How to Wash a Car Before Applying Ceramic Coating

How to Wash a Car Before Applying Ceramic Coating

Preparation guide

Wash before you coat

Coating products work best as the finishing stage of a clean-surface routine. The goal is to remove loose contamination before you spread a finishing product over the paint.

Pre-rinse

Remove loose dirt before contact washing.

Wash carefully

Use a suitable wash product and clean tools, working from cleaner areas toward dirtier areas.

Dry completely

Dry the car before applying a coating spray unless the product directions specifically say otherwise.
