I have been using Avalon Kings Armor Shield IX on my vehicles. Here are some pictures the results on my bikes (and some distorted shots of me taking the pictures lol).

He coated the painted parts & black power coated parts. I mainly wanted the black powder coated parts ceramic coated because there were so many swirl marks in them. The detailer said it was the softest powder coat he ever polished. Its all about the prep work. The guy did an outstanding job. I am a believer in ceramic coating. He polished out all the swirl marks & then applied the ceramic coating. I am glad I had it done. They say the ceramic coat repels dirt, dust & bug splatter better. For better protection I plan on having some PPF (Paint Protection Film) applied to the front fairing & forks. The PPF protects better against small pebbles. The ceramic coat will still chip if a large enough pebble hits it.

it's almost as good, my guess is you've never used a dryer like a hog blaster.....the small end with the flexible hose makes it way easier to find and drive water out of nooks and crannies on the bike....again...a leaf blower could work, but not as effective
