How To Prepare For Ceramic Coating?
When applied to your car, Ceramic coating infuses with the paint of your vehicle to form a clear coat that both looks great and is durable to save your car’s paint. There are many benefits of ceramic coating for cars, such as protection from harmful UV rays, it provides a shiny gloss, protects your paint from minor scratches & swirl marks, and is long-lasting if done professionally.
The Ceramic Coating Preparation Guide
Even though the ceramic coating is a powerful way to secure your car’s paint, it is crucial to prepare the vehicle for an effective coat. Here’s how we at 3Pedals Detailing prepare a vehicle for professional ceramic coating services.
Step 1: Initial Inspection
Firstly, the car is inspected thoroughly for any issues with the paint. If there is dirt sedimentation or any other snags, the car needs to be cleaned accordingly to remove all the loose dirt and dust. Moreover, all gaps, logos, and other customisations need to be cleaned using high-quality All-Purpose-Cleaners (APC). Furthermore, the car is also inspected for any tar and iron spots, which, if found, need to be removed using professional tar & iron removal products.
Step 2: Comprehensive Wash
Once the spots are identified, the car is thoroughly rinsed and cleaned with high-quality soap and a pressure washer. This step is essential to remove all the loose dirt and dust and any other deposits that may hamper the ceramic coating. Once the car is meticulously cleaned, the vehicle is dried and clayed using a clay bar that removes any contaminants from the car’s paint.
Step 3: Paint Inspection
Next, the paint is inspected from top to bottom to determine how the painted surfaces will be compounded and polished. Compounding is the process of using compounds to restore the damaged car paintwork surfaces. Once the painted areas are compounded and polished, they achieve a high-quality gloss.
Step 4: The Final Prep
Finally, we’ll start prepping the car using a prep liquid. This liquid is used to eradicate any residues left from the polishing compounds, making the coat clean for the final ceramic coating services. If the car is not prepped, some impurities on the paint will stop the ceramic coating from bonding correctly with the paint, thus reducing its efficiency.
Once the prepping is done, the final step before applying the ceramic coating is wiping the car with clean microfiber towels. This process needs to be repeated with multiple clean towels to remove any other settlements.
Step 5: Ceramic Coating
Now, the car is ready for the ceramic coating. Note that the ceramic coating is only effective when applied by ceramic coating professions in a clean and controlled environment with the optimal tools. Using a sub-par service or applying it yourself might do more harm than good for your paint. Therefore, at 3Pedals Detailing Service, we provide the highest quality ceramic coating services for all vehicles, that too at affordable prices.
