My Gen 3

The paint was not great and needed a lot of machine polishing. I think the ceramic coating just seals the paint. The car has never been garaged and only washed a few times every year. With all the rain and the amount of run off from the fields it slides off. I had a very good deal from the local detailer and they got rid of many small scratches. Its not that clean now though, it could do with a wash.

I might get some of the Autoglym Ceramic and give it a try. I do have some Autoglym detailing spray but forgotten what it is.

Anyway, fantastic looking Jimny and welcome to the forum.

I bought the Autoglym Ceramic (20% off at Euro Car Parts) and washed my Jimny and other car on Saturday and applied the ceramic coat to the Jimny Sat afternoon and then my other car Sunday morning.

I also bought the Autoglym Rapid Glass, the muck that came off both the outside and inside took some believing, but what a difference.

Sadly no pictures it started raining fairly hard after I had finished but what a great shine and protective coat the ceramic is. The rain just went in to large drops rather like mercury does and just shot off any sloping surface, hopefully the muck and mud will do the same.

Thanks for the tip

I keep hoping to wash mine. Its been a while since I last washed it but its been raining every time I've been off. I'm just glad I have a Jimny with all the local flooding in my area. It is nice to see the beads off water roll around the bonnet.
