Ceramic coating is a premium paint protection solution that enhances your vehicle’s gloss, hydrophobic effect, and resistance to environmental damage. To maintain these benefits for years, proper after ceramic coating care is essential.
At Menora We2 Auto Detailing Studio, serving Irinjalakuda, Thrissur, and Angamaly, we recommend the following aftercare guidelines to protect your investment and keep your car looking brand new.
Why After Care Is Important After Ceramic Coating
After ceramic coating, the protective layer needs time to fully cure and bond with your vehicle’s paint. Improper washing or exposure to harsh conditions can reduce the coating’s lifespan.
Proper maintenance ensures:
Long-lasting showroom gloss
Strong water-repellent (hydrophobic) performance
Protection from UV rays, acid rain, and dirt
Extended ceramic coating durability
