Q: What is a ceramic coating?

A: A ceramic coating is a liquid protective coating that chemically bonds to a vehicle's paint and creates a durable, hydrophobic surface. It helps protect the paint while making the vehicle easier to clean.

Q: How long does a ceramic coating last?

A: At Bowen Details, we use a 5 year Ceramic coating. The coating doesn't simply stop working at the 5-year mark—instead, its performance gradually decreases over time. With proper care, a quality coating may continue providing benefits beyond its rated lifespan.

Q: Does a ceramic coating prevent scratches?

A: Ceramic coatings provide protection against environmental contaminants and make the surface more resistant to some minor wear, but they are not designed to prevent scratches, rock chips, or major physical damage.
