raise the dirt particles off the ceramic coated surface.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: var( --e-global-typography-primary-font-weight );"> Switch to the foam cannon. Foam the car. From the top of the vehicle, use light pressure side to side with your mitt. As soon as you get the mitt dirty, you’re going to rub the mitt on the grit guard, dislodging the dirt to the bottom of the bucket, and wring out the mitt. Continue on. The more you rinse and wring out, and work in small sections, the less likely you are to scratch. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: var( --e-global-typography-primary-font-weight );"> Switch back to the 40 degree tip and rinse top to bottom again just like you did to start. Use either a towel, lightly moving over the surface (again, easier because of the ceramic coating), changing out your towels frequently. Or you can use a leaf blower as well, just ensure the battery is charged and set on the high setting. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: var( --e-global-typography-primary-font-weight );"> Use a separate towel (we use black so it’s obvious) to dry wheels so they don’t get mixed in with towels that touch the paint.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <h4> <span style="display: unset;"> Standard pressure washer/hose/foam cannon (extra dirty with two bucket method added): </span> </h4> <p> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: var( --e-global-typography-primary-font-weight );"> You’re going to use the same method as with the regular foam cannon method, except now you are adding a second bucket with a mitt and soap. So instead of just using the mitt with the foam cannon and rinsing, you’re going to use the bucket with the soap in it. Foam cannon, then clean mitt dipped in soapy water, then rinse as usual, then back to the soapy water, and repeat.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: var( --e-global-typography-primary-font-weight );"> This is also the method you will use if you don’t have access to a hose and/or foam cannon/pressure washer, such as potentially at an apartment complex or similar. You just have to eliminate the foam cannon out of the equation.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <h4> <span style="display: unset;"> Interior and windshield cleaning: </span> </h4> <p> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: var( --e-global-typography-primary-font-weight );"> For cleaning windshields, using an old newspaper is a myth that doesn’t work anymore, because the dye process has changed over the years. The best method we have found to clean windshields is to spray waterless wash (which can also be diluted to be a glass cleaner), use a squeegee to clean it off. Take a perfectly clean microfiber and dry the remainder, and then take another towel and wipe it one more time. Once you use these towels, you cannot reuse them, as the dirt is what causes streaks on the interior windshield.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: var( --e-global-typography-primary-font-weight );"> To clean our interior, which we have also ceramic coated (we always ceramic coat just about every surface to make cleanup easier), we use P&amp;S express interior cleaner. It works on leather, plastic, and fabric with no issue. It’s really as easy as spraying some onto a clean rag and wiping off. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: var( --e-global-typography-primary-font-weight );"> It’s important to not use a brand-new colorful towel that hasn’t been washed, or a towel that bleeds, when you are dealing with lighter colored interiors and leather, even if they are ceramic coated, because the dye from the towel can transfer to the light surface. This is particularly concerning on the Teslas with the white vegan leather interiors, which are known to even turn blue from blue jeans (and another reason we highly recommend ceramic coating them, to make that removal easier or to prevent the dye transfer entirely).  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <h4> <span style="display: unset;"> Tire shine: </span> </h4> <p> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: var( --e-global-typography-primary-font-weight );"> For tire shine, we typically use Americana Global Tire and Trim and a smaller Autofiber applicator, and we simply apply it on and wipe it off. This gives it a new tire look as opposed to dousing the tire in tire shine, which slings shine all over the vehicle and looks too greasy for our tastes. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <h4> <span style="display: unset;"> Water spot removal: </span> </h4> <p> <span style="display: unset; font-weight: var( --e-global-typography-primary-font-weight );"> The biggest culprit of water spots is either washing your vehicle with hard water, or the water from an untreated sprinkler system. The best method to remove this is to use vinegar, which you will likely have around the house. And then rinse the car off afterward. If you need to use a dedicated water spot remover, such as the Renegade product we recommended, just ensure you wear gloves and immediately rinse the surface afterward (and do not apply in direct light). </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> See Us In Action </span> </h2> </div> Get the most out of your ceramic coating or clear bra/PPF investment by following the proper washing process.

You cannot take it through an automatic car wash, be it ceramic coated or clear bra, without voiding any warranties from us or the manufacturers of the clear bra or ceramic coating. </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <span> <br/>  </span> </span> </p> <p> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> Unfortunately, automatic car washes use high-pressure nozzles that come too close to the clear bra edges, they use harsh chemicals (whether it’s a touchless or brush car wash), and in the case of the brushed automatic car wash, they damage the paint and strip the coating off with their abrasive nature. We talk about this elsewhere in a few places. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> There is a common misconception that ceramic coating completely repels dirt. It doesn’t. The ceramic coating will help make cleanup easier, and it will provide some protection against some other hazards as well as provide UV protection…but you will still get dirt. We have had some people comment on our YouTube videos asking why their self-installed DIY ceramic coating isn’t preventing brake dust on their wheels. Unfortunately, there is so much misinformation out there about ceramic coating and clear bra that they were led to believe that would be the case by someone or some advertisement. You will still collect brake dust, even with the best ceramic coatings. It will just be easier to clean, and potentially provide some protection from brake dust corrosion. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> Clear bra is no different. Bird droppings, bug guts, hard water spots – they can all still happen on the clear bra. We install both clear bra and ceramic to make cleanup easier (ceramic coating) as well as provide rock chip, scratch, and scuff protection (clear bra). Ultimately, they still need to be cleaned up after they get dirty, or those hazards will damage the paint protection film or ceramic coating just as it would the paint.  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> <br/> </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> Our goal is to protect our paint as much as possible – going to a body shop never ends well.

Harker Heights Ceramic Coating provides the answers to keep your vehicle looking great. faq After Care What is oxidation or clearcoat failure (dull, faded, or flaking paint), and can you fix it? 2022-06-20T08:46:01Z 2022-06-20T08:46:01Z <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h1> <span style="display: initial; text-shadow: none;"> What Is Oxidation or Clearcoat Failure and Can You Fix It? </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </h1> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> Clearcoat is the upper-most layer of most new car paints, and it provides UV protection from the Central Texas sun and other elements and gives your paint most of the shine. Under the clearcoat is the basecoat (the color), and under that – is primer, followed by whatever substrate is painted (plastic, fiberglass, metal, etc). Older vehicles have what is called single-stage paint, which has no dedicated clearcoat layer.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> Your vehicle’s clearcoat can fail for other reasons, but as a general rule for the purpose of this answer, oxidation is a stage of clearcoat failure, that if caught early enough, can likely be repaired as part of paint enhancement/paint correction.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> Clearcoats on vehicles are generally rated between 10 to 15 years (note that our clear bra by itself is warrantied for 10 years!), but a number of environmental factors can contribute to an earlier failure. This could be the brutal sun we have in the Killeen / Copperas Cove / Harker Heights areas, it could be harsher chemicals used on the surface, excessive polishing over years wearing down the UV protection/clearcoat, or other things. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Oxidation </span> </h2> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> Oxidation is essentially corrosion or breakdown of the painted surface due to exposure to heat/sun/oxygen. Over time, the paint dries out and begins to fade. You’ve probably seen vehicles with patches of cloudy/milky-looking paint. This process is known as oxidation. Eventually, oxidation will deteriorate the clearcoat.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> Typically, we can repair oxidation using a machine polisher/detail and protect it against future breakdowns by ceramic coating it (which provides UV protection) or installing clear bra, or both.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> Some articles will suggest removing the vehicle from the sun by putting it in a garage, or installing a car cover, but car covers are equally bad for your paint (so don’t listen to that advice). Just keep the vehicle protected with either ceramic coating, clear bra, or both. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Clearcoat failure </span> </h2> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> As we mentioned above, there are other factors that can cause a clearcoat to fail, but clearcoat failure will also happen as oxidation progresses. If you have ever seen a car with peeling or flaking clearcoat and dull basecoat exposed, the clear coat has failed. Typically, although not always, oxidation will be a very generalized dull area whereas clearcoat failure will have very defined edges. You can often chip the edges of the spot with your fingernail. You cannot fix clearcoat failure by detailing/buffing/polishing/ceramic coating. The only option would be to find an auto body shop (most around here are located in Killeen and Copperas Cove, we know of few if any in the Harker Heights area) and have the repaint/respray the vehicle or affected part. </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> See Us In Action </span> </h2> </div> Get a comprehensive understanding of oxidation or clearcoat failure and its effects on your vehicle's paint.

It’s because, despite what the industry might tell you – paint correction is NOT required when installing a ceramic coating. We think this is a ruse to get people to spend more money. In reality, our typical process of decontamination and other steps outlined in other videos prepare the paint for a ceramic coating just fine. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> So the answer to the question is no – paint correction / paint enhancement is NOT required.

As much as I wish we were qualified and able to do paintwork, we aren’t. Most cities like Harker Heights, Killeen, Copperas Cove, do not allow people to have autobody/paintwork shops as home-based businesses.  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> If you notice, most body shops are located in specific areas. Cities aren’t apt to approve outside of those areas. The reasoning is, that even if a body shop or paint shop does great work, there are still typically pieces of vehicles, oil, waste, solvents and gasses, smells, and more than that. We joke that the city of Harker Heights is like an HOA (only kidding, though, we understand), and citizens will complain about body shops operating in their area. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> So, unfortunately, we don’t do anything that involves painting.

A lot of detailers will chase every single scratch, trying to make the car’s paint completely perfect. In reality, they are simply thinning the clearcoat for a scratch that will likely come back after the first detail of the vehicle.

This sounds pretty self-explanatory, and many people just call this “simple polish” – but it doesn’t always have to be just a polish. Sometimes, it can be a proper compound (cutting agent) on a proper pad and technique without having to polish afterward. We use, almost exclusively, Meguiar’s M110 Ultra Pro Speed Compound, which given the right pad and technique, can sometimes finish like a polish on certain paints. </a> </p> <h2> <span style="display: initial; color: var(--color_3);"> <br/> </span> </h2> <h2> <a href="https://hhceramiccoatings.com/ceramic-coating-in-killeen-tx/" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> What is a two-step or two-stage paint correction / paint enhancement? </a> </h2> <p> <a href="https://hhceramiccoatings.com/ceramic-coating-in-killeen-tx/" target="_blank" style="display: initial; text-decoration: none; color: var(--color_3);"> Typically, with a two-stage paint correction, this is a compound followed by a polish. Many people call this “cut and buff.” The reason it is twice as expensive is that it takes almost twice the time. In this instance, we are compounding or cutting the paint to remove defects with an aggressive compound and pad on our machine polisher, followed by a polish on a polishing pad. The reason two stages are required in this type of auto detail, is because an aggressive pad and product can (not always) leave smaller scratches visible in the sunlight that we call holograms. The polishing removes the holograms and creates that mirror/shiny finish on your car’s paint. </a> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; color: var(--color_3);"> <br/> </span> </p> <h2> <a href="https://hhceramiccoatings.com/ceramic-coating-in-killeen-tx/" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> So, what is a three-step or three-stage paint correction / paint enhancement? </a> </h2> <p> <a href="https://hhceramiccoatings.com/ceramic-coating-in-killeen-tx/" target="_blank" style="display: initial; text-decoration: none; color: var(--color_3);"> Typically, in a three-step paint enhancement, we need an even finer polish because the heavier cutting polish might still leave micro-scratches or holograms.

This is the most common type of defect auto detailing / ceramic coating / paint enhancement clients are concerned about, and these are also the biggest culprit for making the paint almost have a dull appearance. Usually, when people think of paint correction and ceramic coating, they think of these swirls. Clear bra / paint protection film will hide most of these scratches and prevent rock chips, but clear bra is not always budget-friendly and also more difficult to do on older vehicles.  </a> </p> <p> <span style="color: var(--color_3); display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <h4> <a href="https://hhceramiccoatings.com/ceramic-coating-in-killeen-tx/" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> What causes swirls? </a> </h4> <p> <a href="https://hhceramiccoatings.com/ceramic-coating-in-killeen-tx/" target="_blank" style="color: var(--color_3); text-decoration: none; display: initial;"> The most common cause of swirl marks in your car’s paint that we see are from the automatic car washes in the Killeen/Harker Heights areas, and just improper washing techniques over the years. Unless your car is garage-kept and rarely driven, dark paint is bound to get some swirls. Washing a car with a two bucket method, not mixing wheel rags with paint rags, amongst a ton of other tips we go over in our aftercare section of our website, isn’t exactly a fast process. That’s why we love clear bra so much, as it is self-healing and incredibly forgiving if you brush up against it while the car is dirty, or accidentally rub too hard to remove a hazard like bird droppings or bug guts. </a> </p> <p> <span style="color: var(--color_3); display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <a href="https://hhceramiccoatings.com/ceramic-coating-in-killeen-tx/" target="_blank" style="color: var(--color_3); text-decoration: none; display: initial;"> Some other factors that can lead to swirl marks in your vehicle’s paint: </a> </p> <p> <span style="color: var(--color_3); display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <ol> <li style="color: var(--color_3);"> <a href="https://hhceramiccoatings.com/ceramic-coating-in-killeen-tx/" target="_blank" style="color: var(--color_3); text-decoration: none; display: initial;"> Polishers or buffers with the wrong combination of pad and material choice. This is most common on vehicles that have had body work done. Most paint and body shops do not properly finish off the polishing stage of the paint because it takes too much time and effort, and they are trying to pump out vehicles because they are usually on commission. They are counting on our clients to not notice the swirl marks.

This is also why our shop walls are painted a matte / flat black color. When we are conducting paint enhancement/paint correction and ceramic coating on your vehicle, we WANT the scratches to stand out to us so we can see them more effectively. This little bit helps us see them, whereas if the walls were a semi gloss or gloss white, the scratches and swirls may be washed out by reflective light while we are polishing. </a> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> See Us In Action </span> </h2> </div> Don't let swirl marks ruin the appearance of your car.

It can even damage your clear bra. No typical auto detailing will solve this – and if you wait long enough, even a cut and buff (compound and polish) might not be enough. </a> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <a href="https://hhceramiccoatings.com/ceramic-coating-in-killeen-tx/" target="_blank" style="color: var(--color_3); display: initial; text-decoration: none;"> It’s incredibly imperative that you remove bird poop as soon as possible (and even bug guts).  </a> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <h2> <a href="https://hhceramiccoatings.com/ceramic-coating-in-killeen-tx/" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> Why does bird poop etch / damage paint? </a> </h2> <p> <a href="https://hhceramiccoatings.com/ceramic-coating-in-killeen-tx/" target="_blank" style="color: var(--color_3); display: initial; text-decoration: none;"> Birds have no bladder. That sounds pretty convenient for us mammals that have to do number one and number two, but for your paint – it’s not great news.  </a> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <a href="https://hhceramiccoatings.com/ceramic-coating-in-killeen-tx/" target="_blank" style="color: var(--color_3); display: initial; text-decoration: none;"> Birds have an organ called the cloaca. Poop is mixed with uric acid from the bladder like a paint-killing witch’s concoction, and then deposited on your vehicle with no care for the money you spent on clear bra and/or ceramic coating. How dare those birds! </a> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <a href="https://hhceramiccoatings.com/ceramic-coating-in-killeen-tx/" target="_blank" style="color: var(--color_3); display: initial; text-decoration: none;"> The pH levels of uric acid are around 3-4.5. Just for a frame of reference, everyone is taught about hydrochloric acid in school, which is around 1-3.5 on the pH scale. So that nasty acid no one wanted to touch in high school and junior high because it was so acidic – something similar is getting dropped onto your ceramic coating or clear bra. </a> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <a href="https://hhceramiccoatings.com/ceramic-coating-in-killeen-tx/" target="_blank" style="color: var(--color_3); display: initial; text-decoration: none;"> When the vehicle paint or clear bra heats up during the day, it expands. The bird poop is allowed to seep into the surface, and when it cools off (which seems like never in the Killeen area in the summer, but we digress), it contracts around the acid. Over time, this permanently damages the paint. </a> </p> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </h2> <h2> <a href="https://hhceramiccoatings.com/ceramic-coating-in-killeen-tx/" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> Ok, but can you fix it? </a> </h2> <p> <a href="https://hhceramiccoatings.com/ceramic-coating-in-killeen-tx/" target="_blank" style="color: var(--color_3); display: initial; text-decoration: none;"> Yes, we can fix it – if caught early enough.

However, most rock chips that you see in someone’s car bumper could have been prevented altogether with clear bra, without it actually damaging the film itself. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Time. Body shops are expensive and backed up, but you never know how long they will keep your car to repaint the bumper if you decide not to go with clear bra. Our Corvette was in the body shop in Killeen for over three months trying to get them to make the paint right, and they never got it quite right, anyhow. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Quality of paint work. I have yet to find a body shop I trusted in the Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights and surrounding areas. We had the front clip of our C7 Corvette Stingray repainted to prepare for clear bra, and after three months, it still was flaking and chipping. We have seen other instances where there are paint runs, painters tape lines, you name it. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Cost. People underestimate the actual cost to repaint a bumper. Some front bumpers are more complicated than others, and therefore require more assembly and disassembly (R&amp;R – removal and replacement). Furthermore, most body shops, in our experience, do not do a quality job refinishing/polishing the paint after the fact, which means you need to hire someone to do it yourself, or buy a polisher yourself and do it. </span> </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Broken pieces. Cars are increasingly more and more complicated devices, and between wiring, plastic tabs that are sometimes one use, etc – you never know how well the car is going to fit back together, or if it will rattle, or have other issues. We see this all the time. We recently did a Kia Stinger that was clearly removed and replaced to install and uninstall a vinyl wrap, and many of the tabs on reflectors and other similar pieces were broken, leaving trim and lights barely hanging on. It created a lot of extra work for us when we were doing the clear bra/paint enhancement/ceramic coating in terms of liability, and having to be careful things didn’t fall off or break further. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> Overspray. Many times the body shops will try to cut corners and you might end up with overspray from the paint or clear coat on the rest of the car, which then requires a professional auto detailer (or a lot of time, or both) to remove, which increases replacement cost. </span> </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> It might not match. Some colors are harder to match than others, especially cars with unique metal flakes. Trying to get a similar concentration of metal flake in the paint at the autobody shop might be very difficult to replicate. When that happens, no amount of paint correction or detailing, or ceramic coating and clear bra, will cover it up and blend it together. </span> </li> </ol> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> These are all legitimate points to consider when you’re determining whether or not you want to install clear bra on a vehicle, and weighing the cost-benefit. Many people think they will need to replace the clear bra every couple years, eliminating most reasons to spend the money on clear bra over repainting. However, clear bra is not what it once was, and major brands warranty against yellowing, fading, and cracking for at least ten years. If you add a ceramic coating on top of the clear bra, it will likely last even longer.  <span>  </span> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> See Us In Action </span> </h2> </div> Don't waste time and money on constant panel repainting.

Two distinct camps have emerged, each advocating for a different approach. One insists on safeguarding headlights with PPF, while the other raises concerns about potential risks, particularly the risk of de-lamination of the OEM headlight clearcoat. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> As the automotive landscape evolves, with cars becoming more technologically advanced and expensive, the decision to PPF or not to PPF headlights becomes a nuanced consideration. In this article, we’ll delve into the arguments on both sides of the spectrum, providing insights based on years of experience working with various vehicles. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> PPF on Headlights - the debate </span> </h2> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> The Two Camps: Proponents and Skeptics </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Proponents of PPF on headlights argue for the added protection against rock chips and environmental elements. This perspective aligns with the belief that an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. In an era where headlights boast advanced technologies like BMW’s “Laser Light” option, which itself can cost a small fortune, the investment in protective measures seems justified, with Central Texas insurance rates already rising. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> On the flip side, skeptics emphasize the potential risks associated with de-lamination of the OEM headlight clearcoat. As cars become more sophisticated, so do their finishes, and any compromise to the factory clearcoat can be a costly issue to rectify. This viewpoint prompts a cautious approach, suggesting that the cons may outweigh the pros in certain scenarios. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Experience-Based Insights: 25 Years, Countless Vehicles </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> With a wealth of experience spanning 25 years and interactions with numerous vehicles, many in the Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights area, our perspective leans towards caution.

However, unforeseen environmental factors, impact from large rocks, or mishaps during detailing procedures can necessitate premature removal, adding an element of unpredictability to the equation. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: var(--e-global-typography-primary-font-weight);"> For those undeterred by the potential risks, we offer the option to install PPF on headlights with additional cost and waivers.

It sounds like something you would want for sticky paint protection film but you really don’t.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> The clear bra will stick well enough if the edges are prepped well (no residual wax, sealant, or ceramic coating on the EDGES). If the paint protection film grabs too hard during installation it will tack (adhere/stick) harder and faster, leaving behind marks where the adhesive was stretched on the paint.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> If a car is paint corrected before installation, we would almost need to wax everything but the edges to make sure the clear bra stretches safely during installation. This is especially true on a black car is because black cars show those clear bra adhesive distortions more than any other color, and we already increase our slip solution ratio by about 10% as is to try to minimize them.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Plus, anything that would likely come out during paint correction, like swirls, will be filled in and covered by the clear bra/paint protection film adhesive anyhow. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Lastly, the prepping of the surface before the clear bra is applied, like squeegeeing to clean it off, which is a step in the clear bra process that can’t be skipped, is going to leave swirls in the paint, as would the removal of the clear bra (later on, should it need to be).  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> So doing paint correction with the thought “The paint is now perfect, and later on it won’t need to be done when the film is removed” is misguided, as the clear bra removal (should it ever be required) is going to scratch the paint, anyhow (thereby needing paint correction again).  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> The only prep required for clear bra installation is extensive cleaning with soap and a brush, and clay bar.  </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> See Us In Action </span> </h2> </div> Understand the reasons why you should not conduct paint correction or enhancement before installing clear bra/PPF with Harker Heights Ceramic Coating today faq Clear Bra / PPF Why choose Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings to install your clear bra? 2022-06-17T03:09:38Z 2022-06-17T03:09:38Z <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h1> <span style="display: initial; text-shadow: none;"> What Types Of Clear Bra Are There? </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </h1> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> There are two overarching main reasons to choose HHCC to install your clear bra / paint protection film: the first is the business itself, and the second is attention to detail. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: bolder; display: initial;"> The business </span> <span style="display: initial;"> . The short story is that Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings serves and contributes in the local area – Lampassas, Copperas Cove, Killeen, Fort Hood, Harker Heights, Nolanville, and Temple.

You can tell that our clients feel like they are genuinely part of our family. We are a small, owner-operated, veteran-owned business, and we are Texans. We set ourselves apart by making your car the center of our attention. We communicate personally with each client throughout the process. Very rarely will you find that level of service elsewhere – not because other businesses aren’t good, but because everyone has employees, a grind, a shop, multiple clients. We only serve one client at a time.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Of course, we are also insured through Goosehead Insurance, we have over 20 cameras recording nonstop on multiple platforms around the businesses, we have an EIN and are registered with the State of Texas, registered with the City of Harker Heights to run a home-based business, and even have a trademark filed with the US government for “HHCC” (although they are severely backlogged). Don’t let the home business aspect fool you – we are legit. We simply like the autonomy of no overhead and no lease.

When we install clear bra, we primarily use our Graphtec FC9000-160 plotter, a massive machine capable of printing 64″ patterns on clear bra rolls of film. We use a software program called Core on our Macbook Pro to ensure your paint protection film is installed and printed as accurately as possible. Like we mentioned above, you are our primary focus while your vehicle is in our shop. We allocate an entire day to “tucking and trimming” so that the clear bra stays as accurate and seamless as possible, with as little lifting on the edges as possible (typically shops follow-up at the two week mark to trim, but we try to reduce that need as much as we can). You can see a video of our process below. We don’t allow vehicles to leave the shop with clear bra installs that we wouldn’t want on our own personal vehicles. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> See Us In Action </span> </h2> </div> Choose the best protection for your vehicle with Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings.

We carry a ton of different brands of film. You might hear people say “Xpel” as it is one of the best marketed brands, but in some cases they just mean PPF or clear bra in general (much like we say Kleenex to mean tissues). In 99% of the cases, even seasoned installers cannot tell the difference in brands if they are put right next to one another. We have had cars that have had different panels in Xpel, Legend, Kavaca (Ceramic Pro), Global, STEK, you name it! Almost all brands carry at least a 10 year warranty, are about 8 mil thick, self-healing, and hydrophobic (repels water). </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Probably the second-most popular type of clear bra (PPF) we see is matte finish. Many different brands from STEK, to Xpel, to Kavaca, 3M, and Legend all have matte lines. A matte finish clear bra takes your glossy paint and makes it look like a matte finish as if it was painted that way from the factory. Matte clear bra is also the only option for a matte finish paint job to keep the paint a matte. Matte film is a more expensive installation as we have to conduct a lot more disassembly and use a lot more film to ensure no gloss finish is coming through at the edges or seams. Matte finish is superior to matte paint – matte paint, once scratched, cannot be polished like typical glossy paint. Matte finish clear bra, however, is self-healing, just like the gloss. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> STEK Fashion Films </span> </h2> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Lastly, we have a lot of options from STEK, the leading “fashion film” manufacturer. STEK makes many cool patterns, such as carbon fiber (gloss, semi-gloss, and matte), Damascus, forged carbon, and much more. We have all of our originally black pieces on our BMW i8 covered in high gloss STEK carbon fiber paint protection film, and it provides the SAME protection as regular film, but gives a really realistic look. STEK PPF also has a gray, matte black, gloss black, and other colors that almost are similar to vinyl wraps in that they provide a color change. Unlike vinyl wraps, however, the STEK clear bra fashion films are 8-10 or more mil thick, whereas a typical vinyl wrap is only around 3 mil thick and provides almost no protection, and certainly no self-healing properties. These films are some of the most expensive on the market, for several reasons. The film and technology itself is more expensive, and like matte clear bra, it usually must be wrapped/disassembled more (if completing a color or pattern change).  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> A roll of some of the more expensive fashion film can cost us upwards of $2000 a roll just for materials. For example, 3M 2080 vinyl wrap in gloss black, 250sqft, is $615 on Amazon.com (and probably less for regular dealers). The same size roll of gloss black paint protection film is almost $2000. Again, the technology is totally different, but this helps to explain the difference in price. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> See Us In Action </span> </h2> </div> Explore the different types of clear bra with Harker Heights Ceramic Coating.

Two weeks is when the clear bra should be curing; our Central Texas heat and humidity have taken effect.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Sometimes we try to get the clear bra as close as possible to the edge of the body panel. There is always a fine line between wrapping and tucking edges and putting the film so close to the edge that it has the potential of lifting because there isn’t enough paint to grab onto. Sometimes we hope that an edge will be ok, but perhaps it rubs against the adjacent body panel that we don’t anticipate.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Every vehicle is a new clear bra/paint protection film puzzle, and we don’t always know how an edge will hold up under pressure.

You might see different brands or auto detailing / clear bra companies that put down one another. We aren’t about doing that here at Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings. Assuming we aren’t talking about a “knock off” brand or a newer brand (not that newer brands of clear bra are bad, but we can’t speak to them), the result is almost indistinguishable to the client (and even us!).  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Xpel, 3M, Legend, Global, Kavaca (Ceramic Pro), Suntek, and Eastman are great films. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Why would we “admit” this? </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Most major brands are approximately 8mil thick (each mil is 1/100th of an inch), compared to 3mil or so for vinyl wraps. We discussed the difference between vinyl wraps and clear bra here: <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> So, then, what is the difference? </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Most brands’ paint protection film secret formula is in their adhesive. Some clear bra companies have a higher “tack” (grab), some are less grabby, and some are in between. Some clear bra comes off the protective backing paper differently than others. Some PPF / clear bra films come with a “cap sheet,” – which protects the paint protection film during shipment. Most of these differences amount to difficulties (or lack thereof) for the installer (us). Once the film is on the paint and cured after a few weeks, there may be some nuanced differences between clear bra manufacturers, but we might not even know the difference when placed next to each other. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Price. There’s a range of pricing, just like any other product, and clear bra is no different. There are a ton of factors with clear bra pricing. Some companies have minimal sales representatives (who require commission), some have an entire structure around commissions, and some spend more on advertising and marketing. We primarily use Legend and STEK films. We use Legend films because we like the way it comes off the backing paper, and we appreciate the way it works on vehicles and doesn’t come with a cap sheet. We also like STEK paint protection films, and we use them for all fashion films (carbon fiber, etc.) and gloss films. Trust that we will always pick the best clear bra for you and your vehicle. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Business. Certain clear bra companies have minimum radiuses that require a maximum amount of paint protection film installers in that radius, and others want you to use their film and no other product exclusively. Here at Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings, we are interested in using the best product for your application, ceramic coating or paint protection film (clear bra). We don’t want to be bound by one specific brand. So that is why we choose the clear bra brands that we do.  </span> </li> </ol> <p> <br/> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> See Us In Action </span> </h2> </div> Explore major clear bra brand differences through Harker Heights Ceramic Coating's expert analysis.

However, areas on the car with PPF/clear bra (on our own car, it is the entire car) are easy to wipe without fear of scratching the paint. We love this feature!

It’s typically applied to the exterior surfaces of a vehicle to protect the paint from stone chips, scratches, and other minor abrasions. Here’s how self-healing PPF works: </span> </p> <ul> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Material Composition: Self-healing PPF is made from multiple layers of clear, thermoplastic urethane film. The topmost layer is engineered with a self-healing polymer, typically a blend of elastomers and other proprietary materials. This layer is the key to the film’s ability to repair itself. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Molecular Properties: The self-healing layer has a unique molecular structure allows it to “remember” its original, smooth form. When this layer is scratched or marred, the molecular chains in the polymer can return to their original positions over time when exposed to heat. This process is often referred to as “viscoelasticity.” </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Activation: The self-healing process is typically activated by heat from the sun or artificial means like a heat gun or warm water. The heat softens the polymer and encourages the molecules to move and reassemble, gradually filling in the scratches and restoring the film’s smooth appearance. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Time and Temperature: The time required for the self-healing process to take place can vary depending on the severity of the scratch and the ambient temperature. The healing process tends to be faster in warmer conditions, while it may take longer in colder environments. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Limitations: Self-healing PPF is most effective at repairing light surface scratches and swirl marks. Serious or extensive damage may not be fully healed, and the film may not return to its original pristine condition in such cases. Additionally, the self-healing ability of the film may diminish over time as it accumulates wear and tear. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Maintenance: Keeping the PPF clean and well-maintained is essential to facilitate the self-healing process. Regular washing and waxing can help prolong the life of the film and improve its ability to heal. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Replacement: In cases of severe damage or if the film’s self-healing ability has diminished significantly, it may be necessary to replace the PPF. Unlike the paint it protects, PPF is designed to be replaceable without damaging the vehicle’s finish. <br/> <br/> </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Overall, self-healing PPF provides additional protection for a vehicle’s paint, helping preserve its appearance and value over time. However, it’s important to note that while self-healing PPF can repair minor surface imperfections, it is not a substitute for proper care and maintenance of your vehicle’s paint. Regular washing, waxing, and other protective measures are still necessary to keep your car looking its best. </span> </p> </div> Get an understanding of what self-healing PPF/clear bra is and how it works to protect your car's paint from scratches! faq Clear Bra / PPF What is PPF/clear bra and what does it protect against? 2022-06-17T00:40:22Z 2022-06-17T00:40:22Z <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h1> <span style="display: unset; text-shadow: none;"> CLEAR PROTECTIVE FILM FOR CARS - OTHERWISE KNOWN AS PPF, CLEAR BRA, OR PAINT PROTECTION FILM </span> </h1> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> Are you looking for a clear protective film for your car that stops rock chips? </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Clear bra, clear protective film for your car, or paint protection film (also known as PPF), was developed by 3M during the Vietnam War to protect military helicopter blades from dust, damage, and debris. You might have even heard clear bra called “helicopter tape.”  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Clear bra is an 8 mil thick layer of protective film that we install on your vehicle to protect against damage. Most manufacturers such as Xpel, Kavaca/Ceramic Pro, STEK, Legend, Global, and many more are usually within this range of thickness and warranty (10-12 years). </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> However, we use Autobahn Incognito PPF, which has a no-hassle true lifetime warranty with a no-fault clause built in, and is transferable. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> Clear protective film options for your car (PPF/clear bra) </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> This clear protective film for your car protects against rock chips, scratches, and other environmental damage. Most clear bra is “self-healing” – meaning, many scratches and other minor damage will go away from heat (hot water or the Texas heat!). We usually install a glossy PPF/clear bra on the vehicle, but we also have “fashion films” from Autobahn – carbon fiber pattern, gloss black, and matte. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> Why call it "clear protective film for your car" instead of PPF, clear bra, or paint protection film? </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> In essence, calling PPF “clear protective film for your car” is a straightforward and descriptive way to communicate its purpose and nature to individuals who may not be familiar with the term “Paint Protection Film.” It helps potential customers or car owners quickly understand what this product does and how it can benefit their vehicles. This is why we see this in Google searches so often, because PPF is still a relatively unknown product or service to much of the population. We have also heard it called vinyl protective wrap, clear ceramic wrap, and much more. This is usually a result of confusion more so than a misunderstanding. Because our industry has not properly educated clients as a whole, and because some companies confuse terms, it confuses the general population. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> Why is it important to install PPF on your car? </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> Clear protective film, often referred to as Paint Protection Film (PPF), offers several important benefits for your car. Here are some reasons why it’s important to consider getting PPF for your vehicle: </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Preserve Your Car’s Appearance: PPF is designed to protect your car’s paintwork from various forms of damage, including rock chips, road debris, scratches, and minor abrasions (a big issue in the Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights area). Doing so helps maintain the pristine appearance of your vehicle, keeping it looking newer for longer. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Maintain Resale Value: A well-maintained car with minimal paint damage typically retains a higher resale value. PPF can help protect your investment and ensure that your car remains attractive to potential buyers when it’s time to sell or trade it in. Our Autobahn Incognito PPF (clear protective film) has a lifetime, transferrable warranty, which definitely increases or maintains resale value. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Prevent Oxidation and Fading: PPF protects against harmful UV rays, preventing your car’s paint from oxidizing or fading over time. This protection is precious for cars exposed to intense sunlight. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Reduce Maintenance Costs: With PPF in place, you’ll likely spend less on touch-up paint, scratch repairs, and other cosmetic maintenance tasks. This can save you both time and money over the life of your vehicle. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Enhance Long-Term Durability: PPF provides extra protection for your car’s paint, helping it withstand the wear and tear of everyday driving. This can extend the lifespan of your vehicle’s exterior finish. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Preserve Factory Finish: PPF is virtually invisible when properly installed, so it doesn’t alter your car’s appearance. This means you can enjoy the original factory finish while benefiting from added protection. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Peace of Mind: Knowing that your car’s paint is shielded by a layer of PPF can give you peace of mind when driving, especially on highways where other vehicles can kick up debris and small rocks. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Customizable Protection: PPF can be applied selectively to specific areas of your car, such as the front bumper, hood, fenders, side mirrors, and door edges, depending on your preferences and needs. This allows you to tailor the protection to the most vulnerable areas. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Easy Maintenance: PPF is easy to clean and maintain.

We can even do individual panels either for you preference, to redo them, or for insurance purposes (should you get into an accident, etc). </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> However, we have three popular packages that we sell the most of: </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Full front clear bra package. </span> </h2> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> For the full front clear bra package we include the mirrors, fenders, hood, and front bumper. This is a great paint protection film option for some daily drivers that might not see a ton of rock chips along the rocker panels or pillars. It protects against a lot of your typical damage and debris we see with clear bra.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Track package clear bra. </span> </h2> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> We call this clear bra package the “track package” or “track pack” mainly because a lot of sports cars get this. It isn’t just for people that need clear bra for the racetrack, but that is how it got its name. Some cars that aren’t necessarily sports cars, but might have more sensitive paint, such as Tesla, also use this package more than the full front clear bra. C8 Corvettes are a really popular track package clear bra candidate, and I don’t think we have done anything less than a track package on a Corvette. The track package clear bra covers everything the full front clear bra package (above) does, but adds rocker panels, partial pillars, and leading roof edge. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Full body clear bra package. </span> </h2> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> As the name suggests, we cover almost all of the car in clear bra, if it is an area that can feasibly covered. This is the ultimate in protection, and this is what we have on our BMW i8 and our Ford Explorer. It makes cleaning up an absolute breeze because the paint protection film is self-healing, so you don’t have to worry as much about scratching the paint like you would if you didn’t have it. This is end all be all protection against I35 debris coming up from the Austin area to the Killeen/Harker Heights/Copperas Cove areas and beyond. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> See Us In Action </span> </h2> </div> Find out the most popular clear bra packages at Harker Heights Ceramic Coating.

One of the most challenging aspects of becoming a PPF/clear bra installer has been this. We are detail-oriented and professional, and we have slight obsessive-compulsive tendencies.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> As we write this question and answer for you, we received new tempered glass screen protectors for our iPhone 13 Pro Max phones.

That’s not a lot! The BMW i8 hood is approximately 30 square feet alone. A full front clear bra package could be 150 or more square feet! </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Why are we giving you all of this math and square footage? Our shop has a giant WEN air filtration system suitable for a 1000sqft space (in a 400sqft shop); we keep everything clean. However, there’s always dust and debris. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;">   </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> “If you want to find a defect or something wrong with the install, you will.” </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> – Mike Norng </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;">   </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> There is a lot that goes into clear bra installations. There will almost always be a minor defect here and there. A dust particle here, a tiny piece of fuzz under the clear bra, or the occasional wrinkle (or what we call a “PPF tack mark”).  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Why Is That? </span> </h2> <p style="line-height: 1.2;"> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> It’s because clear bra installers are humans trying to put a giant piece of sticky material onto a vehicle, often stretching it and manipulating it in various ways, and inevitably you might see some defects.  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> We pledge that we would never let your vehicle leave our shop with something we wouldn’t accept on our own vehicle. We don’t tell you this because we want to scare you away. We tell you this because we are human. We want you to have the best installation possible. We will do everything in our power to ensure you are happy with your clear bra installation, and we will fix what we can at your house (whether it’s in Killeen / Copperas Cove / Harker Heights or as far as Austin or San Antonio) if your vehicle needs its clear bra trimmed/touched up. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Some people might argue that we would scare away clients by telling them their clear bra installations won’t be 100% perfect, but we prefer our clients to understand everything up front – from process, to pricing, to our shop, and results.

This is, unfortunately, not a warrantable item. Clear bra/paint protection film is designed to be a sacrificial layer against the elements. Clear bra is not, unfortunately, completely impenetrable.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> You might recall the video of the girl hitting our BMW i8 with her bicycle. This damage left a hole in the clear bra, but did not damage the painted surface. It is possible to potentially be so forceful, and so large, that it penetrates the clear bra AND damages the painted surface, but it’s fairly rare. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> In this instance, think of clear bra/paint protection film like a bulletproof vest.

This optical phenomenon is perfectly normal and stems from the nature of PPF application. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> When PPF is installed, it undergoes processes like heating and stretching, which are essential for a seamless fit on your vehicle. However, when viewed through polarized lenses, these manipulations can manifest as odd discolored distortions, creating a rainbow effect of sorts. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> This distortion occurs because polarized sunglasses are designed to filter light waves in a specific direction, reducing glare and enhancing visibility. The process of manipulating PPF during installation disrupts the uniformity of the film when viewed through polarized lenses, causing the rainbow-like appearance. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> Don't worry - no harm, no foul. </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> It’s crucial to understand that this distortion doesn’t compromise the effectiveness of the PPF or its protective qualities. The film is engineered to withstand environmental elements and safeguard your vehicle’s paint, even if it appears distorted when viewed through polarized sunglasses. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> In essence, the rainbow effect is an optical illusion resulting from the necessary manipulations during PPF installation. Embrace the uniqueness of this visual phenomenon, and rest assured that your PPF is performing its intended function – preserving the pristine look of your vehicle. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> So, the next time you catch a glimpse of your PPF through polarized sunglasses and notice the rainbow effect, there’s no cause for alarm.

It protected the paint, but the PPF was damaged beyond repair and needed to be replaced. It was a lot cheaper than replacing the hood or paint of the car, but nonetheless, it had to be replaced. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> When you are traveling to/from Austin from the Killeen area on I35, who knows what debris will get kicked up. It’s quite possible that a sharp or big enough rock, traveling at a high enough speed, will still tear through the clear bra. We cannot warranty against damage that isn’t related to the installation of the clear bra film. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Paint protection film is meant to be a sacrificial layer to protect your paint. We hope that you never have to replace your PPF, but if you do, we are here for you. And we provide significant discounts to clients who need panels replaced, and we also work with insurance companies for claims as well.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Clear bra will also not protect you against hail, dents, or dings, if they are of any significance. Remember that clear bra is a soft and flexible layer of protective film. If there is a sizeable force that would dent your car, it will likely dent the car even with paint protection film on it.

Fortunately (or unfortunately, depending upon how you look at it), many cars, trims, models, etc present different challenges. We have typical timeframes that we need the vehicle for to install paint protection film, but just realize, some vehicles or projects may take longer (or shorter) to complete. For example, a brand new model that doesn’t have patterns in our software may take longer to figure out, whereas a C8 Corvette that we have done many of, might be faster than you would otherwise expect just due to repetition. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;">   </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Generally speaking, the minimum time we need a vehicle is two days. That is because even on just a bumper clear bra installation, we still need the film to dry, and tuck and trim it. It’s POSSIBLE to turn it around in one day with heating of the edges, but it isn’t recommended. Especially with our heat and humidity in the Central Texas region, we don’t want water under the film to boil (yes, it can do that!), or the humidity or other environmental factors to cause lifting.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Single panels, bumper kits, and other things similar in nature for clear bra we expect to keep the vehicle for two days.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> For full front packages, we like to budget for three days to install your clear bra, unless it’s a vehicle we do frequently (like the aforementioned C8 Corvette).  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Sometimes we can complete track packages in the same time frame as a full front, depending upon the complexity of the clear bra on the rocker panels.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> For full body clear bra installations, we like to keep the vehicle at least five days. Full body installations can become quite tedious, and we would rather take our time and ensure your paint protection film is installed perfectly (or as perfectly as possible), rather than rush a job to make more money. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> See Us In Action </span> </h2> </div> Discover the swift installation process of clear bra with guidance from Harker Heights Ceramic Coating's experts.

You bet. </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Will PPF hide swirls? The short answer here is, it depends on the scratch. The answer is probably not if we are talking about scratches or defects that can be felt/caught with a fingernail. And definitely not rock chips – although we can LESSEN the look of SOME of the rock chips by filling them in with a crayon. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Swirls being hidden by PPF/clear bra are a little more complicated. Typical swirl marks you see from improper washing technique to some degree oxidation of the paint, and even some deeper scratches that you can’t feel with your fingernail (such as the ones you get from an automatic brush car wash), will mostly be hidden by clear bra / paint protection film (PPF). We have a lot of car washes here in the Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights area – I hope you don’t use them, but if you do, we can polish them out or hide them with PPF. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> How does this work? The adhesive from the PPF/clear bra will fill in many of the swirls and scratches in the car’s paint without changing the overall appearance of the film on the car. This is only for superficial issues. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> What about swirls on top of the PPF? </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Paint Protection Film (PPF) has the ability to hide swirls, but also self-heal swirls primarily due to its unique properties and construction.  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Self-Healing Technology: </span> <span style="display: initial;">  Many high-quality PPF products feature a self-healing topcoat. This topcoat contains elastomeric polymers that have the ability to return to their original state when exposed to heat. As a result, minor scratches on the surface of the PPF can “heal” or disappear over time, as the polymers react to the heat from sunlight or a heat source. And don’t we know that Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights sun is a killer! </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Flexible and Elastic Nature: </span> <span style="display: initial;">  PPF is designed to be flexible and elastic, conforming to the curves and contours of the vehicle’s body. This flexibility allows the film to absorb and disperse the impact of light scratches, preventing them from penetrating the film or leaving a visible mark on the underlying paint. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Thick and Durable Construction: </span> <span style="display: initial;">  PPF is typically thicker than traditional clear coats, providing an additional layer of protection against scratches. The thickness of the film helps to absorb and distribute the force of minor impacts, reducing the likelihood of scratches reaching the vehicle’s paint. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Transparent Clarity: </span> <span style="display: initial;">  High-quality PPF is optically clear, allowing it to maintain the clarity and shine of the underlying paint. This transparency helps hide superficial scratches by allowing light to pass through the film without distortion, making the scratches less noticeable. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Abrasion Resistance: </span> <span style="display: initial;">  PPF is engineered to be abrasion-resistant, making it more resilient to the day-to-day wear and tear that a vehicle’s exterior encounters. This resistance helps prevent the formation of scratches in the first place and contributes to the film’s ability to hide existing ones. </span> </li> </ol> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> It’s important to note that while PPF is effective in concealing minor scratches, it may not eliminate the visibility of deep or severe scratches. The self-healing process may take some time and is generally more effective for lighter scratches. Overall, the combination of self-healing technology, flexibility, thickness, transparency, and abrasion resistance makes PPF a formidable solution for maintaining a vehicle’s appearance by hiding and mitigating the impact of scratches. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> Specialty Films (Gloss black, carbon PPF, etc) </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> Specialty films, known as clear bra or paint protection fashion films, primarily carbon fiber or gloss black, can completely distract or cover up imperfections. Two examples from our own car: </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> When we bought our 2019 BMW i8 used, it had been poorly taken care of and all of the piano black trim was heavily swirled. On the trunk deck lid, there were bird droppings that had etched into the clear coat (bird poop is very acidic, and left on just about any automotive surface for any length of time, will cause problems, regardless of whether it has clear bra or ceramic coating). Because this defect was more significant, clear paint protection film was not enough to hide it. However, the trunk deck lid was gloss black, and putting black PPF fashion film on it (and later the carbon fiber PPF), it covered it entirely. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> The car also had an issue where a rock had hit the hood on the black-painted surface of the hood. In this case, it didn’t damage the paint but skipped across the surface and created two small dings and a scrape mark. Clear bra gloss transparent did disguise this to a certain extent. However, it became unnoticeable when we applied carbon fiber fashion film to the hood. This is likely for two reasons – one, the clear bra is opaque, and two, it has a pattern which likely disguises the change in appearance from the minor dings. The clear bra is not hiding or filling the dings – the pattern is tricking your eyes into not seeing the dings at all. </span> </p> </div> We will tell you about PPF hiding swirls in this article by Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings.

We have very good methods to remove both clear bra, vinyl wraps, and even ceramic coating from vehicles. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> There are methods you can use to minimize the amount of residue from vinyl wraps and clear bra/PPF/paint protection film, but there is bound to be some stuck behind. To remove the particularly stubborn adhesive residue, we use Rapid Remover, and it works wonders. But it is still a time-consuming process. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> For all of these removals, we charge by the hour. We have no desire to take more of your money than necessary, just as we don’t really want to spend all day removing vinyl or clear bra. It’s is a frustrating, and often time-consuming process (because we are being so careful).  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> We start at one hour of labor minimum, and then we charge by the hour afterwards. The scope of the job, the age of the clear bra or vinyl we are removing, the complexity of the removal (such as having to remove an entire bumper) and replacement, all factors into what the total cost might be. It’s hard to estimate in advance, especially if we don’t know how the film or vinyl was applied. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bold;"> LIFTING AND MORE </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> There is also, however slight, a chance that the paint could lift when removing old clear bra or vinyl wrap. This is more prevalent if the installer used an adhesive promoter and/or the painted surface was repainted at some point. Most non-OEM paint jobs do not interact well with vinyl wraps or clear bra installations, which is why most manufacturers only warranty work done to OEM paint surfaces. Unfortuantely, every body shop is different, and many cut corners with preparation that leads the paint to be more susceptible to issues when installing clear bra (or even ceramic coating). </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> We have yet to even find a single body shop in the Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights/Temple areas that we trust enough, that doesn’t take months and months to do the work, and is affordable for people getting general repairs (outside of full-body restorations). If you find the right body shop, please let us know, so we can partner with them or recommend them. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> See Us In Action </span> </h2> </div> Transform your vehicle's look with Harker Heights Ceramic Coating's expert clear bra and vinyl removal services in Killeen.

They rub and scratch against your paint more than anything should. Just like the video shows, they are slamming dirty mops against your car at all times. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Even touchless car washes use harsh chemicals that you cannot control. How many of these awful car washes do we have in the Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights area?! TOO MANY! </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;">  There’s no telling what chemicals will damage or strip the ceramic coating or PPF we have installed on your car. Additionally, the touchless car wash can often get the nozzles too close to your car/PPF, and can lift the seams or edges of the PPF. We try to wrap as many edges as possible on your vehicle, but sometimes seams are inevitable. Car washes can lift PPF or strip off the ceramic coating. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Not convinced that PPF &amp; ceramic coating is the way to go?

They try to ensure that your vehicle is between the “safe” areas – but sometimes it can rub your wheels, dent the vehicle, or we have even seen it rip off mirrors.

Compound and polish abrasives are designed to polish a vehicle, but bear in mind that ALL POLISHING removes SOME degree of your clear coat, which is 25-40 microns thick.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> Abrasives are synthetic or natural tiny pieces of grit – just like the dirt contained in the dirty mops slapping against your car. So, just like the polishing abrasive will remove the ceramic coating and remove some of your clear coat, a car wash will do the same.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> Over time, this will degrade your clearcoat, and the paint will begin to oxidize (dry out) and fade. If car washes damage your paint, they will also damage ceramic coating and PPF. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;"> If you want to see some car wash damage without PPF/ceramic coating, look at this older TikTok we did on this black Honda Accord. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> Car wash places to avoid that damage your PPF &amp; ceramic coating: </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <a href="https://www.google.com/search?q=car+wash&amp;oq=car+wash&amp;gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUqBggAEEUYOzIGCAAQRRg7MgYIARBFGDkyBwgCEAAYjwIyBwgDEAAYjwIyBwgEEAAYjwIyBggFEEUYPDIGCAYQRRg8MgYIBxBFGDzSAQc2OTBqMGo5qAIAsAIA&amp;sourceid=chrome&amp;ie=UTF-8#rlimm=8514172883927441060" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> Mister Car Wash </a> <span style="display: initial;">  and Today’s Car Wash are popular locations in our area.

This comes at the cost of ease of installation, however. Ceramic coatings “flash” – this is when we typically wipe off the excess. If you read about it, you might see a professional ceramic coating rainbow or similar. With a professional ceramic coating, the coating may flash quicker, or in some cases, it may not be evident that it is ready to be wiped (no rainbow). Since coatings are semi-permanent (they chemically bond to your car’s paint), this can be an issue. You would need a polisher and paint correction/paint enhancement to remove what we call “high spots” (spots that were excess material not wiped off in time). This sounds like a small deal, but it can be if you need the right equipment to fix it. On top of that, humidity and temperature play a large part. We have a climate-controlled shop which increases the time we have to work with a professional ceramic coating before it flashes, leading to less rushing and fewer mistakes. This also goes for clear bra installations, but we need to find out if anyone doing their own installations on those.  <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Professional Ceramic Coatings (Equipment/experience): </span> </h2> <p> <span style="display: initial;">   </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Equipment, experience, and preparedness. A ceramic coating from  </span> <a href="https://www.amazon.com/" target="_blank" style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Amazon </a> <span style="display: initial;">  is relatively inexpensive. However, you start adding up the cost of quality applicators, machine polishers if there are mistakes, or if you want to polish/conduct paint enhancement before coating, quality surface solvent prep solutions before applying the coating, clay bar, and clay bar lubrication solutions, good leveling towels, painters tape to tape off areas you don’t want to hit with the polisher – the list goes on and on. A pro who installs professional ceramic coatings has all of these things and uses them regularly. When doing it yourself, though, it adds up costs for things you rarely use as a non-professional. So you’re spending a lot of money on various things that you might use annually or less. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Time/Warranty: </span> </h2> <p> <span style="display: initial;">   </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Time.

While this makes them highly effective in repelling dirt and water, it can also make it challenging for adhesives to bond effectively. Adhesives typically adhere better to surfaces with some texture or roughness. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Chemical Resistance </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Ceramic coatings are designed to be chemically resistant to protect the underlying surfaces from various environmental factors. This chemical resistance can also extend to adhesives, making it harder for them to create a strong bond with the ceramic-coated surface. However, we can also use a product called acrysol (that we mentioned above) to prepare the surface. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Hydrophobic Properties </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Ceramic coatings often have hydrophobic properties, meaning they repel water. This can affect the ability of adhesives to wet the surface properly, which is crucial for establishing a strong bond. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Flexibility and Conformability </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Vinyl graphics, decals, and badges are designed to be flexible and conform to various surfaces, but the extreme smoothness and hardness of ceramic coatings might prevent them from properly adhering and conforming. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Temperature Resistance </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Ceramic coatings can withstand high temperatures (the Central Texas/Killeen-area sun is nothing) which means they might not be as conducive to the curing process of adhesives. Some adhesives require heat to set and bond properly, and the high temperatures that ceramic coatings can handle might interfere with this process. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> Preparation and Cleaning </span> <span style="display: initial;"> : Applying decals or vinyl graphics to any surface requires thorough cleaning and preparation. Ceramic-coated surfaces might have specific cleaning and preparation requirements that need to be followed meticulously for successful adhesion. Failure to properly clean and prepare the surface can result in poor adhesion. </span> </li> </ol> <p> <br/> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> WHAT HAPPENS IF I CHANGE MY MIND ABOUT VINYL GRAPHICS OVER CERAMIC-COATED SURFACES? </span> </h2> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Try to let us know in advance if you need to place graphics after the fact, such as on a track car. We can either polish that surface later for you so it will stick, use Acrysol as we mentioned, or plan around it. On our Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights area client’s RAM TRX Tyrant below, we removed the badges knowing the client had new badges on order, and we replaced the badges for them when they came in, using Acrysol or polish. <br/> </span> </p> </div> Discover the reason why stickers and decals don't stick to ceramic coated surfaces with expert insights from Harker Heights Ceramic Coating.

It’s easy to confuse ceramic coating that Chromatic Coatings does with ceramic coating we do. We ceramic coat cars, wheels, etc to make them easier to clean up. There is also a ceramic coating that goes on exhaust parts to make them cooler and keep engine bay temperature and similar down.  </a> </p> <p> <span style="color: var(--color_3); display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <a href="https://hhceramiccoatings.com/ceramic-coating-in-killeen-tx/" target="_blank" style="color: var(--color_3); display: initial; text-decoration: none;"> Listen, don’t blame us – we didn’t make the terms confusing! </a> </p> <p> <span style="color: var(--color_3); display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <a href="https://hhceramiccoatings.com/ceramic-coating-in-killeen-tx/" target="_blank" style="color: var(--color_3); display: initial; text-decoration: none;"> What is powder coating? Powder coating, unlike painting, uses dry powder applied electrostatically to a surface and then heated up to create a hard finish. You can use something like this to take, say, a silver wheel you got from the factory and (like these) have them changed to a satin black! </a> </p> <p> <span style="color: var(--color_3); display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <h2> <a href="https://hhceramiccoatings.com/ceramic-coating-in-killeen-tx/" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> Why would you want to ceramic coat your wheels? </a> </h2> <p> <a href="https://hhceramiccoatings.com/ceramic-coating-in-killeen-tx/" target="_blank" style="color: var(--color_3); display: initial; text-decoration: none;"> We include a ceramic coating of wheel faces on all of our ceramic coating packages, as well as glass.

Have you ever noticed how difficult it is to clean the other parts of the wheel? Now it will be much easier – in many cases you may be able to spray off and be satisfied with the results or spray some Americana Global wheel cleaner and have to use very little agitation to get it to clean. With a lot of newer vehicles including larger and larger brake calipers, it can be quite difficult to reach every spot on the wheel. </a> </li> <li style="color: var(--color_3);"> <a href="https://hhceramiccoatings.com/ceramic-coating-in-killeen-tx/" target="_blank" style="color: var(--color_3); display: initial; text-decoration: none;"> Brake dust has a lot of corrosive elements, especially iron. Brake dust can rust and even eat through the finish of your wheels. If you have ever seen a rough appearance that cannot be cleaned, a pitted appearance – you know that brake dust can eat through the wheel finish. It is best to ceramic coat your wheels prior to them even going on the vehicle. This will provide an added layer of protection to your car’s wheels right from the beginning. Besides the protection itself, being that it makes it easier to clean, you’re more likely to get small nooks and crannies between the spokes or barrel clean, which eliminates that corrosive dust that will degrade the wheels over time. </a> </li> <li style="color: var(--color_3);"> <a href="https://hhceramiccoatings.com/ceramic-coating-in-killeen-tx/" target="_blank" style="color: var(--color_3); display: initial; text-decoration: none;"> When the wheel is off the car, aside from being able to ceramic coat them easier, we are also able to clean and prepare them for coating easier. When wheels are on the car, even we cannot reach every single spot on the wheel, again, potentially because of the big brake kits. </a> </li> </ol> <p> <br/> </p> <p style="color: var(--color_3);"> <a href="https://hhceramiccoatings.com/ceramic-coating-in-killeen-tx/" target="_blank" style="color: var(--color_3); display: initial; text-decoration: none;"> Wheels off of the car can also be ceramic coated if they have tires on them. </a> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> See Us In Action </span> </h2> </div> Gain a comprehensive understanding of the Wheels Off Package and its significance with Harker Heights Ceramic Coating.

(the answer may surprise you!) </span> </h2> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> You’re here and expecting us to tell you that in Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights, the best ceramic auto coating is the one that we carry here at Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings! However, that isn’t what we are going to say!  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> The best ceramic auto coating is the ceramic coating that works, fits your budget, and lasts as long as you expect it to (with proper care). A quality ceramic coating: </span> </p> <ul> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Is hydrophobic (the auto coating repels water) </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Makes vehicle cleanup easier (we don’t want you to have to scrub at your paint to remove bug guts) </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Enhances the gloss of your vehicle </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Provides UV resistance (extends the life of your paint) <br/> </span> </li> </ul> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Why do you not specify the best ceramic auto coating? </span> </h2> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Anyone who promises you they have or know what the best ceramic auto coating is, is simply trying to sell you their product. There are THOUSANDS of options out there, and no one can try them all! </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> However, at Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings, we try EVERY product on our vehicles before we put them on a client’s vehicle. And that goes from ceramic coating, to clear bra, to detailing products, and more! That way, you are confident that you have the best ceramic auto coating – for YOU, and US! Why do we say “us?” Because, we are using the same coatings you are. The same clear bra you are. If we suggest a ceramic coating, it’s because we are also using it. In some cases, for testing purposes, we have multiple types, brands, and lengths of ceramic coating on one vehicle here. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Many ceramic coatings are actually all made in the same place, re-bottled, and re-sold. That’s not bad, assuming they are a good, professional, coating that works (see above)! Just remember that many coating companies are actually marketing companies that sell ceramic coatings. Just because one brand is marketed more than others doesn’t make it better. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> What ceramic coating companies have you heard of in the Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights area? </span> </h2> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Like we said above, there is no “best ceramic auto coating”, but you may have heard of many of the popular brands. Sometimes, brands like Ceramic Pro, become brand eponyms, which means their name becomes synonymous with the product they are selling. This is because the product is marketed so well, that people mistake a brand name for an actual product. An example everyone knows is Kleenex. We call tissue paper Kleenex, but really that is just a brand name. A similar situation in the detailing industry is to call all clear bra/paint protection film/PPF “Xpel” – but Xpel is simply a brand of film. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Some professional ceramic coating brands you might have heard of: </span> </p> <ul> <li> <a href="https://www.systemx.com/" target="_blank" style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> System X </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Ceramic Pro </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Feynlab </span> </li> <li> <a href="https://www.sb3coating.com/" target="_blank" style="display: initial; font-weight: bolder;"> SB3 Coatings </a> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Underdog (Undrdog) </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Gyeon </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Fireball </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> and much more </span> </li> </ul> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> So, how do we know what ceramic coating is best to choose from? </span> </h2> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Ultimately, there is no single best brand of ceramic auto coating because the choice of a brand depends on several factors such as specific use case, budget, and personal preference. Different brands offer different levels of durability, ease of application, and hydrophobic properties, among others. It is important to consider the desired outcome and do research on the available options to determine the best brand for the specific needs. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> See us coating in action! <br/> </span> </h2> </div> Exploring the best ceramic coating near you?

It is not the same thing as a clear bra – which is designed to protect against rock chips and scratches. A lot of marketing and other misleading information, unfortunately, boosts the potential of ceramic coating to include these protections, which are simply false. If anyone is telling you that ceramic coating will protect against rock chips – run away! </a> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <a href="https://hhceramiccoatings.com/ceramic-coating-in-killeen-tx/" target="_blank" style="text-decoration: none; color: var(--color_3); display: initial;"> Ceramic coating is an alternative to waxing. Even waxing is usually a generic term we use for sealant, as most wax as we think of it is not commonly used any longer by the auto detailing community.  </a> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <a href="https://hhceramiccoatings.com/ceramic-coating-in-killeen-tx/" target="_blank" style="text-decoration: none; color: var(--color_3); display: initial;"> As ceramic coating has increased in popularity, there have been so many brands popping up annually that we can’t even keep up! The biggest is probably Ceramic Pro. You might have heard of different brands – gtechniq, IGL, System X, SB3, and many more.  </a> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <a href="https://hhceramiccoatings.com/ceramic-coating-in-killeen-tx/" target="_blank" style="text-decoration: none; color: var(--color_3); display: initial;"> Many different brands tout hardness scales, what ingredients they’re made out of, contact angles, etc. </a> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <a href="https://hhceramiccoatings.com/ceramic-coating-in-killeen-tx/" target="_blank" style="text-decoration: none; color: var(--color_3); display: initial;"> The simplest understanding of ceramic coating is the coating bonds with the paint, and creates a semi-permanent coating that repels water and makes the vehicle easy to clean up. We can apply ceramic coating to just about any surface – glass, leather, plastic, paint (of course), metal, you name it. We apply ceramic coating regularly to wheels and wheel faces. Imagine how easy brake dust cleans off a wheel that has been ceramic coated.  </a> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <a href="https://hhceramiccoatings.com/ceramic-coating-in-killeen-tx/" target="_blank" style="text-decoration: none; color: var(--color_3); display: initial;"> We can even apply ceramic coating to leather shoes/purses, electronic screens, eyeglasses/sunglasses, countertops, sinks, appliances, and bathroom tile.  </a> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <a href="https://hhceramiccoatings.com/ceramic-coating-in-killeen-tx/" target="_blank" style="text-decoration: none; color: var(--color_3); display: initial;"> Typically ceramic coating will reduce fingerprints, and make cleanup easier with any product it is applied to. Does your bathroom sink get toothpaste gunk build-up? Do your shower tiles get build up? Do you get soap scum on the glass door of your shower? All of these things can be lessened by ceramic coatings, just like a ceramic coating will help you detail your vehicle.  </a> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> See Us In Action </span> </h2> </div> Explore the fascinating world of ceramic coating with Harker Heights Ceramic Coating.

We are, after all, a small shop that handles only one vehicle at a time. We have since switched to a system where we only use one layer at a time, and we use various professional level coatings such as Ceramic Pro, System X, SB3, R1, and more to ensure we reach your desired warranty level.  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;">   </span> </p> <h4> <span style="display: initial;"> Typically this is what our process looks like: </span> </h4> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Day 1: We prep your car by washing and detailing it. We then use iron and fallout remover and a clay bar to remove any embedded contaminants in the paint. We then tape off areas of the car we don’t want to polish, and we conduct either a one-step or two/three-step paint enhancement/paint correction.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Day 2: Depending upon the severity of the defects in your vehicle’s paint, we may take two days to correct the paint. We don’t want to spend this long on vehicles, but sometimes it can be necessary, especially if they have been ran through automatic car washes like Mister Car Wash or Today’s Car Wash in the Killeen / Copperas Cove / Harker Heights areas. We usually ask for this day, even if we don’t think we need it, just in case. We always want to under-promise and over-deliver our work to you.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> If we didn’t need this day for paint correction / paint enhancement, we usually ceramic coat your vehicle in the morning. If the weather is good with zero chance of rain, we release the vehicle to you. Typically, we like the vehicle to cure for 24 hours so the ceramic coating cannot get wet.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Day 3: Sometimes we try to keep the vehicle an extra day if we know the paint might need extra time to cure or additional services are needed. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> This is a general guideline on timeline to conduct auto detailing, paint enhancement, and ceramic coating. Sometimes, we might see an expedited timeline or even a delayed timeline. This is the best timeline we can guess for you prior to seeing the vehicle. Usually the biggest issue we have in meeting this timeline is the aforementioned Mister / Today’s Car Wash (automatic car washes in near us). </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> See Us In Action </span> </h2> </div> Learn how long the ceramic coating process takes and what to expect with Harker Heights Ceramic Coating's expert guide.

This feature makes it easier to clean a car after ceramic coating because the coating creates a smooth, slick surface that prevents contaminants from sticking to the car’s paint. Dirt, grime, and other debris can be easily removed with a gentle wash using a pH-neutral car soap. This also ensures water and other liquids will bead up and slide off the car’s surface. Note: ceramic coating does NOT mean you can avoid washing. Dirt, grime, and other contaminants will still be on the car after ceramic coating – but it makes it EASIER to clean. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Additionally, the slick surface can help prevent contaminants from embedding themselves into the car’s paint. When a car is not ceramic coated, it makes them more difficult to remove. In this case, thee scrubbing action during removal means you are more likely to damage the paint with scratches or swirls. Therefore, the ceramic coating makes them glossier and keeps their new appearance for longer. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> How does ceramic coating cars/trucks/SUVs work? <br/> </span> </h2> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> In our other ceramic coating FAQ page, we talked about how a ceramic coating fills in the peaks and valleys of your car’s paint, making dirt and contaminants easier to remove.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> As we mentioned above, this is what makes the vehicle easier to clean after ceramic coating. And it’s not just vehicle paint, either. All of this can work for metal, plastics, wheels (powder coated or painted), brake calipers, glass, and more. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Does that mean you don't need to wash your car afterward? </span> </h2> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </h2> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Unfortunately, ceramic coating doesn’t mean they don’t need to be cleaned afterward. Dirt and grime will still get on the vehicle. Brake dust will still get on the wheels and calipers. What ceramic coating cars DOES do, is makes them not STICK as much, meaning it cleans up much easier. This keeps the vehicle looking new and makes everyone more inclined to wash them (because it takes less time out of our busy schedules). </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Ceramic coating cars/trucks/SUVs - does that mean you can go through a car wash? </span> </h2> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Ceramic coating cars and then taking them through a car wash invalidates any warranty by any manufacturer. This is because most automatic car washes use (dirty) brushes or other abrasive materials to scrub the car’s surface, which can scratch or damage the ceramic coating (and the vehicle’s clearcoat). </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Ceramic coatings are designed to create a protective layer on top of the car’s paint, which helps to repel water and other contaminants. However, ceramic coating does not make them immune to damage, and abrasive materials can still cause scratches or other types of damage to the coating (and paint). </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> To maximize the lifespan of the ceramic coating and maintain the appearance of the car, we highly recommend hand washing (or using a pressure washer/hose). This helps to reduce the risk of damage after ceramic coating cars and keep them looking its best for as long as possible. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> It IS possible, although not recommended, to run the car through a touchless car wash. We don’t recommend using a touchless car wash for several reasons. </span> </p> <ul> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> They tend to use harsher chemicals to remove dirt, which might shorten the lifespan of the ceramic coating over time. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Many touchless car washes do not have spot-free water and an adequate drying system, which can leave water spots or dried water streaks on the car. </span> </li> </ul> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Convinced?

If you have ever tried to get Texas bugs off the front of your vehicle driving to and from Austin from Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights, you know how much you have to rub the paint. Rubbing the paint will cause swirls and scratches. So in a sense, ceramic coating DOES prevent that effort, which itself scratches the paint.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: unset;"> However, in the sense that ceramic coating ITSELF provides a barrier against swirls and scratches – it does NOT. To prevent swirls and scratches, you must install clear bra/PPF/paint protection film. Nor does ceramic coating fill in swirls and scratches.

There are many methods to wash your vehicle safely, but we have a few tips for you. NOTE: If you need to pressure wash your vehicle, just follow the instructions in the clear bra aftercare video located here: </span> <a href="https://youtu.be/l24bcIjfvlA" target="_blank" style="display: initial; font-weight: normal;">  https://youtu.be/l24bcIjfvlA </a> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;">   </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Even though the clear bra / paint protection film aftercare video is talking about keeping a pressure washer nozzle a few feet from the paint and not on a narrow degree tip, it is a generally good idea to avoid getting too close with a pressure washer tip in general and can still apply to ceramic coating.  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;">   </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> You already made the right decision to ceramic coat and/or clear bra your vehicle, so we are on the right track to easy cleanup when you detail your vehicle. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;">   </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> A reminder that you can receive 10% off aftercare products at americanaglobal.com using the code HHCC10.

Let it soak a few minutes. Use a sponge or wash mitt (we use a really soft Autofiber mitt, which you can find on Amazon – they are a detailer, trying to help other detailers, so we try to support small businesses that we know) to lightly, in a straight pattern working from up to down, wipe off the dirt or grime. Next, spray rinseless wash again, and gently clean off with a plush microfiber towel, flipping to dry afterward. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <h4> <span style="display: initial;"> If the car is really dirty </span> </h4> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> You can spray waterless or rinseless wash on the dirt and then rinse it using a pressure washer. Keep the tip a few feet from the vehicle, 3ft is usually a safe distance, and we use a 40-degree pressure washer tip. This is all to be as safe as possible for your paint. We use an MTM soap/foam cannon afterward to soap up the paint. We then GENTLY wipe the soap with our autofiber mitt, and then rinse off again.

Of course, we think they’re worth it! The first thing to understand about professional ceramic car coating is it makes clean-up so easy. What you see in the video is System X MAX 10-year ceramic coating on the hood of our BMW i8. While we love System X MAX, all of our ceramic coatings make cleanup so much easier.  <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Ok, so how does a professional ceramic car coating work? </span> </h2> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Your paint is made out of peaks and valleys. It doesn’t look like it to the naked eye, but it isn’t a perfectly smooth piece of material. You can see it over  </span> <a href="https://www.detailingwiki.org/detailing-miscellaneous/polished-cars-stay-cleaner/" target="_blank" style="display: initial;"> here </a> <span style="display: initial;">  at Detailing Wiki, which has a picture of polished and unpolished paint surfaces as viewed from under a microscope. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Automotive paint, peaks and valleys, and how ceramic coating can (slightly) prevent swirling </span> </h2> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> As you can see in the picture, or our embedded YouTube video, the way a professional car ceramic coating works, is it attempts to fill many of the peaks and valleys of the paint. When the paint is smoother, it is less likely to trap these contaminants (or pollutants).  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> This means that the paint is less likely to hold dirt, making it easier, and safer, to clean. If you recall from our other question/video, the more you have to work to clean paint, the more likely you are to scratch it. This is how ceramic coating protects against scratches. It’s a different level of protection than a clear bra, but it does add a slight layer.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-weight: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-weight );"> More importantly, you’re not scrubbing the paint and less likely to damage it, with a professional car ceramic coating.  </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> BENEFITS OF PROFESSIONAL CAR CERAMIC COATING </span> </h2> <p> <br/> </p> <ul> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Easy cleanup of bugs, bird poop, road grime, brake dust </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Enhanced gloss/shine after ceramic coating (add paint correction for even better shine) </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Minor wash swirl protection due to easier cleanup </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> UV and chemical resistance from ceramic coating, which extend the life of the vehicle clear coat </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Repels water (hydrophobic) </span> </li> </ul> <p> <br/> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> How much will ceramic coating protect against scratching and swirling? </span> </h2> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> The truth is – not that much. A professional car ceramic coating provides a VERY small amount of protection, if any, against swirling and scratching. Many companies claim that it does, but it does not. It works to reduce swirling and scratching as mentioned above.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> This is especially true if you are very aggressive with your vehicle washing and drying, use improper washing techniques, or use an automatic car wash, like Today’s Car Wash or Galaxy Car Wash in the Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights area.  <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Does this mean you don't have to wash your car after a ceramic coating? </span> </h2> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> As much as I wish a professional car ceramic coating made you not have to wash your vehicle – you still do. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Even after applying a professional ceramic coating, washing your car regularly is necessary to maintain its appearance and protect the coating. The ceramic coating provides a barrier of protection against contaminants, but it is not impervious to dirt, grime, and other substances that can accumulate on the vehicle’s surface over time. Regular washing helps to remove these contaminants and prevent them from etching into the surface, which can cause permanent damage to the coating. Additionally, regular washing helps to maintain the shine and overall appearance of the vehicle, ensuring that it continues to look its best for years to come. <br/> </span> </p> </div> Discover the advanced, long-lasting benefits of professional ceramic car coatings compared to traditional waxes and sealants.

Unfortunately, you do! </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Listen, we hate washing and maintaining our vehicles as much as the next person! Bug guts, bird droppings, Texas pollen, you name it! This is why, on our vehicles, we have both ceramic coatings as well as clear bra. We have the ease of cleanup from the ceramic coating, and we have the clear bra to protect the paint from scratches if we are trying to clean it up quickly. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> It does make it easier when you have either a ceramic coating or a clear bra (or both) on your vehicle, but unfortunately, that doesn’t mean you can skip taking care of it. Especially in the first few weeks as the ceramic coating cures and/or the clear bra dries and bonds, you need to be especially aware of things like bird droppings, bug guts, and water spots.  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> We don’t want to discourage you from choosing to ceramic coat your vehicle, but we do want you to be aware of some things (please note that all of these issues are more easily cleaned up with ceramic coating!): </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> The Main Reasons </span> </h2> <ol> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Hard water and sprinkler systems especially can leave water spots in the paint, even with ceramic coating. The total dissolved solid count (how water is measured for “hardness” or how water is determined to have too many minerals and the like) hovers around 250 for Harker Heights. We assume Killeen/Copperas Cove/Temple/Nolanville are all the same or similar. This is why we have a reverse osmosis system at our shop. If your sprinklers are hitting the vehicle and then drying in the sun, even ceramic coating won’t protect it. If you get water spots in your paint that you didn’t wipe away immediately, you can try to use vinegar to remove the leftover minerals before they damage the paint. </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Bird droppings are incredibly acidic. Did you know that birds do not have a stomach and bladder that separate their solids and wastes? The waste is mixed together in an organ called the cloaca, and contain a very high amount of uric acid. Bird droppings can not only easily eat through ceramic coating and damage a clear bra, but they can even damage the paint. If you catch the droppings early enough where they might have only topically etched the paint, an auto detailer such as us, of course, can usually take care of it with a compound and polish. If they have eaten further into the paint (known as wrinkle etching), the only solution is to repaint the panel. The moral of the story is to remove bird droppings ASAP! </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Bug guts. Bug guts are often acidic as well, which is why sometimes you will see them damaging the clear coat and etching into the paint much like bird poop. The summer with the Central Texas heat is big risk factor! </span> </li> <li> <span style="display: initial;"> Tree sap. Tree sap is a little bit of a slower process, but with temperatures in the Killeen area soaring into the triple digits already in May, the process speeds up. Tree sap can also leave your clear coat damaged. Tree sap, in general, can often be a difficult removal process, even more so than your typical auto detailer would provide.  </span> </li> </ol> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> See Us In Action </span> </h2> </div> Find out if you need to wash your vehicle after ceramic coating with Harker Heights Ceramic Coating's expert guide.

There are many claims on the internet about ceramic coating protecting against chips, dings, and other hazards. These claims about ceramic coating are entirely false.  </span> </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: unset;"> If you are primarily looking for rock chip and scratch protection for your new vehicle, ceramic coating is not what you want. You are looking for clear bra. </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> What about scratches? </span> </h2> <p style="line-height: 1.2;"> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Ceramic coating and its ability to protect your vehicle from scratching is a little bit of a more complicated answer. If you compare the protection of a clear bra vs. ceramic coating when it comes to scratches, it’s not even remotely the same level of protection. It is true that ceramic coating chemically bonds to your vehicle’s paint, creating an additional layer of a glass-like substance. However, this layer is very thin and not primarily designed for protection, unlike clear bra, which is essentially a sacrificial protective layer of film for your vehicle. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Ceramic coating provides a small level of protection as an added benefit. Ceramic coating makes the vehicle’s paint slicker and more hydrophobic. It makes cleanup a lot easier. Contaminants are less likely to stay attached to the paint. This means it requires less effort to clean and, therefore, is less likely to scratch the paint. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Think about a bug that hits your front bumper in the Texas heat while driving on I35. You spend the day in 100+ degree temperatures at The Domain in Austin and return home to Kileen. It’s late, so you clean up the car the next day. Without ceramic coating, you may be trying to scrub that dead bug off of your paint that sat in the heat all day, therefore using more effort. When this occurs, you are more likely to scratch your paint. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Now, imagine you have your vehicle ceramic coated. When you get home to Killeen or Copperas Cove from Austin, you know your vehicle is a lot easier to keep clean. You notice that bug as your park your car in the garage, and you easily wipe it off. Now your vehicle is less likely to be scratched. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> You can apply this anecdote to many issues we face with our non-ceramic coated vehicles, from dirt to bird droppings, to bugs. It’s important to understand that this is how the vehicle truly gets the most protection from scratches from a ceramic coating. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> What about just regular scratches? </span> </h2> <p style="line-height: 1.2;"> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> No, not really. There is, of course, some degree of protection when you add an additional layer of nano ceramic coating onto a vehicle. However, the ceramic coating is so thin that you aren’t providing much protection. If you rub hard on paint to remove a bird dropping, it will scratch whether or not the vehicle is ceramic coated. If it has a clear bra, it will be protected. Having a clear bra and ceramic coating gives you the most protection and effortless cleanup. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> Aren’t you just trying to sell me more expensive things? </span> </h2> <p style="line-height: 1.2;"> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> No, we aren’t. Anyone that works with our company knows that we tell people not to spend money unnecessarily. However, when other ceramic coating companies make false claims about the level of protection that ceramic coating offers, it jeopardizes our clients’ satisfaction. We do not want you to get a ceramic coating, thinking that it provides the same level of protection as a clear bra, only to be disappointed in the money you have spent. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> See Us In Action </span> </h2> </div> Curious about ceramic coatings and their defense against rock chips and scratches? Let Harker Heights Ceramic Coating, TX explains this important matter. faq Ceramic Coating Does ceramic coating hide scratches? 2022-06-13T04:07:00Z 2022-06-13T04:07:00Z <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h1> <span style="display: initial; text-decoration: none; text-shadow: none;"> Does ceramic coating hide scratches? </span> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </h1> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> No. Quite the opposite, actually. Much like our question and answer where we talked about all of the false information surrounding ceramic coatings and whether they protect against rock chips and scratches, we also see a lot of false information saying they FILL scratches.  </span> </p> <p> <span style="font-weight: normal; display: initial;"> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Ceramic coating, unlike clear bra (which fills minor swirls), is more likely to amplify imperfections (or lack thereof) due to the nature of the material drying/bonding like a glass surface. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> This is why it is key to ensure your paint is how you would like it to look prior to having us install ceramic coating. That goes for anything from having your panels repainted at an auto body shop, or having us conduct paint enhancement/paint correction/detailing of your vehicle. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> We will always ask you how you feel about your paint when we are discussing pricing, packages, and ceramic coating options, as well as your overall goals with ceramic coating (usually we want to make sure you are looking for ceramic coating and not clear bra, and make sure that you are not hoping to get clear bra benefits from ceramic coating).  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> It is true that ceramic coatings can enhance or deepen paint colors, but typically the biggest change in the appearance of the paint is due to the preparation prior to installing the ceramic coating (polishing, compounding, clay bar, decontamination, etc). In the same manner, lack of preparation before ceramic coating, or not attending to scratches/swirl marks prior to, could also highlight them. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <h2> <span style="display: initial;"> That doesn’t mean that paint enhancement is required for everyone. </span> </h2> <p style="line-height: 1.2;"> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Many purists or detailers may be shocked to learn that paint enhancement is not for everyone. Conducting paint correction before we install ceramic coating adds a certain cost to the service, more time, and frankly – may not be necessary for everyone.  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Some clients, for example, just need their work vehicle to be easy to clean to present a professional appearance. They don’t need the vehicle be scratch-free, but they don’t want to arrive at a job site with a dirty vehicle. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Other people simply are not concerned with scratching or swirling. They want their vehicle to be clean and easy to clean, but may not see or care about the swirling.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> There is nothing wrong with that! We can ceramic coat your vehicle without conducting paint correction.  </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> See Us In Action </span> </h2> </div> Discover the truth about whether ceramic coating can hide scratches with Harker Heights Ceramic Coating's expert guide.

We have ceramic coatings that work on leather, textile (carpet or cloth seats), and plastic. Sometimes we have multiple options such as Ceramic Pro Leather/Plastic/Textile, or we can use SB3 coatings which work equally as well. Oftentimes people will use Ceramic Pro 9H (or SB3 Omega) to coat leather to give an even superior (albeit more expensive) protection. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;">   </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Ceramic coatings on interior surfaces like leather/carpet/plastic create a water-repellant effect which also helps when you spill coffee, or junior spills something in the back seat.  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;">   </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> We can even install clear bra / paint protection film on some interior pieces, like scratch-prone screens and surfaces.

The way a ceramic coating is removed is usually by an abrasive substance like a compound or polish. So you can imagine that a lot of foot traffic serves to rub the ceramic coating off so quickly that it isn’t worth it to install in the first place on those mats. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;">   </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Also ask us about ceramic coating and/or clear bra’ing the door jambs of your car to reduce scratching while getting in and out, and making it yet another surface that is easy to clean. Note that clear bra does not work well or look right on textured plastic surfaces, such as some door sills common on most cars, but it can work on the painted portions. </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <span style="display: unset;"> See Us In Action </span> </h2> </div> Preserve your vehicle's interior excellence with Harker Heights Ceramic Coating.

However, while we cannot guarantee that clear bra will hold up on track (it’s possible, but not it’s intended use, but should definitely provide great protection).

We then finished it up with a five-year ceramic coating to make cleanup easier. This is the absolute best way to get your paint protection film installed – almost straight from the factory. With the construction on I-35 and other roads in Texas, coupled with Texas’ higher speed limits (vehicles kicking up debris or trucks dropping debris off the back and higher velocities), as well as the aggressive sporty stance of the M8 Competition, this was a no-brainer. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> The 625 horsepower coupe with its Steptronic transmission is surely a blast to drive. While we didn’t test-drive our client’s car (and never do), it sure did sound very throaty and mean when we turned it on to move it! </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Despite having a very complicated back/trunk pattern in our system, our Graphtec 9000 clear bra plotter handled the job well, and after some puzzle-solving, we were able to get it to work without any disassembly. Some installers have reported that removing BMW Competition spoilers from deck lids has lifted or chipped paint due to some of the construction being done with glue as opposed to tape. We opted to pattern around the spoiler to avoid any issues. With the massive amount of supply chain issues out there right now, the last thing we want to do is break OEM parts that may be on backorder from BMW forever.  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <h3> <span style="display: initial;"> WE HAVE A TRUE PASSION FOR OUR WORK........ </span> </h3> <h3> <br/> </h3> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Another great choice was to ceramic coat the vehicle. Ceramic coating a vehicle after a clear bra installation is a good idea, as the ceramic gets into crevices and makes edges and other crevices easier to clean up. All of our PPF is mostly hydrophobic (meaning, it repels water similarly to ceramic coatings), but where the PPF ends in those small strips makes ceramic coating a smart move, especially on a white vehicle. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> This 2022 BMW M8 with Full Body Clear Bra Installation will be back to Hammerdown Motorsports in Leander at a later date for a ton of performance upgrades.

For this reason, we had a full body clear bra (PPF, paint protection film) on our 2014 C7 Corvette Stingray Z51, a nearly full body installation of clear bra on our 2020 Ford Explorer (HHCC company vehicle), and now our 2019 BMW i8 Roadster. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> The BMW i8 is a unique supercar, being the first of its kind to offer a hybrid AWD system.

Not every installation is a completely seamless installation. Sometimes, curves or parts of the car are so severe that they require what are called “relief cuts”, due to the fact that the stress/tension on certain areas are likely to lift the material. The rear bumper requires a triangle-shaped relief cut. We did keep this cut, but eventually we installed STEK high gloss carbon fiber “fashion” clear bra, where we needed to patch it so it looked whole. Sometimes this is required.  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> The second difficult area was the overhand of the rear quarter panels on the BMW i8. It is a similar overhang to the Ford GT, although there is even less room on the i8. We had to use one of Mike’s specialty tools to finish this job. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Initially, we installed Legend paint protection film on the car from head to toe. Eventually, we replaced all of the gloss black painted areas on the car with the STEK high gloss carbon fiber clear bra.  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Just a short bit of time later, we had an issue where a neighborhood kid hit the car with a bicycle (see video below). The paint protection film was damaged, BUT – we pulled it back and NOTHING was damaged underneath.

Tesla Model Y Ceramic Pro Kavaca Paint Protection Film Installation 2022-01-17T19:03:00Z 2022-01-17T19:03:00Z <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <h4> <span style="display: initial;"> Tesla Model Y “Track Pack” Ceramic Pro Kavaca Paint Protection Film Installation </span> </h4> <h4> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </h4> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> One very well-documented issue that owners experience with their Tesla’s is thin or finicky paint, which is prone to defects and other issues that make them prime candidates for clear bra/paint protection film. Much like how General Motors has to make some sacrifices to bring the Corvette and Corvette Z06 to the public for affordable prices (compared to their supercar counterparts like Porsche 911 and others), Tesla needs to be able to try and bring the Tesla Model 3 to the masses so people can afford an electric vehicle (EV). We step in to solve this problem by installing our Ceramic Pro Kavaca Paint Protection Film. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> As a whole, one of the most popular brands that seeks out PPF is Tesla and Tesla owners. Many owners decide to bring their Teslas straight to clear bra installers from the vehicle lot before they can get rock chips from highway driving. In this instance, this Tesla Model Y performance owner received a rock chip in the front bumper fairly early on in ownership and decided they didn’t want a second or subsequent chips. So popular is clear bra with Tesla owners that one of our next vehicles is also a Tesla Model Y in the same exact color (but that one will be a Long Range model). So you may have deja vu if you follow our social media pages (@hhceramiccoatings on </span> </span> <a href="https://www.instagram.com/hhceramiccoatings" style="display: initial;" target="_blank"> Instagram </a> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> , </span> </span> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/hhceramiccoatings" style="display: initial;" target="_blank"> Facebook </a> <span style="display: initial;"> <span style="display: initial;"> , and </span> </span> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@hhceramiccoatings" style="display: initial;" target="_blank"> Tiktok </a> <span style="display: initial;"> ). That particular Tesla Model Y will not even be driven on the street (except to drive from Copperas Cove at the owner’s house to Harker Heights) prior to us installing paint protection film.  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <h4> <span style="display: initial;"> Installation </span> </h4> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> At first glance, looking at the Model Y, or any Tesla for that matter, you might think that the front bumper is a very easy installation (as we did), but it is not. The bumper is a very large and wide bumper, and due to the nature of Ceramic Pro Kavaca Paint Protection Film software patterns, there is a tendency to need to stretch the material. Having an exact-match is not conducive to finishing off an installation, as it leaves excessive material “fingers” and other issues. So how PPF pattern manufacturers overcome this, is by having installers stretch the material. In the instance of the Tesla Model Y, it is quite a stretch and proved to be far more difficult of an install than would otherwise be expected.  </span> </p> </div> <div> <img src="https://irp.cdn-website.com/f8cd5085/dms3rep/multi/IMG_0437-scaled-1-1024x768-e9f7e118.jpg" alt="A woman is working on a car in a garage."/> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: initial; font-style: italic; color: var(--color_1);"> Here you see Patricia prepping the vehicle for paint protection film. Prep work is a very important part of the process. You are not just prepping the parts you are covering, but you are flushing out debris and dirt from crevices and adjacent body panels. For example, when covering this hood with clear bra, we needed to ensure that the windshield, cowl, and wiper areas were also clean. Why? Because most hoods are not straight lines at the top. Therefore, the film might be close to the corners but drape over the back during the initial lay down of film. If the film touches dirt in the cowl area, as the water / slip solution runs down the film, it will bring dirt and debris with it. In this particular instance, Patricia is steaming around the headlights after we had already cleaned the area. </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Certain bumpers are far more difficult than others for various reasons, such as the stretch, or nooks and crannies that are sharp or difficult turns that make attaching the film difficult.  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Installing clear bra on a hood is generally the easiest and fastest in our experience, with exceptions, of course. Here, the bumper on this Tesla Model Y Performance was the most difficult. The pattern we cut on our Graphtec FC9000-160 plotter was 103″ long and still needed to be stretched quite a few inches.  </span> </p> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </p> <h3> <span style="display: initial;"> What we installed </span> </h3> <h3> <span style="display: initial;"> Ceramic Pro Kavaca Paint Protection Film </span> </h3> <h3> <span style="display: initial;"> <br/> </span> </h3> <p> <span style="display: initial;"> Probably the most popular clear bra package that people choose is “full front.” On a full front package, it includes the front bumper, fenders, hood, headlights, and mirrors. For a few hundred dollars extra we add partial or full A pillar protection as well as rocker panels. Many people classify this as a “track package” – although there is no exact industry standard. We call it a track package because it’s largely covering every single place where you might get a rock chip if you were driving the vehicle on a track. In the case of Teslas, many owners opt to have the full track pack PPF installed, as they are known to get rock chips in their rocker panels.  <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div> <img src="https://irp.cdn-website.com/f8cd5085/dms3rep/multi/Telsa-Model-Y-PPF-Bumper-scaled-1-9a43c049.jpg" alt="A blue tesla model 3 is parked in a garage"/> </div> <div style="transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;" data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span style="display: unset; font-style: italic; color: var(--color_1);"> This Tesla bumper is mostly laid down with the initial fit.
