Picked it up from being professionally ceramic coated!

Hi. Thinking of adding this to my Telluride. I picked mine up a month ago. I know very little about the process. Called a local shop with good reviews. They quoted me $1000. 7 year warranty/ two-part SiC ceramic coating.
I would love to hear from other Telluride owners who have this and if it is really worth it?

I've had my Telluride right over a month too. I did 1 step paint correction, and IGL Kenzo ceramic coating 5yr. He did whole vehicle included wheels and windows. I paid $1300.

Thanks for your response. Can I ask why you needed the paint correction?

It was included in the package. Removed any minor swirls, scratches, blemishes, etc

The paint correction is a necessary step to ensure the paint is both clean and and (minor) scratch free. The coating fills in the microscopic valleys in the paint to provide a smooth surface. Even though it looks smooth to the eye, it's actually like a jagged mountain range of peaks and valleys. The paint correction smooths out the peaks and cleans out the valleys so the coating can adhere (and look) the best.

If you're interested, there is a detailing thread that goes into more depth: 2021 Telluride Detailing Thread

Can you share which phone mount/holder and black USB cords you purchased please?

These are the phone mount/holders I purchased in my other post here:

Phone mount

Just got my new telluride last night. What is the beat option for a phone mount? Not a cup holder mount. Thanks

I got these 3 ft cables for my kids to use in the back seat. I plug into the side of the seatback and hang on the hook.

And these one foot cables for use on the driver phone to connect to CarPlay.

I got mine last week. Pricey for what it is, but definitely the best design.
