Mine too. He removed badges tail lights wheels and worked around everything. Very in depth. Like I said they had mine a week.

 

I did my 99 with zanio back in 2003 when I got the car, but it's nothing compaired to the ceramic. You do this once, and never have to wax again.
Some guys in my club have it for the last 3 years and it still looks like new.
Check out you tube for some examples.

What kind of jack stand is under your car.?

 

It's on a scissor lift.

 

I had it done to my C6Z recently from Dynamic Perfection. Full paint correction & then sprayed down the whole car except glass including trim, door jambs, wheels, brakes & calipers, exhaust, everything, cost was $1200 and well worth it. Cleaning is a breeze, no more waxing and it has a 5 year warranty. I just bring it back once a year for a touch-up, no cost. I've never seen the black so deep & rich.

 

Very much worth doing to a black car. The day I took the pics of my car on the lift they also had a 17 black Z06, a 17 black Hellcat and a 17 black Jag F Type R in the shop. All getting paint correction and the Kenzo coating.

 

Did the new Z couple weeks ago! Looks awesome! Did it all, paint, convertible top, wheels, exhaust tips--- expensive but I feel worth it if it holds up! Going to do the 2013-427, Night Racer Blue next I think! Highly recommend!

You've never seen my car - and it doesn't have a ceramic coating.

As I've stated in other threads. 90% of the pop is the result of the quality of the prep. Just about any protectant applied after quality corrective work will yield that kind of shine and pop. Durability is the main advantage of some of the coatings, depending on how the car is driven, stored, and maintained.

DIY people should not assume the results are a function of the coating itself. It absolutely is not. I apply coating on my wife's DD since it spends most days in sun, rain, slush, snow, whatever, so benefits from the extra protection a coating can provide. And, though her car has 110K miles, it looks better than most new cars - simply because I have the tools and skills to do proper prep before applying whatever protective product I choose. Honestly, most people interested in this kind of thing should let a local professional do the work, since the time and expense of doing it yourself will be greater than what they charge.

DIY - coatings are not applied like most waxes or sealants. They are more challenging to apply and less forgiving than most of the waxes and sealants you can get at your favorite local store. Even what you choose for application is fairly important with coatings, while others can be applied with a variety of things without much issue. For those determined to do it themselves - absolutely follow manufacturers instructions to the letter.

 

Mine had the gloss after the correction and before the coating was applied. I don't have the tools, skill or time to DIY. I mainly took mine to the shop to have the correction done because of the swirl marks, water spots and a few surface scratches it had when I bought it. Decided to do the coating so I don't have to wax it and it last longer. I do believe that coating has better hydrophobic ability than a wax does. At least the waxes I have used. Makes it easy to keep clean. I can just spray it off with my pressure washer and hit it with my car dryer for a quick wash but do need to do a 3 bucket hand wash every once and a while. Everyone that sees my car comments on the color and thought it looked good before the correction. But now people see it and say WOW.
