ZCoatings 10X Diamond
What makes it different
Graphene-Infused. Not Basic SiO2.
Most coatings use SiO2 - a silica compound that sits on top of your paint and degrades fast. We use a graphene-infused polysilazane base that cross-links and bonds directly to your clear coat. The graphene additive creates a denser, harder, more uniform barrier that doesn't wash away.
Graphene = Real Heat Dissipation
SiO2 traps heat. Our graphene additive conducts it far better, so water spots don't bake into your paint on hot summer days. SiO2 coatings can't do this.
Slicker Than SiO2
SiO2 feels grabby. Our graphene-polysilazane formula creates a genuinely slick surface where dirt and grime struggle to stick. Water beads off faster. Your wash routine gets easier.
50ml of Actual Compound
Most SiO2 coatings sell you 30ml of diluted formula with more solvent than active ingredient. We give you 50ml of concentrated graphene-polysilazane resin. One kit covers a full-size truck. No filler.
Wax sits on top and washes away. This bonds to your paint and stays there.
Behind the brand
Made by a detailer, not a marketing team
Hey, I'm Wade. I created ZCoatings because as both a detailer and car enthusiast, I kept seeing enthusiasts think that ceramic coatings are some super expensive job that only "the best cars" are worthy of. As someone who gets complimented on my sparkly black WRX paint constantly, I wanted to bring professional-grade coating chemistry to people like me. My goal is for every single one of our customers to have paint that stands out and gets compliments, whether that's at a car show or in a grocery store parking lot.
REAL RESULTS
Watch it go on. Watch it work.
This is what it actually looks like when you coat your car in a garage on a Saturday.
Full application
Wipe on, wait for it to flash, wipe off. That's the whole thing.
Before & After
See it in action
Real results on real cars. No studio tricks, no fake beads.
Water beads on contact
Coated paint repels water instantly. This is what real hydrophobic protection looks like.
Beads everywhere it counts
Doors, hood, roof - the coating works across every panel, not just the easy spots.
Effortless application
Wipe on, wait, wipe off. No special tools, no certification needed. If you can wash a car, you can coat it.
"I was worried about streaking on black paint, but it leveled out perfectly and left a deep, wet look without looking greasy. Definitely made the car easier to clean too since dust and dirt don't stick nearly as much anymore. If you care about keeping your paint looking clean and glossy, this coating is 100% worth it."
10X Diamond - Graphene Coating
- 1x 50ml ZCoatings 10X Diamond graphene-infused ceramic coating bottle
- 1x Foam applicator block
- 3x Suede application cloths
- 1x Pair nitrile gloves
- Application instruction card
One kit covers a full-size truck or SUV. 50ml is the industry standard. The formula is concentrated, not the filler-heavy cheap Amazon coatings.
- Two kits for two vehicles
- Multiple coats on one vehicle
- Extra for wheels, glass, trim, and future touch-ups
You'll need to supply:
- Car wash soap
- Clay bar or clay mitt
- Isopropyl alcohol (70% or higher)
- Microfiber towels for drying
- Painter's tape (for sensitive trim)
- Garage or covered space
Available at any auto parts store or Amazon. About $30 total. Don't skip the IPA - it's what removes the polishing oils so the coating actually bonds.
Prep is everything. The coating bonds to clean paint, not the grime you were too lazy to remove. Do the prep. Thank yourself later.
- Wash vehicle thoroughly
- Clay bar to remove bonded contaminants
- Polish if needed to remove swirls/defects
- IPA wipe-down to remove polishing oils
- Apply ZCoatings 10X Diamond in small sections using applicator
- Wait for flash (hazing)
- Buff off with clean microfiber
Apply in shade only. 50-80°F, low humidity. Direct sunlight = high spots and regret. Let it cure 24 hours before hitting it with water.
The formula: This isn't wax with a fancy label. It's a concentrated graphene-ceramic compound that bonds to your clear coat and stays there. Wax disappears in weeks. This lasts years. Washing gets easier, not harder.
Graphene vs Standard SiO2: Standard ceramic coatings use SiO2 (silica) as the active ingredient. It works, but it has limits. Graphene is a single-atom-thick carbon lattice that conducts heat far better than silica alone. In a coating, that means better heat dissipation (less water spotting), a slicker surface, and improved chemical resistance. The graphene additive in our polysilazane base creates a denser, more uniform barrier than SiO2 alone.
9H Hardness Rating: The 9H rating means your paint actually fights back against swirl marks and wash abuse. No more wincing every time you drag a towel across the hood.
Hydrophobic Barrier: Water beads up and rolls off like it owes you money. Grime doesn't stick around. Drying time drops. Your wash routine gets way less annoying.
Up to 5 years: Apply it right, maintain it like a grown-up, and this coating stays married to your paint. Wax gives up after a month. This stuff requires actual effort to kill.
Maintenance:
- Wash regularly with pH-neutral soap
- Avoid automatic car washes with brushes
- Use the two-bucket method to prevent swirls
- Top with a silica spray sealant every 3-6 months

Quick questions
Why is it only 50ml?
Because real ceramic coating is concentrated. You're paying for active compound, not a big bottle of filler with ceramic marketing like the cheap Amazon coatings.
Will one bottle cover my truck?
Yep. One kit handles a large SUV or truck with careful application. Two kits gives you enough for a second vehicle, an extra coat, or coverage for wheels, trim, and touch-ups down the road. Buy 2 for $159.98 (Save $20).
How long does it last?
Up to 5 years with regular washing and pH-neutral soap. Skip the automatic brush washes. Neglect it and it'll degrade faster - that's how coatings work.
Is this for professionals only?
Nope. If you can wash a car, clay bar, and follow directions, you can do this. The prep work is what separates a great coating from a mediocre one. Pay attention during prep and the rest is straightforward.
Where do you ship from?
Ships from our HQ in Iowa with fast free shipping (US only).
What prep do I need?
Wash, clay bar, IPA wipe-down. Polish first if your paint has swirls. The coating bonds to clean paint, not dirt. Skip the prep and you'll be sealing in disappointment.
What's the difference between Diamond and Original?
Original is SiO2 ceramic - solid protection, great entry point. Diamond upgrades to graphene-infused polysilazane: harder, longer-lasting, better heat dissipation, slicker finish. If you want the best chemistry and plan to keep your car 3+ years, Diamond is worth the step up. Both are DIY-friendly.
