Automotive Elegance specializes in installing high-quality and long-lasting ceramic coatings on vehicles of all types. Ceramic coatings are in demand for good reason; they can help to keep your vehicle’s exterior safe from harsh UV rays, improve the shine of your vehicle’s original paint, and provide significant protection against water stains, insect acids, oxidation, corrosion, and road grime, to name a few. Explore all that a ceramic coating at Automotive Elegance can do for you below.
What Is a Ceramic Coating?
The exterior of your car may be protected against contaminants by applying a coating, which is a liquid polymer that forms a hydrophobic (water-repelling) and oleophobic (oil-repelling) surface. This prevents dirt, grime, and other debris from adhering to the paint. Because of the way it repels water, you’ll spend less time and effort trying to keep your car clean, which will save you money on things like washing and detailing.
Benefits of Ceramic Coatings
Improve Your Vehicle’s Finish
Depending on your personal driving habits, the type of vehicle you own, and the color of your vehicle, your car’s paint can depreciate over time. With a coating on your vehicle, the appearance of your car’s original paint can drastically improve. They produce a showroom-like shine when applied to a vehicle’s surface, which not only makes it look better but also helps to prolong the life of the original paint.
Protect Against the Elements
The paint on a vehicle can fade over time due the UV exposure to the sun’s rays. A ceramic coating on your car acts as a protective barrier between your vehicle’s exterior and the sun, working to maintain its superior paint quality for many years after installation.
Easier Car Cleaning
With a ceramic coating on your vehicle, it is easier than ever to wash or detail your car. Because of the coating’s slick surface and water-beading properties, it repels inconvenient contaminants, dirt, and grime from building up on your car. What’s more, they aren’t just for the exterior of your vehicle. There are many ceramic detailing products available that you can also apply to your car’s upholstery, plastic trims, wheels, calipers, and even glass. All these auto detailing options and more are available at Automotive Elegance in Andover, MA.
