Windshield Ceramic Coating
Does it work?

For example, liquid glass provides basic windshield protection, namely, a self-cleaning effect, eliminating all contaminants and water beads after rain and snow. It creates a protective layer resistant to the chemicals used on the roads during the winter.

If a more advanced approach is needed, using ceramic coatings is better. For instance, the hydrophobic product professional grade FUSION PLUS™, which our center’s experts use, ensures maximum protection against external factors.

Next, we’ll address questions like, “Can you put ceramic coating on windshield?” and how to go about it.

Invisible Glass Ceramic Coating – Stunning Shine and Extra Protection

Nano-ceramics are next-generation products designed for coating the body, glass, and optics. Glass ceramic coating technology was developed by American and Japanese scientists. Their research involved the use of silicon-organic compounds, such as SiO2, which can create a thick polymer layer on the glass surface, providing better resistance to external factors.

Ceramic technology creates an invisible glass-ceramic coating on the surface in the form of a hydrophobic layer ranging from 0.2 to 1.5 microns thick with a strong covalent bond. Thus, nano ceramic glass coating acts like an invisible shield, inert to atmospheric, temperature, mechanical, and chemical contaminants. Additionally, ceramic coating for car windows outperforms traditional protective wax in hardness and self-cleaning properties, lasting up to 24 months.

Applying nanoceramics to car window glass provides a powerful water-repellent effect, prevents streaks, and makes snow and ice removal easier. Water beads and dirt easy slide off the hydrophobic layer under the influence of airflow.

Let’s consider how to apply ceramic coating on glass:

• Comprehensive car washing. The top layer of the glass coat needs to be thoroughly cleaned of dust, dirt, hard water spots, grease, and other contaminants. Use a special glass cleaner for this purpose.
• Polishing and defect removal. Before treatment, the surface of all the glass should be leveled as much as possible, and minor chips, scratches, and defects should be removed.
• Application of glass coat ceramic coating. The composition is evenly distributed over the front windshield using a sponge or applicator.
• Drying and subsequent polishing. After applying the window ceramic coating, it should be dried and treated with a damp cloth using a special product to give the glass maximum shine.

Thorough preparation before using the technology yields real results, unlike traditional wax. During these processes, specialists strictly follow the manufacturer’s instructions. The procedure takes place in a room with an air temperature of 10-35°C, as deviating from the temperature regime can affect the properties of the cured coating.

Important! After applying ceramic coating, it is not recommended to use the car for about an hour, and you should avoid car washing for three days.

Why is there a growing trend among car owners to use ceramic coatings on glass surfaces? Let’s discuss further.

6. Hydrophobic effect. Ceramic coating on windows possesses water- and dirt-repelling properties much more effective than regular windshield wipers. At speeds of 60-70 km/h, there’s no need for windshield wipers—the air resistance clears raindrops, ensuring excellent road visibility.
7. Effective antiseptic properties. Glass ceramic coatings protect the car’s glass surface from mold and bacteria.
8. Nighttime visibility. At night, visibility through the glass coat ceramic coating treated with a protective layer increases significantly.
9. Ease of maintenance. Car window ceramic coating significantly reduces susceptibility to various contaminants, making it easier to care for and clean.
10. Durability. Ceramic coating on windshields typically lasts from six months to up to two years, depending on the manufacturer and the level of protection provided.

Recommendation! It’s better to apply protective ceramic coatings not only to the front windshield but also to the rear and side windows of the car.
