Does a White New Car Need Coating?
2 Answers
White new cars do need coating. White car paint is not resistant to dirt, and over time, oxidation can cause the paint to turn yellow. Coating can make the car's surface appear brighter, and even if minor scratches occur, the damage to the car's surface is minimal. Therefore, it is advisable to get a coating for a white new car. Car coating involves applying a coating agent to the car's paint surface, forming a thin, hard, and transparent protective film to enhance the paint's gloss and prevent minor scratches. Macromolecular polymers, which are chains of many molecules, have strong film-forming properties and can create a true protective film. As a result, most car coating products on the market today are macromolecular polymer-based chemical products.
I think ceramic coating is quite necessary for a new white car. The factory clear coat may sound protective enough, but over time, especially for white cars, they're prone to yellowing or staining from UV exposure. When parked outside in summer under intense sunlight, combined with acid rain or bird droppings corrosion, the original factory coating alone might not last more than a few years. Ceramic coating acts as an extra protective layer - it prevents scratches, resists fading, and keeps your car shiny, saving you the hassle of frequent waxing. My own car is white, and I got it coated right after purchase. After over two years, washing has become much easier with water beading right off. If you frequently take long drives or use the car in harsh environments, ceramic coating can extend your paint's lifespan - it's worth the investment.
