What does a ceramic coating do?
In brief explanation, a Ceramic Coating is a liquid enamel that adds additional protection to your car's exterior finish and helps keep its showroom shine with comparatively minimal maintenance. The coating achieves these results by making your vehicle more resilient and hydrophobic. It is critical that the paintwork is properly polished & prepared prior to installation. Here are the main benefits:
Protection from UV damage / oxidization
If a vehicle is too often exposed to the sun's ultraviolet rays, its paint will begin to oxidize which will result in a dulled and faded look.
Chemical stains and etching resistance
Another danger for your car is chemical staining from naturally acidic contaminants like bird droppings, bugs, tar, tree sap, or any other mineral deposits.
Hydrophobic Technology
The most significant feature of a Ceramic Coating is its hydrophobicity. This helps to repel unfiltered water, mud and grime contaminants, and other hazardous liquids that can damage your paint by making it a more difficult time bonding to your vehicle’s paint. Also, when you wash your car, contaminants can be removed with less effort.
Enhanced Gloss
Adding a Ceramic Coating will bring out your car's highest level of gloss. This will help maintain your car's showroom finish.
