CERAMIC PROTECTION

Protect it. Keep it cleaner. Wash it easier.

Ceramic protection adds lasting gloss and hydrophobic behavior while making routine vehicle care easier. Water, dirt and road grime release more readily, helping the vehicle stay cleaner-looking between washes.

Ceramic protection does not eliminate washing. Cleanliness between washes depends on mileage, weather, storage, road conditions and use.

Actual longevity depends on mileage, storage, environmental exposure, wash methods and maintenance. Vehicles with heavy oxidation, severe swirling, deep scratches or other significant paint defects may need additional preparation or a 2-Step Paint Enhancement before coating.

PREPARATION MATTERS

What the package includes

Every coating option includes the preparation needed for that package: a thorough wash, chemical decontamination, mechanical decontamination as needed, surface and panel preparation, coating application, final inspection and aftercare guidance.

A coating-preparation polish cleans and refines the surface for adhesion. A full Paint Enhancement is a separate, more involved service unless specifically included in a package.

REALISTIC EXPECTATIONS

Protection, not a force field

Ceramic protection does not make paint scratch-proof, chip-proof or completely immune to water spotting. Washing and proper maintenance remain important.

WASHING

Hand washing is best

Hand washing helps maintain appearance and longevity. Brush-style automatic washes can still cause mechanical marring.

AFTERCARE

Give the coating time

Avoid washing for about seven days after application. Use suitable pH-balanced automotive wash products and remove bird droppings, sap and bug residue carefully.
