What Is A Ceramic Coating?
Because we are detailers we tend to get into the nitty gritty of what a ceramic coating is, why it’s the 8th wonder of our Fort Myers detailing business but we don’t want to bore you!
Ceramic coatings are like a thick winter coat you put on your kids in the winter. It’s a hyper durable and extremely hard layer of silicon dioxide (glass) that cures to the paint, glass, and other surfaces on the the exterior of your vehicle.
Not only do they give a rich, glossy appearance to the car paint that is absolutely unmatched, but a nano ceramic coating is designed to last somewhere from 3 to 8+ years depending on the coating you choose. Ceramic coatings have 2 jobs:
-
Long Term Paint Correction
-
Beautiful Shine & Gloss
Why Should You Get A Ceramic Coating?
While waxes and sealants are a great option to protect your vehicle with, they will never be able to protect your vehicle like a ceramic coating can. Instead of waxing your vehicle every 3 to 6 months you could protect your vehicle for 3 to 8 years!
Here are the most important benefits of ceramic coatings:
-
Durable protection for years
-
Ultra Hydrophobic properties that keeps your car cleaner for longer while making it easier to clean at the same time
-
Provides a deep gloss that a wax or sealant can't
-
Only takes one application unlike waxes which has to be reapplied every 3 to 6 months
In order for the ceramic coating to perform the best it is mandatory to do properly prep the paint before application. This means we must correct the paint to a certain degree to make sure the ceramic coating will properly bond to the paint.
