We do not rely on hardness figures, and while a slight increase in hardness over the original paint can be expected, what we aim for is the look of the film. Protection is a side benefit of that.

Inorganic films tend to hold up well against organic soiling such as oil, but are weaker against inorganic deposits such as water spots and silica scale.

This update was a matter of \"addition and subtraction\": we adjusted a few percent of the formula so that the carbon nanotubes could work effectively.

Ceramic coating is not ceramic.\" Glass and ceramic are completely inorganic. Inorganic materials tend to be strong against organic dirt such as oil, but weak against inorganic dirt such as water spots and silica scale, just like window glass or toilet porcelain. A car with an organic wax has a shorter absolute lifespan, but can hold up better against inorganic dirt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eAs long as water contains inorganic substances such as calcium and potassium, water spots can form on any coating. We believe a good coating is one that does not bite into the paint, and that can be easily removed and maintained with our ANTI-AGING chemicals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e96% active ingredients\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe main component is a siloxane resin made from alkoxysiloxane and alkoxysilane.

Because it has no water-repellent additives (modified silicone, fluorine), the film is hydrophobic rather than water-repellent. The finish is a natural gloss, as if a clear layer had been added.
