Benefits of Automotive Glass Coating
One of the biggest advantages of glass coatings is improved visibility during heavy rain, snow, harsh weather, or fog.
This is because, as you can see, Hydrophobic coatings, for example, cause water beads to form and roll off the windshield - ensuring that rainwater doesn’t obstruct your view.
Glass treatment can reduce the level of effort that the windshield wipers need to put in, which also minimises wear and tear on your wiper blades as a result as well.
UV Protection for Windshields and Windows
UV rays from the sun can cause significant damage to your vehicle’s glass and interior leather over time.
By applying a glass coating with UV protection, we can help prevent discolouration and simultaneously protect your dashboard and other interior components.
This layer of protection also reduces glare, which in turn offers you a clear view while driving in bright sunlight as well.
Long Lasting Glass Coating
Compared to traditional sealants or waxes, glass coatings offer you much longer-lasting protection.
Depending on the product, a single application can last from six months to several years, for instance.
With more DIY ceramic coatings lasting a few weeks.
This extended, long-lasting nature then saves you time and money, as you won’t need to reapply the coating as frequently.
Additionally, coatings are resistant to environmental contaminants like bird droppings, tree sap, and water spots as well - which in turn ensures that these are easier to clean without leaving marks as well.
Scratch Resistance and Surface Protection
While no product can make your glass completely scratch-proof, ceramic glass coatings add a protective layer that helps prevent minor scratches and abrasions from occurring.
This is especially useful in protecting windshield glass from damage caused by windshield wipers, dirt, and debris as well.
Consequently, the added hardness of ceramic coatings can then further reduce the risk of scratches and enhance the overall quality of the glass finish as a result.
