Ceramic Coatings Made Simple: Best Step-by-Step Guide in 2019

Ceramic Coating on Supra

You love your car, and you want to keep it looking its sleek, shiny best.

But despite your best efforts at washing, waxing and buffing, your car’s paint looks dull, stained and dingy.

What if you could keep your car gleaming with that freshly polished look for up to two years? What if you could do that while protecting your car against sun damage, grime and dust?

That’s what ceramic car coatings can do.

A pro ceramic coating:

  • Leaves your car gleaming for months.
  • Protects your car from the sun and harsh chemicals.
  • Works on your car’s paint, glass, windshield and rims.
  • Needs only one application.

What Is a Ceramic Coating for Cars?

A ceramic paint coating is a liquid polymer that you apply to your car the same way you apply a wax or polish. The polymer bonds with the chemicals in your car’s exterior paint to create a hard, glossy coating.

The coating forms a seal that protects your car’s finish from dust, grime, rain, chemicals, the sun, and other damaging elements.

How Does It Work?

It’s sometimes called nano-ceramic coatings because it uses nanotechnology to bond with your car’s paint.

The main component is silicon dioxide, which is similar in composition to liquid quartz or glass. Nanotechnology causes CQuartz to bond in gaps, pores, holes, and scratches in any surface including glass, metal, fiberglass, and vinyl.

Unlike wax or polish, it does not break down, wash away or need repeated applications.

Is Ceramic Coating for Cars Easy to Apply?

It’s not complicated, but it does require several steps. You can apply it yourself or ask for it at an auto body shop. Here are the basic steps:

  • Prep the finish by washing and waxing.
  • Work in small sections to apply the coating.
  • Apply the ceramic with a sponge.
  • Allow the ceramic to start drying. After a few minutes, it will develop a cloudy appearance. Use a microfiber cloth to buff this cloudy surface away.
  • Allow the coating to dry for 48 hours.

Don’t confuse a true ceramic coating for cars with the various spray-on coatings, ceramic sprays or other products you might see in the auto body shop. Use only a true CQuartz ceramic product.

What Are the Benefits of Pro Ceramic Coating?

UV Rays & Oxidation Protection

Exposure to ultraviolet (UV) light causes your car’s finish to start breaking down. This results in a faded, uneven and dull-looking surface. Ceramic is a strong protection against UV rays.

Lasting Shine and Protection

The results of the ceramic application will last one to 10+ years if maintained properly. A car parked outside all year and that received not proper care like regular hand-washes and yearly decontamination details will result in any automotive ceramic coating to drastically reduce its durability.

Water Protection

With a ceramic coat, water slides off your car’s finish. That means dirt, chemical toxins, and grease slide off with it. It’s easy to keep your car clean and shiny.

Get Lasting Beauty

If you have an old car, a ceramic coating will make it look new again. If you have a new car, you’ll keep that showroom finish for a long time. Get lasting beauty with a pro ceramic coating.
