Brooklyn Grey on Ceramic coating/ PPF?

Hello was wondering if anyone here has put ceramic coating or ppf on their Brooklyn Grey? If you have, I'd like to see some pictures please. I'm trying to decide if I want to do one for mine. Thank you

Probably won't do PPF, but I may do ceramic. I'd like to see some pics as well.

I dont think PPF will enhance the appearance at all, PPF is designed for protection. IF PPF is done right you cant even tell the car has it. Ceramic either over the paint, or the PPF, will enhance the gloss of the finish.

Lovey!

I did not realise until I was shown in the sunlight by the detail company that Brooklyn Grey is actually a metallic paint! It looks amazing in so many different lighting situations as you say. So different in real life too vs photos

Thank you for sharing that photo. I have the same exact car exterior so this is perfect.

I feel like the Brooks grey has a natural shine because of its unique color so I was wondering if you saw a difference after ceramic. I just spray wax my car and right now it looks great! Trying to decide if i want to spend $1k to ceramic if I could just spray wax between wash. Unless if the shine is a much clearer look. What are your thoughts
