Benefits of a Nano Ceramic Coating

There is a good reason why the popularity of Nano Ceramic Coating is growing a lot. A lot of the benefits are simply unheard of in the automotive industry, but that said, there are also some minor precautions you need to be aware of.

Hydrophobic

Otherwise known as being very water repellent. An important feature of a Nano Ceramic Coating is that it is hydrophobic. This basically means that water will be repelled instantaneously. When your car is ceramic coated, the incredible hydrophobic effect of the coating will cause water to bead up and roll of the surface along with most dirt, grime, or mud (as it has all been unable to bond to your vehicle’s paint).  Any remaining dirt on the car can be removed with less effort. A lot less effort.

Protection from UV Damage / Oxidization / Rust. Vehicles that are often exposed to the sun will start seeing the paint fade and look dull. This is caused by the sun’s UV rays which causes oxidation. Ceramic Coating can dramatically reduce damage from UV rays.

Improved Durability

Ceramic coatings or nano coatings if you will, works much harder at protecting the surface of your vehicle than an ordinary paint job. The new coating bonds with the molecular structure of your car’s paint and can’t be dislodged by vibrations or external force, meaning it lasts years not months. As mentioned earlier in the article, think of it as an added layer of skin on top of your paint. How long does ceramic car coating last? Even a good DIY coating could last up to 3 years IF all proper procedures were carried out completely.

Small scratches can definitely be resisted but Not prevented by a Ceramic Coating and then it will certainly help against minor incidents that would otherwise mar your clear coat and or paint surface. For examples, driving through brush, small little knicks from bikes, kids playing, or animals jumping excitedly against the car.

A coating will heavily cut down on the amount of washing and maintenance but not completely eliminate the need for it. It will still require washing, just with a lot less effort and less frequency. Overall with a car coating, it’s going to be much easier. Additionally, it eliminates the need for waxing every few weeks, saving a lot of money over the course of the ceramic coatings lifetime.
