What is Ceramic Coating?
Industry-grade ceramic coating is a chemical polymer solution that is applied to the exterior of a vehicle to protect it from external paint damage. Typically applied by hand, it blends with your car’s paint and creates an additional hydrophobic layer of protection.
Due to this chemical bonding and the creation of a new layer, the car’s factory paint job remains untouched.
The main idea is to prevent dirt, grime, and stain marks from appearing on the paint job and ruining the clear coat.
External Ceramic Coating, also sometimes called nano-ceramic coating, is a permanent or semi-permanent solution to your worries depending upon the coating and type of polymer used. Due to its chemically intrinsic properties, it does not break down in normal atmospheric conditions like rain or summer.
Ceramic Coating Advantages & Benefits
Take anything that contains chemical compounds and you are looking at a resilient solution. The same goes for ceramic coating, which is both permanent and easier to clean once applied. Other than the obvious, here are a few more reasons to apply it in your car:
Protection from Harmful UV Rays
You can only imagine the damage that the sun’s harmful UV rays can do to your car’s paint job. Ceramic coating will protect your car’s paint from oxidizing, preventing it from fading and wearing a dull look. This is critical if you park your car outside.
Protection from Chemical Stains
Chemical stains arising from acidic contaminants in the air are another potential damage to your car. A coating will prevent these contaminants from bonding to the paint. With the air pollution rate only rising in the city, ceramic coating can be a huge relief.
Hydrophobic Nature, Ease of Cleaning
When it comes to waxing and other types of detailing, washing your car becomes a headache. With ceramic coating, you don’t have to worry about the polymer wearing off. (Incidentally, removing it completely requires another process involving polishing and wet-sanding.)
Not only does it blend with your car’s paint but also repels water. This means that all water-based dirt and grime will bead on the surface and eventually slide off. A quick jet wash afterward and you have yourself a spotless, ageless car.
Candy-Like Gloss
This is where the aesthetics all car owners will love. The ceramic coating also glosses and depth into your car’s paint. It will give your car a glossy look, bringing the best out of the original paint job.
All of these benefits have revealed the truth about ceramic coating, haven’t they? Over the past few years, its popularity has only risen in and around the Houston area. Reviews from both users and auto industry experts have been extremely positive.
Interior Ceramic Coating
An often overlooked aspect of maintaining your car is caring for the interior surfaces. You may not be able to buff plastic, fabrics, or leather to a glossy sheen, but you’ll be spending most of your time inside the car so it pays off to have a clean and well-maintained interior. One of the best options for protecting your car’s interior is a professional protective coating, and Ceramic Pro offers some of the best professional coatings around.
Ceramic interior coatings are hydrophobic, creating a protective layer that repels liquids and resists stains. In addition, they offer several formulations suitable for different interior surfaces.
Plastic surfaces are often found on your dashboard where they are particularly susceptible to damage from the sun. If you’ve ever seen a plastic dashboard that’s regularly left exposed to the sun, then you know how it starts to look awful after a while. Plastic also has the habit of collecting dirt and dust in difficult-to-reach places. In addition, scratches on your car’s plastic surface impact its appearance. The ceramic interior coating protects from dirt buildup, water damage, and UV damage. It also provides increased scuff and scratch resistance.
Fabric can be very difficult to clean and the best strategy is to not let it get dirty in the first place. The ceramic interior fabric coating protects your car’s fabric from liquids, causing them to bead and roll off instead of penetrating the fabric and causing hard-to-remove stains.
Leather doesn’t come cheap but it will last a long time, provided you take care of it. An interior protective coating is the best way to keep your leather from drying out and cracking. The ceramic coating protects your leather from water, stains, scuffs, and UV damage from sun exposure.
