This topcoat needs to be protected with the use of a coating specific detail spray.

Ceramic coating vs clear wrap. Spray coating wash and coat trim restore and coat surface prep and 3 in 1 polish and coat sio2 and tio2 blend spray on wipe off application. Ceramic coating is a clear coat which includes a liquid polymer. Moreover when you apply a ceramic coating to your vehicle you get the benefits of its hydrophobic properties on every surface without having to apply film to the whole vehicle. Some paint protection films are equipped with a hydrophobic clear coat but they often do not perform at the same level as a full ceramic coating.

Next you need to protect your long term ceramic coating with a shorter term topcoat. The clear coat on your paint is there to protect it. That s in addition to what you re already paying for the wrap. It can cost about 1 500 on a compact car and 1 800 on an suv.

So this question relates both to what plans you have for protection beyond paint protection film and then how you plan to care for your vehicle in the future. The ceramic coating will help the wrap last longer but it isn t cheap. Now we add a ceramic coating on top to protect the clear coat.
