Default CERAMIC PRO

Does anyone have any experience with the above mention to protect your paint?

yeah I got a "cheaper" $700 version of those nanoceramic details from a friend who is a reputable dealer and I couldn't justify the $1300 price for the top end version since my car is a 3yr lease. So as a bonus they put the expensive stuff on my wheels including inside of wheels and the cheaper stuff all over the car. My wife's car (sq5) has a really nice detail using a product called "glare" and this weekend it rained heavily and lots of mud..my wifes car looks like its trashed with mud stains everywhere.. mine looks like it was just washed..it works SO well I regret not doing the more expensive stuff.. my wheels look like they were just detailed..rest of the car looks really clean considering all the dirt and mud that fell on the car while I was driving (we had lots of flash flooding with deep mud and water above the wheel wells and it all looks really clean.
If you get a reputable dealer I would get the top of the line and have them do the wheels including inside and lights and glass as well

Thanks for the feedback. It's a friend of a friend who owns the shop and is giving me the top end with a 10yr warranty for $1250 which does include the wheels, calipers & Windows. On top of 4 coatings.

I have not had experience with Ceramic Pro but got mine done with Opticoat Pro+ and Suntek film. I have been very impressed so far....

yes opticoat pro+ is what my wheels are but rest were something cheaper.. the opticoat is very impressive.. Im sure in australia or with offroad driving one may need the film but Im generally not the type to do film protection..I swap cars too quickly for that..and in our area its not really needed in my opinion..
but I do love that opticoat ..my next car I will get the whole car..its worth it..you know the material only costs like $70 but they charge $1300 for labor
