Hey all, complete noob when it comes to ceramic coating. I’ve done PPF on my last few BMWs but moving up to a Porsche (Taycan 4S on order...arriving in forever++) I see everybody saying ceramic is a “must”...plus PPF. I’ve watched a few videos on this from detailers, There’s zero chance I’m going to try this myself (my local dealer will do this prior to handing over). And I’ll also freely admit that being in the frozen north With 6 months of winter (aka Minnesota) I will not be hand washing my car but going through touchless car washes.
So...assuming all the articles and videos online are correct and this is highly valuable for the paint health of a car (that would be implied question number 1)...(The explicit #1) Am I even a decent customer for ceramic (admitting I will not be doing the hand washing), (2) How long does the ceramic REALLY last? (3) How much life does the touchless really take off of the ceramic? (4) It’s a bit varied & unclear on what to do to care for / maintain the coating until it’s time to reapply.
Any thoughts & guidance are greatly appreciated.
