CERAMIC COATING MYTH AND FACTS
Hey there, car enthusiast!
Whether you’re teaming up with The Detail Buff for your ceramic coating needs or exploring other avenues, we’re here to share some insider tips to help guide your journey to the perfect shine and protection for your ride. After all, it’s all about making informed choices and finding the best match for you and your vehicle. Let’s dive into what makes ceramic coating a game-changer and how you can select the ideal service to keep your car looking its best.
DON’T BE FOOLED
We’ve noticed some “detailers” and dealerships out there might be promising the moon and stars with ceramic coatings, like saying they’re scratch proof or pitching a ceramic spray as the real deal. We’re all about keeping it real and making sure you know exactly what you’re getting.
KNOW WHAT TO LOOK FOR AND ASK
First off, always check that whoever’s working on your ride is insured especially if they are putting a polisher to your vehicle which should automatically be prep work for a coating (they could be inexperienced)—that way, if things don’t go as planned when they have your vehicle in their care, their insurance has got the mishaps covered.
BIGGEST MYTH WE HEAR
Here’s the scoop: no ceramic coating out on the market is scratch proof. They’re scratch resistant, which means they’re great at protecting against minor micro-marring, but they’re not an invincible shield.
What these coatings do is add a tough layer on top of your car’s clear coat, making it more resistant to scratches and helping keep your paint looking fresh. But, like all good things, they have their limits. So, while they dial down the risk of surface damage to your paint beneath, it’s not a total goodbye to scratches. It’s more about giving your car some extra armor against the rough and tumble of the road.
CERAMIC COATINGS DO LAST LONGER
Imagine giving your car a superhero cape. Not the kind that flaps in the wind, but an invisible shield that battles rain, dirt, and sun from wrecking havoc directly on your clearcoat and paint. It’s like adding a new first line of defense that protects your paint from the daily elemental beating all of our cars have to battle. Think of it as your car’s personal bodyguard against the elements, one that doesn’t clock out after a few months. Where wax and sealants wave the white flag after a few months, a premium ceramic coating stands tall, offering years—yes, years—of unwavering protection. Are you ready to boost your car’s armor to superhero levels?
CERAMIC COATING AND WATER
Imagine a shield that makes your car almost afraid of water. That’s what a ceramic coating does – it’s like giving your car a superpower against moisture. Water droplets? They’ll just bead up and sit there, not daring to mess with your paint. Here’s the catch though, while most of this water beading will just roll off your car- gravity’s still in the game. So, those fearless little beads on flat surfaces won’t slide off on their own. You’ll need to give them a nudge, either with a gentle blast of air or a soft hug with a microfiber towel. Keep that in mind, and your car will not only thank you, but it’ll also shine like it means it.
CERAMIC COATING AND CHEMICALS
Think of a ceramic coating as your car’s best friend, ready to jump in front of those nasty bird droppings, harsh cleaners, and accidental gasoline spills. It’s like giving your car a brand new first line of defense, instead of letting your cars clearcoat do this job. As a result of using a coating as your front lines of defense it will take the beating and protect your paint job underneath and keep it looking fresh and vibrant, free from the fear of fading or peeling. Let’s keep your ride looking its best, together.
CERAMIC COATING AND UV RAYS
Just like sunscreen protects your skin, a good UV coating shields your car from the sun’s harsh rays. It’s like giving your car a little extra love to keep it looking its best, warding off oxidation that can cause fading and rusting. Let’s keep your ride looking as young as you feel!
CERAMIC COATING PREP WORK
At The Detail Buff, we’re all about that brand-new car glow. Our ceramic coating is like a translucent, second-skin shield that keeps your paint job looking glossy and fresh beneath it. But here’s the secret: the sparkle doesn’t just magically happen. It’s all about the prep work. Think of faded paint, haze, or swirl marks as the villains. Without a proper showdown (aka our 1 stage or 2 stage paint correction), they’ll still lurk underneath that shiny new coat. That’s why we insist on doing the groundwork first. So, let’s team up to keep your car shining like new, longer.
CERAMIC COATING DOES NOT ELIMINATE CAR WASHING
Imagine a world where your car repels dirt and grime, almost like it’s magic. That’s the power of a properly installed ceramic coating. It’s like giving your car a shield, making it tougher for the messy stuff to cling on. As a result, yes, your car will still need a bath, but not as often. Furthermore, when you do wash it, it’ll be a breeze—no elbow grease required.
However, just a heads up: stick to touchless car washes to keep that protective magic intact, or alternatively, book us for an exterior maintenance. Why is this important? Because regular car washes can be a bit too rough on your ceramic coating. In fact, they can be as harsh on your coating as they were on your original unprotected clearcoat. Therefore, we really don’t want to see your guarantee vanish into thin air.
But don’t worry; we’ve got your back when it comes to keeping your ride looking fresh. In fact, we’ll show you the ropes on how to properly wash your car at home when you come to pick it up. Additionally, if you ever have any questions, just give us a shout. We’re here to help, always.
