Product Information

When I was given an opportunity to try this product, I thought I'd give it a go to see if it performs to expectations. Finally, conventional wax is separated into two categories – natural and synthetic. Ceramic car wax formulations are 100% synthetic and have no natural ingredients. Is Ceramic Wax Better than Carnauba Wax? Some people will judge the performance of paint protection wax, ceramic coat, or spray by the time it starts to lose some of its qualities – such as a loss of hydrophobic properties. Others judge longevity by the time they start to see faded paint. That’s ultimately the biggest issue we’ve got with ceramic car waxes in general. It’s just not known how long they will provide protection. How is Ceramic Wax Different from Conventional Wax? Titanium dioxide or TiO2 is the main contributor to the hardness of a ceramic coating product. SiO2 helps maintain a flat surface, which makes the top coat slippery. That’s the attribute most people associate with ceramic paint protection products. But, regardless, the percentage of SiO2 and TiO2 in a ceramic wax pales in comparison with their nano-technology infused older and more mature cousins. The product itself is easy to apply. I would not recommend just washing a car then applying it. To get the best results, you should to a full decontamination wash, pre-wash, wash, clay bar, polish, then it would be ready for the product.

Yes – if you’re a lover of the wax on wax off method of paint protection – a ceramic wax is a far better alternative to the traditional carnauba wax. It’s designed to apply easier, remove easier, can be layered with each application, and simply lasts longer. It gives your paint an added boost of luster and shine – at a depth that is superior to normal wax. What’s the Best Ceramic Wax for Cars? Let’s face it – even the best ceramic wax can’t stand on the same platform as a professional-grade nano ceramic coating like Ceramic Pro 9H. It’s simply not a fair comparison. The ceramic wax is a genuine starting point for those who prefer applying wax onto their car the old fashion way. As a Gen X car guy – I appreciate that – and know there is a passionate consumer market that loves it as well. There are some products marketed as ceramic spray coatings, and others that are designed as paste wax. Some are infused with Silicon dioxide and others are simply chemical polymers that bond to clear coats. Regardless of their exact composition, it is safe to say that a ceramic wax is basically a paint sealant on acid that is applied to your clear coat.

Ceramic waxes are a great option for those traditional DIY car lovers who prefer hand applied paint protection solutions for their car paint. It’s better than traditional products, as the added infusion of silicon dioxide and lab-created synthetic paint sealants cures harder, lasts longer, and provides enhanced hydrophobic properties. This ceramic car wax arrived in its own branded cardboard box which also contains a foam applicator, buffing cloth, protective gloves and an instruction card.

The main difference between these two products is hardness and hydrophobic. Most ceramic waxes are infused with ingredients that cure stronger than natural carnauba wax and synthetic paint sealants. As the wax hardens, it provides a flatter surface, which amplifies the water shedding or hydrophobic properties.This whole area has seen quite an influx of new products, you only need to pop in to a well known retailer to see this. First there were these hybrid ceramic waxes like this and now we have hybrid graphene waxes. One of the best ways to see the difference between traditional carnauba wax vs ceramic car wax is shown above. On the left is a car with a single coat of traditional car wax. The right has a coat of a leading ceramic car wax.

The ceramic waxes are also formulated to allow you to build layers over time. That’s one of the nice features of these products. With traditional car wax, you need to remove the old coatings before you apply a new layer. That’s a thing of the past with ceramic car waxes. I am a member of a detailing club, have been for 10+ years, and as a result I have a plethora of detailing products in my garage from pre-wash foams, to various waxes and sealants. The question most of us ask is whether they’ve succeeded? Well, the jury is still out. In fact, there are some car enthusiasts that have tried these hybrid spray wax products and experienced less-than-stellar results. However, that doesn’t mean that it’s not a good product or offers some added benefits that traditional carnauba wax does not. Believe it or not, most ceramic wax products contain zero ‘natural wax’. They are mainly lab created polymer-based ingredients, sometimes infused with SiO2 or Teflon, which are “ceramic” by definition. These two ingredients help to produce a slippery surface or hydrophobic properties that nano ceramic coatings are primarily known.

A ceramic paint coating in a wax form does not require a ton of surface prep. While it’s a good idea, they simply don’t amplify existing damage on a vehicle’s paintwork like a spray coating or nano coating will. They are also a bit easier to maintain – as you can take your car to the local car wash or use a waterless wash to keep it clean. It is always best to use a good microfiber towel to dry the vehicle with any paint coating. Why Were Ceramic Waxes Made? It seems every time you blink, there is a new ‘super ceramic coating’ introduced to the passionate car care enthusiast. The latest creation of chemists at direct manufacturers of car care solutions is ceramic car wax. Their intent was to infuse the hydrophobic properties found in ceramic coatings with the application found in regular wax.

Making DIY products easier to use has been a focus for all businesses in the automotive industry for years. At its core, that’s the intent of a ceramic coating wax – but with a little spin. The truth is that the most consistent demographic of car care products over the past 20 years has been the Baby Boomer generation. This is the group of car-nuts that grew up with traditional car wax – like Turtle Wax, Meguiar’s and others. As companies started to introduce professional-grade nano ceramic coatings, the in-house chemists and product development experts started to notice a sizable shift in the amount of business being lost.These new lab-created super waxes also offer superior protection against chemicals, both organic and non-organic. Bug splatters, bird droppings, tree sap, and other contaminants are less likely to penetrate the hard shell of protection vs traditional car wax. When using these ceramic wax products, washing your car is also easier. The general rule of paint protection – and reducing the potential of swirl marks, is the stronger or harder the top layer, the less likely scratches will occur. The clear advantage goes to a genuine nano ceramic coating. Ceramic wax doesn’t come close in this matter. Why a 9H Nano Ceramic Coating is the Ultimate Protection That’s difficult for us to answer. It really depends on your preferences. There are some ceramic wax products that are easier to apply – such as the spray-on hybrid ceramic wax products by Meguiar’s hybrid ceramic wax for example. They can be applied on top of you’re average DIY ceramic coating or used as a standalone solution, hold up for about 6 months, and can be layered on top of each coat. Firstly you need to make sure your car is really clean, not polished, really clean. Maybe a clay bar to remove any slight debris too.
