Very pleased indeed with this product. Preparation of your paintwork before application is essential in my opinion. I thoroughly washed the car with snow foam and rinsed with water. Then using a clay... See more

Not a good experience

Not a good experience. Persuaded to purchase ceramic coating by Porsche East London (with new car) on basis it would "protect paintwork". Never bothered previously. No mention of paint chip exclusion or indeed any other exclusion on limited literature provided. Small but deep chip/scratches caused by small stone noticed about 4 months after purchase. GTechniq pointed me to small print of terms provided on line (tick box only) at registration (some days after purchase) with a list of items not covered. These terms were never sent to me.
They then tell me that chip exclusion is standard practice which is not borne out by my own research. Coating appears to have offered no protection at all against offending small stone - inspection requested/declined by GTechniq. Was ceramic coating applied correctly? How do they know?
It cannot be right to attempt to retro apply terms and conditions after sale.
If you have had similar issues with GTechniq please post here.

Reply to response from GTechniq:

Making a customer aware of product limitations post sale is totally unacceptable. Particularly when it is obviously such a contentious area. Why isn't your marketing material clear?

See independent review below.

Does Ceramic Coating Protect Against Rock Chips? A Clear and Effective Answer (2023) - RideRambler

Extracts:

"In summary, ceramic coating can provide a layer of protection against rock chips, but it is not as effective as PPF.

While wax and sealant can provide some protection against rock chips and other types of damage, they are not as effective as ceramic coating.

Aside from its ability to protect against rock chips, ceramic coating also offers several other benefits for car owners.”

Further Response:
You have still not confirmed why your product limitations are confirmed POST sale. They simply have no validity.
I had reasonable expectations of the product.
If a County Court rules in my favour will you undertake to make a payment of £1000 to a charity of my choice?

Latest updates:

No response from GTechniq. Disappointing but consistent.

08/04/24 - GTechniq now pushes me back to Porsche when they know full well that I have recourse rights against either retailer (Jardine) or manufacturer (GTechniq). Nice.

Dear Graham,

We are sorry to hear of the above experience.

It is important to note that Gtechniq in no way makes any claims on our literature or websites that state the product protects the paint from stone chips.

All the literature states that the system makes paint slick, offers UV, swirl, and chemical resistance, and makes the paint much easier to maintain.

The only product that will offer protection against stone chips would be a paint protection film which is very different from a ceramic coating.

When customers sign up for the guarantee we make it clear in the terms and conditions that stone chips are not covered.

Kind Regards

Gtechniq

In response to the updated review;

At no point does Gtechniq make claims that our product offers protection against stone chips.

RideRambler is not a representative of Gtechniq and is in no way connected with Gtechniq. His statement above is incorrect.

Many Thanks

Dom

Response to the last few points (Further Response)
We do not make any claims in any of our literature or websites that the product protects from stone chips. We are very clear and state it reduces swirls, resists high pH wash chemicals, and makes ongoing maintenance easy.

As with any contract there are terms and conditions where we stipulate the exclusion. These are publicly available via our site for those who want to view them whilst considering the purchase.

Your contract of sale would be with the dealership that you purchased the product from, so your last point would be one for them to consider and advise further on.

Having used many different products…

Having used many different products over the years I am always sceptical when it comes to spending more and being disappointed but have to say after my first experience with several products I ordered recently I'm impressed!

DIY ceramic coating

Never used a DIY ceramic coating before. Went on very easily: Crystal Serum Light followed by Evo v4 from the Ultimate Protection Kit. 30ml enough for a smallish SUV (Mazda CX30). It makes the Soul Red really pop. Time will tell how durable it is....

Amazing

Such great products. Amazingly easy to apply and my customers are extremely happy with the results. Cannot recommend Gtechniq enough. Their coatings and other products are by far the best without a shadow of a doubt

I ordered the products, they arrived on time and I plan to use them after the ppf is fitted in a few weeks time.
I have no doubt the product will do what I need.
