Does ceramic coating work on glass?

Yes, with a coating made for glass. Ceramic Pro Glass bonds to the windshield and side windows so rain beads and sheets off at speed, wipers chatter less, and bugs and water spots wipe away. It lasts about a year on the windshield and longer on side glass.

What it does

What it does not do

It does not stop rock chips or cracks; that is windshield protection film, from $799. It does not tint. And it does not last as long on the windshield as a paint coating lasts on paint, because wipers abrade it: expect about a year on the windshield, longer on side glass.

How it is applied

Glass is decontaminated, polished if it has water-spot etching, and coated by hand. Old wiper blades scratch a fresh coating; we recommend replacing them at the same time.

Cost

Ceramic Pro Glass is an add-on to any coating package, and it is included in the Full Body PPF offer, which coats the entire exterior including the glass at no extra charge.

What is ceramic coating?
Ceramic Pro 9H is our flagship heavy-duty, permanent protective coating. It has a glossy, hydrophobic finish that lets water and other liquids bead off the surface easily, protecting your paint from staining, UV damage, bugs, dirt, and debris. The protective finish not only guards the paint but makes washing incredibly easy — dirt and grime slide right off, and aggressive scrubbing isn’t required. Full answer →
How long does ceramic coating last?
A ceramic coating can last anywhere from 6 months to a lifetime. The longevity of a ceramic coating largely depends on the quality of the product used, the application process, and the care taken to maintain it. A high-quality, layerable coating will last a few years with proper maintenance. Check our Ceramic Pro Packages to discover what is the best option for your car. Full answer →
Ceramic coating vs wax: what is the difference?
Wax was the gold standard for over 50 years — it's inexpensive and adds a nice depth of shine, but you have to reapply it every one to two months. Ceramic coating creates a much tougher defense against what actually matters: UV damage, bug splatter, tree sap, oxidation, bird droppings, heat and harsh car-wash detergents. It delivers a high-gloss shine that doesn't fade, makes water bead off for low-maintenance cleaning, and lasts up to seven years — or a lifetime with proper maintenance. It comes down to your priorities and budget. Full answer →
Can I DIY a ceramic coating?
You can — but doing it right takes four crucial steps: decontaminate the paint, correct it, apply the coating, then level it after it flashes. You'll need an applicator sponge, at least two microfiber towels, and a clean, controlled environment. The key is an even coat with no streaks or high spots, worked in small sections. The biggest factor is prep: if you don't properly decontaminate and paint-correct first, the coating won't look right or perform as intended — which is exactly why most owners choose a professional install.
