Ceramic Coatings

Cleaning and Reccomended Care

  • Regular hand washing car (if so desired) with soap and water is absolutely fine.

  • Touch-less car washes only. Never use a car wash with brushes!

  • Never select the “spray wax” option.

  • Never use dish detergent

  • Avoid high volume brush style car washes, and high PH detergent style cleaners.

  • Avoid washing in direct sunlight to minimize streaking and water spotting.

  • Wash from the top down leaving the dirtiest sections for last to avoid cross contamination.
    Use separate wash buckets when necessary.

Spot Removal

  • Never use aggressive products to polish the coating or remove surface contamination.

  • Never use excessive force to remove spots.

  • Bird droppings, tar, sap, etc. should be removed as soon as possible to avoid temporary staining or hardening on the coating. Any staining left behind from bird droppings will break down over a few days without affecting the coating.

Paint Protection Film

Cleaning 

  • Regular hand washing car (if so desired) with soap and water is absolutely fine.

  • Touch-less car washes only. Never use a car wash with brushes! Never select the “spray wax” option.

  • We do not recommend using pressure washer or car washes that use handheld pressure washers. If such a car wash is used, inform wash employees that the car has paint protection film. To avoid lifting the paint protection film the distance from the pressure washer nozzle to the film surface should be at least 45cm (1.5ft)

  • Waxing the glossy Legend Prime with non-abrasive car wax is recommended at minimum 2 times per year. Applying was to your LEGEND Prime will help retain its pristine glossy look. When waxing

  • LEGEND Prime Matte use only the waxes recommended for matte surfaces.

Removing Bugs

  • Insects can be removed from LEGEND paint protection surface using regular car shampoo and a sponge. Alternatively, bug and tar removing shampoos can be used. In difficult cases soaking the surface for 15-20 minutes with bug removing shampoo may be needed.

Recommended Care

  • To remove dirt and excess wax that may collect at the edge of the film use isopropyl alcohol and a microfiber wipe to clean along the edges.

  • To avoid film staining, clean the bird droppings, bugs and visible contaminates from the car on a regular basis.

  • LEGEND paint protection film contains a unique topcoat protecting it from staining and discoloration. However, if cleaning and care instructions are ignored or if the film was exposed to extremely staining chemicals a slight discoloration may occur.

  • To recover the original clear appearance, use mild abrasive wax/polishing compound to the surface until the stain is not visible. We do not recommend repeating the use of abrasive wax/polishing more often than once every two years as it will eventually remove the topcoat from the film. Only polish the vehicle with abrasive compounds when absolutely necessary.
