Ceramic coating aftercare.
Care for your Marathon Ceramic Coating from installation through regular maintenance washing.
Save this page so you can come back whenever you need it.
Use caution during curing
Avoid rubbing the finish and parking beneath trees that shed sap. Remove bird droppings and other contamination promptly and gently; contact us if you need help during the no-wash period.
Hand wash with soft materials
Once washing is allowed, work in the shade with a pH-neutral soap and clean microfiber wash materials. Wash from the top down and use separate materials for the wheels.
Dry completely
Use a soft, clean microfiber drying towel and avoid aggressively wiping. Do not leave water to air-dry on the vehicle, to prevent water spotting.
Avoid any abrasive maintenance
Skip brush washes, polishing compounds and wax. Ask us about our silica spray sealant or schedule a yearly maintenance inspection with us.
