My Bronco is scheduled for Production this December. I was looking for any suggestions regarding ceramic coatings that anyone may have. I wanted to have it treated immediately upon receipt.

If you are talking professional ceramic coatings, Gtechniq Crystal Serum Ultra is my personal top pick. But you often don't get to pick what coating you use if you go to a professional shop.

If you are doing it yourself in the driveway... there is lots of options available. I gravitate to Adams Polishes' Graphene Ceramic line (not the "Advanced" line, just the regular Graphene Ceramic line). They have everything you need, they make it simple with online tutorials, and it is a lot more forgiving and easier to apply than professional coatings. Their spray-on graphene ceramic coating in particular is super easy to apply.

Around here professional ceramic coating costs close to $2000. That is with full paint correction and two coats. Five year warranty. In contrast full PPF would cost around $3000. 10 year nationwide warranty, self healing and true paint protection. Not just easier washings.

Food for thought.

Does that PPF need to come off in 10 years? how is it to wash? I am on the fence.

I agree with Garemlin- Have ceramic coating on my 2022 Anti Matter Blue F150 Tremor. It looks good but has not stopped the little paint chips😕. I will be putting on a full PPF wrap on my 2dr Bronco when it gets here- Blend date of 12-03-2022.

I have XPEL clear PPF on my 2019 Bullitt Mustang and it is worth every penny. And unless there is some kind of issue you don’t need to pull it off. And I Just had the XPEL Stealth put on the Bronco. I pick it up tomorrow.

Curious to what the XPEL Stealth is running you. I got a quote from a guy local to me (KY) and he said about $6k. Disclaimers: I don't have my Bronco yet & he hasn't done a Bronco before so this was a "don't hold me to it but it shouldn't be more than $6k" quote. He just said that's about what he charges for a "SUV". The shop does a lot of high-end cars so he's not a noob and he comes recomended from trusted friends. I priced the pre-cut kit for a 2dr from XPEL and it was a tick over $3k (retail) so I'm sure he was just trying to CYA.

Post pics! I'm looking at the stealth for my Carb Gray Bronco.

Cheers!
