What “matte” is optically

Standard ceramic turns matte paint glossy. If you have factory matte or satin clear coat (BMW Frozen, AMG Magno, Audi Plasma…), never use standard Ceramic V3 / Ultra / Lite. Use only FEYNLAB® `Matte Ceramic`.

Curing

Ceramic systems need time for chemical maturation. For the first 24–48 hours, be most careful: minimise contact with water, dust, and chemical stages. Always confirm specific windows in the product manual for that coatin
