Ceramic Coating

Keep the shine. Make cleanup easier. Add protection. ♡

What ceramic coating does, what it doesn't do, what's covered, and which protection package makes sense for you — without making it complicated.

THE EASY EXPLANATION

What is ceramic coating?

Ceramic coating is a liquid polymer applied to your vehicle's exterior. Once applied, it bonds to the surface and creates a durable protective layer over the finish.

The big idea is simple: it adds another layer between your Subaru and the stuff it deals with every day — water, grime, sun exposure and environmental contaminants — while helping the exterior stay glossy and easier to clean.

WHY PEOPLE LOVE IT

The benefits of ceramic coating

Protection is the main event, but the easier cleanup and glossy finish are pretty nice bonuses.

💧

Water & grime

Hydrophobic properties help water bead off the surface and can make routine washing and cleanup easier.

☀️

UV exposure

Adds a protective barrier that helps defend the exterior finish from oxidation and fading associated with sun exposure.

🧪

Contaminants

Helps protect the surface from environmental contaminants such as bird droppings, road grime and other everyday messes.

✨

Glossy finish

Enhances the vehicle's shine while adding a durable layer of exterior protection.

GOOD TO KNOW

Protection — not armor.

Ceramic coating is great at what it's designed to do, but it's worth knowing what to expect.

✨ Helps resist everyday surface contamination

The coating creates a sacrificial protective layer over the exterior surfaces and helps make contaminants easier to remove.

💦 Makes maintenance easier

Its hydrophobic surface helps water and grime release more easily, so keeping the vehicle clean can take less effort.

🪨 It is not paint-protection film

Ceramic coating should not be expected to prevent rock chips, dents or deeper scratches from physical impact.

🧽 It still needs normal care

A coated vehicle still needs washing and proper exterior care. The coating helps protect the finish; it doesn't eliminate maintenance.
