Detailing your car at home is easy with the right supplies and steps. Start with a thorough exterior wash, clay bar treatment, polish, and wax for a glossy, protected finish. Then, move to the interior: vacuum, clean upholstery, wipe down surfaces, and clean windows. Use high-quality microfiber towels and take your time for the best results. Regular detailing keeps your car clean, fresh, and well-maintained.

Ceramic coatings effectively protect car paint by offering hydrophobic properties, UV protection, and resistance to contaminants and minor scratches. They make cleaning easier and help maintain a car's appearance. However, they don't prevent all scratches, eliminate maintenance, or replace paint protection film. Their performance depends on product quality, application, and ongoing care.
