When sister publication Aviation Consumer tried professionally applied ceramic coatings on several test bed aircraft a couple of years ago, the big question wasn’t if the coating provides a brilliant, slick finish, but instead would it stand the test of time? To see how it held up, we brought one of the aircraft back to an aircraft detailer for touch-ups and flew away more than satisfied with the original high investment.
Long-term Ceramic Coating: Worth The Effort, Price
Key Takeaways:
- *Aviation Consumer* conducted a long-term evaluation of professionally applied ceramic coatings on aircraft.
- The primary focus of the test was to determine the durability and longevity of the coatings over time, rather than just their initial appearance.
- After several years and follow-up maintenance, the ceramic coatings were found to have held up well, making the initial high investment satisfactory.
