FEYNLAB THE ORIGINAL CERAMIC COATING

In nature, you may have heard of the Lotus Effect. The lotus effect refers to self-cleaning properties that are a result of ultra-hydrophobicity as exhibited by the leaves of Nelumbo, the lotus flower. Dirt particles are picked up by water droplets due to the micro and nanoscopic architecture on the surface, which minimizes the droplet’s adhesion to that surface. Sound familiar?

Feynlab was inspired by this amazing show put on by nature and used this inspiration to recreate these properties in a nano ceramic coating that can produce similar hydrophobics on most any surface it is applied to.

When applied to the paint of a vehicle, these hydrophobics perform just as they do in nature, with the water beads encapsulating dirt, helping to remove it as it rolls off the surface. This, in turn, keeps that surface cleaner for longer, with its “self-cleaning” effect, and makes maintenance easier.

HYDROPHOBIC

The Original Ceramic by Feynlab has one of the highest water contact angles in the industry, making it super-hydrophobic, which helps to protect your car from the contaminants commonly found in water. This property provides your car paint with a permanent layer of protection by forming a chemical bond with it, which causes it to repel not only water, but other elements such as oils, fallout, dirt, mud, road grime, and other build-ups from daily use of the vehicle. This makes your car surface much easier to clean and maintain, as these elements are not able to bond to the surface through the coating. You also get that super cool water beading effect, which is a plus!

SELF CLEANING

If washing your vehicle every time it gets nasty dirt and grime sticking to the surface hurts your arms and wears you out, then THE ORIGINAL CERAMIC is a product that will help you out! It will save you time, arm and back pain, AND money! This DIY ceramic coating has such a high-water contact angle that spraying the surface with water will cause the dirt to be encapsulated and rolled off the surface! (If maintained properly and as instructed) Did we mention the satisfaction you get from watching the dirt just roll off the paint?

APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS

1. Properly Prep vehicle by washing with Feynlab Pure Wash or Feynlab Pure Rinseless
2. Clay and Paint Correct surface if necessary
3. When vehicle is ready to coat, make sure it is located in a well-lit, well-ventilated area that is between 50°F – 85°F (10°C – 30°C).
4. BEFORE COATING – Shake the bottle VIGOROUSLY for one minute. Then, apply enough THE ORIGINAL CERAMIC to a microfiber sponge applicator to fully cover a single panel such as a door or half a hood.
5. Begin by making a “+” (plus) sign in the middle of the panel and follow that with a picture frame around the area you are coating. Next, fill in the remaining panel in straight lines from left to right and then cross-hatch up and down, making sure to create a level layer with even coverage.
6. Allow the coating to sit on the panel until about 75% dry, or until you see “rainbows”, similar to an oil sheen on water. This is a good indicator you are ready to move on to the next step.
7. Once you are ready to move to the next step, use a clean microfiber towel (edgeless is recommended) and remove the remaining 25% of the unevaporated coating. Use a second clean microfiber towel to wipe clear if needed. You will begin to feel the towel glide easier and easier across the surface as the product is completely removed.
8. Repeat the above process panel by panel (or multiple panels if your conditions allow) until the entire vehicle is coated.
9. One layer of THE ORIGINAL CERAMIC is sufficient to achieve the one-year warranty, but additional layers may be applied to areas where additional protection is desired, such as leading edges, hoods, etc. Wait at least one hour between layers, but no more than 3 hours.
