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.
This question is part of our Ceramic Coating service. See the full service overview, what's included, and how to schedule a walk-around.
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.
