DIY Ceramic Paint Protection With Detail Ease
Of all of the ways you can inject some life into your vehicle, a good clean and polish are often the most cost-effective and rewarding. The problem with this method is that improper washing from various car wash facilities, parking lot dings, road rash along with the often harsh South African elements leave your paint, trim and rubber seals looking decidedly second hand and in need of some TLC.
In recent years, the idea of ceramic coating one's car has risen to prominence as a method of preserving paint and maintaining a year-round shine while simultaneously protecting your paint from potential damage. The team at Detail Ease has a revolutionary product that allows you to ceramic coat your car all by yourself, providing self-satisfaction and protection for your pride and joy at the same time.
Understanding automotive paint
That painted finish on your vehicle is far more complex than you might imagine. In preparation for the paint to be applied, the bare sheet metal of your vehicle is prepared by using a primer, which includes rust inhibitors and also fills in any imperfections on the metal surface, making it ready for paint. After this, the basecoat, which is the pigment-based colour of the car, is applied in stages which often exceed three coats, each of which must first dry before the next is applied. The base coat is usually one of four types, a flat, a metallic, a pearlescent or a matte pigment.
The final piece of the car colour puzzle is the application of the clear coat, which enables the car to withstand UV light, therefore protecting the colour below while also providing the glossy finish associated with many paint finishes. With this in mind, we can see that automotive paint is complex, and certainly something worth maintaining to ensure its longevity.
A vehicle's paint is under a constant threat from mud, dust, dirty water, brake dust, stones and many other contaminants which, over time, can damage the clearcoat, leaving the pigment-based colour below susceptible to damage. Many people attempt to keep their vehicles clean by regular washing, which as admirable as this may sound, could be exacerbating the problem.
Polishing your paint may leave a shiny finish; however, it still leaves it exposed to the elements and contaminants. This is where a ceramic coating comes in; by coating your vehicle’s body with an additional layer of protection, the clear coat and paint beneath remain intact and protected.

The beauty of this product is that it is easily applied using one of the two microfibre cloths that can be purchased with each bottle of Ceramic Nano Guard.
The 4 step application process has been designed to make your life easy. Simply apply our scientifically formulated solution generously to one microfibre cloth and onto a 1m x 1m surface.
