Las Vegas, Nevada – Preparing to attend and inform everyone about the upcoming SEMA/AAPEX to update everyone on the new changes that manufactures have applied to cars, trucks and mortorcycles. SEMA will be held at the Las Vegas Convention Center November 4-7, 2025. AAPEX will be held at The Venetian Expo & Caesars Forum November 4-6. 2025.
Reference to my coverage at the 2024 show I will be looking at updates of the following referred to in my past observance: Considering that new paint jobs cost thousands of dollars, manufacturers and vehicle builders often use a ceramic protective coating on the newly painted surfaces. So, how do ceramic products fit with traditional waxes and polishes? I think of it this way; consumer product companies regularly offer new and improved offerings (e.g., tooth care products) and electronic businesses add accessory items to their product lines. Ceramics are a means of extending the range of car care products sold and used by commercial auto stores as well as professional detailers. Ceramic products do not necessarily replace or make traditional waxes and polishes obsolete.
