What Is A Ceramic Coating?
To put things simply, a ceramic coating is a layer of protection for your vehicle’s exterior. It’s a hyper durable, and extremely hard layer of Silicon Dioxide (glass) that cures to the entire exterior of your vehicle’s paint, glass, and other surfaces. Not only do ceramic coatings give a rich, glossy appearance to the car paint that is absolutely unmatched, but a nano ceramic coating is designed to last somewhere between 3 and 7+ years depending on the coating you choose. Ceramic coatings have 3 jobs:
1. Long term paint protection (No need to wax anymore!)
2. Beautiful gloss and shine (and we mean BEAUTIFUL)
3. Make maintaining your vehicle’s appearance much easier
How Does A Ceramic Coating Work?
After the ceramic coating is applied to the paint, it is as if your vehicle has an extra layer of ultra durable, micro scratch resistant, and hydrophobic skin. Ceramics are designed to protect against everything that touches the paint from the outside world: bird droppings, bugs, rain, pollen, surface scratches, and much more. While normal auto detailing services can help clean and protect the paint temporarily, ceramic coatings form a sort of shield that protect your investment until the day it’s traded in which means more money in your pocket! Automotive ceramic coatings are the hardest, most durable, and advanced form of paint protection that exists! We’re talking YEARS of protection… not months!
Washing and maintaining your car is inconvenient and tiresome… So after we spend $50,000 on a vehicle we slowly watch it degrade more and more over time because we just don’t want to keep up with it. We think it’s crazy to pay thousands of dollars for a car, drive it unprotected, and trade it in for pennies years later.
After the paint has been completely cleaned, decontaminated, and we’ve created a smooth surface through paint correction, a thin layer of the liquid ceramic coating is applied to the paint, left to cure, then carefully buffed off until all that remains is a thin ceramic layer that is left for 6-12 hours in order to cure. It’s that simple.
