Once the ceramic coatings are cured, it is measured to have hardness above 9H. A normal clear coat has a hardness between 2H and 4H. This dramatic increase in hardness makes ceramic the hardest paint coating on the market today. The ceramic coating acts as a sacrificial layer or glass shield that helps prevent minor scratches to your clear coat. This preserves the original factory paint and protects your investment.

Any surface scratches that occur in the coating are easily removed with light polishing and will not weaken the integrity of the original clear coat. Your paint will not fade or age with the UV protection within the ceramic coating. Think of ceramic coatings as an additional clear coat layer, only a lot harder. This level of protection allows for more peace of mind and a fuller enjoyment of your vehicle, even in harsh environments.

This nano technology allows ceramic nanoparticles to fill the smallest pores in the paint, which makes the ceramic coating extremely slick and hydrophobic. Ceramic coatings dramatically lower the surface tension, preventing environmental contaminants from bonding to the surface. Water easily removes dirt from the surface by encapsulating it while rolling off the surface. This is called the self-cleaning effect.

Ceramic coatings are a one-time application that will give you years and years of amazing protection if properly maintained. Once the ceramic coating glass shield has cured it can only be removed through abrasion, such as polishing. This puts ceramic coatings in a category by itself, compared to sealants or waxes that degrades very quickly in our extreme climate.
