Does Ceramic Spray Protect Against UV Damage?
Absolutely. One of the biggest benefits of ceramic spray is its ability to block harmful UV rays that break down paint, plastics, and trim over time.
Tough As Shell adds an invisible layer of defense that keeps your vehicle looking better, longer—especially during hot, sunny months.
How UV Damage Happens
- ☀️ Prolonged sunlight breaks down clear coat and paint pigments
- ☀️ Oxidation causes dullness, fading, and loss of gloss
- ☀️ Trim and rubber surfaces dry out and crack without protection
How Ceramic Spray Helps
- ✅ Reflects UV rays to reduce surface heat and degradation
- ✅ Slows oxidation and keeps paint vibrant
- ✅ Protects plastic trim and rubber seals from drying and fading
Where to Apply for UV Defense
- Painted surfaces: hood, roof, doors, bumpers
- Trim and moldings: plastic and rubber areas exposed to sunlight
- Wheels and calipers: especially in hot climates
Best Practices for UV Protection
- Wash regularly with The Super Soaper
- Dry with a Massive Drying Towel to prevent water spots
- Apply Tough As Shell every 4–6 weeks for constant UV coverage
Bonus Tip
For an even more durable layer of UV protection, you can layer Tough As Shell or combine it with regular use of All Dressed Up on exterior plastics and rubber trim.
