Can You Use Ceramic Spray on Glass, Trim, and Chrome?
If you thought ceramic spray was only for paint, you’re missing out. Products like Tough As Shell are designed for more than just body panels—and when used correctly, they can protect and enhance glass, trim, and even chrome.
1. Ceramic Spray on Glass
Yes—ceramic spray works great on exterior glass. It improves water beading, repels dirt, and makes bugs and bird droppings easier to remove.
Application tip: Spray directly onto a microfiber towel and wipe on, then follow with a clean towel to buff clear. Avoid using on interior glass to prevent streaking or glare.
2. Ceramic Spray on Trim
Black plastic trim is notorious for fading. Ceramic spray helps restore and protect trim with a light satin finish—not greasy or shiny.
It also prevents future UV damage and keeps trim looking fresh after washes.
3. Ceramic Spray on Chrome
Ceramic spray creates a slick layer on chrome surfaces like emblems, window surrounds, and wheels. This adds shine, helps resist pitting, and makes cleanup easier.
Pro tip: Use a separate towel for metal to avoid cross-contaminating your paint towels with brake dust or grime.
