A premium advantage of Ceramic Coatings is its hydrophobic properties, which means that it creates a surface that repels water. This means that mud and grime will have a more difficult time bonding with the vehicle’s paint; and when the car is washed contaminants come off more easily.
Unlike a traditional wax or sealant, a Ceramic Coating does not wash away or break down and does not require repeated application every few months. After one application, your vehicle experiences all of these benefits guaranteed for a Lifetime! A Ceramic Coating does all of this with just one application!
The ultra smooth surface that a Ceramic Coating creates enhances the reflective properties of your car’s paint. The result is that your car will really pop with gloss and shine. Especially after a fresh wash, your car’s paint will have that beautiful just-been-waxed kind of look, without having to spend time applying wax!
The Pencil Hardness Scale is used to compare the relative scratch resistance of various coatings. Professional Coatings go through vigorous independent testing prior to being offered for sale. Multiple Ceramic Coatings have a 9H rating and these now form the entry level of Quality Ceramic Coatings. There are several products that are at the pinnacle of durability, and wear the 10H label. And YES all Pro grade 10H Ceramic Coatings are available at Adelaide Paint Protection!
A Ceramic Coating is about 100 times thicker than a traditional wax. That means it provides substantially more protection than a normal sealant. The chemically resistant surface helps mitigate stains and etching caused by environmental contaminants like bird-droppings or bug-splatter. After applying a Ceramic Coating, it is still important to remove naturally acidic contaminants from your paint as quickly as possible. However, your layer of Ceramic Coating will minimise damage and help protect the factory paint and clear coat underneath.
In addition to adding protective qualities to the paint, our Ceramic Coatings improve the paint’s appearance by enhancing its reflective properties. This increases the depth and clarity of the paint.

The self-healing technology describes the ability to return to its original form after washing marks, swirl marks, or other light scratches are introduced into the surface of the Coating.
In our testing of four Self Healing Ceramic Coatings, NONE of the coatings were able to ‘self heal’ as stated. Consequently you won’t find any of these products offered at our sites.
In short in our opinion, Self Healing Ceramic Coatings are a myth.
In order for us to spend a sufficient amount of time preparing your vehicle’s paint and applying the coating(s), you will need to leave your vehicle with us for at least one day for protector coatings, and multiple days for Pro Ceramic Coatings.
Please contact us and we will determine the length of time needed for your specific vehicle.
