Knowing what applying ceramic coating to your car does or doesn’t offer is vital so you can decide. There are many benefits of having ceramic coating applied, but there are some myths we want to dispel. Here are the most common myths we want to correct so you understand better.
1. Ceramic Coating Makes It Impossible for Your Car to be Scratched
Unfortunately, this is not true. Severe contact and abrasions to the car may still cause damage to its appearance, so avoid this as much as possible. However, smaller stones and objects are less likely to cause tiny marks to your car when you have ceramic coating because it provides an extra layer of car protection. Please don’t believe that your car is now immune to any superficial damage because enough impact can make its way through any level of protection.
2. Ceramic Coating Will Cost a Fortune
Depending on your budget, there is a ceramic coating option for everybody. The ceramic coating doesn’t need to cost a fortune, and you have many choices when shopping at the Gtechniq site. You might also consider contacting our professionals to apply the highest coating standard, like the Crystal Serum Ultra, if you are unfamiliar with the process. Wallet-friendly options include the CO Aero Coat and the C1 Crystal Lacquer so that you won’t break the bank, but your car will still benefit.
3. Ceramic Coating Will Peel Off Easily
No, taking the ceramic coating off your car is pretty hard, which is excellent news because you don’t need to worry that it will naturally peel off easily. After a long time, you should reapply a new layer of ceramic coating because they have a set lifespan, but your detailer can advise you. If you want to remove the ceramic coating, we suggest you contact Gtechniq so our experts can do this professionally without risking damage to your car’s exterior.
4. Applying Ceramic Coating Means You’ll No Longer Need to Wash Your Car
We wish this were true; you’ll still need to wash your car regularly to maintain its appearance and free it of dirt. However, the ceramic coating application means your vehicle will be less likely to have stubborn marks on it because of the makeup of the coating. On top of this, washing your vehicle is much easier than before if the ceramic coating is applied to it. The hydrophobic nature of ceramic coating means dirt and superficial damage can slide off your car, not getting into the paintwork as it would before.
5. Every Type of Ceramic Coating is the Same
This isn’t true; many types of ceramic coating vary depending on price, application, and quality, for instance. The best standard of ceramic coatings might require a detailer’s application to ensure it is done correctly, but other types are more affordable. We advise you to shop the entire range at Gtechniq to find the ceramic coating that suits your car, budget, and needs.
