I might buy a new vehicle soon.
A end-of model year deal, a 2023 Nissan Armada, 4x4.
The deal seems too good to pass up and since a US spec Armada is a decontented Y62 Patrol from the Nissan global market, it will likely last forever mechaically.
So since its brand new, I figure now would be the time to make it last.
a) Professional ceramic coating. I hear they cost a lot due to the hours involved. How much are we talking about?
None of their websites will mention a price..
Can I accomplish comparable results on my own? Probably not I think, since the ceramic includes 3 washes to prep, twice degreasing with alcohol, then dryng indoors for a couple of days (I do have a garage but I never use it, it serves as storage but is mostly empty and could house the vehicle I suppose), and then apply the ceramic.
I am a but unsure which detailers can be trusted to do the job properly in this small town....
b) For anti rust, I could easily sped a couple hours under the vehicle spraying it down with fluid film. This is something I trust myself to do. Are there professional yet still affordable alternatives?
I do live in Florida but not at the coastline so rust is not a big issue here, but still, it seems like a good idea to do when a car is new......
Any comments welcome.
PS: I am on a VPN so I get nearly every english word highlighted red as a typo, its a bit offputting and actually makes it harder for me to spot typos. So I guess I am saying, sorry for the typos
