2022 Dodge Charger Ceramic Coating Process!
2022 Dodge Charger Ceramic Coating Process in Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights
Our Copperas Cove/Killeen/Harker Heights area client was looking for options for ceramic coating his 2022 Dodge Charger to make it easier to clean, and quick work of bug guts. Did you know that bug guts, like bird poop, are acidic and can permanently etch a painted surface? With ceramic coating, it can still etch if left unattended, especially in the Central Texas sun during the summer – BUT – they are also easily removed. At Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings, we firmly believe that if we help make your 2022 Dodge Charger (or whatever your car may be!) easy to clean, you (and we) will be more likely to clean it. Everyone is busy, and many of us use our cars as daily drivers. Being able to easily remove contaminants means they are less likely to stay on the car long-term.
This 2022 Dodge Charger was no different, and so we installed ceramic coating on the painted surfaces, windshield (think of Rain X on steroids!), and wheel faces. The great thing about applying a ceramic coating to wheel faces (included in all of our major ceramic coating packages) is it also makes quick work of brake dust. That’s not just important for cleaning; brake dust let to sit and dwell can begin pitting and adhering to the wheel surface, causing permanent damage. Some of these new muscle cars that are incredibly heavy, like the 2022 Dodge Charger, generate a lot of brake dust. It’s not just heavy muscle cars, it’s many new cars. Brake dust is comprised of iron and metal particles and can embed and rust on your wheel. You will still get brake dust with ceramic coating, but it will be easier to clean!
