Coatings and surface care

AVP

Use according to the work stage

AVP uses Nanolex for ceramic preparation, pre-cleaning, ceramic coating, detailing finish, wheel and interior cleaning, as well as system comparisons. Hydrophobicity, durability, material compatibility, process stability, application and repeatability are assessed.

Process

Preparation, treatment, aftercare

Cleaner, polish and protection must suit the material and the preceding and following work stages.

Frequently asked questions

Questions about Nanolex

How do Nanolex Si3D and Si3D HD differ?

Both are ceramic protection systems with different positioning and application. AVP selects according to paint condition, vehicle use, desired durability and maintenance plan and follows the conditions of the chosen system during application.

What preparation does a Nanolex ceramic coating require?

The paint is cleaned, decontaminated and corrected as needed, then degreased under controlled conditions. Final Wipe can be used within the appropriate preparation; the essential requirement is a clean, dry and residue-free surface.

When is SiFinish used on a protected vehicle?

SiFinish serves as a selected finishing and maintenance option on suitable surfaces. AVP first checks the condition and water behaviour of the existing protection so the maintenance need and product suit that layer.

What roles do PreWash, Wheel Cleaner and Interior Cleaner have?

PreWash loosens suitable contamination before contact washing, Wheel Cleaner treats compatible wheel contamination and Interior Cleaner is for appropriate cabin surfaces. Concentration, dwell time and material approval are set separately for each area.

Can a Nanolex coating follow a polish from another brand?

Yes, if the polish has been fully worked and the surface degreased for the coating. AVP uses suitable lighting to confirm that fillers or oils neither mask defects nor interfere with bonding.
