Anyone ever get a rig ceramic coated? Is it worth it?

Yep, have done my truck, wife's car and my old collector Bimmer, an M635Csi. Makes cleanup very easy and they stay cleaner longer. Dust blows of a lot easier going down the highway.

Yes, it is worth it.
It is not license to neglect your car or truck with respect to keeping the paint clean. And like any product that is applied you need to due your due diligence on the shop that will apply it because it can be f.vcked up and it’s not easy to correct at that point. A good detail/paint shop should be very honest with you regarding the condition of you paint and how much prep and or corrective work will be required before the ceramic is applied.

Had my sig p320 compact done.
Went with "Burnt Bronze" which i thought really changed the look for the better.
Residue from firing, cleans up easy.
To me it was worth it. Had a couple aftermarket barrels that i purchased done also, i'm not a stainless finish fan
so had the barrels done in "graphite black"
I see no negatives except the expense.

My current ride is ceramic coated. It seems to stay cleaner for a longer period of time.
My biggest fear is when I die my wife will sell my guns for what I told her they cost.
