Over the past few weeks I've ceramic coated my E92 M3 (Jerez Black), F30 328i (Jet Black) , and F87 M2 (Alpine White).
The prep is the most time consuming. Each vehicle I washed really well, clayed, then polished with a Rupes machine and Rupes polish to get all of the swirls out, then an IPA wipe just before applying the coating.
I used the Avalon King Armor Shield IX ceramic material. It's actually the easiest part of the whole process, taking only about 45 mins per car to apply. Easy on, easy off. I left it to cure in the garage for two days before driving them, and did not drive in the rain for the recommended time of 7 days.
Hopefully it lasts for a bit, but so far so good. If you have the time, patience and desire, its not very difficult to DYI.
