100% Certified Tough

We're beyond excited to unveil the world's strongest ceramic coatings, and we've got the official certification to back it up. Coating Farm USA is one of the select few to have our products certified by the renowned experts at SGS, a global leader in inspection, verification, testing, and certification. And get this – our ceramic coatings scored a 10H+ hardness rating, making our coatings the only ones in the industry with that top-tier hardness rating. So yeah, when we say we're talking about the world's strongest ceramic coatings for your ride, we mean it.

THE SGS

SGS, also known as Société Générale de Surveillance, is like the OG in inspection, verification, testing, and certification. They've been doing their thing since 1878, with offices and labs all over the globe. From making sure products meet industry standards to giving them the thumbs-up through tough testing, SGS has got it covered.

Why We Tested

We were so confident in our products that we sent samples of our ceramic coatings to SGS for testing and certification. Few companies take this step due to its cost and the prevalence of cheaply manufactured ceramic coatings that offer minimal protection. Some claim to have a 10H hardness without any supporting data. Others discredit the 9H or 10H badges because their coatings have failed similar independent tests, undermining the credibility of the certification process. At Coating Farm, we believe in transparency and credibility, which is why we initiated testing and obtained certification.

How We Tested

So, how did we snag that impressive 10H+ hardness rating from SGS? Let's break it down. You see, there's a whole lot of confusion swirling around about what these ratings actually signify. At the core of it all is the pencil hardness test, which gauges the scratch resistance of a ceramic coating by running pencils of varying hardness levels across a coated surface. Picture this: if a coating earns a 10H pencil equivalent, it means it can withstand the scrape of a 10H pencil without a scratch. These pencils range from super soft lead (2H) to crazy hard (10H).

What Matters

Generally speaking, on the same scale, most car paintwork is between 4H to 6H, so the Coating Farm ceramic coating offers more protection. It does not mean that it can’t be scratched at all or that stone chips can’t occur. However it does act as a harder and more scratch resistant surface than your paintwork alone. It acts as a sacrificial layer that if damaged, can be machine polished without harming your paint’s clear lacquer coat and then re-coated.
