The Best Soap for Ceramic-Coated Cars
You paid for a ceramic coating—don’t ruin it with the wrong soap. Here’s how to wash your coated car the right way with the best soap designed for the job.
Why Ceramic Coatings Need Special Soap
Ceramic coatings create a hard, slick, hydrophobic layer over your paint. But using harsh soaps or degreasers can:
- ❌ Break down hydrophobic properties
- ❌ Dull the finish
- ❌ Strip protective layers like toppers or sprays
To preserve your coating, you need a soap that’s strong on dirt—but gentle on the surface.
What to Look For in a Soap for Coated Cars
- pH-balanced – Safe for coatings and waxes
- High foaming – Foam helps lift dirt off without contact
- No added gloss agents or waxes – These can block beading or buildup over time
- Safe for foam cannons – Better coverage, safer technique
