Interesting video. Thanks for posting. The test is not scientific but does test two specific coatings and the results show there is little difference between them. I wish they had taken another reflectivity test before buffing. I'd also like to know how the "professional" finishes hold up and shine compared to the others. Testing some additional graphene coatings would also be interesting. Overall, good, informative video.

Good points all...just another source for those on the fence to form an opinion over before taking next step. Personally, BF One Step and other Si-Oxide products is about as far as I will go. While I appreciate the process and superiority of Ceramic type applications. The fun I have with the process of taking care of my cars finish periodically and the satisfaction of a job well done, to me, more than out weighs the simplicity and expense to have someone else do it . Labor of love for me ....
