Elevate Your vehicle with a hydrophobic Ceramic Coating
When looking for the top choice in keeping your vehicle shiny, glossy, and contamination-free, choose a ceramic coating from Splash Hand Car Wash! When you book a ceramic coating with us, the results are exceptional. We hand apply a liquid polymer to your vehicle’s exterior surfaces, evenly spreading it over the surface of your vehicle. This ceramic coating formula develops a bond with the paint and other applicable surfaces, curing to form a glossy, hydrophobic surface layer. This layer is long-lasting and extremely easy to clean when the time comes. A ceramic coating is perfect for those who want their vehicle to have a mirror-like finish and much less daily or weekly maintenance needs.

MAINTENANCE IS LESS FREQUENT AND SIMPLER
Maintaining your vehicle’s appearance can and will be a lot easier with a ceramic coating from Splash Hand Car Wash. For one thing, it keeps your vehicle looking cleaner because dirt and grime do not stick to the surface as they normally would. When your vehicle needs professional cleaning, the process is straightforward. The hydrophobic nature of the ceramic coating allows dirt, contaminants, and other types of messes to be easily washed off. No streaks or water spots will remain, and drying is a simple endeavor as well. All this means you can spend less time washing your vehicle and more time enjoying its glossy, top-tier condition!
The Common Myths About Ceramic Coatings
Myth 1: Wax works just as well as a ceramic coating
Wax provides a temporary shine and barrier on the surface of a vehicle, but it wears off much quicker than ceramic coatings. Ceramic coatings bond chemically with the paint of the vehicle, offering a much longer-lasting barrier. This is a result of nanoparticles in the coating itself, and unlike traditional car waxes that need a reapplication every few months, ceramic coatings can last for years. Therefore, ceramic coatings are more effective in maintaining shine over a longer period.
Myth 2: You will never need to wash your vehicle after applying a ceramic coating
Although a ceramic coating does make the surface of your vehicle more resistant to dirt and grime, it does not eliminate the need for washing altogether. Consider professional detailing to maintain your ceramic coating. Dirt, dust, and pollutants can and will still accumulate on the vehicle's surfaces, especially in Illinois. These need to be cleaned off to maintain the vehicle's appearance and the integrity of the ceramic coating. Regular washing helps to prevent excessive contamination build-up that can eventually wear down the coating itself.
Myth 3: Ceramic coatings will only last for a short while
This statement is not true. Ceramic coatings are known for their durability and, more importantly, their longevity. The ceramic coatings used at Splash are warrantied for 4 years, and can last longer with proper maintenance. Likewise, this has to do with how well your ceramic coating is maintained. Our ceramic coatings at Splash Hand Car Wash provide a sustained benefit, keeping the vehicle looking better for a longer period without the need for frequent reapplication.
FAQ
Ceramic Coating FAQs - Answered
-
What exactly is a ceramic coating?
A ceramic coating is a clear coat applied by our professional team at Splash Hand Car Wash. It is a liquid polymer solution that gets applied over the surfaces of your vehicle. When it cures, it forms a solid, immovable bond with your vehicle’s original paint to create a durable, hydrophobic layer. This hard layer has a glass -like finish that makes your paint look exceptional. It gives the vehicle a glossy
appearance that enhances the color and de
tail of your finish as well. Ceramic coatings are popular for their ability to keep vehicles looking great for an extended period of time.
-
Will a ceramic coating prevent paint scratches?
Ceramic coatings do not prevent scratches on your vehicle. They do cover the original finish, but they themselves can suffer from nicks, scrapes, and more. It is important to understand that the ceramic coating you choose from us adds a hard, slick layer to your vehicle. It is not impervious to physical damage and cannot self-heal as paint protection film does. Proper maintenance by our detailing team is crucial to keep your ceramic coating in top shape. This includes regular washing and avoiding harsh cleaning tools that can scratch the surface.
-
What are the benefits of applying a ceramic coating to your vehicle?
There are numerous benefits to adding a ceramic coating to your vehicle. First, it enhances the visual appeal of your paintwork by adding a glossy surface to it, increasing paint depth, color richness, and more. Second, it makes cleaning your vehicle easier since dirt and grime adhere less strongly to the hydrophobic surface of your ceramic coating. Third, a ceramic-coated vehicle can maintain its clean and polished look for a longer period. Overall, a ceramic coating offers a great way to keep your vehicle looking fresh and clean with less effort.
