Are you a BMW owner who seems to be on a perpetual quest to find different ways to enhance your car’s appearance and maximize its longevity? If you answered yes, you might find adding ceramic coating to your BMW to be an excellent solution. Its extraordinary ability to not only preserve but to amplify the aesthetics of your car’s paint job, has made it gain quite a bit of traction among car enthusiasts. Unsurprisingly, this has become a sought-after product in recent years.
Ceramic coating is a silica-based, liquid solution. It is a chemical polymer that is used as a sealant. Due to its naturally hydrophobic (repels water) nature, this makes a superior sealant. The coating is applied by hand to the exterior of a vehicle. The polymer bonds with the paint of your car, creating a clear, smooth, and glossy film that enhances durability of the paint. After the coating cures, it creates a protective layer guarding the paint and body of your BMW from the elements.
This ceramic coating is excellent for the entire exterior of the car. Not only does it protect the paint, but it can also be used on the undercarriage of your car and even the engine. By blocking the pores of the car’s metal, it insulates against heat and reduces corrosion and rust from road salt or water. It decreases the chance of micro-abrasions from dust and dirt and protects your car from the harmful effects of the sun, rain, and snow. Let’s look at some more advantages of adding ceramic coating to your BMW:
The sun’s UV (Ultraviolet) rays are perhaps the number one reason for cars to lose their beautiful shine over time. Prolonged exposure makes the paint oxidize and fade. The ceramic coating layer is a protective screen for your Beamer. It prevents the paint from peeling and premature aging, keeping it shiny and vibrant.
Rain is another reason why cars suffer from paint and body damage over time. The ceramic coating is hydrophobic in nature, meaning it repels water. Therefore, whether the car is being driven in rain or over puddles, the ceramic coat creates a protective barrier. This keeps the body from rusting. Also, road salt and brine cannot attack the actual body of the car.
The polymer coating protects your Bimmer from other environmental hazards like bird droppings, tree sap, and dirt. Bird droppings are acidic in nature and can ruin your BMW’s paint. Tree sap is a similar problem. Dust and dirt can cause micro scratches. With a ceramic coating, you don’t have to worry about these issues.
The high gloss quality of the ceramic coating will give your car a stunning look. Your Beemer already comes with a gorgeous paint job, but the ceramic coating adds a layer of luster and depth that produces a remarkable finish.
Since the ceramic coating is hydrophobic, water forms beads on the body or undercarriage of your car and simply rolls off, taking dirt and other contaminants with it. This makes it easier to keep clean.
You can have the polymer coating applied to your engine and chassis. The entire undercarriage, frame, etc can be coated with it. This durable, heat-resistant layer improves heat management, protects from corrosion, reduces wear and tear, and, in general, improves performance. In the long run, you save money by having lower maintenance costs.
As a BMW owner, you know it—a well-maintained car that looks like new is a deep source of pride and joy for you. Now, if you wanted to sell this excellently-maintained car, imagine your potential buyer’s impression of it! Let’s face it—looks sell. In addition, it’s not just about the paint job—your engine and chassis are also protected by the ceramic coating, which keeps it from rust and other damage. Naturally, the resale value of your BMW will be higher.
