Caring for LPPF®
LPPF® is low-maintenance by design — no inspections required. A little care in the first days and regular hand washing keep it crystal clear for years.
- Hand wash with a pH-neutral car soap
- Use clean microfiber mitts and drying towels
- Rinse off bird droppings, bugs and tree sap promptly
- Let light scratches heal on their own
- Touch or cover the coating in the first 24 hours
- Use abrasive compounds or polishes
- Apply wax — it dulls gloss and water beading
- Use automatic car washes with brushes
- Try to fix deeper damage yourself — LPPF® is repairable
LPPF®’s reversible hydrogen bonds re-form across light scratches on their own. Light swirls and scratches disappear with heat.
How self-healing works →It won’t heal on its own and isn’t covered by the warranty, but LPPF® is 100% repairable. Don’t try to fix it yourself.
What the warranty covers →Caring for ceramic
Your 5-Year or 8-Year ceramic coating keeps water beading and gloss high with simple, gentle washing.
- Hand wash with a pH-neutral car soap
- Dry with a soft microfiber towel or air blower
- Rinse off bird droppings, bugs and sap promptly
- Wash out of direct sun when you can
- Let it get wet during the initial cure
- Apply wax — it dulls gloss and water beading
- Use abrasive compounds or polishes
- Use dish soap or harsh degreasers
- Let hard-water spots dry on the surface
Road film can build up and mask the coating. A careful hand wash usually brings the beading back.
Ceramic protects more than paint — give coated wheels and trim the same gentle wash.
The 5-step hand wash.
The same gentle routine works for both finishes.
