Wax provides a temporary layer of protection that typically lasts 1-3 months. It offers a warm, deep shine but requires frequent reapplication. Ceramic coating is a semi-permanent solution that chemically bonds with your car's paint, providing protection for 1-5 years depending on the product. It offers superior protection against UV rays, chemical stains, and minor scratches.
Regular maintenance is key to keeping your car looking great between professional details. This includes regular washing using proper techniques and products, quick spot cleaning of bird droppings or tree sap, interior vacuuming, and using appropriate protectants for your dashboard and leather surfaces.
