I had a 2016 C7 vert (bought new) in shark skin metallic. Did nothing to it for almost 6 years - traded it in on my C8. Paint was pristine - windshield tiny pitting from tiny grains of sand ( I guess) hitting it. My C8 - had a guy - rep from Adams apply graphene ceramic coating to my car including the windshield in my garage - had all the proper gear incl lighting. Next day he came back and applied graphene ceramic booster. Took delivery of my 2022 Oct. 2021 - so far - no marks anywhere. I applied the booster this winter while it sits in my garage. I have maybe washed the car once - the wheels and tires more often. Dust just comes off using a good microfiber cloth. The surface of the car is so smooth like glass. Driven it 5000 km only - so, does not get much road time. My son has an Audi SQ5 with PPF. Someone hit him and he had to get it fixed incl. PPF reapplied. Original not installed that well - not wrapped around edges far enough. Sop, key is to get a shop that does a good job and has lots of references. Good luck!! PPF + ceramic is probably the way to go.

[QUOTE="JCWP, post: 294752, member: 3249"] I had a 2016 C7 vert (bought new) in shark skin metallic. Did nothing to it for almost 6 years - traded it in on my C8. Paint was pristine - windshield tiny pitting from tiny grains of sand ( I guess) hitting it. My C8 - had a guy - rep from Adams apply graphene ceramic coating to my car including the windshield in my garage - had all the proper gear incl lighting. Next day he came back and applied graphene ceramic booster. Took delivery of my 2022 Oct. 2021 - so far - no marks anywhere. I applied the booster this winter while it sits in my garage. I have maybe washed the car once - the wheels and tires more often. Dust just comes off using a good microfiber cloth. The surface of the car is so smooth like glass. Driven it 5000 km only - so, does not get much road time. My son has an Audi SQ5 with PPF. Someone hit him and he had to get it fixed incl. PPF reapplied.
