    Spent a long time doing paint correction and ceramic coating. I still have to top it with an sio2 sealant, probably carpro reload or hydro2. It looks so good right now, I can't even imagine how shiny it will be after i seal it. This color is tough to maintain but damn does it look good when its clean

    Looking to add AVS shades, but I’m all about looks. Post pics if you have them to help me pull the trigger on some.

    I have Weather Tech, not AVS, but whoever you go with, I prefer the in-channel versus over the window style.

    I also have the Weather Tech in-channel style. It was tricky getting them in without having the windows rub as they're being rolled up (front ones).

    I have the AVS in window channel visors and the hood deflector. They fit perfectly and I love the look.AVS 1.jpg AVS 2.jpg AVS 3.jpg

    My recommendation is to go Hydro2. Reload doesn't last nearly as long and much more labor intensive to apply. It's just Hydro2 is a bit pricey.
    Ceramic coated by truck here too and had to do quite a bit of paint correction. It's been 2 years now since I applied it.

    Thanks for all the pictures! Still not 100% on them so gonna order them up and put them on for a second. If I like them, I’ll jeep them. Never really considered the weather techs til now but going to pull the trigger on AVS. Will update with pics when they arrive.

    I really don't think you will be disappointed with the AVS...

    I ended up using the hydro2 and topped it with beadmaker. I will do reload again in a couple months before winter then hydro2 once mid winter.
    Weird...I have found that the reload seems to last longer than the hydro2. I use both on a fairly regular basis and always seem to get steaks with hydro2 and end up buffing them out with ech2o/reload mixture. I think its likely due to it usually being hot outside when I am applying it and it starting to dry on its own. But the reload seems to outlast the hydro2 for me every time.
    Recently did a truck for my brother and used jescar powerlock, I can't wait to see how long that lasts. Not as easy to use but it was pretty easy on and off and it looks really good.
