Does Rain Affect the Car After Crystal Coating?
1 Answers
It is best not to expose the car to rain after crystal coating and to keep it dry for more than 24 hours. However, if it does get rained on, there is no major issue—just avoid washing the car. Below is some relevant information: 1. Crystal Coating: This is a hard protective coating specifically designed for key areas of the car, such as the paint surface, glass, tires, rims, seats, engine, interior, and exterior trim. 2. Principle: The fundamental requirement for crystal coating is that the material used is SIO2 inorganic. It forms several molecular-level structures on the applied surface, typically at the nanoscale. Through the action of high-molecular polymers, it creates a barrier layer on the surface. This layer has functions such as UV resistance, oil resistance, low surface energy, and hydrophobicity, thereby protecting the paint surface.
