This article will lay out many reasons to use these SIO2 car care products and some of the dangerous pitfalls you face as a car enthusiast who wants to take pride in detailing their own vehicle.

You should look for a do it yourself ceramic coating for cars with at least 12 to 15% SIO2. The average spray currently being sold online contains less than 5%. It is the amount of ceramic in a product that is going to help seal and protect your paint and other finishes from UV, light scratches, bird droppings, rain and other environmental effects. The higher the amount of ceramic, the possible greater the protection will be.
