Ceramic coating on interior trim

GargoyleBWM · 07-02-2022, 12:52 PM

Wondering if anyone has applied a ceramic coat on their interior yet?

I ordered some CQ.UK 3.0 for the interior and exterior running boards, maybe some of the other Shadowline trim.

I already have a full front clip PPF and just want to protect that gloss black from scratches as much as possible. It sounds like the ceramic coating is compatible with almost everything but thought I would check with others about it working on the plastic.

I PPF'ed the black gloss instead. I don't think ceramic will protect against scratches TBH. 3K and over month still looks like new and much easier to maintain between cleans no finger prints either

5 month unprotected and looks new. I had piano black on other cars and never had an issue so it is what it is.

Buy the CF pieces to cover the interior piano black

I am not a big fan of CF--picked the 'piano black' on purpose and it looks great w the Tacora Red leather. Just looking at how to make it more scratch-proof.

Gotcha, I think ceramic coat will keep the dust off, but I don't think it'll prevent scratches - for that you probably need a clear film.
