Shine Zilla™ Ceramic Armor is superior to traditional waxes and sealants, and once applied, you will never need to wax again.
Q: How should I prepare my vehicle for Shine Zilla™ Ceramic Armor application?
A: Any polishing or paint correction should be completed before applying Shine Zilla™ Ceramic Armor.

A: There are many variables that determine the lifetime of a nano ceramic coating including how often you drive, the environment you live in, how often you wash your car, and where you store it. For example, if you live in a harsh climate and park your vehicle outside, your coating may not last as long as a vehicle that is mainly stored indoors in a mild climate.
