I don't have a Modesta installer in my state so that option is out. Big investment, close to 2k for either including paint correction, wheels and calipers. Pro and consumer advice appreciated. It's for an Atlas Grey Metallic 997. The car is a Sunday driver garage queen.

I'm looking for ease of maintenance (easy no spotting washes) and longevity. Thanks guys.

 

This is what I've applied to my car:

It is an easy application and the paint looks great after 16 months. I wash the car with deionized water (http://www.detailedimage.com/CRSpotl...00-Gallons-S2/) and dry with a blower (http://www.detailedimage.com/Metro-V...ar-Dryer-P916/). I top off the paint with a layer of silica-based finishing coat (http://www.detailedimage.com/22ple-M...947/250-ml-S1/) after each wash (http://www.detailedimage.com/CarPro-...30/1000-ml-S2/). Hope this helps.

drsullivan, yes, that does help. While I'm going to have the 911 professionally done with either CQ Finest or Opti-Coat Pro I'm also looking to coat our two daily drivers myself before the snow flies. I (wife) can't justify the expense to have all three done professionally. Thanks
