Ceramic Pro ION is a two-component ceramic coating system that utilizes revolutionary ION Exchange Technology to fuse multiple coating layers into a single, durable, and robust protected surface. This coating technology increases the strength of the atomic bond within the two coatings, and the original substrate once applied.
The result is a ceramic coating that produces twice the durability, integrity, and longevity of traditional nanoceramic coatings.
