Should you ceramic coat your car?
I just had my car painted my dream color, Sassy Pink, and I really don't want it ruined with chips and scratches. My boss told me to get something called a ceramic coating but I'm not sure if that is a good idea. Should you ceramic coat your car?

That is a fabulous color and I would want to keep it looking good too! Yes, a 9H ceramic coating would be perfect for you in this situation. The coating will protect your paint from minor scratches and be more resistant to pollution, acid rain, and UV rays.
First, a word of warning; a ceramic coating should not be done on a recently painted car. You must wait two weeks before you can even wash a newly painted car— experts recommend waiting between 30-90 days before applying a ceramic coating.
