    Okay fan boys get ready. I own chemical guys and Adams products, but I was wondering if anybody has experience with ceramic coating. Chemical guys has theirs that’s called carbon flex C9 and provides protection for up to 36 months with healing using a heat gun. Seems excessive the 36 months but I’ll move on. Also they say you can use it on paint, glass, trim, and wheels.

    Adams polishes ceramic paint coat provide protection for up to a year and no mention of healing properties. It’s ONLY for paint. You’d have to buy the other kits for trim and wheels.

    Chemical guys C9 cost $150.

    Adams polishes also come out to $150, but includes prep spray and booster.

    I've tried almost every brand of detailers on the market over the years, (chemical guy, meguires, etc) and griot's seems to be the best well rounded products. The other brands may claim to work better than the next brand but griot's garage products work pretty darn good IMO. Their products work great together and have a very informative website with tutorials.
