Ceramic Coating Melbourne

Ceramic coating is the highest grade of chemical polymer solution in today's market and is used to provide a protective outer layer to the exterior of a vehicle. It is applied mainly by using the bare hand, which helps blend into our car's paint, thus creating an additional aquaphobic layer of protection from external paint damage.

Ceramic coating is necessary for our cars to get protection over the long run. The exterior of the vehicle receives a permanent candy-gloss shine and is also protected from light. It is a requirement to avail professional help for applying ceramic coating correctly, rather than attempting to do it by oneself.

Coatings are very much unlike the typical waxes and sealants which are used on the exterior of vehicles. They are like films and can only form an extra layer on the surface of the car. That is why proper ceramic coatings are required to be used to create a semi-permanent protective barrier that bonds (nano bonds) with our vehicle surface, providing protection worth years when compared to wax or sealant, which only lasts for a few months only.

As mentioned above, we know now that ceramic coatings are an excellent solution for protecting our vehicles' exterior parts, which stays exposed to possible harm or damages.

Why are some ceramic coatings costly?
The cost would vary owing to the vehicle condition and size, the quality of ceramic coating one buys, and a reputable dealer needs to be taken into account. Considering all these factors, we can assume the figure is somewhere around $1500 to $5750. The ceramic coating cost for average well-used cars would be around $2500, whereas a brand new car would cost about $2000.

A price higher than that would indicate using a more premium coating product, having a larger vehicle, and dealing with more severe paint correction work required.
More and more people are turning to ceramic-coating for the well being of their vehicles as recommended by professionals too, thus replacing car wax for several reasons. The process of car waxing is time-consuming and needs to be re-applied every two to three washes. Car waxing can leave residue on the car's surface, thus making it difficult to keep clean.

With Ceramic coating, we can easily wipe clean and protect the paint from contaminants for several years. Below are some products recommended for the best ceramic coating:

1.  Alpha Glass guard Rain Repellent 60mL
2.  9h Bodyguard Ceramic
3. Ceramic Queen professional and premium DIY Ceramic maintenance coating

A nano ceramic coating is truly a mind-boggling paint protection solution for cars. It is a polymer-based solution consisting of the revolutionary liquid SiO2, infusing nanotechnology to cover the microscopic imperfections found on porous surfaces like glass, etc.

What does ceramic coating do for cars?

Protection Against Environmental Damage: Ceramic coatings create a transparent, long-lasting layer over your car's paint that acts as an extra barrier against harmful environmental elements, such as dirt, grime, bird droppings, tree sap, and UV rays. This added protection helps to prevent oxidation, fading, and paint damage caused by exposure to the elements.

Enhanced Gloss and Shine: Ceramic coatings provide unparalleled gloss and shine with professional enhancement. Plus, ceramic coating can give your car a showroom-worthy finish. The coating enhances the depth and clarity of your paintwork, making colours appear more vibrant and reflective.

Hydrophobic Properties: Ceramic coatings exhibit hydrophobic properties, repelling water and other liquids. This results in water beading off the surface of your car, making it easier to clean and reducing the likelihood of water spots and mineral deposits.

Ease Maintenance:  Ceramic-coated cars are easier to clean and maintain thanks to their hydrophobic properties. Dirt, dust, and contaminants are less likely to adhere to the surface, allowing quicker and more efficient washing routines.

 

4 easy steps for (DIY: do it yourself) Ceramic Coating Process

It is essential to know that things need to be done before a vehicle is ceramic coated. Here are they:

STEP 1: wash your car

It might seem obvious, but your car needs to wash appropriately and clean before applying the ceramic coating for the chemical to gain a maximum bond with your vehicle paint. It also guarantees your vehicle looks stunning under the ceramic coat. 

STEP 2: Mechanical Decontamination / Clay Bar Treatment

After step 1, you need to clay bar treatment your vehicle paintwork. It sounds scary, but rest assured, clay bar/decontamination treatment your vehicle paintwork is not as complicated as what you think and not as dangerous as it sounds.

Using a clay bar to clear the tiny bit of unpleasant substance or dirt from your vehicle paintwork can be highly satisfying as long as you have the correct lubricant for the clay bar.
Clay bar treatment plays a significant role in getting your ceramic coating to bond.

STEP 3: Paint Correction

After step 2, your vehicle paint surface is blemish-free; paint correction is essential to get your paint as shiny as possible. You have to remove the water spots, swirl marks, and other imperfections from your vehicle paintwork. Please do not think that Ceramic coating will do all this for you without polishing with the correct tools and compound.

This step is the most crucial phase in the ceramic coating, and You need to be very careful during this phase.

STEP 4: Car Surface Coating

Your vehicle painted surface needs to do another final wash to remove all the compound or wax left after polishing. This last step is the easiest and the most satisfying process.

Applying a D.I.Y. ceramic coating is as simple as using the Ceramic Coat applicator cloth (suede) and pad.

Working on a small area, wiping it onto your car section by section, let it sit for a few minutes to set; once the coating starts to evaporate, the painted surface will begin to smear, a.k.a flashing and then wipe it off with a clean new microfiber cloth.

Let the product cure. Usually, it is about 8-24 hours (depending on the product) in a covered area, and
Congratulations! you have just done ceramic coating your car.

Unlocking the Mystery: Why Are Ceramic Coatings Priced High?

 

Have you ever wondered why professional ceramic coatings are expensive in Australia? Let's dive into the fascinating world of car care to discover the secrets behind this seemingly grand expense.

 

The Application Process:

Applying a professional-grade ceramic coating isn't a simple task; it's a meticulous procedure that involves multiple steps and top-quality materials. Before considering the coating, professional applicators clean, decontaminate, and prepare the paint finish to ensure optimal adhesion. Then comes the layering process, where several coats of high-quality ceramic coating are delicately applied to create a robust protective barrier. And that's not all – additional steps may be required for paint correction or rejuvenation for older or demo cars, adding to the complexity and cost of the process.

Mastering the Process:

Applying a professional-grade ceramic coating isn't just a matter of following instructions on a bottle. It requires skill, experience, and precision. While consumer-grade products that claim to be "easy to apply" may be available, they often sacrifice durability for convenience. On the other hand, professional applicators take the time to perfect their craft, ensuring that every coat of ceramic coating is applied flawlessly. And let's not forget the importance of having a suitable facility – a dedicated space equipped with the tools and equipment needed to achieve optimal results.

 

But why does all this matter? Because when it comes to protecting your prized possession – your car – there's no room for compromise. A professionally applied ceramic coating enhances your vehicle's appearance and provides long-lasting protection against the elements. So, while the price may seem steep at first glance, it's a small investment for the peace of mind that comes with knowing your car is shielded from harm.
