Do you want to get your exterior looking brand new and shiny again? Do you want something that will work longer than traditional waxes and sealants? You may require a ceramic coating. There are a ton of benefits with this kind of service that range from water-repelling, chemical resistant, to heat resistant which is a big deal in Florida!
Wax
Waxes give a great showroom look to your vehicle and can be great if you plan on keeping your car somewhere with minimal elements. Unfortunately, waxes are known to come off in the scorching sun. They can melt off and become ineffective in a matter of days.
Sealants
Sealants tend to be the better, longer-lasting choice over wax. As we have discussed previously, sealants can be a better choice over wax because they will stay on longer and not melt off from the sun. As well as being resistant to water, sealants can stay on your car’s surface for up to 4 to 6 months. The only downside of them is that they can start to come off with washing.
Resistance to the elements
Another benefit of ceramic coatings is water resistance. Mud and grime will not be able to stick to your car as easily when you have a layer of water resistance, also making the cleaning of the car easier in the future.
The high-density ceramic layer is resistant to chemicals ranging from pH2-pH12. Some examples of naturally acidic contaminants would be water stains, bird droppings, and tree sap. Having a chemical resistant surface will make keeping your car at its best much easier.
Your traditional waxes and sealants will break down much quicker in the hotter elements especially here in Florida. Ceramic coatings have a heat resistance like no other with certain coatings resisting heat up to 482ºF!
