While Tesla vehicles are becoming increasingly more affordable thanks to provincial and federal rebates, as well as price drops from the company itself, the cars still aren’t considered cheap by any means. When you’re spending that much on a vehicle, it’s a good idea to keep it well-maintained by investing in some sort of protection. Paint Protection Film (PPF) is a popular choice amongst Tesla owners and provides many benefits. However, Ceramic Coating is another option that shouldn’t be overlooked. So, should you get Ceramic Coating for your Tesla? Continue reading for more.

What is Ceramic Coating?

Ceramic Coating can be a permanent or semi-permanent coating, depending on the type that you get. It’s applied to the exterior of your car and is considered one of the best paint treatments available for protection. It’s layered onto your vehicle in liquid form, but eventually forms a hard layer over the car’s paint.

DID YOU KNOW: The first Ceramic Coatings were developed in the 1960s for use in the aerospace industry, specifically to protect the crafts from extreme external temperatures. However, in 1970 European car manufacturers conceived the first clear-coat protective finish for the auto industry, and it continued to gain traction from there.

Benefits of Ceramic Coating

A correctly installed Ceramic Coat will protect the vehicle’s paint from road salt, insect acid, rust, and bird droppings. It will also provide safety against damage from weathering and harsh UV rays as well.

Think of Ceramic Coating as an additional layer of a clear coat, only a lot harder, which allows for peace of mind and enjoyment of your Tesla, even in harsh environments. In addition to the protective features, the coat also provides a high gloss effect which keeps your car looking new for a long time.

NOTE: Ceramic Coats create a hydrophobic layer on your vehicle that repels water, dirt, and oils. This will reduce the need for car washes over time and is an underrated benefit of this service.
