Ceramic coatings protect against environmental contaminants. It provides resistance to UV rays, preventing oxidation and fading over time. Ceramic coatings protect against staining, road salts, bird droppings, and tree sap. When installed, the coating creates a chemical-resistant surface, making it easier to clean. Ceramic coatings provide a high level of hydrophobic protection, allowing for water to bead up and roll off the surface, reducing the likelihood of water spots and mineral deposits forming on the paint – this is important in areas with hard water.
A ceramic coating can last anywhere from 6 months to a lifetime. The longevity of a ceramic coating largely depends on the quality of the product used, the application process, and the care taken to maintain it. A high-quality, layerable coating will last a few years with proper maintenance. Check our Ceramic Pro Packages to discover what is the best option for your car.
A high-quality coating matters significantly for a vehicle’s maintenance and overall appearance. Higher-quality coatings provide superior durability and forms a stronger, and more resilient bond with your vehicle’s paint. This creates a robust layer that can withstand environmental contaminants and UV rays far more effectively and for a longer period of time. Higher-quality coatings are also far more resistant to chemicals than cheaper and lower-quality coatings. This means that higher quality coatings ensure that your paint is truly protected from contaminants, long-term.
Professional-grade ceramic coatings, which are applied by experienced detailers, tend to last longer than consumer-grade products. Professional-grade products typically offer superior protection against environmental contaminants, and UV rays due to the higher concentration of certain ingredients in professional coatings. Professional coatings are engineered to be layerable, allowing for longer-lasting protection. On the other hand, DIY coatings offer less durability, often needing reapplication after a few months.
Maintenance is important in determining how long a ceramic coating will last. Regular maintenance using pH-neutral soaps, avoiding abrasive cleaning methods, and periodic maintenance with products designed to work with ceramic coatings can extend the life of the coating. With professional coatings, annual inspections are necessary to extending the longevity of your coating.
Using an aftercare soap, like Americana Global Ceramic Aftercare Soap, that has been formulated to work with professional-grade nano ceramic coatings. This soap in particular, is a pH-neutral formulation with aggressive surfactants that remove contaminants that settle on ceramic coatings, leaving behind a crisp and clean surface. This Ceramic Aftercare Soap allows the ceramic coating to maintain and showcase its hydrophobic and protective qualities.
After getting a Ceramic Pro installation, you should avoid:
Automatic car washes: The brushes can scratch the coating; always hand wash your car instead.
Harsh chemicals: Do not use abrasive cleaning products, waxes, or polishes that could damage the coating.
Letting water dry on the surface: This includes tap water, which can leave mineral spots; always dry your car thoroughly after washing.
Parking under trees: Bird droppings, sap, and pollen can damage the coating if left on for too long.
Abrasive cleaning methods: Avoid using rough sponges, dirty microfiber cloths, or aggressive drying techniques.
DIY detailing practices: Unless you are very experienced, avoid attempting to polish or wax your ceramic coated car yourself.
Not using dedicated car wash products: Use a pH-balanced car wash soap specifically designed for ceramic coatings.

Paint protection film, also known as clear bra, clear wrap, or paint shield, is a transparent yet resilient film applied seamlessly to your vehicle’s exterior. PPF effectively shields your car’s paint from a variety of hazards, including bird droppings, UV-ray exposure, bug splatters, as well as chips and scratches caused by road debris and rocks. The top layer of this urethane film features “self-healing” properties through elastomeric polymers, reverting to its pristine, pre-incident condition, even when scratched.
To better understand the price tag of PPF, we need to talk about what goes into the installation process. PPF installation requires thorough prep work in order to ensure that all dust and debris has been removed. This allows the film to properly adhere to the applied surface. Each piece of PPF is custom cut to fit each panel of your vehicle and provide maximum coverage. The quality of the film and the quality of the installation are what gives paint protection film a high price tag.
The more skilled the installation is, the longer your film will last. A highly skilled technician will likely wrap the edges of the film around each panel of your vehicle, providing a seamless appearance and longer lasting protection. When the edges are tucked, it reduces the likelihood that the film will lift.
Paint protection film protects your vehicle from scratches, rock chips, staining, corrosion, fading, chemicals, insects, and road debris. It helps keep your paint looking like new, saving you money and improving your resale value. A good quality PPF has self-healing properties that allow small scratches to disappear with the application of heat.
The Transformation of a Mercedes-Benz CLS63: Car Wrap, Ceramic Coating, and Wheels Powder Coating
Have you ever seen a car that looked completely different from what it was before? A vehicle that received a total makeover, turning it into a head-turner? This is what happened to a Mercedes-Benz CLS63 that went through a complete transformation at the shop. In this article, we will go through the steps of this transformation, which included a car wrap, ceramic coating, and wheels powder coating.
A car wrap is a vinyl covering that can be installed on top of the car's original paint to change its color and appearance. Ceramic coating is a liquid polymer that bonds with the car's paint, creating a protective layer against environmental contaminants. Wheels powder coating is a process that involves applying a dry powder to the wheels and baking them to create a durable and long-lasting finish.
The first step in the transformation of the Mercedes-Benz CLS63 was a full color change. The original color of the car was black, but the owner wanted a different look. The shop installed a matte metallic blue wrap that completely changed the car's appearance. The wrap was installed by a team of professionals who ensured that every inch of the car was covered, leaving no bubbles or creases.
To complement the new color of the car, the shop repainted the calipers in the same blue color. This was done to create a uniform look and enhance the overall appearance of the car. The red calipers were sanded down and cleaned before the paint was applied to ensure that the paint would adhere properly and last a long time.
The final step in the transformation of the Mercedes-Benz CLS63 was wheels powder coating. The shop chose to powder coat the wheels in a glossy black finish to contrast with the matte blue wrap. This process involved sandblasting the wheels to remove any old paint or debris, applying a powder coating, and then baking the wheels to cure the finish. The result was a set of wheels that looked brand new and enhanced the overall appearance of the car.
The transformation of the Mercedes-Benz CLS63 was a complete success. The car received a new look that turned it into a head-turner. The car wrap, ceramic coating, and wheels powder coating were essential in achieving this transformation. These processes not only changed the car's appearance but also protected it from environmental contaminants and ensured the durability of the finish.

Can I change the color of my calipers?
Yes, you can change the color of your calipers by repainting them. However, it is important to ensure that the paint is heat resistant and durable to avoid peeling or chipping.
How much does it cost to transform a car with car wrap, ceramic coating, and wheels powder coating?
The cost of transforming a car with car wrap, ceramic coating, and wheels powder coating varies depending on the make and model of the car, as well as the complexity of the job. It is recommended to get a quote from a professional shop before starting the job.
