Glass coating is an inorganic material made of a Silica or a Quartz-Silane-based compound. It is used to protect the painted surfaces of car bodies. It is less likely to stain. Unlike traditional wax, its luster and protection can be long-lasting once it is applied. This is because they do not contain materials that oxidize (bind with oxygen). Oxidation weakens the original protection and shine of many car products, thus rendering the car surface prone to damage. It is easy to maintain, provides clean, shiny surfaces and long-lasting protection.What is the difference between coating and wax?The main component of wax is carnauba wax oil, which is extracted from palm trees. In recent years, some waxes have added petroleum. Higher quality waxes contain more carnauba oil. Carnauba wax is oil based, so it has water-repellent characteristics and can obscure scratches. However, there are also disadvantages. Waxes can easily become dirty because oil has a high viscosity (thick and sticky). This means dirt can stick to it. Also, wax can easily melt and deteriorate because it is sensitive to heat. Sunshine or engine heat can promote deterioration and cause wax to melt off the car's surface. Wax can also break down in the rain or when the car is washed.On the other hand, coating has a chemical composition of silicon, silica, fluorine and titanium. These molecules form a film ral 7035 powder coating factory that penetrates between the molecules of the car's painted surface, creating a very powerful protective layer. Resistant to dirt, heat and rain, coating's protection and shine will last over a longer period than wax.There are various kinds of coatings that range in application complexity from simple, which any consumer can apply, to products for professional use only.
