Can I use ceramic coating on vinyl?Updated 7 months ago
Yes, you can use ceramic coating on vinyl wraps! Applying a ceramic coating to vinyl can offer several benefits, just like with Paint Protection Film (PPF):
Benefits of Applying Ceramic Coating to Vinyl Wraps:
- Enhanced Protection: Ceramic coatings protect the vinyl from UV rays, helping to prevent fading and discoloration over time.
- Hydrophobic Properties: The coating adds water-repellent properties, making it easier to clean and helping to prevent contaminants like dirt, water spots, and bird droppings from sticking to the surface.
- Gloss or Matte Finish Enhancement: Depending on the type of ceramic coating, you can enhance the gloss of a glossy wrap or preserve the look of a matte finish without making it shiny.
- Durability and Longevity: Ceramic coatings can add an extra layer of durability, helping to prevent wear and tear, such as scratches and swirl marks.
Things to Keep in Mind:
- Use a Vinyl-Safe Ceramic Coating: Not all ceramic coatings are formulated for vinyl. Ensure you choose a product that is compatible with vinyl surfaces, such as GYEON Q2 Matte (for matte finishes) or GYEON MOHS EVO (for gloss finishes).
- Installation: Be sure the vinyl is clean and free of any contaminants before applying the coating. Also, ensure the vinyl is fully cured before application.
Applying a ceramic coating to vinyl can help extend its life and keep it looking fresh while making maintenance easier.
