Q&A
Everything you need to know about the Platinum Rapid Ceramic Paint Sealant. From application tips to aftercare, RACCOONMADE has got you covered.
01. Product Knowledge
Traditional carnauba wax sits on top of your paint and melts away in heat. The RACCOONMADE Platinum Rapid Ceramic Paint Sealant utilizes an advanced silicone-based composite formula to create a dense. Ceramic Coating is lighter and stronger than steel. When applied, it bonds to your clear coat to create a "Diamond-Hard" shield that resists UV rays, heat, and chemicals for months, not weeks.
The RACCOONMADE formula is highly concentrated—a little goes a long way!
- 8.28fl oz (245ml): Enough for 3-5 standard sedans.
- 16.9fl oz (500ml): Enough for 6-10 vehicles or bigger trucks.
The bottle has a shelf life of 3 years if stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Make sure the nozzle is closed tightly after use.
02. Preparation & Application
For the absolute best durability? Yes. Using a clay bar removes embedded contaminants (road grit), allowing the RACCOONMADE Platinum Rapid Ceramic Paint Sealant to bond directly to the paint. However, it is not required. You can simply wash your car, dry it, and apply the spray for a fantastic shine and protection.
Yes! This is an "All-Rounder" formula.
- Glass: Acts as a rain repellent for windshields.
- Interior: Safe for dashboard plastics and trim (provides UV protection).
- PPF/Vinyl Wraps: safe for all wraps, including Matte and Satin finishes. It protects the vinyl from sun fading.
- Wheels: Helps prevent brake dust from sticking.
No. Surface temperature matters. Applying on a hot hood causes the product to dry instantly, leading to streaks. Always apply in the shade or on a cool surface.
03. Curing & Aftercare
The RACCOONMADE Platinum Rapid Ceramic Paint Sealant needs 12+ hours to fully harden and form a stable layer. If it rains within 12 hours: Don't panic. Just dry the car with a clean microfiber towel as soon as the rain stops to prevent water spots from forming while the coating is still soft.
Yes, layering adds depth and protection! We recommend waiting 1 hour between coats to allow the first layer to level out.
Because RACCOONMADE bonds strongly, it won't wash off with water. To strip the coating, you will need to use a standard polishing compound or a high-alkaline strip wash.
🧽 Maintenance Guide: Choosing the Right Soap
To ensure your "12+ Month" protection holds up, avoiding harsh chemicals is key. Here is how to choose your soap:
| Soap / Method | Verdict | Why? |
|---|---|---|
| pH Neutral Shampoo (e.g., Car specific soaps) | ✅ Best | Gentle formula cleans dirt without stripping the coating. Maximizes longevity. |
| Dish Soap (e.g., Dawn, Palmolive) | ❌ Avoid | Dish soap is a degreaser. It will strip your wax/coating and dry out your rubber seals. |
| Touchless Car Wash (Automatic Tunnel) | ⚠️ Caution | They use strong acids to clean quickly. Occasional use is fine, but frequent use will shorten the coating's life. |
| Waterless Wash (Spray on, Wipe off) | ✅ Safe | Perfect for light dust or maintaining the shine between heavy washes. |
