I have never heard of any Ceramic Coating, or shop that does that work, with a 5 year warranty without any annual "maintenance" being performed. Typically they annually do a complete washing and inspection of the car and check for any areas that need touched up...all of this for a nominal charge. Lately, I've been charged $125 for the whole thing and without following that inspection, I'm clearly under the impression your warranty is voided or in jeopardy. You may want to check on that...and I do agree, a professional job for this service, you just can't beat how gorgeous the car turns out!
