Gloss that is
easier to keep.

Ceramic coating adds a hydrophobic surface layer intended to support gloss and easier maintenance. The result depends heavily on the surface beneath it, so preparation comes first.

How Phantom plans a coating

Inspect

Paint, contamination, defects, prior protection, and the desired result are reviewed.

Prepare

Required cleaning and surface preparation are scoped before application.

Apply and cure

Application and initial care follow the selected coating system.

Ceramic coating is not paint protection film. It does not create an impact-resistant barrier against rock chips.

What does ceramic coating do?

It creates a hydrophobic surface that can support gloss and easier washing. Performance depends on product, preparation, exposure, and maintenance.

Does coating prevent scratches and rock chips?

No. Ceramic coating is not impact protection; drivers focused on road debris should also consider paint protection film.

Can coating go over vinyl wrap or PPF?

Some systems may be suitable, but compatibility and the desired finish must be confirmed for the exact film and coating combination.

Does paint need correction first?

Correction needs depend on the existing paint and expected result. A coating does not hide every defect.

How is a coated vehicle maintained?

Use careful washing and follow guidance for the selected coating. Harsh chemicals and neglected contamination can affect performance.
