Product Q&As:
Q&A:
Q: I purchased graphene ceramic coating. If I want to apply a second layer, how long do I let the first one cure?
Answer: We recommend waiting a minimum of 12 hours between coats, but 24 hours is optimal.
Q: To reboost a previously applied Graphene Ceramic coating to remove some containments, should you clay it, or light buff it?
Answer: Claying your ceramic coating every 6-12 months is highly recommended. You will not hurt the finish by doing so, and in fact it is worse for the coating to not clay. By not claying, you are allowing bonded contaminants to slowly eat through the ceramic coating.
Q: I recently purchased your graphene coating kit and would like to know if applying it over PPF is recommended.
Answer: Absolutely! Our ceramic coatings can be applied over the top of a Paint Protection Film
Q: “Can I Apply the Advanced Formula Over My Existing Coating?”
Answer: Yes you can! For a quick installation, you can wipe the vehicle down with our surface prep and then coat it. For a longer lasting, more durable protection we recommend decontaminating the vehicle with clay and or machine polishing prior to applying the new coating. Visit our Featured Collection for details and options.
Q: “Can I layer this product to make it last longer?”
Answer: Yes, of course, but that doesn’t mean layering this product 10 times will make it 10x longer— any application after 3 rounds will render the product redundant and still provide the same hydrophobic effects.
Q: “What is Ceramic Glow Technology?”
Answer: Ceramic Glow Technology™ is a Patent-Pending chemistry. It’s a crystalline form of an optical brightener that absorbs energy and emits light as it relaxes back down to a lower energy state. This will make it easier to avoid missing any areas during the application stage.
Q: “What’s the difference between fluorescence and phosphorescence?”
Answer: Length of time that the light is emitted. Said another way, the amount of time it takes for the electrons to relax and quit releasing energy in the form of photons or light.
Q: “Does the UV Coating act as a durability indicator?”
Answer: No, it doesn’t. It’s currently offered as an application aid and utility for visualizing the coating. Lack of glow does not indicate lack of coating.
Q: “Why does the product glow more intensely on some substrates than others?”
Answer: Differences in porosity and the ability of the coating to penetrate and bond to different surfaces will cause different levels of film thickness. The thicker the film, the more intense the glow typically.
Q: “Will my car glow blue in the sunlight?”
Answer: No, because this coating is completely invisible and clear under standard light, the coating will only glow a bluish hue under the 395 NM UV light.
Q: “Will this coating glow after being “charged” with the UV light?”
Answer: No, since this coating is fluorescent and not phosphorescent, it will excite and glow only when the light is shone. Contrarily, “glow in the dark” items have a yellow/greenish hue from phosphorescent dyes-- these slowly become excited under any light and will diminish over the course of a few minutes.
Q: “What can I use this on? Can I just use this on the whole car?”
Answer: Our Advanced H10 UV Graphene Ceramic Coating provides protection to an extreme range of areas on your vehicle including Painted surfaces, Trim, Bed Rail Covers, Plastic Engine Bay Components, Headlights, Bed liners, - all are safe to be protected.
Q: “What happens if I forget a spot or end up with a high-spot?”
Answer: If you forget a spot and you catch it in time (10-20 minutes after removal) simply reapply to that area and wipe off after 1-2 minutes. Reactivating the product will allow for easier removal. If left on for longer, we recommend Brilliant Glaze and a microfiber applicator, or machine polishing with Correcting Polish to fully remove the imperfection.
Common Sense Warning:
Our Graphene Ceramic Coating™ Advanced is a semi-permanent ceramic coating. Avoid contact with eyes, nose, and ingestion – always keep away from children! If contact does occur, rinse thoroughly with water and monitor for irritation. If irritation persists, contact a physician.
