Traditional car wax has been a go-to for protecting paint for years. It offers a decent layer of protection against elements like moisture and light debris. However, during winter, its durability can be compromised, requiring frequent reapplication. Most waxes last 3-6 months when applied properly.

Battle of the Coatings: Which Protects Your Car Best in Winter?
Dec 18, 2023
As winter descends, our vehicles face a relentless onslaught from salt, ice, and harsh weather conditions. Protecting your car during this season is paramount, and choosing the right protection product can make all the difference. Let's dive into the world of winter protective coatings and find out which one stands strongest against the elements.
The Winter Coating Showdown
Winter paints a hostile environment for your vehicle's paintwork. From corrosive road salt to freezing temperatures, your car's exterior takes a beating. Luckily, several protective coatings are designed to shield your vehicle and maintain its luster in these harsh conditions.
Wax Coatings
Synthetic Sealants
Another contender in the coating arena is polymer sealants. These synthetic products boast good durability and chemical resistance, offering a middle ground between traditional wax and high-end ceramic coatings. They provide decent protection against winter elements but might not match the longevity of ceramics. They usually last 6-12 months
Ceramic Coatings
Enter the champion of modern vehicle protection: ceramic coatings. These advanced formulations create a hardened layer on your car's surface, providing exceptional resistance to chemicals and environmental damage. Ceramic coatings excel in repelling water, salt, and ice, maintaining your car's shine for extended years, not months.
