When winter hits it’s important to know how you can upgrade your vehicle to help protect it from the changing conditions. Rain, frost, dirt and grime paired with falling temperatures can cause some serious trouble for your vehicle’s paintwork if it isn’t properly protected.
This is exactly why ceramic coating in winter is so much more than just a luxury finish, it’s a smart, long-term investment that can prolong your vehicle’s pristine condition as well as boost its resale value.
Unlike traditional waxing, ceramic coatings offer a powerful, long-lasting paint protection that really stands up against even the harshest winter elements. With our nationwide mobile detailing services it’s easier than ever to protect your vehicle this winter.
Let’s look at why now is the perfect time to book in for an upgrade with Australia’s Detailing Group and our ceramic coating specialists.
Why Winter is Tough on Your Car’s Paint
Okay, so we’re not going to be experiencing a winter as chilly as somewhere like Alaska, but that doesn’t mean that Aussie winters are going to be going easy on your vehicle. Even rainwater can carry pollutants that damage your vehicle’s paintwork far more than many of our customers realise.
Not only that, but frost can dull or crack unprotected surfaces, whilst road debris like grit and mud acts like sandpaper when you’re driving, working to scuff and scrape all of your paintwork.
It’s important to understand that these go far beyond cosmetic issues. Over time, any exposure to the elements can lead to oxidation, fading, and corrosion, which can become extremely serious. If you want to preserve your vehicle’s appearance and resale value, now is the time to take action.
What Is Ceramic Coating?
Ceramic coating is a liquid polymer which is applied to the exterior of your vehicle, where it bonds chemically to the paint to create a durable hydrophobic layer.
Often compared to wax, ceramic coatings are different as they penetrate the surface of your paintwork, whereas wax sits on the top and wears off very quickly. Ceramic coatings are considered a semi-permanent shield that with proper care, can last for years.
In the world of auto detailing in Australia, ceramic coatings are an absolute game-changer. Unbeatable protection against the elements that boosts your vehicle’s resale value whilst prolonging the effects of your detailing appointments really is a must have for car owners.
Benefits of Ceramic Coating in Winter
We’ve listed a few of the benefits already, but let’s take a look at the full list of benefits of ceramic coating in winter!
Better Protection from Moisture and Grime
Even here in Australia, winter brings rain, puddles and grubby roads. Ceramic coating is hydrophobic, meaning that less grime and mucky water will be taken with you as you drive down winter roads. This will help protect car paint for much longer and avoid irritating water spots.
Resistant to Frost and Temperature Fluctuations
Those mornings when you’re scraping frost off your windshield also mean frost on your paintwork. Of course, that’s asking for damage, which is why ceramic coatings are a must. Ceramic coatings offer an extra layer of insulation between your paint and the cold, which helps to prevent cracking and micro scratches from occurring.
Last Much Longer Than Wax
Wax is cheaper because it just does not compare to ceramic coatings. Wax wears off in a matter of weeks, whereas ceramic coatings last for years with minimal maintenance. This makes them the perfect choices for winter when regular washing and re-waxing becomes a chore you dread.
Low Maintenance and Looks Amazing
Many of our customers report back to us that when they choose ceramic coatings, they find themselves booking far fewer detailing appointments and no longer have to touch up their vehicle between sessions. Dirt, mud and water roll right off the surface, and even more stubborn stains are much easier to remove. It really is the ultimate winter car care hack!
