So we got my fiance's Mercedes-Benz A250 Ceramic Coated!steemCreated with Sketch.

So I've been seeing a lot of ads all over the internet of people raving on and on about Ceramic Coating of their cars and how its supposedly the best thing ever.

So we decided to give it a shot.
Cost a pretty penny, around R13000.00 = $1000

i'm not gonna lie i was not expecting anything close to the result that was achieved on the car.

Here's a bit of background and details about what it's supposed to do,

Permanent protection
Ceramic Pro is not a paint protection, wax or sealant that will wash away or break down over time. It is a nano-ceramic coating that forms a permanent adhesion to the paint and can only be removed through abrasion. No chemical can dissolve the coating.

Hardness above 9H
The glass coat is above 9H on the Pencil test scale. This scale is used in the coating Industry to determine the clear coat or paints hardness, 9H is the highest on the scale. The coat will stay hard under the warranty period if maintained correctly.

Chemical Resistance
The coating has a 100% resistance against the damaging contaminants and harsh chemicals that a car can be exposed to. Since chemicals do not do anything to the coating, the car will stay protected.

Oxidation and Corrosion Resistant
Bare metal will oxidize and painted surfaces will not. Ceramic Pro´s protective coat protects the paint and the metal from getting in contact with water and oxygen.

Temperature resistance
The coat will not be affected under 760`C.

Super Gloss
The shine from this product is not comparable to any other product on the market. It has to be seen in real life.

Super Hydrophobic
When you talk about surfaces being hydrophobic you often talk about the water contact angle of the surface. The higher angle the less dirt or liquid will attach to the surface. A drive in the rain will make the car look newly washed. This hydrophobic effect will last during the warranty period.

Here's the end result!!!
p.s. These are pics taken with my Samsung Galaxy S8 - no filters and no photoshop (just really decent lighting)
