Each coating application carries its own unique manufacturers warranty. They range from 1-9 years with each passing year requiring an annual refresher application.

Each coating company manufactures their product in very unique ways. As a result, mixing brands is not the best idea and may result if adhesion issues which will definitely affect the application warranties.

Contrary to popular belief, vehicles that roll directly off the showroom floor are not always prepped in the right way. A dealer prep will most likely include removal of all adhesive during a process called a PDI (Prep, Deliver, Inspect). During this PDI, the dealers main concern is to quickly prep, quickly deliver and quickly inspect. As a result, your brand new car normally gets delivered with extreme amounts of fallout that the human eye can't see. Coatings won't adhere properly to damaged or contaminated surfaces well and will this affect your warranty.
