Adds durable protection and slickness, but cannot stop every scratch; proper washing still matters
Preparation makes the difference; coating over swirls just protects swirled paint; correction first creates the clarity and gloss people actually want
Wax adds a few weeks of shine; a professional ceramic coating gives years of protection, stronger chemical resistance, better water behavior and easier maintenance
