Question · Ceramic Coating
How do you maintain a ceramic coating?
Two-bucket hand wash every 2-3 weeks with pH-neutral soap. Quarterly maintenance wash with a ceramic-friendly booster. Skip the tunnel wash. That is the whole program.

WHEN THIS IS NOT THE RIGHT CALL
When to pick something else.
Do not pressure-wash at high pressure within 6 inches of edges or seams. Do not use degreaser or alkaline cleaners on the coated surface.
FAQS
Common follow-up questions.
How often should I wash a coated car?
Every 2-3 weeks for the driveway. Less if the car is garaged and rarely driven. The coating wants to be cleaned to perform.
Can I go through a tunnel wash?
Touchless OK. Soft-cloth and brush tunnels — no. The soaps are alkaline and the brushes carry grit.
My beading is going away — is the coating dead?
Probably not. It is contaminated. A maintenance wash with iron remover usually restores beading.
