Enthusiast Essentials: next-level paint protection from Ceramic Pro

13 September, 2016

When you’re after paint protection, a wax coating is usually the common solution. Unfortunately that wax coating could end up being a false economy, as within weeks, and sometimes even days in harsher climates, the wax coating wears off, leaving you with unprotected paint without you even knowing.

Finding a long-lasting alternative is easy; Ceramic Pro is a nano-ceramic coating that doesn’t wear off, wash away, or break down over time. According to the Ceramic Pro team, it can’t even be removed with chemicals — think of it as a glass- or diamond-coat for your paint job. 

One of the best parts of waxing your car is the gloss, and watching the water bead off it. With the added protection of Ceramic Pro, you not only get an extremely high-gloss shine, the coating is extremely hydrophobic. The glass-like appearance, water-beading capabilities, and protection will last a lifetime too — if it’s properly maintained. 

Do it once, do it right comes to mind when you’re working with Ceramic Pro, as you will never have to wax your car again — simply have the protection completed and you’re good to go. If you thought Ceramic Pro was only for paint, think again. Ceramic Pro have a coating for your wheels, calipers, plastic surfaces, glass, leather, and more.

Lunch with … Rodger Anderson

22 November, 2024

At first, I wondered if I’d driven up the wrong driveway. The car in the garage was an early Mustang resplendent in royal blue with two broad gold stripes, which was not what I was expecting. I knew that Rodger Anderson, who made his name in Minis and a BMW 2002, was a Porsche man these days — the other end of the spectrum from American muscle. I had no idea of his affection for Detroit iron. It didn’t take long to discover just how passionate this former Saloon Car Champion is about cars, as long as they’re interesting.

Back from the brink – 1968 MGB GT

15 November, 2024

Auckland classic car enthusiast Kerry Bowman soon realised he had a massive job on his hands in restoring his classic 1968 MGB GT. When Kerry and his MGB first appeared in New Zealand Classic Car in March 2021, in “Behind The Garage Door”, the stripped-out shell had revealed some nasty surprises. Once the true extent of the hidden damage was discovered, the work would normally have been handed over to a professional fabricator. However, with the assistance of experts such as MG specialist restorer, Paul Walbran, Kerry has completed an impressive restoration and saved this car from the scrapheap.
