Alcohol wipes may cause damage to ceramic coatings because alcohol, as an organic solvent, has the property of dissolving certain protective coatings. Ceramic coatings are typically applied to automotive surfaces to provide hydrophobic, anti-fouling, and scratch-resistant protection. Although they exhibit high chemical stability, prolonged or frequent use of alcohol wipes may gradually degrade the coating, compromising its protective effectiveness and longevity. For cleaning ceramic-coated automotive surfaces, it is advisable to prioritize specialized pH-neutral cleaners or diluted alcohol solutions (with concentrations below 70%), while avoiding abrasive scrubbing. If disinfection is required, conduct a spot test first and promptly rinse with clean water to minimize residue. In routine maintenance, regular application of ceramic coating care products can prolong its service life while preserving gloss and protective properties.
