I recently coated all the paint protection film on the Supra with Adam’s Graphene Ceramic Coating. It’s been a week, the coating has had the opportunity to fully cure so I wanted to give you an update and see how things are looking.

Here we are. Adam’s customer service told me that full cure time is about a week so I wanted to wait that long before washing the car. It’s a bit difficult to see it but there is a light coat of dust on the surface. I wanted to first look at the coating’s self-cleaning properties. This looks at the coating’s ability to remove light contaminants with just water pressure. It’s a bit difficult to see this in action on camera, but watch as the water hits the surface. Watch the leading edge of the water. That's where you’ll be able to see the action. If you didn’t catch it, the coating didn’t a very good job at preventing the dust from actually attaching to the paint and moved it right off with the water.

At this point, I’m going to wash the car so we can see what the coating can do without interference from the debris.

Let’s start with the hood. As you can see, the surface is extremely hydrophobic and water is rushing off at all the slightly angled sections. In places where water is left behind, it beads very tightly.

Moving on to the headlights and front bumper where there’s more of an angle to the panels. Again, water just runs right off the surfaces.

For me, the most impressive part is the front lip. Even though there’s only a slight curve to it, that’s all that’s needed for the water to pick up speed and just roll right off. It should be noted that the lip is wrapped with XPEL Ultimate Plus Stealth whereas everything else was wrapped with regular XPEL Ultimate Plus. Maybe Graphene Ceramic Coating works better with Stealth. Who knows?

Finally, let’s move on to the vertical side panels. On the left, the rocker panel and hood have been coated and on the right, the door has been stripped in preparation for more PPF so there’s no coating there. Let’s see what the difference is between a coated surface and bare paint. As you can see, there is a night and day difference. On the right where there’s no coating, water clings together and sheets much more slowly. On the left where I’ve applied Adam’s Graphene Ceramic Coating, the water doesn’t even want to be on the surface.

One more thing. If you’ve been keeping up with this channel, you know that I’ve been testing a few different car blow dryers. This was because I was using a blow dryer that’s kind of underpower and it struggled to blow dry a car. Well, how does the same leaf blower fair now with Graphene Ceramic Coating? To be honest, this test really surprised me. Graphene Ceramic Coating has allowed the weak leaf blower to blow water clear across the hood, from one side to the other. I was not able to do this with any of the dedicated car dryers that I’ve tried. This tells me that one, with this coating you may not need to blow money on a dedicated car blow dryer and just use a leaf blower if you have one. Two, if you have a nice car blow dryer, water is going to blast off like crazy. Again, I find this impressive.

So that’s Adam’s Graphene Ceramic Coating after one week. I can confidently say this is the most hydrophobic coating that I’ve ever applied. It’s great in that regard but hopefully, the other selling points of this coating also hold true, particularly that it will give 7+ years of protection. Only time will tell.
