What is Graphene Coating? Here’s Everything You Must Know

What is Graphene Coating Here’s everything you must know

With heightened awareness of vehicle maintenance and appearance, car owners are looking for more durable, long-lasting, and advanced ways of protecting their investments. New in the game of automotive surface protection is graphene coating — the next generation of vehicle coatings that is more effective, slicker, and stronger than ceramic.

So if you’re in Ahmedabad and are searching for the best graphene coating services, then you’re in the right place! Autoism India is one of the few detailing studios in India offering this technology.

What is Graphene Coating?

Graphene coating is a protective coating with resin that is made from graphene. Graphene is a single layer of carbon atoms arranged in a hexagonal lattice. It is the thinnest, lightest, and strongest material ever discovered — 200 times stronger than steel — and has great thermal, chemical, and electrical conductivity.

Graphene coating for cars creates a layer that you can barely see as it is nanoscopic, completely protecting what is underneath, which is the paint. When you apply graphene coatings to a car’s exterior, you are creating durable, tough protection from things in the environment that break down the paint. It acts as a shield from UV rays, bird droppings, tree sap, acid rain, water spots, and fine scratches, while laying down an impressive depth and gloss to your paint layer.

Advantages of Graphene Coating

By selecting graphene coating for your car, you receive several benefits over traditional car protection:

1. Excellent Gloss and Shine

Graphene adds to your car’s aesthetics with a deep glass-like finish that is hard to ignore.

2. Great Durability

Ceramic coatings typically last 2 to 5 years, while graphene coatings can last anywhere from 5 to 7 years with proper maintenance.

3. Water Spot and Chemical Resistance

Graphene cuts down on the amount of water spots, and bird droppings can be removed easily because of its heat-dissipating properties.

4. UV Protection

Graphene creates a barrier that reflects UV rays, which oxidizes and fades paint.

5. Self-Cleaning Effects

Thanks to its slick, hydrophobic nature, water beads off easily, carrying dust and grime along with it.

Advantages of Graphene Coating Over Ceramic Coating

Although ceramic coatings have been the go-to solution for years, graphene coating is proving to be a smarter upgrade:

Step-by-Step Graphene Coating Process

Washing & Decontamination

Thoroughly wash the car and remove contaminants using foam, iron remover, and clay bar.

Paint Correction

A polish of the surface is completed to remove swirls, scratches, and oxidation to provide a smooth finish.

Surface Preparation

Prior to coating, a wipe down with isopropyl alcohol removes oils or residue and will allow for proper bonding of the coating.

Graphene Coating Application

Apply graphene coating panel by panel on a basic applicator block, then after each panel, buff lightly with a microfiber towel.

Curing

The coating needs time to go through the curing process (5 hours – 7 hours), but if you have access to infrared lamps, you can speed up the curing process.

Final Inspection

Make sure that you do not have any high spots or streaks, and that there is a nice even glossy finish.

Graphene Coating Price

Prices for graphene coating will depend on many factors, including vehicle size, paint condition, and the number of layers applied. Here is a rough indication of what to expect:

  • Hatchbacks – ₹15,000 to ₹18,000 
  • Sedans – ₹20,000 to ₹25,000 
  • SUVs – ₹25,000 to ₹35,000+

2. How long does a graphene coating last?

When applied and cleaned correctly, graphene coatings can last 5 to 7 years.

3. Does graphene coating provide scratch resistance? 

It protects against light scratches and swirl marks, but not against heavy scratches from high impact. 

4. Can a graphene coating be put over an old ceramic coating? 

No, this is not recommended. The old coating needs to be stripped for graphene to bond properly. 

5. Where can I find the best graphene coating in Ahmedabad? 

Autoism India offers professional graphene coating for cars as well as a complete aftercare program.
