The Ultimate Post-Coating Car Care Routine

Getting the most out of your ceramic coating starts with the right maintenance routine from day one.

The First 7 Days

Avoid washing, rain exposure where possible, and automated car washes while the coating fully cures.

Washing Technique

Use the two-bucket method with a pH-neutral shampoo, and always use a clean microfiber wash mitt to avoid introducing swirl marks on top of your coating.

Drying

Use a clean microfiber drying towel or a leaf blower-style dryer to avoid water spots forming on the hydrophobic surface.

Between Washes

A quick rinse or spray detailer can keep light dust off without a full wash cycle.

Following this routine will help your coating retain its gloss and hydrophobic performance for its full warranty period.
