Solar Panel Coating FAQs
Ceramic Pro is used extensively across the renewable energy industry to apply a superior, impenetrable coating to solar panels that prevents deterioration and build-up of grime, making the solar panels more efficient. Ceramic Pro Strong, is designed to act as sacrificial layers, meaning they take the brunt of chemical and environmental exposure to protect the underlying surface — typically paint, vinyl, glass, or solar panels.
Ceramic Pro Strong is a nano-ceramic coating applied to solar panels to protect the surface, increase light transmission, and reduce maintenance needs. It’s designed to enhance panel efficiency, lifespan and reduces maintenance.
The coating creates a smooth, anti-reflective surface that allows more sunlight to pass through the glass, boosting the panel's ability to convert light into energy.
Yes. Ceramic Pro Strong is compatible with all glass-faced solar panels and is applied without damaging the cells or altering the manufacturer warranty (always check with your panel supplier for confirmation).
Yes! The hydrophobic (water-repellent) layer causes rainwater to bead up and roll off, removing dust and dirt in the process. The panel becomes easier to clean and maintain and makes it more efficient.
The coating is extremely durable and can last up to 3–5 years or longer, depending on environmental exposure and how well the panels are maintained.
No. The application is done with the panels on, and power generation is not affected in the long term. Panels can be coated before installation.
Yes, but the panels must be cleaned and decontaminated before application. We offer a full cleaning and prep process as part of the service.
A typical residential system (e.g. 6–12 panels) can be coated in about 3–4 hours, depending on the panel condition and accessibility i.e. scaffolding or ladders that may be required. Once the coating is applied it is touch dry in 10 minutes.
No, but it greatly reduces the need for frequent cleaning. You may find you need to clean panels far less often, saving time and money. The cleaner the panel, the more it produces.
A maintenance wash is done annually. The panels are washed and cleaned thoroughly and an application of Careplus is applied to every panel. This assists with restoring the hydrophobic effect on the panels. This maintenance can be done by yourself; you will need to buy the Careplus from us.
Ceramic Pro Strong is typically resistant to acid, alkalis, solvents, salt, detergents, bird droppings, bug splatter and tree sap. It is oxidation and UV resistant.
While the coating is not completely dust-proof, it is resistant to dust and debris settling on the surface. Naturally, some dust and particles will accumulate on the panels over time, but the coating makes them much easier to clean. Thanks to its hydrophobic properties, dirt and grime can be easily rinsed off with water.
