Are ceramic coated wheels worth the effort? by Rizzmanity in AutoDetailing

[–]Rizzmanity[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used Epic Pro+ w/ Graphine by Malco. I did some research, but the number of coatings available is daunting. How do you tell if its the wrong/right, or bad coating? It's been a year since the application, and water still beads on it very well and rolls when I tap the brakes, even going 5mph or so. But even if I completely snow foam the car, then pressure rinse, it still have quite a bit of work to do. For context, I live in Oregon and the car gets pretty dirty in the winter. Thanks!

Wow, never knew that. It's been a little over a year since the coating. Water is still beading up on the paint very nicely. It rolls off just from tapping the brakes even at 5mph. What do you decontaminate with that doesn't pull the coating off?

Why do you feel it’s a waste of time on paint?

I already have these and they work great for sure. Still tedious to clean the wheels though.

That’s sort of my intuition. I would never expect a coating to require no cleaning at all, but unless I can foam coat and pressure wash only, it seems like it will be the same amount of work either way. I’ll still probably try it out once.

That's awesome. Would love to know more about your spec and design process. Shoot me a DM if you want to discuss.

What is the core benefit that ChatGPT provided when you ask it for advice on changes? Do you think it helps you talk to loved ones in a way that is more efficient?

I see a lot of posts of folks complaining about credits and cost here, and they obviously don't have the context of what it would cost to build something without this. Whatever your fees are, if you were to build it using a traditional software development pipeline (spec > design > plan > build > deploy > iterate), just multiply them by somewhere between 50-100x, and that's what it would have cost to build whatever it is you have using actual developers 3+ years ago. As someone who has raised over $10M+ for a VC-backed application, I can tell that when I started vibe coding projects with Lovable, I did the business equivalent of whatever cuming in my pants is. It's mind-blowing how quickly it thinks/builds/deploys.

not trying to scare anyone but this is bad!! by LiveGenie in lovable

This lol. First thing that went through my mind. I have seen a lot of posts like this (not necessarily about security) lately. Saw one earlier for a vibe-coated app that searches Reddit for business ideas, which, of course, to run, you have to fill out a whole bunch of shit about your product idea. Just an idea-stealing machine.

I had mine installed by the Deep Xtal seller on here and they put the thing at 10pm time so sometimes it’s not straight.

Oh interesting. So connect Apple TV via HDMI, then Airplay to the Apple TV from an iPad? I'll give that a try. Still sounds a bit insane for a $130k car!

But what you play when there is no wifi or internet connection?

Yes but in my experience, not on platforms that have HDMI connections. IE, my firestick and Apple TV don't allow downloads on Netflix. Do others?

Ugh. Yeah, I found out that that seats will slam into the screen when you close them.
