Protect Your Investment
When you invest in a System X® Ceramic Coating applied by a certified installer like Supreme Finish, you’re committing to long-lasting protection and enhanced gloss for your vehicle’s paint.
However, to ensure you’re fully covered and can take advantage of all the benefits, it’s crucial to register your ceramic coating warranty. Let’s discuss all of the benefits of registering your ceramic coating warranty.
Why Register Your Warranty?
If the coating begins to fail before the warranty period ends, you won’t have to worry about reapplication costs.
“Registering your warranty ensures that if something goes wrong, you can get a new coating for free in most cases,” says Kentrell Jackson, owner of Supreme Finish Auto Detailing.
Enhanced Resale Value
Your warranty is automatically reported to CarFax, which can boost your vehicle’s resale value. Potential buyers will see that your vehicle has been treated with a ceramic coating and is covered under warranty. This is one of the most valuable and important benefits of registering your ceramic coating warranty.
The warranty is transferable to the new owner, making your car even more attractive on the market.
Comprehensive Protection
System X® Ceramic Coating is designed to provide superior protection and durability. The coating shields your vehicle from various environmental contaminants and damage.
UV Fading
UV fading can be a problem in sunny climates like Raleigh. System X® coatings block UV rays, preserving your vehicle’s color.
Bird Dropping Etching
Acidic substances, such as bird droppings, can eat into unprotected paint. System X® provides a barrier, preventing permanent damage to your vehicle's surface.
Paint Swirls
The ceramic coating helps minimize the appearance of swirls and light scratches, keeping your car looking showroom ready.
Rock Chip Damage Reduction
While the ceramic coating won’t completely stop rock chips, it significantly reduces the severity of damage by absorbing the impact and allowing debris to slide off the surface, rather than causing direct damage to the clear coat.
Self-Cleaning Properties
One of the standout benefits of System X® Ceramic Coating is its self-cleaning properties. The coating’s slick surface allows water to easily rinse away dust, dirt, pollen, and other contaminants.
This hydrophobic effect reduces the need for frequent washing, but it’s still important to maintain your vehicle to keep the warranty valid.
As Kentrell explains, “Some of our customers hardly ever wash their cars because of how well the coating repels dirt. While the coating makes it easier to maintain your vehicle, we still recommend regular cleaning to keep it in top shape.”
Annual Inspection / Warranty Renewal
To keep your warranty valid, an annual inspection by Supreme Finish Auto Detailing or another certified System X® detailer is required. This inspection ensures the coating is performing correctly and catches any potential issues early.
At Supreme Finish, we conduct these inspections thoroughly to ensure your warranty remains intact. “We’ve never had to redo a claim because we make sure our customers understand how to care for their coating,” Kentrell shares.
Tips to Maintain Your Warranty
To ensure your coating lasts its full lifetime and remains covered under warranty, follow these aftercare tips:
Avoid Automatic Car Washes
Automated brushes can cause damage to your ceramic coating. Instead, opt for hand washing or a touchless wash to avoid scratches and swirls.Use pH-Neutral Cleaning Products
Harsh chemicals can degrade your coating over time. Always use pH-neutral soaps and cleaners to maintain the hydrophobic and self-cleaning properties of your ceramic coating. This is discussed further in our article on how to wash a car with ceramic coating.Schedule Regular Inspections
