After that I did the whole driver side panels.

So far I have a little over 6 hours into this, but I take my time and admire my work. This is not a bad thing because it also allows me to find missed stuff when I stand back and look at it from a different angle.

Tonight should go quicker, all I have to do is the front grille, all of the passenger side and the what I can of the back since most of it is covered with the spare tire carrier

as you know pics don't ever do it justice. Honestly being brand new it is already very shiny, so when I'm done its not going to really look much different than when I started.

I definitely know that. It will look wet/shiner and the black trim will pop more once it’s coated. I’m jealous you can be in your garage

yes, the black trim will look really good once it is coated.

It was so nice in the garage yesterday too. It was raining out and there was a nice breeze

Waiting for the final product---I'm sure it will look just as good as the truck. It sure looks good already. I'm thinking that coating etc. would be a real challenge without a garage.

Spring time weather and pollen etc etc--to many "if's" for me to be comfortable doing it outside. Good luck completing the coating, we're all waiting to see how it turns out----although most of us already know---LOL

Im a dare devil. LOL

Once it flashes nothing sticks to it, Pollen - Dust - Pine Needles. I used an area on my 2003 Avalanche as a test panel. I debated on bringing it to my shop but didn't feel like spending the whole day down there and carting my pressure washer and all the chemicals. I did get scared when some light rain rolled through and did go out at 1:30am to blow the water off with air. But it had a good 12 hours of hot sun to cure it. No issues (I'm happy to report)
I also talked to a buddy that owns a detailing business and he said if I botched it he could fix it for a couple hundred bucks.

Your truck Looks great. Brand new!

I've been an Adam's user for several years. I use Ceramic Boost as a stand alone on the Ram and it lasts. The Viper is CQuartz coated, and I use Ceramic Boost as a topper for that.

My other Adam's go-tos are VRT, Leather Conditioner (does nicely on the whole interior, not just leather) and of course, the Detail Spray. Not a fan of the Waterless Wash, but I think when I am out at Carlisle next month, I'll pick up some of the Ceramic Waterless Wash and see how I like it.

Here are two teasers. The Jeep is now ceramic coated. Tomorrow after it has sat for at least 24 hours I will go over everything with ceramic boost. I may even wait till Monday after work to let it cure a little longer

Thanks. There was only 11,000 miles on it when I traded it in so it was still pretty new lol

I actually love Adams waterless wash but I make my own by mixing their rinseless wash 16 to 1 with water.

Vrt is my favorite tire dressing. However as you know with the viper, once a vehicle is ceramic coated the amount of products needed to keep it looking good dwindle. Don’t need wax, don’t need detail spray, don’t need sealers.
