oh yeah water beating off
hey guys welcome back to the channel so if you stole my last Siena video I was doing
that compounding and paint correction on it so today I'm what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna do some
DIY ceramic coat so what I've chose to use is a armor shield 9 from Avalon King it's a very
user friendly DIY kit and it's pretty affordable too I got these kids hockey overzealously bought
five five of them because I was following the directions on their website saying that the van
needed three if you saw my is video I barely use half a bottle on the is to cover all the
panels on that so I figured this car it's gonna be a little bigger so it's like I gonna take one full
bottle so I have a bunch left over after that but anyway the beauty of how armor shield 9 is
or it's a DIY kit so it comes with everything you need and I'll show you in a second what's
in the kit but if you're interested in stuff I've got a link down in the description with
a coupon code to get $25 off this kit if you're interested in it so check that out so this armor
shield 9 kit comes with everything you need to do the whole thing so it comes with a 30
milliliter bottle of the ceramic coating it comes with this little sponge that you used
to apply the coating with comes with gloves to protect your fingers and hands from this stuff
because you don't want that stuff drawing on your hands it comes with three microfiber towel so you
change these towels every couple of panels to make sure that it doesn't crystallize and dry
up and then that might ruin your you're coating it also come through this microfiber towel to
wipe the excess as part of the procedure to put this on it's pretty straightforward and
easy to put this stuff on so basically you take the microfiber towel you wrap it in this sponge
with a soft side up and then this side is the backside that the side with a logo and then you
put like ten or twelve drops of armor shield on there and then you basically just wipe it back and
forth and up and down on little sections of the panel what I learned from doing the is panels was
you basically have to do one section let it dry for a minute or two move on to the next section
while that one's dry and then come back wipe that down and then wipe the next section down
that speeds up the process a lot better I'll actually link up a video to the actual Avalon
King video to shows you how to do is it's a pretty hilarious like parody satire film but anyway I'll
get started on this so you want to wipe down the panel before you start it you're supposed
to use isopropyl alcohol but I don't have any as covin 2020 and alcohol is nowhere to be found at
any store I'm using my duplicate or greasing wax remover just wipe the panel down make sure clean
there's any compound or anything from earlier so you get this stuff ready that see the microfiber
on the pad right there and then you shake this up for a a minute or so just to make
sure it's mixed well and then you just put dab on like you know 10 to 12 drops on here across
the whole board and then get started on it so I do it right here so you're gonna do just do
little sections at a time manageable section make sure you overlap then go up and down
he is to just get good coverage give it about a minute to dry and then wipe it down so let
it drop if I'm in now it's time to wipe down buff it turn the panel regularly just sick
make sure you and this is a good time to kind of check for any imperfections any leftover
compound or anything in the paint if there is anything you just want to recode it that spot
I did see some little spots where I had some compound left here so I might have
to redo this little check and just to make sure so that's pretty much it you
just repeat the rest of the panels that same way tell my time outfit the rest of the way
you
so did all the doors and the quarter panel on both sides so I got to turn
the car around now do the hood and the fenders and then actually I need to do
the lift gate so I'll do the lift gate and the rear bumper and then I'll move it to the
front side but basically got everything pretty good I got some of this trim along the way and
the trims looking nice now with the ceramic coat on it you ceramic coat is really good
to rejuvenate your trim so yeah if you have extra left over which you probably will with
this kit you go ahead and use it on that trim get it all shiny again and protected
all that and I only use 3/4 of the bottle so there's still some left at the bottom there
about 1/4 left of the bottle so he saw I pretty much got everything I even did the wipers I did
those wipers and I did all my trims and all that I would have done the Crowell but my Crowell has
Plasti Dip on it I did plastidip a couple years ago when I started discoloring because you can see
I started peeling right here when I was washing the car so I got to redo that and Plasti Dip so
that's why I didn't coat that one with ceramic coat but the wiper arms and the actual wiper heads
I've done that so pretty much got everything done on this car I showed me doing the front bumper in
the video so I've got that front bumper coated I recorded out earlier and then I just stuck
it in the footage so you saw that but in one of my future videos I'll put all my front end
back together I had to add a little mishap with the fender linings when I was driving with his
bumper and I didn't connect them all so I'll show you that in that video but pretty easy I think it
took me like maybe two two and a half hours to do all this hey guys thanks for sticking all the
way to the end of this video if I only took like ten minutes on the time-lapse but it really took
