@Gunny No, it's a 2015. Your right! They are a pain in the a$$ to keep clean for sure. I currently in the hunt for some new wheels though.

Cool Back in The Saddle

Delivery of my meticulously detailed, PPF / Ceramic Coated RCF last nite was phenomenal.
A very long discussion about what was done, how to care for it, grey areas, etc will follow. I shall create a a Thread so as not to hijack our new RCFOwner (OP)
Always heard there were products a bit higher than "Consumer Grade" and learned this to be true last evening. Will detail this later. Pun intended!
Many more photos (Pro guy was there too) of the entire process - start to finish will be posted once received. To be continued...........

Gunny, car looks great but over a month for a job like this seems kinda like excessive. Not sure if this is typical time frame for this kinda of work. Are we missing something "spacial"?

Default True, True

Yes. You are missing something very special indeed. Though it took some explaining. Definitely Not anything "Spacial" though my friend. 😳

Man, mine took two weeks and that was only because the shop here in Dallas (DetailWerks) was super backed up. I was definitely having withdraws! HAHA

also i clearly typed JAXWAX not jaywax

Thanks for making this post. I used JaxWax Ceramic wax, it beads far better off than meguiars wax that I was using.
