Chemical Guys WAC232 Carbon Force Ceramic Protective Paint Coating System, Includes 1 Carbon Force (1 fl oz), 3 MircoSuede Applicators

Fantastic finish, looks great and was much easier to apply than anticipated. Take your time, work one section at a time, and the results are amazing on paint, chrome, and lights.

First of all, I have a 2018 Audi Q7. So, the paint isn’t exactly new. I’ve seen a lot of reviews on what it looks like after applied initially. Well, I applied this on 12/23/23. It is now 01/04/24 and this is after the first wash. So, you get the almost 2 weeks after pics.I will say it does a phenomenal job. Even washing is easier. My microfiber mit feels like it glides over the paint and what used to take lots of scrubbing comes off easily now. I use a blower to dry and water just beads off so easily.You must do the prep work like everyone else says. Temp ranged from 45-50 degrees. I went…1. Wash2. Iron remover3. Clay bar4. PolishAll on the first day. Next day, in the garage, I applied the 50/50 alcohol/water to remove all other contaminants and then applied the carbon force. It was pretty easy. MAKE SURE you use multiple microfiber towels when buffing off! At minimum 3. They will get excess on them and make it harder when buffing off. Here’s where I would change one thing. I watched multiple videos from Chemical Guys wondering when to apply the 2nd coat. All I found was one video saying 3 hours. DON’T! I did and that was the hardest part. Wait at least 12 hours to apply the 2nd coat. I was able to apply the 2nd coat when I did it just was extremely hard to buff off. Very tacky. Waited until the next day and then did all the rest of the glass. Gave it basically 3 days to cure and this is what you see. You obviously don’t have to wait that long. But, I had the time being it was Christmas and everyone was at our house. (Yes, I wanted to be outside while all the craziness was going on inside) I used about 3/4 of the bottle.Hope this helps someone. It is a great product. You just have to have the time and patience

I've used this product on 5 cars now. One bottle was sufficient for all 5. One warning is to be diligent when wiping the product completely off as the directions say. I had to go over a few places on the first cars I did because I did not do that, even though I thought I did. It required polishing compound to remove it from those areas and do them over. Do smaller rather than larger sections. I have the process down now and spend much more time wiping it off.Also, do not shortcut the prep. The surface should be perfect, or at least how you want it to be long-term when you apply it. If not, as with any ceramic coating, you will ceramic in the imperfections.If you are willing to put in the time it, will reward you with a lasting, hard, beautiful surface.

I am very impressed with this ceramic coating overall. The ease of use is insane a monkey could do it and they have a very easy to understand YouTube video. I have seen a few people cite streaks (I used multiple microfiber towels) and that fixed the issue for me maybe they’re using one towel per vehicle.I was very satisfied with the end result it lets off a super shine with a very professional appearance. On a budget or a consumer this product would be perfect. I recommend doing 2 coats. I also recommend waiting 1 min compared to 30 seconds they cite in the video.

Thoroughly cleaned the car and buffed out the paint with chemical guy paint polish and applied this ceramic coat. It went in easily and the end results were stunning. Extremely pleased with the shine and finish. Would highly recommend this product for a professional looking ceramic coat finish. As with any ceramic coating, I would encourage the user to get to know the product and do some testing before going live on your car as it does take some knowhow to get a professional looking end result. Not the cheapest product on the market but like most things in life you get what you pay for.

Took some time but cars look great! Glossy and smoooooth!

My wife got a 21 Mini convertible S and I was going to use this on our new Tesla Y, but thought her car needed it more it was very easy to use the small bottle had enough ceramic liquid to do her car twice and the front of the Tesla.Might get another and do the whole TeslaCheck out this shine!!!

Works great. Take you time applying this product and be sure to wipe the car down
