Cerakote Rapid Ceramic Paint Sealant

[Dan]

I`ve only seen a few videos on FB that some have posted and it looks very hydrophobic. I highly doubt it will last that long though based on the price. Could be a good topper, or stand alone if you frequently apply it.

Price doesn`t relate to durability. Mr Fixx is $7, looks decent and lasts over a year.

FWIW:

"I will say, our Rapid Ceramic Paint Sealant is designed, manufactured, and sold in-house here in the USA.
It’s a water-based ceramic solution, so it’s not designed to be compared to other ceramics that are more wipe-on oriented.

This is designed to be much more user friendly with professional results at a reasonable price. I can investigate seeing if we can provide the details on beading contact angle and any other helpful data related information.
Yes, the coating can be stacked onto itself if desired."

Interesting that I was in a sports bar the other week and the Cerakote Paint Coating commercial came on. I was surprised. It happy to see it. I hope it works well and can’t wait until others give feedback. I bought 303 Graphene to use when I clean vehicles for friends or family.

Well I think this stuff has passed the test of time so I ordered a bottle. Selling point was the slickness which seems to be unique in these spray “coatings” Report to follow.

Finally had some time to try this stuff out, just a few random thoughts on application, will report back on durability and performance.

+ applies easily, not grabby
+ no streaking
+ a little goes a long way
=neutral looks, adds a little gloss and depth, nothing over the top
= light odor, smells like elmers glue and a hint of vinegar
- the sprayer is one of those micro misters meaning you will inhale about as much as gets on your paint
- not as slick as advertised. Its more smooth but lacks that crazy slickness some of us like. Overall it feels like a dry sealant like Zaino, but definitely more slick than a traditional coating.

I have it applied on most of my wife`s car with a control area of one of my fav`s, TW SnS, which is much, much slicker.

I`m also trying out their new tire coating at the same time. So far applies easily, but dry/clean tires need a second coat.

Ha, who knew Cerakote had a tire coating, let us know how it works out. Not that I don`t have enough tire coating to probably last me the rest of my life.

I have so much tire coating stuff too. I`m still looking for "the one" though. Holy grail for me is applies like Armor All and lasts a month+. Spray foam lasts a month for me, but I hate the driveway puddles. I really liked Tuffshine until I got a set of tires it hated and turned them brown. Also I was having to re-apply regularly to keep the level of bling I liked. TW tire coating is OK, it almost fits the applies like AA but it really takes 2-3 applications on tires that have been deep cleaned.

So quick update, after curing, it really is very slick. On par with SnS maybe even more! Also seems a little more glossy. Some bird poop came off with zero effort.
