Spring Pollutants Call for Better Vehicle Paint Protection

Caliber Ceramic Coating

Caliber Car Wash Offers State of the Art Ceramic Coating and Rain Guard

This spring, motorists will face pollen, bugs, acidic rain, and other environmental pollutants. To preserve the longevity of their vehicle’s paint job, car owners can protect their investment through state-of-the-art ceramic coating and rain guard.

The average motorist will spend almost 300 hours in their car this year, according to Washington Area New Automobile Dealers Association (WANDA). As spring weather hits, drivers should consider protecting vehicles through the use of two state-of-the-art products that will help wax protect against rain, pollen, and pollutants.

Ceramic coating, a well-known liquid polymer applied to the exterior of a vehicle, was recently formulated for car wash tunnel application. The coating chemically pairs with a wax and bonds with the vehicle’s paint, creating an additional layer of protection between the car and environmental pollutants, similar to a cell phone case. During the spring season, ceramic coating is especially important to prevent pollen from accumulating on a vehicle’s surface and binding itself to the car’s paint, eventually leading to surface erosion.

For consumers in heavy rain areas like Florida, Georgia, and North Carolina, rain guard contributes to a prolonged shine because of its composition that is purposed to create better visibility while driving by “beading” the water off the windshield. This prevents water from accumulating on the vehicle’s surface, drying, and eventually leaving behind water stains from rain pollutants.

“Ceramic coating and rain guard are essential during this time of year,” said Aubry Bass, Caliber Car Wash District Manager. “Without the added layer of protection that ceramic coating and rain guard provide, you’ll start seeing paint damage at a much quicker rate.”

Experts recommend reapplying both Ceramic Coating and rain guard weekly during the spring season due to the weather and every two weeks during other times of the year.
