Is there a ceramic coating for convertible roofs?
There are ceramic products for cabriolet hoods, but as yet, there are none we have been tempted to try.
There are ceramic coating suppliers who do coatings for convertible roofs, but they aren't ceramic products. We have used these, and they are on a par with 1-year coatings we currently use.
There are also products for soft tops which claim to contain ceramic, however we have no reason to be confident that this is anything more than a marketing gimmick and will be any more effective than the dozens of other retail products which have "ceramic" on the label. Generally these don't make any claim as to how long they last, and we think if they were especially durable they would boast about this.
We have run across ceramic products for hoods which claim to last 6-9 months, which is considerably shorter than any of the non-ceramic products we currently use.
As yet, none of the reputable ceramic coating suppliers has come to us with a product for convertible tops which they claim is a leap forward. If they did, we would definitely be interested.
