Not quite. There are different formulations of ceramic coatings. The most common type is SiO2 (silicone dioxide) and as long as it doesn’t get into a cut or your mouth, they are pretty safe. The graphene ones are new to the market and I don’t feel like trying them because they are way the fuck overpriced.
Nice, I am not too much into the science of it but I am very meticulous with my truck’s paint. I have a big shop with a diesel hot water pressure washer. I use Adam’s products.
I personally would not wash a vehicle with anything over 1500 psi. High pressure can embed contaminated into the clear coat and then you have either use some genuinely awful chemicals, or polishing, to get them out.
My go-to? Dish soap in a foam cannon, rinse with 1200 psi, then hand wash from soapy bucket with your personal choice of soap, rinse again, dry, then your choice of gloss/sealant.
Dish soap is a godsend for removing the top layer of oils and dirt. Sounds crazy, but it works and I’ve never had any issues. Just don’t use it in the sun.
