Your vehicles paint is made up of 3 layers, your Primer, Base Color and your clear coat Layer. The combination of all 3 of these is what gives your vehicle that awesome look, but there’s only one layer holding it all together… That layer is your clear coat.
The clear coat layer of your paint is usually thinner than a piece of paper. This is also the layer that will take all of the beating the elements and roads have to throw at it. It Is necessary to protect this layer from everything possible as it is quite fragile when it comes to everyday use.
Why do I need to protect my vehicle with Ceramic Coatings?
The paint on new vehicles is getting thinner and thinner the newer they are. ZJ Detailing deals with primarily brand new vehicles so we can see this first hand. We use a tool called a Paint Depth Gauge to measure the paint, we typically want to see anywhere from 5-7 mils of paint (This means we can safely polish the paint).
Almost every single brand new vehicle we have seen in the shop has been far below this level, We just had a 2022 GMC 2500 in the shop with 2.4mils of paint… This is enough to very lightly polish the surface one time.
This paint is getting so thin that is absolutely necessary to protect it with a long term protection like a Ceramic Coating or Paint Protection Film (PPF).
