Everywhere you turn, there’s a commercial for ceramic coatings and paint protection films. They sound great in the 30-second spot, but what do they do, and why do you need them?
What are Ceramic Coatings?
Ceramic coatings utilize nanotechnology, forming a fine, thin layer utterly invisible to the eye. When applied to a finish, these tiny particles seal all the pores, making them water-repellent. It also makes the finish resistant to UV, scratches, chemicals, extreme heat, and graffiti.
The ceramic layer acts as a transparent shield of protection for your vehicle’s paint.
