How to get your car ready for a #CarsOf7Eleven Photoshoot
Prep your car with a nice touchless wash, and get ready to show your shiny paintjob. One important thing about being featured on 7-Eleven's Instagram is making sure your car's appearance is in tip top shape. Once your car has been thoroughly washed, decontaminated, and checked for any impurities, we recommend ceramic coating your car for an even further gloss enhancement. We recommend using ceramic coating. Ceramic coating uses high performing hydrophobic properties that presents an ultra slick, ultra easy application process that will have your car looking beautiful in no time. Maybe you can take a hose to the paint in the 7-Eleven parking lot, and show off your new water-beading technology? Or, take some beautiful close ups of the glossy surface that has been amplified by your new coating.
