It’s been about 15 months since this car was ceramic coated...
But here’s the twist — it hasn’t been washed in about 5 MONTHS.
I didn’t expect what I saw when the water hit the paint…
@GtechniqNorthAmerica CSL + EXO V5 were applied in November 2023. Now it’s February 2025, and it’s time to see if this coating combo handled the neglect.

✅ Hydrophobic performance
✅ Water sheeting
✅ Gloss & slickness under studio and sun lighting
Watch to see what I found 👀
