For most of us, your car’s bodywork is just as important as maintaining the engine and the tyres of their vehicle. It’s easy to understand why. A car with good bodywork and a stunning, high-gloss sheen will turn heads for all the right reasons, not to mention that well-maintained bodywork will save you money in the long run.

It’s easy to fall into the habit of washing your car every Sunday and applying a coat of wax as a finishing touch. However, when you combine your efforts over time and consider daily pollutants such as rain, dirt, grease and even bird droppings, it can often feel like you’re losing a constant battle.

So, why not consider making the switch from wax to ceramic coating? It’s a proven way to maintain your cars’ paint job and it’s cost-effective. Want to know more? Read on for more information.

Cleaning is much easier!

Of course, you’ll still get to enjoy cleaning your vehicle on the driveway. But when you use ceramic coating, it makes it so much easier. Thanks to the water-resistant properties of the protective layer, any water droplets will bead on the surface of the paintwork rather than pooling and running over your vehicle. So, when you’re washing your vehicle all those nasty streaks and contaminants will be much easier to get rid of. The easier your car is to clean, the less strain on your paintwork.

No more fading or rust worries

No matter how religiously you wash and wax your car, over time it’s going to fade. This is due to the powerful UV rays produced by the sun, which will oxidize the paint making it appear dull and severely faded. This oxidization can also result in rusting, something which never looks good on your car. When you choose to take care of your paint job with ceramic coating, you’re adding an additional layer of protection onto your vehicle which will reduce the likelihood of rusting and keep your paint looking vibrant and bright for years to come.

Say no to scratches

Surface scratches and scrapes on your paintwork are enough to ruin your day. And having them removed can be costly and time-consuming. Ever heard the term, prevention is better than cure? Well, when you switch to ceramic coating, you can prevent these scratches from happening in the first place. A professionally or DIY applied ceramic coating adds a protective layer to your vehicle which actively repels scratches and prevents them from penetrating through to your paintwork.

Your paintwork is in the hands of the experts

Unlike a wax coat that can be applied unevenly, a ceramic coating is often done professionally, which means that your paintwork is in the hands of the experts. Who can take care of your paint job better than a fully qualified and experienced technician? There is also the option to buy it and apply it for yourself if you feel confident enough to do so – make sure you do your research first.

And finally, it looks incredible

Of course, when you invest in good bodywork and paint job protection, it’s going to show. When you switch to ceramic coating, you’ll notice a huge difference in the shine, gloss and the finish of your vehicle.
