Taking care of our vehicles is not just doing maintainance regularly,but rather an array of activities to keep them looking sharp.Paint protection would be one of the method that would not only protects the cars from ultraviolet light, ozone, salt, dirt, rain, bugs, and bird feces, but as well as keeping the car shinier.They are the invisible barriers of protection that prevent contamination from getting into your clearcoat, and they help keep your car cleaner, longer.
There are different type of car paint protection:
Car Waxing
Car waxes can come in the form of liquids or hard pastes that feature a specific ratio of naturally-occurinf carnauba wax as main ingredient. Waxes are intended to protect the paint and/or increase the depth of gloss. They usually offer that signature wet look shine and are usually easy to apply and remove than paint sealants due to their greater oil content. Traditional waxes will diminish through repeated washes and exposure to the elements. Car waxes usually provide protection for 1-4 months depending on their composition, quality and contents. Comparing to paint sealant, car wax would has less protection longevity. Some hard paste waxes on average last longer than liquid waxes as the carnauba wax ratio is higher in paste waxes.
Paint Coatings
A paint coating (or car coating) is essentially a second layer of paint for your car. It’s typically provided by a car detailer or automotive paint business rather than a car wash and is applied as a kind of secondary coat on top of the existing paint.These coatings are also made out of manmade materials, but they do not look like, or apply like, car waxes or paint sealants. Instead, they are oftentimes of a much thinner viscosity, but they are designed to last 2-5x longer than any other type of paint protection product on the market today.With car paint coatings, you will get maximum durability for the longest lasting paint protection you can buy for your car or truck.Basically the benefits are anti-scratch,high gloss effect, water repellent effect and UV protection.However, they’re pretty costly, a coating session can easily run up to RM3,000.
Paint Sealant
Paint sealants are liquids that contain manmade polymers, resins and synthetics to increase their durability and longevity of protection. Paint sealants offer an easy application processes and offer a extremely tight molecular barrier to a paint surface for increased bonding capability and structure.They are easily applicable liquids mimicking the properties of car waxes but with longer lasting protection and without in-depth shine provided by wax. They are mostly used to protect the vehicle against many climates, and environmental elements, like acid rain, road tar, and ultraviolet rays.
