Ceramic coating has been used in
many industries for its water repellent properties. However, its usage is not
limited to that only. It’s a great way to save your vehicle paint against
various harms.
The major thing regarding a
nano-ceramic coating is its hardness which is denoted by ‘H’. Many coating
studios offer Ceramic Coatings but there is no certain way to test their ‘H’
level except for MoHS scale which is not readily available everywhere.
Tough many brands show their
product to have 9H hardness only fewer claims are true. If you stumble across a
studio which does it for a few bucks, beware...that coating must have been
diluted and, in that case, it's repellent properties drop significantly.
A good ceramic coating will
obviously, cost a bit higher due to the concentration of nanoparticles in it.
More nanoparticles in a coating indicate a better bonding with the vehicle
paint surface (lesser one usually fades out in a few weeks or months). And more
nanoparticles means more hardness.
So, if you’re looking for a
perfectly balanced 9H ceramic coating. I would recommend going with Detailing
Devils 9H DNA. Although there are lots of studios out there like Ceramic Pro,
Always Dry, Detailing Mafia and such which provides the same but I think
Detailing Devils takes the crown because it provides 9H quality water repellent
coating in budget prices.
Moreover, I think there coating
really is at 9H level because of the strong clear layer of coating visible
after the process which has ‘self-healing’ properties. So, if you want to get
your vehicle coated that desperately with 9H hardness level of protection than
you can try Detailing Devils. Otherwise, you can ask for different studios and
compare yourself about the quality and price of ceramic coating.
Detailing Devils provides a free
demo so it’s a win-win in their case. Because you can assure yourself of its
quality before buying.
How much does ceramic coating cost in India?
It depends on the coating in
itself. There are so many studios nowadays that they all have their own price
lists. Some might throw you the same service for less price while others might
raise a steep rate.
Brand image and how popular they
are is a major factor like any other product you buy in the market. In India,
the ceramic coating can cost from a mere 2000 rupees to a staggering 1 lakh.
Whether it is available in DIY or in a form of service is an entirely different
matter altogether. My personal preference would be going with Ceramic
Coating Services instead of buying one and do it yourself. That’s
because a vehicle paint must go through a detailing process before the ceramic
coating application, which removes swirls and scratches from a vehicle’s paint.
‘Detailing’ is not a process you
can perform at home as it involves professional equipment and techniques. All
in all, it’s a risky thing to do at your place since it can damage the paint.
In India, you can find ceramic
coating services ranging from 10,000-90,000 rupees on average. Other services
can be added too for the car interior.
Detailing Devils provide great
vehicle care services and their services may cost 15000 rupees on average. You
can negotiate discounts if your bargaining spirits are on the shine.
Before investing your precious
money it is best to investigate a bit more about the services and the brand
you’re willing to get it from.
I’ve had my vehicle coated from
Detailing Devils and haven’t found any shortcomings yet. The rest is your
choice. Just make a list of nearby
coating studios, ask for prices, and get a demo if it is available and then and
only then take the final call.
