XPEL Fusion Plus & Graphene

Gloss you can see, and a car that stays clean.

XPEL ceramic and graphene coatings that make the surface hydrophobic, resist UV and chemical etching, and take most of the work out of washing.

A ceramic coating is a chemical layer, measured in microns, that bonds to your clear coat and changes how the surface behaves. Water sheets off instead of sitting, dirt struggles to key onto it, bird lime and industrial fallout get far less chance to etch, and UV fade slows down. The gloss lift is immediate and it does not wash off in a month like a wax.

What a coating will not do is stop a stone or a key, and any installer quoting a "9H" rating as scratch-proofing is misreading a pencil hardness test. Coating buys you chemical resistance, easier maintenance and depth of finish. Impact protection is what film is for — which is why most of our customers specify both.

On vehicles already wearing paint protection film we use XPEL ExoArmor, a ceramic formulated for the film’s surface, so you get the hydrophobics without compromising the self-healing topcoat underneath.

Questions

Ceramic Coatings, answered

The specifics people ask about this discipline in particular. The general questions live on the FAQ page.

What is the difference between ceramic and graphene coatings?

Graphene-infused coatings generally give a slicker surface, tighter water behaviour and better resistance to water spotting — which matters on a dark car parked in Gauteng sun where droplets bake on before they run off. The underlying chemistry and the way it is applied are similar; graphene is a refinement rather than a different category.

Does my paint need correcting before coating?

Almost always, and this is the part cheap coating jobs skip. A coating is optically clear and permanent for years — it locks in whatever is underneath it. Swirls, holograms and etching get sealed in and magnified by the added gloss. We correct first, and if we cannot safely remove a defect we tell you before we coat over it.

How do I wash a coated car?

Hand wash with a pH-neutral shampoo and a two-bucket method, dry with a clean microfibre or filtered air, and stay out of automated brush washes. That is it. A coated car takes noticeably less time to wash than an uncoated one, which is most of the point.

What is a ceramic top-up and do I need one?

A top-up is a maintenance layer applied over the existing coating during a service visit, restoring the hydrophobics that gradually dull with washing and sun. It is included in our aftercare programme. It is not a re-coat, and it is what keeps a coating performing through its full warranty term rather than just its first year.

Can leather and interior surfaces be coated?

Yes. Leather protection seals the hide so it resists dye transfer from denim, UV hardening and the everyday wear that turns a bolster shiny. On a light-coloured interior it is one of the highest-value things you can do to a car.
