    didn't you say that yours was done with xzilon? I don't think that is ceramic coat. Now I'm not saying my car won't get dirty, but so far when I clean the wheels they clean off very easy

    My understanding is that xzylon is just a type of ceramic coating.
    They use words like "molecular adhesion", but the claims about easy cleaning are the same.

    I'm not saying the dust/dirt/bugs are not easy to remove, because they are and water beads up like nobody's business as well.

    But the dark granite color highlights any dust - but that is the color my wife wanted.
    So, maybe that is why I am constantly wiping it down.

    If your weather is like it is here I’m guessing you won’t be washing the car

    I wish it would rain here in South Texas.
    Summer has already arrived.
