We honestly believe that Tesla paint protection in the form of a ceramic or graphene coating should be a mandatory application for brand new Tesla’s and of course, undergo a paint correction prior to the application should it be a secondhand purchase (we will explain more about this later on in this article).

As car detailing experts, we commonly deal with Tesla’s on a regular basis, both new and secondhand. And one thing that is common across all these models that we deal with, is the abundance of micro scratches evident across the paintwork. Yes, even brand-new cars come with imperfections during its delivery process across the sea, road etc and whilst under a car cover that could have been collecting dust underneath creating scratch-producing friction.

Investing in a Tesla paint protection as such, is an excellent way to armour up your car without any compromises. A ceramic or graphene coating is a liquid polymer that is applied to the exterior of a vehicle to protect its paint and enhance its colour depth appearance (gloss), for years. Upon curing under heat and time, this layer hardens forms a durable layer of glass-like protection that is resistant to UV rays, chemicals, and scratches. The coating is made of silicon dioxide, which is a natural material found in sand, quartz, and glass – particularly used in the army and industrial products for its protective properties. Furthermore, it creates a hydrophobic surface (just like protective waxes) that repels water and dirt, making it easier to clean and maintain your vehicle on an ongoing basis. 

Ceramic and graphene coatings are arguably one of the greatest innovations to enter the car care market, the secret sauce to keeping your looking brand new for many years.
