A ceramic coating is a semi-permanent protective layer applied to a vehicle’s exterior, providing protection against spills, stains, and UV damage. It is an integral component of modern vehicle care, offering a blend of protection, beauty, and practicality. Ceramic coatings are composed of silica and titanium dioxide, which form a protective shell that protects the interior surfaces from blemishes. They can be applied to paintwork on a vehicle or other exterior and interior surfaces, such as vinyl, rubber, and plastic.
A ceramic coating is a product of advanced nanotechnology, consisting of a liquid polymer that forms a chemical bond with the surface at a molecular level when applied to the interior of a car. This bonding process creates a seamless, protective layer over the interior surfaces of the vehicle. The best interior car ceramic coating for cars with stains, spills, UV damage, and everyday wear is HydroShield and HydroInterior.
These coatings are hydrophobic and create protective layers that are easy to clean and resistant to any stains. Ethos Leather and Interior Ceramic Coating uses a specialized SiO2 formula to create a durable, hydrophobic barrier that protects against UV rays, stains, and other harmful elements.
In conclusion, ceramic coatings are an essential part of modern vehicle care, providing protection, beauty, and practicality. They are typically applied to the paintwork on a vehicle, but can also be applied to other exterior and interior surfaces.

I really like how you both have applied this product and verbally discussed it as you went along sharing vital application points along the way. Kudos! I just want to see how hydrophobic it is incase of a spill. Secondly, the leather bolsters can they be layered? Say, if i wait an hour between each layer will it improve the level of protection from abrasion? Since its so cost effective, i would plan on coating the higher contact points and areas more frequently, so in your estimation for a car that does 6000miles a year (not much at all) would you say every season for those high abrasion areas be a good plan? Less or more maybe?
I just recently started perusal these detailing articles, and in this short period of time, l have already watched hours and hours of your DIY articles, and l have learned so much. It is not only educational but also very entertaining. What makes me stick around, apart from your obvious knowledge about the subject, is the fun factor you guys bring to your articles. You two fit as well together as Penut Butter and Jelli or Bacon and Eggs, and that is one of the reasons why l enjoy your website so much. I have decided to use your product, but now l just have to find out if I can get your product in Vanvouver Canada or if l have to order it online 😮 Thanks for sharing all your knowledge 😊
I never would have thought of using panel prep here but it makes sense so kudos. Interior ceramic to me looks very forgiving. I notice Yvan applies a fair amount to the applicator as he goes and it really lasts. But it levels very easily. Something I tell everyone with ceramic is that the better you maintain it the longer it lasts. And for the bottle size its phenomenal. Last thing, I like that you relate to us, you have children and families and you stand with your brand. So I’ll say 100% thank Nick later lol and definitely invest in the Interior ceramic, it pays itself off after the first application
Wow! My order arrived yesterday, applied it on carpet, rubber mats, doors, vegan leather and every nook and cranny on the Interior of my brand New Tesla Model Y black interior. Super easy to apply and level the product. Phenomenal product, can’t wait to get my detailer to do a maintenance wash and see for himself how awesome the product is. Might even hook him up with a bottle. Great job guys, love perusal your articles
Really great article guys!! I’ve been searching for ceramic options since I’ll be taking delivery on a 2024 C8 Corvette shortly. Between you and Pan The Organizer I’m convinced that your product line is for me. Question……Following the interior ceramic application, what maintenance regiment on a regular basis, i.e. cleaning, etc do you recommend? Thanx Dr Bob
how long will ceramic gloss and quick beads last? and how many wash’s will they hold up to. i’ve tried many sealants from companies and when it rains it the sealants will just take a big hit and have flat water behavior and will get basically removed with a PH neutral soap. hawaii definitely puts products to the test. thank you!!
Hey DIY Detail! I saw the Interior Ceramic on your article with Pan the Organizer. Just wondering if this would be safe to use on mid-2000’s Porsche trim (soft-touch paint that’s super sensitive to scratches and chemicals)? My dealership just dissolved the paint on the steering wheel multi function buttons by trying to clean them after service. 🤦♀️ Not sure what they used, but I’ve only used a dry or slightly damp microfiber myself. They’ve ordered me a new one. Also, would your either the Panel Prep or Rinseless be safe for cleaning the trim? Thanks in advance for your time and expertise!
I have a Bronco Sport Outerbanks being built tomorrow December 19th and those seats have three types of materials on the seats. I originally bought this product for these seats but I had to try it out first. This is one of those rare products which hits way above its weight. I have used this product on several vehicles and it is very consistent. For the next maintenance clean DIY Rinseless is all you need before laying down further protection with DIY interior detailer. The interior cleaner smells great too in my opinion.
Great article, exactly what I was looking for! Just bought a new car that I will be applying your interior ceramic coating to. Quick question, I wash my cars roughly about once a week, and polish/wax twice a year. Ideally I would only like to apply the interior ceramic no more than twice year. What are your recommendations for maintenance cleanings without eroding the ceramic protection in between the applications. BTW, I will probably article me doing this on my website. Thanks!!
Hi Guys, thank you for the post. What is the least aggressive option? Panel prep or rinseless? Also, once in a while you mention leaving tips. I found a very thin foam and microfiber circular pad. I used to apply cleaner and protectant with something just like you are using. I am in no way saying I am right, and I have never done ceramic on an interior (just ordered) but have found the applicator (the circular one mentioned) to be very helpful in tight spots. Also helpful with not squeezing out product when at a pincpoint like where the windshield meets the dashboard. I don’t know how to post just a picture here but will find some way of showing you what I’m referring to. I just like something as thin as possible with interiors to be in control of application without squeezing out too much. You mentiond highspots, so I assume that can happen even with the interior ceramic. I’m looking forward to applying it to my new car. Of course before I sell someone on it.
Two jeep related questions 1. What do I carry with me for interior bird bombs? Waterless? Diluted rinseless? 2. I used interior ceramic coating on all the plastic that is only exposed when the roof is off. After I did it I was thinking maybe I should have used an exterior product. What’s the best thing to use?
I have a question, I may have missed this in the comments, but, I have a 2017 gmc sierra and I noticed that the article in titled NEW CAR, but is the prep and application process the same and if not what should be done with an older vehicle that still looks good since I take care of it and has no cracking, but I would like to still keep it protected. also, interior is leather (if there is such a thing now a days) and I know from a lot of articles people say they come with a coating already applied from the factory that makes the material, how does this effect how you treat it with your product. thanks a bunch for the education over the years from both of you, I have learned a lot since my 20 year gap of being out of the business.
