Hit up Zack the owner of Cleaner Gobi @ 48043five,095three. I just did that for spam bots lol. he's a great guy and lives in QC but he drives for a small fee and he's great with the ceramic coatings and detail interior sand exteriorAny suggestions for ceramic coating and PPF in the valley? Preferably west side but willing to travel for a deal.
As a matter of fact, my son has his own automotive detail business. Normal drivers all the way to Rolls Royce, classic cars, and higher end C8 Corvettes and Teslas, you name it. He is certified in ceramic coating and does all the finishing and paint correction as well. Does it literally out of our house. Many references and photos of clients cars. WE did our Jeep once we took it home. Ceramic coating is awesome. Doesn't stop rock nicks but certainly swirls, minor scratches, and of course paint fade. Ours literally blows right off when we wash it. We have 4 cars in the family already ceramic coated.Any suggestions for ceramic coating and PPF in the valley? Preferably west side but willing to travel for a deal.
My son will do it for under $700 in most cases, but again a lot depends on the amount of paint correction needed and what you want. But you need to come to us for the deal. Has other services as well, and he can do the wheels for extra. Works with whatever your budget and wish list is. Call him (Zach) at 630-743-9995. Tell him you saw us on the forum.I've gotta guy that does mobile detailing. He's been detailing vehicles for me for almost 10 years. He just gave me a quote of 950 for ceramic coating. Haven't priced any where else yet.
As long as you go with a top notch ceramic, preferably 10H in hardness, those are hydrophobic and oleophobic, meaning they resist water and oil based contaminates. Bird crap included LOL. Again nothing can stop the rock dings except PPF. But mud flaps to contain the stones, but ceramic helps a ton on keeping the garbage from attacking the paint. And the shine is awesome and swirls are all but non-existent after... as long as you care for it properly.Perfect. I’ve gathered a few references between here and my old forum for ceramic. Any PPF recommendations? My wheels and tires are throwing all sorts of nasty crap at my rear fenders. I’ve messaged people on OfferUp but they never respond.
as for the PPF, buy some off Amazon, preferably 3M clear, and try it yourself. For a small area you might be surprised you can do it. The craft is in the full car, with bends and curves, and hiding the seams. Those guys put out a work of art.Perfect. I’ve gathered a few references between here and my old forum for ceramic.

Welcome to the forum. Yep, almost everything is a danger to your bank account when it has "Jeep" in it.Howdy all from Apache Junction. ... I've come to the conclusion that JLWranglerForums will be a huge danger to my bank account balance.
LOL...I haven't given up defending the cash just yet but it's hard...so damned hard...Welcome to the forum. Yep, almost everything is a danger to your bank account when it has "Jeep" in it.
Are you through defending?
Full or part time AJ?
you are correct in your assumption unfortunately hahaHowdy all from Apache Junction.
Purchased a new 2021 Snazzberry JL from Courtesy on 2/5/21.

The defending question was not directed towards the cash, but was a round about way of asking if you were retired. The ribbon, after all, is a National Defense Service Medal ... yes?LOL...I haven't given up defending the cash just yet but it's hard...so damned hard...
I started small with the mods I've done but my experience tells me it will all lead to more and bigger mods. My rigs don't stay stock for long!
First full year in AJ ended a few days ago. We relocated to AJ from Orygun last February. We have a few friends down here + the wife's oldest daughter, son-in-law and 4 grandsons live in Fountain Hills so we're comfortable here.
I have NOT acclimated to the summers here though.
Yup...as I figured it will be.you are correct in your assumption unfortunately haha
Ahh...sorry for misunderstanding the reference. Yes, that is the National Defense Service Medal. Former SAC Trained Killer here, USAF 1972 - 1976, 8th Air Force, 93rd Bomb Wing; Castle AFB, CA.The defending question was not directed towards the cash, but was a round about way of asking if you were retired. The ribbon, after all, is a National Defense Service Medal ... yes?
No, I have not and that interests me. I'm a total Jeep Noob and I'm sure there are folks out there who wouldn't mind showing a Noob such as myself how to use my Jeep.Have you hooked up with any Facebook group yet?
Now that's the sort of thing me and the Mrs. would enjoy. She mentioned today she'd like to go exploring and spend a night out in the desert gazing at the stars. I'm all for it.Here is what I posted a couple of months ago:
About two years ago, a group from this forum organized a run through Box Canyon - Florence. It was a success, but was hard to organize. One of the members said it would be easier to handle on Facebook, so he started the "Four Corners off-road Adventures" Facebook Group. In hindsight, the lack of "Jeep" in the title has allowed folks to skip over the group when searching for fellow Jeepers. It currently has162169 members. A little later, AZ Newbie Jeepers was formed as a Facebook group. With "Newbie" and "Jeep" in the title, folks seemed to find it a little easier when searching. Newbies is currently at940958 members. This past spring two other groups sprang up - "State 48 Jeepers" and "Arizona Jeepers" - and grew very rapidly. State 48 Jeepers has just passed10001.3k members and Arizona Jeepers have849808 members. Each of the groups has a slightly different personality, energy for organizing trail rides, and helpfulness towards fellow members.
I guess a bone stock Jeep can still do what's needed for some easy trail rides. I'm just not going to try a boulder field on my first outing. LOLThere are a few other virtual groups on Facebook and the internet that cover Arizona, but these are the four that I've joined and continue to follow. The thing that makes all four stand out is the positive attitude displayed in the postings. There is NONE of the "negativity", "that's a stupid question", and "read the manual" crap that shows up in many Facebook groups.
There are a number of folks on those Facebook groups who love to camp. You'll fit right in with them. My missus thinks a credit card is all the camping equipment she needs, so we no longer camp under the stars.... Now that's the sort of thing me and the Mrs. would enjoy. She mentioned today she'd like to go exploring and spend a night out in the desert gazing at the stars. I'm all for it.

Thanks for the awesome information. I'm going to FB to do some searching!
