What is the difference between vehicle coating and crystal coating?
1 Answers
Automobile coating involves applying a protective film on the car's paint surface. Automobile crystal coating involves applying a layer of crystals on the car's paint surface. The main differences between the two are as follows: 1. Different protective effects: Organic coating falls under the category of basic protection, improving the paint's oxidation resistance and providing a brightening effect. Inorganic coating belongs to the super protection category, enhancing not only the paint's oxidation resistance but also increasing the hardness of the paint surface. Crystal coating is in the general protection category, offering oxidation resistance and increased hardness for the paint surface. 2. Different durability: Organic coatings generally last 6-12 months. Inorganic coatings can last over 36 months. Crystal coatings typically last 12-18 months. 3. Different material categories: The products used for coatings are more complex, with three different categories (resin, fluorine, and glass-based), broadly divided into organic and inorganic coatings. The effectiveness of inorganic coatings is far superior to organic coatings. Crystal coating can be seen as a variant of coating, also falling under the organic coating category. 4. Different follow-up maintenance: Organic coatings do not require subsequent waxing maintenance. Inorganic coatings require water-repellent maintenance every 12 months (to enhance the paint's water-shedding properties). Crystal coatings generally require maintenance every six months.
