SB3 Coatings “Optic” is a one year ceramic coating for your vehicle’s glass surface, used primarily on the windshield, but just as effective as a ceramic coating on any of the glass surfaces. SB3 Coatings Optic one year ceramic coating is limited typically because of the friction caused by the vehicle’s wiper blades. Remember from our other videos that the only way to remove a ceramic coating is to polish or rub it off (that’s why we can’t take our vehicles through automatic car washes in Killeen, after we install clear bra/paint protection film, or ceramic coating).

SB3 Coatings Optic one year ceramic coating is one of the few multi-layer ceramic coatings SB3 offers, with SB3 Coatings Marine, Hyde, and Fiber being some other ones that require two or more layers of the same coating.

Installation Instructions

Here are the instructions for applying SB3 Coatings Optic one year glass ceramic coating:

Clean or prepare the surface that you will be applying SB3 Coatings Optic to. We like to use waterless wash to clean the windshield followed by SB3 Coatings Ready surface panel prep.
Load applicator with SB3 Coatings Optic and apply to windshield. Applying in an opposite manner as cleaning the inside of the windshield (such as top to bottom outside and left to right inside) will allow you to determine if streaks are on the inside or outside.
Wait one minute to flash, and level/remove/wipe the ceramic coating.
Wait five minutes between layers of SB3 Optic one year glass ceramic coating.
Repeat steps 2-3, using the same methods, flash times, etc for the ceramic coating.
Use the remaining dampness or remaining ceramic coating product leftover on the applicator pad, and wipe the bottom of the wiper blades.
Leave the wiper blades up for an additional 15-20 minutes before setting down.

Enjoy how easy it is to remove bugs and other contaminants from the surface after applying SB3 Coatings Optic on the glass!

2011 Cadillac CTS-V Carbon Fiber Hood Polish & Ceramic Coating Near Temple, TX

By Matthew Jones • March 7, 2026

2011 Cadillac CTS-V Carbon Fiber Hood Polish & Ceramic Coating Near Temple, TX When a 2011 Cadillac CTS-V rolled into our shop at Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings, located near Temple, TX , it already had something most cars never get: serious horsepower upgrades and a cam that made the whole building rumble when it fired up. But despite all the performance under the hood, the carbon fiber hood told a different story. It had just been freshly painted. Before that, it had been wrapped in blue vinyl, and once the vinyl came off, the black paint underneath showed heavy swirl marks and polishing haze . Carbon fiber panels—especially glossy ones—can look incredible… but they are brutally honest. Every imperfection shows. This job quickly turned into a great example of why proper paint correction and polishing matter before installing a ceramic coating.
