The Official Washed and Waxed Thread!
Didn't know where else to post this question. What are people's opinions on ceramic-coating?

I haven't had the time the past couple years to keep up with paint/waxing/cleaning our cars. Jess' car is still in the very nice stage and I am looking at buying a new truck soon.

I have done very little research, but I gave these guys a call. (remember I am clueless on detailing).
Basically $350 to correct the paint + $599 or $1099 to get it ceramic coated.
$150 once a year for a full detail after that and either 2-5 year gaurantee.
What are people's thoughts? Expensive? Any other place I should think of? Spending $1300 for 2-3 years or $2k for 5 years isn't cheap, but so is keeping a car nice.

Having to buy a $100-200 buffer + $ pads + $ sealants/waxes + spending 2-3 days a year of my time? Eh starting to lose a lot of interest. My idea is ceramic coating, the $150 a year detail, and then washing it every 2 months (takes about 1-2 hours vs an entire day). Am I silly?

Reading this it looks like you don't get a true ceramic coating unless you do the $1099 package? I have no idea.
