An Audi with a ceramic coating returns for preventive leak work. Car still looking good after the coating. Ceramic vs wax comparison: ceramic is a permanent glass-like layer; wax evaporates within months.
This Audi came back to us for some work to prevent leaks -- convertible cars and older cars of a certain age are both prone to water ingress, and staying ahead of it is far cheaper than dealing with it once it has happened. It is always good to see a car return that has had a ceramic coating applied here; they arrive still looking clean and shiny.
Ceramic coatings make cars easier to clean because the surface is so slick that dirt cannot bond to it and rain water rolls off. Fewer washes means less grit dragged across the lacquer and fewer scratches introduced over time.
Ceramic vs wax: a ceramic coating outlasts a traditional wax in virtually every measure. A car wax is soft oils and waxes that evaporate in the sun within a few months. A ceramic coating behaves like a permanent layer of glass -- tough, optically clear, water-repelling, and lasting years. It can also be applied to metal and glass surfaces, not just paintwork.
