What is a ceramic coating for wheels?

I was complaining to my friend the other day about how much I hated cleaning the tires on my car. It takes way too long! They said that I should get a ceramic coating? What is a ceramic coating for wheels and what does it do?

That is actually a great idea!
Ceramic coating tires isn’t common but it has and can be done. The coating would cut down on cleaning time and add protection to your wheels.
A 9H ceramic coating is a transparent chemical polymer that typically gets applied as an extra layer of protection for automotive paint.
It gives cars a semi-permanent high-gloss shine while protecting the paint from UV rays, pollution, rain, and
minor scratches
. One of its biggest claims to fame is that water and dirt repelled off its surface, making washing the car a breeze.
You can have a ceramic coating applied professionally or order a 9H ceramic coating kit and do it yourself.
