Ceramic coating in Leawood

In Leawood a coating is chemical armor more than it is gloss, and the two things it is defending against are sap and sprinklers.

Why here specifically

What coating is up against in Leawood.

Irrigation is the one nobody expects. Leawood runs a lot of lawn systems, and the overspray that lands on a car parked nearby is hard water. It dries into mineral deposits, and if those sit in the sun they etch the clear coat exactly like sap does. A coating does not stop the water landing, but it stops the minerals bonding, which turns a permanent problem into something a rinse removes.

Sap is the other half. Under mature trees, the difference a coating makes is measured in how long you have to react. On bare clear coat, sap can start etching within a couple of hot days. On a coated panel, it sits on the coating instead and lifts off later without taking anything with it.

Given how much dark paint there is here, coating and correction usually get booked together. Correction makes the paint right, the coating keeps it that way, and doing them in the other order or separately means paying to polish twice.

Leawood questions

Asked and answered.

More on the Leawood page.

Will a coating stop hard water spots?

It stops them etching, which is the part that matters. You will still see spots after the sprinklers hit the car. The difference is that on a coated panel they wipe off, and on bare clear coat left in the sun they can etch in permanently.

How long does a five year coating really last here?

Five years is the product rating under good maintenance, not a guarantee against a car parked under a sap heavy tree and washed in a tunnel. Maintained properly it holds for years. Neglected, expect noticeably less, and I would rather set that expectation now.
