Ceramic Coating : The Basics
We understand that you want your ride to look lovely all the time and you’re comfortable in trying whatever fits your preferences and budget.
You have tried several things in the market such as daily washing, monthly waxing, and whatnot but the stain marks, dirt, grime, etc. come back again and irritate you even more than before.
So you think about what else can be done. You look for a solution that will make your ride look elegant with little to no effort and that too for a long time. Something that can be applied once and be forgotten about for a few years.
So here’s the solution my friend – Ceramic Coating.
Ceramic coating is the magical potion that every car enthusiast has been talking about nowadays. Now let’s go further in detail.
What is Ceramic Coating?
Industry-grade ceramic coating is a polymer solution that is applied to the vehicle’s exterior to protect it from various external elements. Basically applied by hand, it blends with the painted surface of the vehicle and creates an extra hydrophobic layer of protection.
Due to this chemical bonding and the formation of a new layer, the vehicle’s original paint job remains unaffected.
While many believe ceramic coating to be an alternative to the clear bra (Paint Protection Film), ceramic coating is actually an alternative to waxing. The main objective of which is to prevent dust, dirt, and grime from sticking to the paint job and ruining the clear coat.
Ceramic coating is also called nano-ceramic coating and is a semi-permanent solution to your car’s appearance woes.
Due to its natural properties, it doesn’t break down in extreme atmospheric conditions such as rain or summer.
Ceramic Coating Advantages & Benefits
Protection from UV Rays
You very well know the damage harmful UV rays from the sun can cause to your vehicle. But ceramic coating protects your vehicle from oxidizing, fading, and dullness. And it’s even more important if you park your vehicle outside.
Protection from Chemical Stains
Chemical stains forming due to the acidic contaminants in the air are another potential harm to your ride. But ceramic coating stops these contaminants from forming on the paint. With air pollution on the rise every day, the ceramic coating provides a huge relief.
Ease of cleaning
With other types of protection mediums such as waxing or sealants, washing your vehicle can become a huge headache. But with ceramic coating, you don’t have to worry about the polymer wearing off due to washing.
Not only the ceramic coating blends with your car’s paint but also doesn’t let water stick to the surface. This means all the water-based dirt and grime will slide off the vehicle effortlessly.
Candy-like Gloss
This is something that almost all car owners love. Much like a car bra, the ceramic coating adds depth and gloss to your vehicle’s paint bringing the best out of the vehicle’s original finish.
All these benefits illustrate the power of ceramic coating, don’t they? Over the past few years, its popularity has grown like anything around the world. Both users and auto industry experts have been quite positive.
But still, there are plenty of myths and false information circulating around when it comes to this innovation. Let’s take a look at them in detail.
Things that Ceramic Coating can’t do
Protection from all degrees of Scratches and Swirl Marks
The ceramic coating does give good protection against minor levels of scratches and other mess but it doesn’t give protection against major scratches and damage from external elements. Despite its powerful blending properties, it still retains the characteristics of paint.
But no worries as you can give much more advanced protection to your ride’s surface with our Paint Protection Film.
Protection from Water Spotting
As mentioned before, the application of the ceramic coating on your vehicle will make water-based contaminants slide off from the surface but they contain natural particles that stay on the surface even after the water has evaporated.
The ceramic coating doesn’t get rid of the water spots that are produced and it will require a more hands-on approach.
Eliminate the need for a car wash
No matter whether you get your vehicle ceramic coated or not, a regular wash will always be required. A layer of the ceramic coating doesn’t give a superpower to vehicles to clean themselves. While we wish that a product like this will come in the future, for now, let’s just focus on the ceramic coating.

Is ceramic coating worth it?
In a word, yes. As we have just discussed, the ceramic coating has benefits that will add great value to the look of your ride. It makes the job of cleaning and keeping your ride that way a lot more tedious. It lets you enjoy your ride more than worrying about its appearance and protection.
But if you ask whether it’s a solution that will end all your ride’s woes, then it’s not. There’s not a single product that can do that and if it was we wouldn’t have been discussing ceramic coating.
Moreover, it’s not that costly as compared to yearly maintenance and waxing.
