what is ceramic coating

Ceramic coating is a type of clear semi-permanent auto body protection made of silicon dioxide. It is a nanoscopic paint treatment that is applied in liquid form, but cures to form a hard layer over the vehicles paint. Ceramic coating provides a strong, protective surface on the cars body that works to block all foreign matter from causing damage to the car. It can withstand a significant amount of damage without showing any visible effects on the car, such as fading, oxidation, and chemical staining. Ceramic coating can also protect the car from harmful UV rays, which can lead to oxidation. It creates a tough bond with the surface of the vehicle, so it doesnt need to be applied as often as car wax. A complete detailing job followed by a professionally applied ceramic coating may cost $2,500, but the protection should last for at least a few years.
