Difference between 3, 5, 7 Year Coating

What’s the Differences Between 3-Year, 5-Year, and 7-Year Ceramic Coatings?

How do you choose which level of coating is best for your vehicle?

At Clean Car Custom Detail, we provide options with varying durability—3-year, 5-year, and 7-year coatings—each designed to meet different driver’s protection goals.

Let’s dive into how these coatings differ, focusing on composition and benefits.

3-Year Ceramic Coating

Composition

Our 3-year ceramic coating is formulated with a balanced concentration of silicon dioxide (SiO₂) particles suspended in a durable resin. Think of it like a jello mold with fruit suspended inside; here, the ceramic particles are embedded in the resin to create a solid, protective layer over your vehicle’s paint.

Durability and Benefits
While it has the lowest SiO₂ concentration of our coatings, the 3-year coating still offers substantial protection from UV rays, road grime, and environmental contaminants. Ideal for those looking for dependable protection without a long-term commitment, it delivers a noticeable improvement in gloss and water repellency, making it easy to clean while maintaining a polished look.

5-Year Ceramic Coating

Composition

With a higher concentration of SiO₂, our 5-year ceramic coating offers a thicker and more resilient protective layer compared to the 3-year option. This enhanced concentration provides additional strength in the resin, resulting in improved durability and resistance to common contaminants and weathering.

Durability and Benefits
The added SiO₂ content in our 5-year coating offers superior protection against harsher environmental factors, making it a perfect choice for those who regularly drive or park outdoors. It also has a heightened water-repellent effect, which helps prevent dirt, mud, and other residues from sticking to the surface, giving your vehicle a cleaner look with less maintenance.

7-Year Graphene Coating

Composition
Our 7-year coating takes protection to the next level with an advanced graphene-infused formula. Graphene is a carbon-based material known for its exceptional strength, flexibility, and conductivity. When infused in our resin, graphene forms an incredibly durable and slick coating that resists heat, contaminants, and UV damage better than traditional ceramic coatings.

Durability and Benefits
Graphene’s unique properties make this our longest-lasting and highest-performing coating. It has superior anti-static and anti-corrosive properties, meaning it actively resists dust accumulation and corrosion. Graphene also improves the coating’s thermal regulation, reducing water spotting and giving the paint a deep, rich gloss. For those who want unmatched resilience and long-term protection, the 7-year graphene coating is the ultimate choice, ensuring your vehicle looks as good as new, year after year.

Choosing the Right Coating for Your Vehicle

Each of our coatings offers unique benefits, whether you’re looking for a short-term shine, a balance between durability and value, or maximum, advanced protection. At Clean Car Custom Detail, we’re here to help you find the coating that best matches your lifestyle and keeps your vehicle looking its best for years to come.

The longer you keep your cars the more durable coating we recommend. If you drive in extreme conditions or simply want the very best for your car a stronger coating is the right.

Now you know why the coatings have different rating durability. But do you know what kind of protection your car can have with a coating? If you're seriously considering a coating you should know all the benefits. Read here.
