Can Ceramic Spray Be Used on Glass, Trim, and Wheels?

Most people know ceramic spray is great for paint—but it can actually do a lot more.

Tough As Shell is formulated to bond to a variety of surfaces, making it one of the most versatile products in your detailing arsenal.

✅ Glass: Invisible Shield + Water Repellent

Apply it to windshields and windows for:

  • ✔️ Water beading during rain or snow
  • ✔️ Easier bug, bird drop, and ice removal
  • ✔️ Less windshield wiper drag

Pro Tip: Use a glass-specific towel and avoid spraying directly onto the windshield—apply to a towel first, then buff on.

✅ Plastic Trim: Fade Protection + Revived Finish

Plastic and rubber trim fades and cracks with UV exposure. Ceramic spray locks in a deep, OEM-like look and protects against:

  • ☀️ Sun damage
  • 🧂 Road salt and grime
  • 💧 Water spotting and streaking

Use on mirror caps, window trim, grille inserts, and more. Unlike greasy dressings, Tough As Shell leaves a clean, dry-to-the-touch finish.

✅ Wheels: Brake Dust Barrier + Easier Cleaning

Your wheels take the brunt of winter and driving grime. Ceramic spray repels brake dust, salt, and road film. Apply to:

  • ✔️ Wheel faces and barrels
  • ✔️ Painted or powder-coated surfaces
  • ✔️ Brake calipers

With every wash, you’ll notice how easily grime rinses away—saving you time and scrubbing.

How to Apply to Non-Paint Surfaces

  1. Wash the surface with The Super Soaper
  2. Dry with a Massive Drying Towel
  3. Spray Tough As Shell onto a clean microfiber towel
  4. Wipe gently onto the surface
  5. Buff off any light residue if necessary
