Paint protection Adelaide: Paint Protection Adelaide ceramic coatings
Paint protection Adelaide ceramic coatings have grown in popularity due to their ability to protect your car and enhance its appearance. Big’s Mobile uses Opti-Coat Pro, a permanent, high-performance ceramic coating that requires no reapplication.
Whether you choose PPF or ceramic, both products offer your vehicle the ultimate protection and visual enhancement. Both are highly durable and simple to maintain.
Opti-Coat Pro
Opti-Coat is a harsh ceramic clear coat that creates a permanent hydrophobic layer of protection. This layer of protection is up to 100 times thicker than a traditional wax or sealant, and it protects your vehicle’s paint from damage caused by natural contaminants such as bird droppings and bug splatter. It also helps to mitigate the effects of chemical etching and fading from harsh UV exposure.
Unlike other products that wash away or break down over time, Opti-Coat is a permanent solution with a 5-year warranty. Opti-Coat’s pre-polymer cross-links form a solid protective film that will not wash or delaminate over time, and it’s resistant to harmful chemicals and multiple car washes. It means that you will save time and money by not having to apply thin coats of wax several times a year.
Moreover, Opti-Coat creates a hydrophobic surface over the factory clear coat, making it easier to wash your car. It means you will have to use less water and cleaning products when washing your car, reducing your vehicle’s environmental impact. You will also notice that your car is much easier to dry after washing and can resist spots and streaks better.
One of the most significant benefits of Opti-Coat is that it can help increase your vehicle’s trade-in or resale value. If your vehicle’s paint is faded, scratched or contaminated, this can drastically decrease the value of your car. However, if Opti-Coat protects your car’s paint, it can remain pristine for years, maximising your return on investment.
Paint Protection Film
While a car’s paint job is crucial to its aesthetic and resale value, everyday driving can easily damage it. Even with regular washing and waxing, a vehicle can get scuffs, scratches, and chemical damage over time. These blemishes diminish the vehicle’s appearance and decrease its resale value. Paint protection films, such as the Kavaca clear bra, can help shield the car from these damages and keep it looking brand-new.
These protective coatings are available in various options, from 3M and XPEL to SunTek and Karlor’s film. These transparent films protect against rock chips, bugs, road debris, gravel, salts, brake dust, bird droppings, acid rain, tar, tree sap, cement, and road grime. They are also resistant to UV rays, which can cause fading and discolouration over time.
Some of these films are self-healing, meaning they will buff themselves out in seconds if they get scratched or scuffed. It’s almost magical to see. The only downside is that it can’t completely protect against significant impacts, so if your car is in an accident, you must visit the body shop for repairs.
Another advantage of these protective coatings is that they can be removed, an excellent option for people leasing their vehicles who don’t want to worry about return fees or exterior damage. However, it’s important to note that the paint beneath the film may be compromised and must be repainted. If this is the case, a professional can polish and correct it, restoring its original appearance. It’s also worth mentioning that these protective coatings don’t protect the paint from other stains, such as oil or mud. These can be cured with special ceramic paint sealants.
Gloss Enhancer
A clear coat with the look of wax and the performance of a sealant, Gloss Enhancer is the finishing product you need to maintain your ceramic coating or paint protection film. This product hydrates and enhances the look of your paint system by filling in minor scratches, swirls and other imperfections, leaving you with extra shine while providing a water-repellent coating that can be wiped clean with a microfiber towel. The product works on matte, satin, single-stage paint, clear coat and vinyl wraps, chrome, and glass. For more information about the paint protection Adelaide ceramic coatings, click here.
