Ceramic coating or wax — which to choose?

Paint protection is key to keeping a car in great shape. The choice is usually between wax and a ceramic coating. Here are the differences.

Wax — quick, cheap protection

Wax adds gloss and protects the paint for a few weeks to a few months. It is cheap and easy to apply but needs frequent renewal.

Ceramic coating — durability for years

Ceramic forms a hard, hydrophobic layer protecting the paint for 2 to 5 years. It gives a strong water-beading effect, makes washing easier and protects better from UV and contaminants.

Which to choose

• Wax — if you want low cost and a quick effect
• Ceramic — if you want long-lasting protection and less washing
• Ceramic works best after paint correction
