DIY Paint Protection with Mothers California Gold Ceramic

Mothers Polish introduced a new line of California Gold Ceramic washing and detailing products to pamper our cars during the summer months. 

These new products offer DIY paint protection for those who don’t want to spend thousands for PFF or professionally installed ceramic coating. Yes, PPF and ceramic coating offer longevity if applied correctly. But not everyone can afford to spend that kind of money to maintain a shiny, clear coat. 

Some still enjoy hand-washing their cars on a Sunday morning in the driveway. The therapeutic activity of washing your own vehicle by hand or using specific tools hasn’t gone out of style.

With Mothers California Gold Ceramic products, you can treat your car’s paintwork with a luxurious lather of paint protection and shine without breaking a sweat or the bank.

How to Use Mothers California Gold Ceramic Products 

The proper way to use these products and achieve the ultimate results is to start with the California Gold Ceramic Wash & Wax. Ensuring the painted surfaces are scrubbed, cleaned, washed, and free of any contaminants or pollutants. 

Then, using an application pad or buffing tool, use the California Gold Ceramic Paint Correction Compound solution. 

The product works like most polishing compounds. Apply in small sections and allow it to haze before removing it with a microfiber towel. Repeat until the entire vehicle has been treated. This product helps remove unwanted imperfections, such as light scratches or staining from acid rain, from painted surfaces while leaving a saturated, glossy shine.

Afterward, you have the option to apply California Gold Ceramic Spray Wax for an additional shine. The application is straightforward, using the spray bottle to coat small areas and removing it with a microfiber towel.

The result of using all three Mothers California Gold Ceramic products is a paint finish that is not only clean and shiny but also protected with hydrophobic properties, helping to prevent rain and road grime from sticking to the surface.

Reviving the Old Paint on My Ranch Worn 1969 Camaro 

I tested the new Mothers California Gold Ceramic products on my 1969 Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 tribute. The paintwork on this car is pushing 30 years old, 10 of those years being exposed to the harsh conditions of a South Texas ranch. 

I chose this car to give the Mothers Polish ceramic products a real test. Applying them on a modern car with a young clear coat is easy. But suppose they could revive the many paint imperfections on my old muscle car. A true testament of quality. 

A bit of backstory on the state of my Camaro. From a distance, the car appears to be a pristine, period-correct example of a red-blooded muscle car. But standing close, it’s impossible to ignore the dents, scuffs, and gashing scratches caused by varying living entities on my ranch. 

For example, a significant dent on the driver’s side door is thanks to our male goat, Maverick, who liked to rest by leaning on the side of the car. The hood and front fenders are littered with scratches because one of our dogs decided she enjoyed taking naps on top of the Camaro and constantly jumped on it using her razor-sharp paws. 

Easy to Apply, Great Results 

Full disclosure, I am not a car detailer. I’m not even an experienced car polisher. I loathe washing and waxing cars, and most of my personal vehicles don’t have paint worthy of stressing over. 

I’m happy to say that using Mothers California Gold Ceramic products was an easy and painless experience. If I can do it, anyone can. Moreover, I achieved the desired results by simply following the directions listed on the product bottle. 

Photos will show how using Mothers California Gold Ceramic Paint Correction Compound and Spray Wax helped vanish away the ugly scratch marks on my 1969 Camaro. It didn’t take hours of buffing to achieve these results because the products are fast-acting or work as smoothly as the finish they leave behind. 

I’m pleased with how these products work. My Camaro is not in a condition to justify the cost of professional ceramic coating or PPF. So, products like Mothers California Gold Ceramic allow me to treat my car to look its best without needing to hire a professional detailer.
