What do they spray it with?Take your 200 to Line-X and have them spray it underneath. They do undercoating now and they will also treat inside the frame through the OEM holes. Had mine done and it still looks new. FYI- it smells for a few days afterwards.
They spray it with a rubberized fluid so it’s flexible and resistant to abrasion. Then they blow in a cavity wax through the frame channels. It comes with a 7yr guarantee from Line-X. I looked underneath and it’s pretty nice. However, it’s best to do this when no rust is present. Since I had a little rust in my welds, it stayed overnight so they could use a rust converter first.What do they spray it with?
That sounds like a terrible idea to be honest. Great way for corrosion cells to form underneath the protective layer, which is bound to happen, and cause crevice corrosion which degraded metal at a higher rate than surface rust.They spray it with a rubberized fluid so it’s flexible and resistant to abrasion.

Looks immaculate!

You want an O2 barrier installed (fluid film), not a rigid coating that came encapsulates and can trap water.
I should have not used the word rubber. It’s a wax-based sealant.That sounds like a terrible idea to be honest. Great way for corrosion cells to form underneath the protective layer, which is bound to happen, and cause crevice corrosion which degraded metal at a higher rate than surface rust.

Wax is better, but nothing is better that oil based rustproofing that creeps. Yes, requires reapplication, but gets to places where wax won't. I like Corrosion Free over Fluid Film.I should have not used the word rubber. It’s a wax-based sealant.
How easy are these to install? I’d like to get one for my 200 and my kids VolksHighest quality dash cam: BlackVue DR900x-2CH
This needs a dedicated thread with a review and install pics, and sample videos. Very interested.Highest quality dash cam: BlackVue DR900x-2CH
Can you elaborate on this? What exactly is paint correction?The high cost of ceramic coating isn't so much the coating as it is the paint correction and prep. I can tell you from personal experience that a new 21 will need major paint correction from factory before the coating. Do not coat unless you have corrected the paint or it's a waste of money.
Coming soon! I have dashcams on all 4 sides of both our cars. Incredibly helpful.This needs a dedicated thread with a review and install pics, and sample videos. Very interested.
What was the price?There are a LOT of imperfections from factory, from really every manufacturer. Paint is automated now and just doesn't do as good a job as a nice custom paint job from an expert. Swirls, micro scratches, uneven areas, foggy clearcoat, etc. My truck was night and day difference as well as my friends Ferrari F8. You'd think with only 800 miles and a Ferrari that it would be perfect, not even close. I'm not the expert for sure, but when my guy showed me the errors I was blown away. Here is his facebook page that you can check out all of his before and afters.

It took a good day and half of clay bar, buffing, and other stuff I forgot lol. I let the expert do his thing and it was well worth it, at least for me. The best before and after pics he has are the King Ranch, just nuts the stuff he can do.
