XPEL FUSION Ceramic Coating is a liquid polymer that chemically bonds with your vehicle’s factory paint. It creates a long-lasting, hydrophobic shield that protects against UV rays, chemical stains, and environmental contaminants—all while giving your vehicle a brilliant gloss.
Key Benefits of Ceramic Coating:
Long-Lasting Protection: Durable finish that lasts 2–5 years with proper care.
Hydrophobic Properties: Repels water, dirt, and road grime, making cleaning easier.
UV Protection: Shields paint from sun damage and oxidation.
Enhanced Gloss: Deepens paint color and gives a showroom shine.
XPEL Paint Protection Film (PPF) is a clear, high-performance urethane film applied to your vehicle’s exterior surfaces. Designed to absorb impact, it protects against rock chips, scratches, road debris, and more—while remaining virtually invisible.
Key Benefits of PPF:
Physical Protection: Shields paint from scratches, chips, and abrasions.
Self-Healing Properties: Minor scratches disappear with heat exposure.
Invisible Finish: Maintains your vehicle’s original color and finish.
Extended Durability: Lasts up to 10 years with proper maintenance.

When to Choose Ceramic Coating
If your main goals are easier maintenance, UV protection, and enhancing your car’s shine, Ceramic Coating is the way to go.
You want a high-gloss finish and color enhancement.
You’re looking for protection against environmental damage like sap and bird droppings.
You want to reduce how often you need to wash your car.
When to Choose PPF
For drivers who want to protect against physical wear and tear, especially in high-impact areas, PPF is the best solution.
You frequently drive on highways or gravel roads.
You want maximum protection against chips and scratches.
You prefer long-term, low-maintenance paint protection.
Combining Ceramic Coating and PPF for Ultimate Protection
Many Oneida drivers choose to use both for the best of both worlds: apply PPF on high-impact zones (like the hood and bumper), and coat the rest of the vehicle with XPEL FUSION Ceramic Coating. This dual approach maximizes protection, durability, and appearance.
