Prep Your Car for Winter
Undoubtedly, you are becoming familiar with ceramic coatings. Here at CJ’s, we’ve partnered with Feynlab to offer you a selection of ceramic coating products to meet your specific needs. A question we hear a lot is, “what’s the difference between ceramic coatings and wax?” And along the same lines, “which is better to prepare my car for winter, wax or a ceramic coating?” In this post, we aim to help you answer those questions.
Hard Wax vs Spray Wax
Although hard wax takes longer to apply than spray wax (think Karate Kid), the protective layer lasts longer and is stronger. This is especially important during the winter. Hard wax creates a soft shell around your vehicle to protect it from damage, and needs to be applied every 3 months or so, more if you drive in especially harsh conditions.
Spray wax is quick to apply and very convenient. The application of spray wax is a great way to touch up the look of your car and bring out a nice glossy finish, but it doesn’t offer any protection. Spray wax is best used between applications of hard wax, this is so your vehicle always has the protective layer provided by the hard wax, but you don’t have to go full Karate Kid every couple of weeks.
If you are looking to go beyond the conventional, ceramic coatings offer unparalleled protection, durability, and longevity, with virtually no regular upkeep on your part.
Ceramic Coatings
In the last few years, ceramic coatings have provided a new standard for paint protection. Ceramic coatings form a molecular bond with your vehicle’s clear coat, meaning that a high-quality coating will last for YEARS. Let’s look at a couple of examples of Feynlab products to see what types of benefits are available.

If you are looking to go beyond the conventional, ceramic coatings offer unparalleled protection, durability, and longevity, with virtually no regular upkeep on your part.
