Red Velvet Back From Ceramic Coating

[50 Deep]

Red Velvet is back from being freshly ceramic coated thanks to Imperial Works in Sacramento. The shine and depth on the Ruby Red is unbelievable.


Signature Wheel Flagship FOUR are coated to keep off brake dust. All the black trim, inserts and tonneau cover look incredible. Paint is so smooth and the hydrophobic properties will make it way easier to clean.

Once it cures in about a week I look forward to taking it off road to play a little and see how easy it cleans up. Thanks to those dudes for busting this out in 2 days and 107 degree heat .

How much did it run you?

I ceramic coated my Raptor and a new set of wheels MYSELF back in June and It’s changed my car wash habits!! Having a ceramic coating on your vehicle especially something as large as a Raptor is definitely a plus. Rain, mud and dirt all basically rinse or wipe off the truck. My friend did his Trackhawk and talked me into doing the Raptor so I managed ceramic coat my Raptor and 4 wheels for less than $100. Bought the large container of Cquartz Ceramic Coating on sale along a large bottle of Reload with some extra pads and cloths. I washed and cleaned up the truck on Friday and ceramic coated it on Saturday. I did 2+ applications of CQuatzs and hit it with the Reload and let it sit for a few days. If you have the space, time , patience and have ever waxed a car you can ceramic coat any car. Here’s a picture of my truck that I haven’t washed in about 3 weeks

Thanks man

How much did it run you?

I think the lifetime gold package was around 3k. I paid a little less though . It really changes depending on how many layers you do and if you do the interior as well

Five minutes of online research and I found ceramic coating...for $8. It goes on with half the effort of wax or sealant. I spent 27 years as a professional auto detailer. The stuff is amazing....but what is even more amazing is what the public is willing to pay! $2000...$3000...or more. I may come out of retirement!
