For car enthusiasts, a vehicle embodies both luxury and a sense of freedom.<\/em> Driving that beautiful and powerful piece of machinery in gorgeous weather is one of the rewards for working so hard at keeping that car pristine and in good working condition. But, the world is given to entropy, and your car will fall victim to the ravages of time, the elements, and angry birds letting you know in the most disgusting way possible just what they think of your prized possession. There\u2019s nothing worse than spending your time and hard-earned cash lovingly caring for your car, only to find its shiny surface quickly marred by bird droppings, tree sap, mud, and other debris.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n But, most people can\u2019t afford a luxury vehicle. Still, everyone who\u2019s ever owned a car knows how quickly those things depreciate. A car is a big-ticket item, and to keep it holding onto its value just a little longer, you\u2019ll need to keep it clean. There are products to remove car scratches caused by various contaminants and to help protect your car. But cleaning the surface of your car can eat up a lot of your time, and it sure isn\u2019t easy on the joints.<\/em> Plus, the benefits of waxing will only last you a few months, at best. And washing your car at a commercial car wash uses harsh chemicals that can ruin the integrity of your car\u2019s paint. So, how can you protect the surface of your vehicle, keep it looking good, and save yourself time and elbow grease in the process?<\/p>\n\n\n\n Nanotechnology is the manipulation of matter on a molecular scale to produce or fabricate a macroscale product. Basically, science can save your paint job.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Nanotechnology has been around for decades, and at first, was relegated to the space industry. Since then, nanotechnology has invaded other niches and markets, including the automotive industry. Now, you can keep your car\u2019s surface safe and protected from debris and evil, low-rent pigeons with the shield of science, i.e., ceramic coating<\/a><\/span> and glass coatings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Because these coatings are nanotech in a bottle<\/strong><\/em>, only a tiny bit of the stuff is needed to cover an entire car. If you\u2019ve ever seen a bottle of one of these products you\u2019ll be amazed at how a container the size of a standard ketchup bottle can protect an entire vehicle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n These nano products act as a second, protective layer over your car\u2019s clear coat or paint. Since the products consist of incredibly tiny nanotech particles, the coating gets into and seals every pore on the surface of your car. <\/strong><\/em> Once dry, the coating is completely transparent and hard.<\/p>\n\n\n\nEnter nanotechnology.<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
How do ceramic coating and glass coating products work?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
