Ceramic Paint Protection

Ceramic Paint Protection  – The Ultimate Paint In Vehicle Paint Protection

Ceramic coatings are the ultimate in vehicle paintwork protection technology available compared to traditional waxes and sealants.

Ceramic and other coatings, are superior to traditional wax and sealants in terms of durability and longevity.

The chemistry technology of coatings is inorganic, Ceramic-based coatings are commonly SiO2 or Silicon Dioxide based. The coating formula bonds to the paintwork molecules to create a semi-permanent layer protecting the original paint surface and improving the hardness of the paint. This is 2H to 10H on the pencil hardness scale for all coatings currently on market.

The latest coatings offer 1 to 9 years of longevity from just a single layer of coating. It has been found that multiple layers may become too brittle and what’s actually more beneficial is flexibility.

A coating layer cannot be washed off. So it offers good chemical resistance from detergents and other life problems like bird poo.

In fact, in order for a coating to be removed, it requires at minimum to be polished or even sanded off, in the case of top-end, hard, professional coatings such as GTECHNIQ Crystal Serum Ultra, FEYNLAB Self Heal, Angelwax Enigma Genesis, etc.

Paint protection coatings offer: 

  • Scratch resistance – not scratch-proof! – it minimizes micro-scratches and swirls due
    • This depends on the formula being applied to physical hardness, film thickness, and then the aftercare
  • Chemical Resistance – Protects against chemical attacks like bird poo as well as alkaline cleaners, degreasers, and harsh detergents staining the paint.
  • UV Resistance – protects from the sun damaging UV rays from  fading paint
  • Anti Static and Self-cleaning – lower cleaning costs and time
  • Guarantees – not to delaminate or yellow

There are many ceramic coating brands and products available. They all offer the same features but differ in the performance of these features.

Ceramic coatings are also known as Nano, Glass, or Crystal coatings from a variety of manufacturers, these usually indicate the chemical formula and resin base used. There are also Graphene (we currently offer) and Nanodiamond based coatings coming to market.

Ceramic coating prices will be different between new and used cars. Used cars would vary greatly with the preparation required before a coating can be applied.

The least cost combination of preparation and coating is a Decon wash and for example NASIOL 1-year ceramic coating for R1600 on a standard sedan e.g. Corolla,  to as much as R25000 for the ultimate self-healing ceramic coating from FEYNLAB on for a large Range Rover requiring a full multi-step/day correction.

In short, every vehicle will need different preparation in terms of polishing & detailing (i.e.  has swirls and scratches, etc ) before applying a coating, and then your choice of coating together will determine the cost price and
