Great product as always from CG! Have been only using chemical guys since I discovered their products. Glad they continue to expand their product line.
Hey Kevin, glad to have you as part of the Chemical Guys family!!
You guys make the most amazing car care products. And you do a great job at showing how to apply them. I can’t wait until you guys get this back in stock!
Thanks so much for being part of the Chemical Guys family!!
This product has been a long time coming. Finally CG has come out with their own true ceramic coating.
Happy detailing!
This actually seems like a simple application process. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
I’m 17 and want to get into detailing. Watching your videos gives me motivation !!
Glad to hear it!
Looking to apply this to my new Ioniq 5 but have a question. I don’t have a garage but rather a car port and I’m concerned about pollen in the air. Will small airborne debris be a problem during the curing process or will they be repelled before it’s fully cured?
I bought it, can’t wait to try it!
You're gonna love it!!
Man that Land Cruiser in the back 😍
Hey! Check out the FJ detail video.
ua-cam.com/video/7uq1Nxo7ZEA/v-deo.html
Just ordered mine... waiting for it to ship. Can't wait to try it.
You're going to love it!
What kind of wipe do I need after doing all the steps to apply the ceramic? Thanks…
Can you guys also make a video for maintenance wash after applying this product?
Great suggestion, stay tuned!
If my vehicles are outside in a not controlled environment is it recommended to apply this product in that situation? Also can it be applied to plastic trim? Thank you
I honestly cant wait till i start detailing cars in the near future
Happy detailing!
Hi guys, looks amazing! Can't wait to try it. Quick question: if I want to layer it up with a glaze, sealant and wax, do I also have to wait 12 hours to let the ceramic coating cure?Thanks
Hi Jonathan! It is perfectly fine to layer on your favorite glaze, sealant and wax nearly immediately after applying ceramic.
@@ChemicalGuys Awesome, thanks!
Can I re-use the little applicator sponge, or do i have to have a bunch of them to put multiple coats on a large suv? I assume the sponge will be crispy when it dries and may scratch if I reuse it. Apologies if this was already answered.
2 Questions ChemGuys: What percentage would you say you correct the paint to, via polishing, before ceramic.... Like 90%? Surely do not strive for 100%? Secondly, what is the actual difference, chemically, between this product and the products that cost 5x more?
If u don't have a controlled environment can or should u still do it? Also u don't need infrared lights for this 2 cure right?
How many coats is too many? I have a whole bottle of this stuff just to do my new wheels, should I just keep doing coats until the bottle is gone?
I gotta try this!
You're going to love it!
By far the easiest to work with. Remember what he said, a little goes a long way. Appreciate the info!
Happy detailing!
I’m a year late to the party but I have a question. When layering do you need to wait for each layer to cure the 12-24 hours before adding additional coats? Also what is the max amount of layers recommended?
Hi there! Allow about 3 hours before applying additional coats of Carbon Force.
Can i also use this on chrome details on my car?
Just ordered! Will be applying to a brand new wrx, you guys still recommend polishing and clay bar?
You're going to love it! If necessary, clay bar and polish the vehicle prior to application.
How long do you need to wait to see the raimbow effect?
Can't wait to purchase this as I'm a massive CG fan.
However, I do have a question. Can this be applied over black reflective vehicle livery?
Super awesome! You can apply Carbon Force to smooth glossy surfaces like paint, metal, glass, chrome, wheels, headlights, and more!
How about matte black vinyls?
Amazing!👊
Glad you like it!
Hey can I put on a second layer a couple weeks later?
I'm starting to use this on my new Tesla Model 3 that has a pearl white paint (like tons of others!) and I'm finding it *impossible* to see any indication of hazing or drying to clue me as to when to level the coating. I've used from 30 seconds to 2 minutes (garage is about 55 degrees, so on the cool side) but I can't see *any* difference in the result. Suggestions?
Hi Ted! Thanks for watching. Carbon Force won't haze, so it may be best to work panel by panel to prevent missing areas when buffing off spent product.
What wax would you recommend using after putting ceramic on?
Hi Rob! Compliment your ceramic coating by applying a paste wax such as Pete's '53 for depth and protection.
www.chemicalguys.com/petes-53-carnauba-paste-wax-with-applicators/WAC_300.html
After polishing step, do you then wipe down with wipe out? Then carbon force? Thanks for any advice been trying to find answer in many of the videos!
Hey Matthew! That's correct, after polishing, use Wipe Out to remove any oils or residue before applying Carbon Force.
When is this product coming to Canada ?
Hey! We recommend checking with Chemical Guys Canada. Thanks for watching and happy detailing!
How much is the cost of that ceramic coating.
When will this be for sale on the website?
Hey David! Check out this link.
www.chemicalguys.com/carbon-force-ceramic-protective-paint-coating-system/WAC232.html
I need instructions on what to apply after my ceramic coating! Can I use jet seal, wet mirror finish and or lava wax after applying carbon force?
Hi Ryan! It is perfectly fine to apply your favorite glaze, sealant and/or wax in that order.
When applying the wax/sealant after the ceramic coating. can I use my rotary tool or it will wipe off the ceramic coating? Do I need to do it by hand?
How long does this last?
Gotta buy it. Make a video on it as well just like I did with a few other products. CG is winning.
Glad to have you as part of the Chemical Guys family!
Can the coating be re applied? 1 coat one day and another the next day or week ?
Hey Ryan! Absolutely, as long as the vehicle is clean before the second application.
What do you use before applying to strip off anything g like wax or polish if you polished it before it.
We recommend washing your vehicle with a surface cleansing soap like Clean Slate to strip off protective coatings on your vehicle.
I wanna see this vs the hydro charge&hydro slick
Great suggestion!
Does washing the car with clean slate remove it or just polishing the car remove it? Also what kinda pressure washer do you use at the shop?
Hi Alberto! Clean Slate will not remove ceramic, to properly remove the coating from paint it will have to be polished.
I have a new Camaro and am constantly washing away water spots from after rain. Does ceramic coating repell water spots??
Hey! Yes, ceramic adds a durable layer against harsh elements while also making the surface hydrophobic to repel water spots.
Tried it for the first time today. Very pleased with the product.
Enjoy your detailing products!!
1st from Puerto Rico 👍🇵🇷
Thanks for tuning in!
👍🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷
Annnnnnddddd now I have to give Chemical Guys more money 😂
When will this product be hitting Amazon?
You will love Carbon Force!
Finally a true ceramic coating but I’m afraid to ruin my paint even tho looks so easy to use, is this a really diy product?
Hey there! Carbon Force is super easy to apply.
Quick question I already polished,hydro charge,hydroslick ,glazed,jet seal , and waxed car ,can I add this on top of all that or do I need to strip everything then do it all over? And if I do need to strip every thing off what goes first in the flow chart?
Hi Mark! Thanks so much for your message. Ceramic should be applied first and then it can be layered with your favorite glaze, sealant, and/or wax.
What polish did you apply before you applied Carbon Force?
Hey Josh! Check out our V-Line of Polishes.
www.chemicalguys.com/v-line-polish-compound/v-line-polish-compound.html?gtmListValue=Internal%20Search
If you want to layer the product and add a second coat of Carbon Force, how long do you need to wait? Can it be applied immediately after buffing, or do you need to wait 3-12 hours?
Hey there! Allow about 20 minutes in between coats. Be sure that the vehicle stays dry for the next 12 hours.
@@ChemicalGuys would you also wait 20 min before adding a coat of hydrocharge/hydroslick or wait the full 12-24hrs?
@@blake60ah41 he said in another comment that you could apply it nearly right after the carbon force
I have tundra crewmax and a highlander will one bottle do both ?
Hey Anthony! One bottle of Carbon Force will coat three average sized vehicles.
Can you apply it on non glossy exterior plastic trim? If not, what is a good protector for non glossy plastic trim?
Hey there! You can apply a dressing like Blue Guard. Blue Guard is an oil based dressing that penetrates deep and conditions faded and plastic trim to a rich high gloss factory finish.
Gtechniq has a great trim coating
can you use this on carbon fiber or if not what would you recommend to keep the carbon fiber in perfect condition
Absolutely! Apply Carbon Force to any surface that is gloss painted, shiny or clear.
Hey man I just watched ur other videos and I saw the other guy used hydrocharge/slick after washing/polishing. Im just confused if I should just use carbon force instead of the hydro series?
Hello! Carbon Force can be used as a standalone barrier of protection or layered with HydroCharge and HydroSlick for added durability and hydrophobic properties.
Do you have to add more coating to the applicator pad after each body panel?
Hi Cooper! Yes, add more product as necessary to maintain consistency.
I bought the Carbon force kit on one of your store.... I was told the steps are Wash with Clean slate, clay bar, polish with V36, wipe out cleanser spray and then carbon force coating. My Question is. If I used the wipe out would that strip the paint V36 polish? Car is brand new.
Hey! Wipe Out will remove any residue left behind to ensure the surface is totally clean before applying Carbon Force.
Can this also be applied to plastic trim?
Hi Kim! Carbon Force can be applied to any surface that is gloss painted, shiny or trim. For textured plastic trim use Carbon Flex C9 Trim Coating. As long the vehicle is kept dry for the next 12 hours it will properly cure.
If I don’t finish coating the carbon force in one day and I am on my last applicator sponge can I still use that sponge if I were to wash them and use them a day later?
Hi there! The applicator will begin to harden as it Carbon Force cures and it will no longer be useful for application.
So, my wife just bought a 2023 Mini Cooper we decided to decline their ceramic coating because it is the in my opinion excessive ($2300), after seeing this, I just would like to know how to properly layer this product.
1- Wash with clean slate
2- Clay bar it
3- Carbon Force (wait 12 hours)
4- HydroSlick (wait 3 hours)
5- Whitelight
6- Jet Seal
7- White paste wax
Would that be appropriate order? Or should I put carbon force last?
Hey Felix! You got it, that is the perfect order for the longest lasting bond.
@@ChemicalGuys thanks !!!
So once waiting the 12-24 hrs after applying the ceramic coat, then you can follow up with your hydro wax?
Absolutely!
I didn't see the answer to roughly how many cars or will this do a full size F-150 and if you don't use the full bottle how long of a shelf life is expected before it hardens in jar.
With most ceramic coatings I've found that a 50ml bottle is needed for a full size truck.
Hey! Carbon Force will coat one full size truck. Thanks for watching and happy detailing!
How many cars can one bottle do if applied once.
And can one coating last up to 5 years or do I have to layer it to get 5 years of protection?
Hey! One bottle of Carbon Force will protect several average size vehicles for up to 5 years when used properly.
Sweet! What if I clayed, compounded, polished, glazed, sealed and waxed it a week or a month ago? Can you wash it and carbon force it or do you need to clay it and repolish it again?
Hi Jay! It is fine to wash with Clean Slate to remove coats of glaze, sealant and wax before applying ceramic.
@@ChemicalGuys thanks 🙏🏻 can’t wait to try it.
Looks great, that little bottle for the whole vehicle? Seems like not enough and the price I think is ridiculously high.
Hey! One bottle of Carbon Force can coat several average size vehicles when applied properly.
If your vehicle is brand new do you have to clay bar and polish?
Hi Dean! In most cases, a brand new vehicle will still need to be clayed and given a light polish. During transport and sitting on a dealership lot, the paintwork is exposed to fallout and the potential of being scratched.
Can you add the second layer right away or do you have to wait 12 hours. Thank you
Hey! We recommend allowing 12 hours to pass before applying a second coat. Thanks for watching and happy detailing!
Question: How long does the ceramic coating take to cure on a newly restored set of headlights ?
Hi there! Carbon Force begins to bond immediately after application and continues to improve hydrophobic properties and cure for the next 12 hours.
Question! Can carbon force go onto a gel coated boat?
Hey John! Carbon Force can be applied to any gloss surface.
Can we use this on vinyl wrap? Also with all these steps?
Hey Ash! Enhance and protect gloss vinyl wraps with a coat of Butter Wet Wax.
So I just got the carbon force but have some questions on what you guys recommend for me to do. I have a 2022 Toyota Camry in black I got back in June wash it once a week with blacklight wash with the foam cannon and Diablo wheel cleaner and even finish it off with V07 detail spray for water spots never waxed the car so what do your guys recommend to clay and wax? Use wipe out? I have no idea please help thanks..
Hey! Before applying Carbon Force, wash the vehicle with Clean Slate and then use a Light Duty Clay Bar with Clay Luber to thoroughly cleanse the paintwork. Inspect the paintwork to determine if polishing is necessary or move onto applying Carbon Force.
@@ChemicalGuys what polish the all in one polish or vss?
once you finish applying, can you go out and drive or does it actually need to sit inside for 12hrs?
Hey! Ceramic should be kept out of the elements for at least three hours and kept dry for at least twelve hours.
After vehicle is washed, what polish do I need to use, you said in video to polish before adding carbon force ? then do I put the glaze, sealant and wax, then the Carbon Force. CG products are just AMAZING!
Hi Brenda! Depending on the condition of the paintwork, it may need a multi-stage paint correct or only a light polish. Try using an Orange Hex-Logic Pad with V36 Cutting Polish as a baseline. Carbon Force should be applied to bare paint and then it can be layered with your favorite glaze, sealant, and/or wax.
I’m planing to use jet seal, ceramic coating, and h07 glossy liquid wax at same time. What sequence do I need to do them in? Ceramic coating first, then jet seal immediately? Or do I wait three hour then do jet seal and liquid wax
Is hydroslick and hydro charge a better option? I’m planning to do it on my brand new white Tesla model y. I want to achieve shinny and even glossy look. Should I stick with what I mentioned above or go with hydro series?
Hey! Apply ceramic to a bare surface and allow at least three hours before applying additional coats or sealant and/or wax.
I have a factory stripped car. Does this product go ever the stripes or do they need to be taped off?
Hey! Carbon Force should only be used on gloss painted surfaces.
I don't really have a controlled environment. I dont have a garage and i have to park in my driveway. is this a problem for this product?
Hello! As long as the surface is cool to the touch and out of direct sunlight it is safe to apply.
After using the clay. What type of polish did you use?
Hi there! Check out the V-Line for a variety of compound and polishes that best suit your needs.
Is there a way to strip the coating? I messed up and left it on to long and now there are streaks.
Hey! Check out this video.

How do you prep class for ceramic coating?
Hi Jenna! Check out this video.
ua-cam.com/video/zIvSF9RyvfY/v-deo.html
okay so if i want to use the blue hyper wax do i use it before or after the ceramic coating ?
Hi Omar! Apply Carbon Force before adding HydroSlick.
I want to ceramic coat my entire car using carbon force, should I still use jet seal after in order to get UV protection ? Or will the carbon force protect against UV?
Hi there! Carbon Force will add UV protection however it can be layered with glaze, sealant and wax for added protection and shine.
Will the product do a truck and car?
Hey! Yes, that is correct. Thanks for watching!
Could be applied over glaze?
Hi Geraldo! Apply Carbon Force before applying glaze, sealant and wax if so desired.

@@ChemicalGuys perfect! Thanks! Because i got the glosswork and the jetseal and i would love to have this ceramic coating!
Waiting for this product on Amazon.... CG product are always best 👍👍
Thanks for the amazing feedback!
Clearly u haven’t used good products
@@zaceryhammond1144 my thoughts exactly
@@zaceryhammond1144 lol
My truck is about two months old. Do I still need to clay bar or just use clean slate?
Hi there! Yes, even brand new vehicles can use a clay bar treatment.
Hi, how many average uses does each bottle have?
Hi Tony! One bottle of Carbon Force, when properly applied, can coat several average size vehicles.
@@ChemicalGuys thank you guys so much!
Do I have to polish the car after claying to apply the ceramic coating?
Hey! It is recommend to machine polish the vehicle before applying coatings to prevent swirl marks and scratches from being locked in under the coating.
So if it’s a brand new vehicle do you still need to polish?
Hi Robert! Every vehicle is different but even brand new vehicles may need to be polished.
How do I prep a brand new car, is clay bar still necessary
Hey! Yes, even a brand new car may require a thorough decontamination with a clay bar.
Can I use the white light and white wax after applying this ceramic?
Absolutely!!
Cool so if I wanted to do a full detail would it go in this order
Wash
Clay bar
Polish
Ceramic
Glaze
Wax
??????
Carbon force before jeat seal or viceversa?
Hi Pedro! Apply Carbon Force before applying additional coatings such as glaze, sealant and/or wax.
No alcohol spray after the wax? Just wash, clay bar, wax, and than ceramic?
Hi Kyle! Cleanse the surface with Wipe Out before applying ceramic.
Can i use this product on top of paint protection film?
Hey! We do not recommend using Carbon Force on PPF. We recommend maintaining it with Wrap Detailer, it is designed to clean, shine, and protect glossy vinyl wraps, clear bras, and printed graphics to keep your wrapped surfaces looking their best and lasting their longest.
www.chemicalguys.com/wrap-detailer-unique-quick-detailer-and-protectant-for-vinyl-wraps/wrap-detailer-gloss-enhancer.html
@@ChemicalGuys can you please send me a link to it so i can check.
Can this be applied on plastic trims?
Hey! Use Carbon Force for gloss painted or shiny surfaces. Check out HydroShield to quickly add a durable layer of protection to textured plastic and rubber trim.
What polish to use? P4? VSS? V-38?
Hey! Every vehicle is different so it may need a light polish such as P4 or more aggressive such as VSS.
Hi guys, can you apply it to yours wheels and glass?
Absolutely!
Can this be applied while outside in the sun?
Hey! It is best to apply ceramic in a cool, shaded area to prevent flashing and contamination.
What if you are using this product for a client and aren’t able to leave the car in a controlled environment for 12 hours to cure? Any suggestions? Cheers
Tell them before hand that they will have to leave there car
How long does the process take?? Hrs, days??
Hi Marvin! Every detail job is different. Prepping and applying ceramic coating can take 4 to 6 hours depending on what is needed.
Can this product be followed by the flow chart?
Hello! Yes, apply ceramic before adding glaze, sealant and/or wax.
What can I use to remove hard water stains on car windows
Compound
Hey1 We recommend Heavy Duty Water Spot Remover Gel. Water spots are the mineral stains left over after a drop of water evaporates. The specialty gel neutralizes alkaline stains with a mild acid, removing the stuck-on water stain quickly and effortlessly
www.chemicalguys.com/heavy-duty-water-spot-remover/water-spot-remover.html
Vinegar will be the cheapest and easiest
@@ChemicalGuys thanks you I will order some from you store
Ok thanks everyone
What happens if you just put the coating on top of existing spray ceramic waxes instead of going thru the whole clay bar and cleaning process??
Hi there! Thanks for your message. Applying ceramic coatings without prepping the surface will risk locking in contaminants as well as swirls and scratches.
This is a base layer, like a foundation for a house. You wouldn't put a wood foundation then stack concrete on top. Strip your current coatings and apply then choose which one you want to top it off with after 24 hour cure time
Can I apply this to plastic trim? Will it turn the rubber around the side windows and any other rubber white-ish?
Hey! We recommend masking off trim when applying Carbon Force. Thanks for watching and thanks for being part of the Chemical Guys family!
