Ceramic Pro Top Coat
An entry-level standalone nanoceramic barrier or a top coating used in combination with Ceramic Pro 9H. Offers superhydrophobic, super slick, and high-gloss protection that maximizes the enhancement of the original surface.
Ceramic Pro Top Coat is a nano-ceramic finishing coating designed for application over compatible Ceramic Pro protective coatings. It forms a clear hydrophobic surface layer that reduces contaminant adhesion, improves surface slickness, enhances gloss, and supports easier cleaning and maintenance. The coating serves as the final functional layer of the protection system, primarily enhancing hydrophobic and surface-repellent performance.

The application and curing times stated in this document are provided as reference values based on an ambient temperature of 25 °C, 50% relative humidity, and the typical coating thickness specified in this TDS. Actual timing may vary depending on substrate type and absorbency, application method, applied product quantity, final layer thickness after leveling, environmental conditions, and installer technique. The stated values should therefore be used as a technical reference rather than absolute process limits. During application, coating behavior should be observed and timing adjusted where necessary to achieve the intended result.
