It is acceptable to apply crystal coating on a new car after three months of driving. Introduction to Car Crystal Coating: Car crystal coating involves providing a reliable paint sealing technology for the car's paint, offering efficient and long-lasting protection against environmental factors that may affect the paint's color. A water droplet experiment demonstrated that after six months of use, the car's paint surface remained flawless. Benefits of Crystal Coating: Crystal coating protects the vehicle from minor daily scratches. Even when external forces exceed the elastic protection range of the coating, it usually only leaves scratches on the coating without damaging the paint. The coating isolates the paint from the external environment, effectively preventing oxidation and resisting corrosion from bird droppings, insect residues, acid rain, and more.
It's completely fine to apply ceramic coating after three months of driving a new car. I did mine after three months. By then, the paint had stabilized a bit, and the original protective film might have worn off. Ceramic coating enhances scratch and UV resistance. The car wash owner mentioned that the paint undergoes curing in the first three months, so the coating adheres better. After the treatment, my car shines like a mirror—rainwater washes away dirt easily, and bird droppings don’t stick at all, making maintenance effortless. Even after six months, it still looks brand new, saving me a lot on upkeep. If you drive frequently or live in a heavily polluted area, getting ceramic coating early is more cost-effective. Don’t wait until the paint has issues to regret it.
