VERY SATISFIED WITH THE APPLICATION PROCESS AND OVERALL END LOOK!
The coating more closely resembled other professional grade coatings I've used in shop applications.

STOP wasting your time and $$$ on trying to maintain your car the old way
You’ll spend 5 times less time and 3 times less money on maintenance... and you’ll have a much deeper color and shine for much longer between the washes.
You know it makes sense...
Customer Reviews
Prep your car precisely before you apply. It will turn out beautifully.
I can’t say enough about armor shield max it was extremely easy to install and made my paint look like glass. I will definitely be using it in the future on all my vehicles.
I had used the original on the car and unfortunately it got rained on the next day so it didnt take to the car well due to the 2 day cure time. The IX MAX on the other hand, primo application and left in garage for 4 hours and set beautifully....only had it for a day but very very pleased with the results...also the customer service is best around, helpful, understanding, and very knowledgeable.
I must say I was skeptical at first. Being I'm not the typical detail guy. But when I preped my mustang for the simple process I must say damn.. it was so easy, and the results, by far the best I've seen. I'm so very happy. Great product and excellent customer service. Can't wait to use other products and see what new products come out in the future.
I ordered the new Max to use a refresh Coating over a 1.5 year old Armor Shield application. The Jeep's paint had been accidentally over sprayed and required some paint correction to remove, so I used MAX as the top coat.
Product went on/flashed/buffed off as easily as the original, but the gloss finish was impressive. Since then, there has been (2) snow storms and the paint is staying remarkably clean. Since this Grand Cherokee is no longer garaged, the real test will be how long the hydrophobic performance lasts. So good so far!!
