Nano Bond Ceramic Coating 9H PRO, Car, Plastic, Glass, and Wheel Exterior Care Product kit, Hydrophobic, Long Lasting Professional Care, High Gloss Paint Shine, Automotive Polishing with Sio2, 30ML

I research everything before making a purchase, so when it came to ceramic coatings you can bet I did A LOT of reading watching YouTube reviews of all the popular products. In the past I've used a spray on/wipe off ceramic coating (Griots Garage 3-n-1) with good success; however, I wanted a "real" ceramic coating like the professionals use. So, I'll cut right to the chase...There is a YouTube channel called Scott HD where he tests 30+ products on a car hood (the hood is divided up into a grid of 30 squares). He applies all the different ceramic coatings, then leaves the hood (it's not on a car) out in the Texas sun. Every month or so he'll wash the hood and then show you how each product is holding up by spraying the hood with water so you can see the water repel.The most popular, and by popular I mean most advertised on Facebook, YouTube, etc., with tons of "positive reviews" (which I believe are made-up) turned out to be the WORST product. And you want to know which one was still holding up after 700+ days? Nano Bond!Prior to researching all the products, I had never heard of Nano Bond, so when I saw how well it performed, I figured it's going to be in the $150+ range like many of the others. I was SHOCKED to see that it's one of the LEAST expensive ceramic coatings you can buy.Applying was easy, but I would recommend you purchase a decent applicator sponge (I use Adam's, which you can get on Amazon). NB comes with an applicator sponge, but it's a bit too small for my liking. You get six in the bag, and since the sponge will turn rock hard the next day, you'll need to toss it in the garbage when finished...but that's ok because a bag of six is dirt cheap.Before you apply NB, you'll need to prep the car PRIOR, which involves a good wash, clay, and any paint correction needed (paint correction refers to a good buffing if the paint has swirls, scratches, etc.). I bought a clay mitt and was able to get the impurities that stick to paint off in about 10 minutes. Just cover the car in soap and wipe it down with the mitt (I use an MTM soap cannon to cover the car). Be warned: the bottle is made of thick plastic and it's heavy, so it gives the false illusion that there is a lot of product in the bottle - this is misleading and in my opinon, a bit of dishonesty. I finished my SUV and though I had a ton product remaining in the bottle, when truth be told it was literally empty when I finished. I bought two bottles, so luckily I was able to do my car as well (picture attached).When you apply it, you put about 10 drops on the applicator sponge and then apply (the bottle says 3-4 drops, but it's also a much smaller applicator sponge compared to Adam's sponge I used). Once the sponge is a used after doing a section or two, you only need to add 4-5 drops for each subsequent section. A little goes a LONG way! I did the same for my other cars and knocked each one out from start to finish in about 2 hours (that includes all the prep work).The end result is phenomenal! I got caught in the rain today in my Jeep and when driving, the water just blew right off the car! No dirt and no water spots when I got home. The shine is awesome!Don't waste $1000 for a "professional" to do it (unless your car needs a lot of paint correction and you don't have the time/tools/skills to fix it). Since my cars always look like new and I detail them a lot, neither needed any paint correction.

I recently purchased a new set of BBS wheels for an upcoming JDM car build I’ve decided to build. I love real sexy wheels but I don’t love cleaning them.I spent hours reading reviews and doing my own research on different ceramic coating products. My research kept bringing me back to this product and man an I glad it did! I applied this to a new set of BBS LM wheels. After the first wheel I was stunned at how amazing this made these already sexy wheels look! After applying this to all of the wheels and loving the results, I decided to then apply it to the lug nuts, aftermarket from grill and window visors. Once I do some paint correction on my car I will purchase another bottle of this and go to tow again! Great product, super clean way to apply and an unreal result! The fact that this will help prevent sun wear and help resist brake dust is a plus too. Hopefully the stated 3 year application interval will keep my wheels and other items I treated protected for years to come! Buy it now! You’ll thank me later!

I applied this coating July 2022 and it is now Aug 2023. This coating worked really well in the first couple months but it’s effectiveness rapidly diminished to a lower grade “spray like” ceramic. The hydrophobic properties are still apparent however this is because of the SI02 boosted sprays that I use. After a few washes without this spray the car was not very hydrophobic. With that in mind the coating did a great job of keeping the dirt and dust easy to remove when washing. I expected what I paid for and it maybe got a little more. I think this is great for first time ceramic applies because of its ease to apply and the fact that it’s not as permanent. Not to mention it’s also one of the cheapest out there! Overall pretty good coating.

Only been a month but it's doing what it's supposed to. Multiple rains and 3 car washes and it's still water rolling off. Not sure how people aren't getting good results, probably not prepping correctly or even at all. You don't just wipe this on a car after regular cleaning. If you don't know the prep don't bother using this or any coating. Pay somebody else to do it for you. This is not magic coating, it just makes it easier to clean the car as stuff doesn't stick as well to the paint as an uncoated car would. After the clay and polish the car is super slick and this coating is not visible or felt at all after applying, it just fills the imperfections at a level you can't see and that makes the paint a more slick surface. Not sure why people say the paint looks different.

Following a thorough preliminary wash, iron removal, secondary wash, and 20% isopropyl alcohol panel wipe, I applied a single layer of Nano Bond Ceramic 9H Coating to my two year old car that has never received silicon dioxide (SiO2)/ceramic treatment. I worked half of a panel at a time, waiting just a moment for the product to 'level', and then used clean microfiber clothes to quickly buff the coating to a pristine and streak-free shine. The sealant was applied in a covered outdoor carport on a still day at approximately 65 degrees Fahrenheit. Due to low humidity, Nano Bond began to dry within one minute of application although I never encountered tackiness or sticky resistance when buffing gently with the microfiber towel. My car has copious amounts of piano black trim that required a bit more buffing than the painted panels, but this was not a difficult step. Achieving a mirror finish was surprisingly quick and easy. Even though the dark bottle makes it difficult to know how much product has been used, there was more than enough to treat the entire surface of my vehicle. Water beading after 48 hours of curing is superb. In the sunlight the metallic flecks of the paint make the car sparkle as if it just came from the factory assembly line. Nano Bond 9H offers superb value for those willing to properly prep their car's surface and apply during appropriate environmental conditions out of direct sunlight on a cool day.
