What Is Ceramic Coating?
Ceramic coatings are liquid polymers that are applied by hand to the exterior of a vehicle with a microfiber applicator pad. The coating then chemically bonds with the vehicle’s factory paint creating a super hard (10H on the pencil scale, which measures hardness) level of protection.
Let us explain...
What Does It Do?
Over time and exposure to the sun, paint will begin to oxidize and the results will become faded or dulled looking paint. Leaving your vehicle more susceptible to rust and corrosion. A layer of a professional grade ceramic coating will protect a vehicle’s paint from the sun’s harmful ultraviolet rays.
First things first, a ceramic coating protects your vehicle's clear coat and paint from UV damage and oxidation.
Another danger to your vehicle’s paint job is chemical staining from naturally occurring acidic contaminants, such as acid rain and more common, bird droppings. Ceramic coatings create a chemically resistant surface, and can also prevent most contaminants from bonding to your vehicle’s painted surface for years.
Secondly, ceramic coating protects from chemical stains
Probably one of the most significant features of a ceramic coating is its hydrophobic properties. Which means, its ability to repel water. When a vehicle is coated, water should bead on the surface which should allow the water to slide off more easily. This will allow the harmful contaminants that are carried in rain water such as salt, chlorine, and lead, to have a more difficult time bonding to your vehicle.
Third, ceramic coating helps with ease of cleaning
A professional grade ceramic coating enhances the reflective properties of the vehicle’s paint and clear coat, adding depth and clarity to your paint. If you want you vehicle looking its best, a ceramic coating is a great option.
