Does anyone have any experience with Ceramic coatings from Amazon? I need to coat my roof and would rather buy from Amazon.
This one for example.

I find Adams products good but just looked at the one in the small bottle with the applicator and it's now $188 ! That's double since I last looked. Was going to use it on my truck but not now . Probably do your whole vehicle though. Don't know the one from your link I'm afraid. The Adams is 10H hardness rated . Good reviews if you can trust them.

They are well recommended, but the price is just too high for one roof. lol. I decided to spring for the meguires. $45

That stuff won't likely last a season.
You're better off with the Mcguires you bought.
I used this stuff on my Z06, and a couple motorcycles.
Prolly get 4-5 yrs from an application, and it works like Hollywood.
Not an easy job, but worth it, in the end.

Ya, I saw your post on it, but I wanted it tomorrow so I wanted to buy from Amazon. I wish I had PPF'd the roof when I bought the car. Lesson learned.That stuff won't likely last a season.

I have only used the Adam's stuff. Did our Explorer, and Caddy CT5 with one bottle. Held up well for better part if 2 years on both. The cars were daily drivers for my wife and me, and never saw the inside of the garage. Cars were rarely driven in the snow, so didn't get hit with salt or brine. I know this is for your Vette, bit I'm giving a bit of feedback on harder usage.

"Ceramic Pro" has held up for 6 years and counting, but as far as I know it's for pros alone. Alas I wrecked my roof and now I'm stuck. Adams is good, but would it last 6 years? The Ceramic pro I had done is supposed to last 10 years. My folly. Maybe a cheap ceramic car wash is better value. 
Had my ZL1 done in Ceramic Pro, by a shop, and while quite expensive they required the car to have a maintenance application coat done yearly, for $350.00, or the warranty was void.
A garage queen where after about 2.5 years(where it never saw rain, and had maybe 15-20 washes), it did not look great anymore.
My self applied Adam's looked far better, and looked great longer.

Interesting. What colour is your car?
Third season for mine which had Ceramic pro applied new and it still looks like day one . It is always inside if not being driven but it's driven daily. Mine is the Gold package. No requirement for yearly maintenance coats to maintain the warranty according to the installer but then I just dug this up......
Ceramic Pro’s warranty depends on the package:
Gold: Lifetime of the vehicle, provided annual inspections are completed.
Silver: 5 years.
Bronze: 2 years.
Sport: 6 months.
Wheel & Caliper: 36 months.
Glass/Rain: 12 months.
Missing the required annual inspection can reduce Gold coverage to 5 years from the last inspection, while Silver can become 2 years and Bronze 1 year.
Check your installer’s warranty paperwork, since newer packages—such as Ceramic Pro ION or LUX—may have different terms.

I got gold also. Mine still works flawlessly.
I'd have to assume almost all corvettes are stored indoors.
