If you've recently purchased a new car, ceramic coating offers a way to keep the vehicle looking showroom-ready. Applied by hand by an auto detail professional, the coating is a liquid polymer that bonds to the paint. Find out more about the benefits of this modern alternative to wax below.

Why You Should Invest in Ceramic Coating

1. Protect the Paint

Ceramic coating adheres to paint and provides an additional layer of protection. Because the bond is either permanent or semi-permanent, it cannot be sprayed off in a car wash. The coating safeguards the vehicle's paint from sun exposure, oxidation, and caustic substances like salt, bird droppings, and vehicle fluid spills.

2. Add Value

With ceramic coating, you preserve the exterior quality of your new car. The protection it offers will also minimize or eliminate the need to have minor cosmetic blemishes removed. The coating will make your car look like it just came off the assembly line even years after purchase, allowing your vehicle to maintains its value in the long run.

3. Keep a Car Clean

Made of hydrophobic materials, ceramic coatings naturally repel water. Rain, mud, and other wet, potentially damaging grime will slip off the vehicle. At a car wash, the vehicle can be cleaned and polished with remarkably little effort.

4. It Lasts Longer Than Wax

With its strong binding properties, ceramic coating will not wear away when exposed to the elements. In general, it will last anywhere from two to three years after the initial application. Compare that to wax, which needs to be reapplied every four to six weeks.
