    Hi all, my question is about the ceramic coating. Did you put any on your track? I contacted several dealers and they are all trying to defend "their" brands - Ceramic Pro, Opticoat, CQuartz, etc. Anyone has any info on the pros vs cons of the different products out there? I am planning to do some light off roading, and I do realize that nothing is 100% scratch-resistant, but what would be the best paint protection product? I just want to research before I jump into anything.

    I know Opticoat and CQuartz are quality products. You would probably get better feedback on Autogeek's forum.

    I too am looking into this for my 4runner. Did you get any of the answers you needed? So curious as to which one you choose to go with.
