Glass coating pika pika rain that is the most popular in Japan

Mr. C.T / Aichi, Japan / HONDA N-WGN 2013model

I applied coating by a certain famous coating chain shop about 1 year ago.
However, the effect was getting lower and lower as time goes by,
so I decided to try applying by myself.

Finally I met Pika Pika Rain PREMIUM.

“Is difficult to apply glass coating by myself?”
First I had the preconceived idea like above.

But I did the application, there was nothing to difficult,
so it was a letdown to find that the application was so easy (of course it is good meaning!).

I was impressed by the gloss, reflection on the car body and water repellency
as you can find the video.

Moreover, the water repellency is very nice, so it makes wiping easy after car washing.
It was unexpected.

As I said above, I asked the certain famous coating chain shops to apply expensive coating before,
but I will repeat to apply Pika Pika Rain PREMIUM without any doubts.
(However, they say that it can last 3 years, so I won’t apply it no so soon…)

Lasting this effect for long time is one its attractions.

This video is applying Pika Pika Pika Rain PREMIUM to my ODESSAY HIBRID.

For the first part, I was splashing after washing with shampoo which is contained degreasing agents.
For the second one is one week later when I applied Pika Pika Rain PREMIUM.

It was my second time for applying Pika Pika Rain products,
and I feel that PREMIUM is much better water repellency than SUPER.

My brand new cars got deep gloss,
so it is much better cost performing than applying by professional detailers 🙂

Just I regretted I tried not to apply too much because I afraid of running out of it…

I bought a brand new car in autumn of 2016.
The season changed to spring, I met Pika Pika Rain when I was considering about applying glass coating.

I watched the movie how to apply many times and I thought that I can do it by myself.
Then I bought Pika Pika Rain PREMIUM in March.

I washed my car with car shampoo, applied oil remover and dried as the instruction.
The glass coating spread very well so it was easy to apply.

It is difficult to find whether I applied or not due to its light color, I thought I could apply it evenly.
Because the touch changed from rough to smooth by the application.

Microfiber Cloth which attached to Pika Pika Rain PREMIUM was nice to wipe,
so I feel it was easier than car wax.

The gloss was gone by salt and sands because my daughter drive the shoreline to her work,
however, after the application, the gloss can be recover by splashing the water and it can also remove the dirt.

The movie is after 2 weeks of the application.
Its water-sliding effect makes me happy.

I’m looking forward to checking how long this condition can keep.

I applied Pika Pika Rain PREMIUM to my brand new car on Febuary 2017.
I decided to apply by myself because I couldn’t feel the effect of application by the detailer even though it was expensive.

I searched about it and I thought it was expensive, but I chose Pika Pika Rain because it contains SiO2.
SiO2 is a good material for finishing which is my hobby, too. It is one of main materials of a fishing rod and it is strong for the seawater.

In a fine water day, I washed my car, opened the doors to dry and applied Pika Pika Rain PREMIUM.
Its sponge was small, but it spread very well and I could find whether I applied or not while applying.
Also I can wipe with microfiber cloth immediately, so wiping was much easier than car wax.

However, just I could not find the result of scratches and the gloss due to the brand new car.
I used half a bottle which was appropriate amount as they said.

I kept it in the multistory car park and I for 13 days
and I compared with each conditions in similar weather, temperature and time.

First of all, I checked it in detail and then I found the place where I forgot to wipe.
There have already harden, so there might be one choice to solve it.

Moreover, there were some areas water spots which is in the glass layer.
Both of them were not so remarkable, so I decided to leave them.

However, I reflected on why I didn’t move my car and checked it by many angles under the sunlight.

About comparison the water repllency, before and after the application Pika Pika Rain PREMIUM, I did it on the vertical area and splashed the water with a spray type to find the differences easily.
Then I could find the water flowed equally and quickly on the new car paint surface.
From this, I think that it will be blown up by wind pressure when I drive.

About comparison the water repllency, before and after the application Pika Pika Rain PREMIUM, I couldn’t the big difference.
But I agree with it looks like the layer of glass.

I want to expect its durability from now, because it is SiO2 which is strong for sands and the dirt.

【Before】

【After】

I had read reviews since before, so I was looking forward to applying it.
Then I applied it as soon as I got received.

I didn’t t polish it because my car was brand new
Therefore, I removed the oil first and I applied Pika Pika Rain PREMIUM.

I worried about applying the oil remover for the solid color car body,
but I could apply it without fading the color.

Sometimes the sponge with the glass coating squeaked, but I dealt with it by I applied it slowly.
It spread well as other people said,
so I could finish the application to my SWIFT SPORTS with a little (about 1/3).

My Champion-yellow SWIFT SPORTS doesn’t have the clear layer of the car paint surface,
but the finishing was beautiful, so I was really satisfied with it.

Before the application, I though that the glass coating is just
However, my car got the amazing water repellency and gloss, so I was happy to apply it.

Its water repellency much better than any other cars even though rainy days.
If its the durability good, it is the best without any questions!

I’m going to reapply it with remained of the liquid.

Also it’s my personal recommendation, applying it to a number plate because it can remove bugs easily.

Looking forward to the results from now, too!
