Is Glaze Sealing Necessary for New Cars?

[LaBrady]

New cars generally do not require glaze sealing. Here are the pros and cons of glaze sealing: 1. Advantages: The effect of car glaze sealing is indeed very noticeable. After sealing, the car's brightness becomes significantly brighter, making it look even more beautiful than a new car. It also provides benefits such as resistance to high temperatures, sealing, oxidation resistance, water wash resistance, acid rain protection, and corrosion resistance. Additionally, it lays the foundation for future car detailing, painting, and refurbishment. 2. Disadvantages: Due to the erosive nature of the glaze, once a car has undergone glaze sealing, it cannot be switched to waxing or other paint surface treatments; only continued glaze sealing is possible.

As a true car enthusiast, I immediately applied paint sealant to my new car because it's like putting a protective suit on the paintwork. While new cars do come with a thin factory protective film, it easily fades under sun exposure, gets damaged by bird droppings, or accumulates fine scratches. After adding this hard coating through sealant application, my car stays brilliantly shiny every day and requires less frequent washing - rainwater beads right off without leaving stains, making weekends much more relaxing. Although it costs between 500 to 2000 yuan, it extends the paint's lifespan by several years and prevents costly polishing and repair work later. I always tell fellow car owners that the first few months are the golden period for new car maintenance - the earlier you apply sealant, the better long-term protection you get.

As an ordinary working dad, I always weigh the pros and cons of whether to apply ceramic coating when buying a new car. The factory paint is durable enough, so there's usually no rush in the first six months. However, if you live in a heavily polluted urban area or have kids who frequently scratch the car, doing it early is beneficial. Ceramic coating protects against UV rays and acid rain erosion, keeping the paint shiny and less prone to yellowing. It also makes car washing easier and saves money, considering manual car washes cost dozens of yuan each. I've estimated the cost: mid-range ceramic coating costs a few hundred yuan, and the investment can reduce polishing expenses, making it quite cost-effective. My advice is to act within your means—try a DIY sample first to see the effect, and don't impulsively waste money.

As a new car owner, when I bought my new car, the 4S store staff strongly recommended paint sealing service, so I got curious and asked about it. Actually, the factory paint protection on a new car is quite good, so you don’t necessarily need it right away. Consider adding paint sealing only when you notice the car gets dirty easily or has minor scratches. This treatment can enhance the color shine and prevent dust and rain stains from sticking. It’s especially useful if you often drive long distances or park outdoors. Don’t be intimidated by high quotes—basic options cost just a few hundred yuan, but make sure to choose a professional service provider to avoid damaging the paint.
