I got my car and wheels ceramic coated and now my 11-year-old e93 looks super glossy and brand new!
Here's a quick video of the process:

Of course it depends on the size of the vehicle and condition of your paint but it's around $1k Canadian.

Hi SHEEDI,

Glenn here from Wetwerks. We only did a 1 step for Tara as her car was freshly painted. We used a special house Glass coating (Still Ceramic, but not what is known as Ceramic coating in the industry) on Tara's car and only did 2 layers.
