      @ABAUTOAMG 3 дні тому

      @ErwanYTube Hey Erwan, A ceramic coating is great but I’d avoid getting it done at a main dealer. I don’t want to knock main dealers but most simply don’t have the time to do it properly. You’re much better off getting it done by a professional detailer. They will take so much care and properly prep the car and the coating will be better and last much longer 👍

    • @ABAUTOAMG
      @ABAUTOAMG 3 дні тому

      Also it’s never too late. If anything now is a good time as a good detailer they will polish out any light scratches (ones that are hard to see) and swirl marks before they apply it and the car will look amazing. Il probably be having the Aston Martin done soon 👍
