This two-step ceramic coating made of BaseCoat and GlossCoat protects paint for up to 5 years against UV, chemicals and the weather — with maximum adhesion thanks to the promoter step and serious gloss from the final GlossCoat.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn the SONAX PROFILINE ceramic range, the \u003cstrong\u003eSONAX PROFILINE CeramicCoating CC Evo\u003c\/strong\u003e sits right at the top: the two-step system of BaseCoat and GlossCoat delivers the longest protection, the highest SiO₂ concentration and the most refined application protocol in the entire SONAX PROFILINE line-up. Up to 5 years of paint protection against UV, chemical attack, acid rain and mechanical wear — that's what the CC Evo promises, and it delivers when you prep properly and apply it the right way. The 150 ml kit including 4 application pads is built for one car and holds enough material for an uncompromising coating result. The CC Evo is the product for detailing studios that want to give their customers the best.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTwo-step system for maximum adhesion and superior protection.\u003c\/strong\u003e What sets the CC Evo apart from single-step ceramic coatings is the two-step build-up: the BaseCoat goes on first, straight onto the decontaminated, polished and degreased clear coat, and creates a chemical bridge between the paint surface and the GlossCoat that follows. This promoter function of the BaseCoat clearly boosts the adhesion of the whole system compared with a single-layer application — the result is a deeper, more durable anchoring of the ceramic layer in the clear coat, which stretches protection out to 5 years.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGlossCoat for maximum gloss and UV protection as the top layer.\u003c\/strong\u003e The GlossCoat of the CC Evo handles the look and the protective finish: it forms the outer ceramic layer that takes the contact with the elements and at the same time sets the gloss of the whole system. The GlossCoat formula is tuned for maximum transparency and gloss boost — once it has cured, the car looks deeper, clearer and brighter than it did before coating. UV absorbers in the GlossCoat formula protect both the ceramic layer and the paint underneath against UV breakdown.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUp to 5 years of protection with regular care — the smart long-term option.\u003c\/strong\u003e Apply the CC Evo to a car and keep the ceramic layer topped up with a ceramic-compatible topper, and you protect the paint over a span where ordinary wax sealants would have needed reapplying several times over. The total cost across 5 years — one application kit plus the odd topper product — sits well below what regular polymer sealant treatments add up to. On high-value cars in particular, where keeping the paint right feeds straight into resale value, the CC Evo is an investment that pays off.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003cblockquote class=\"praxistipp\"\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDetailing1's tip from the shop:\u003c\/strong\u003e The CC Evo system doesn't forgive mistakes in prep — and it judges the starting condition of the paint more harshly than single-step systems, because the longer it lasts, the longer any flaw stays visible too. Our protocol: full decontamination (iron remover, tar, clay bar if needed), then paint thickness readings on every panel, a polishing pass with \u003ca href=\"\/products\/sonax-profiline-perfectfinish-finish-politur\"\u003eSONAX PROFILINE PerfectFinish\u003c\/a\u003e for a mirror-smooth base, then an IPA wipe-down 1:1 over every surface. Lay the BaseCoat down first and let it dry fully (per the manufacturer's spec) — only then bring on the GlossCoat. During application, mask off edges, seals and rubber trim or wipe them straight away. For ongoing care once it has cured, we recommend the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/sonax-profiline-ceramic-spraycoating-spruehversiegelung-keramik\"\u003eSONAX PROFILINE Ceramic SprayCoating\u003c\/a\u003e as a topper after every wash — that stretches the life of the CC Evo and brings the water beading back between care cycles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTwo-step ceramic chemistry explained — how BaseCoat and GlossCoat work together\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe two-step principle of the \u003cstrong\u003eSONAX PROFILINE CeramicCoating CC Evo\u003c\/strong\u003e rests on a chemical synergy between two specialised layers. The BaseCoat contains reactive organosilane compounds that, on application to the clear coat, form covalent bonds with the hydroxyl groups of the paint surface. This chemical cross-linking creates a high-strength bonding bridge and at the same time builds a reactive surface layer that's primed for the GlossCoat. The wait time between BaseCoat and GlossCoat is decisive here: too short, and the BaseCoat hasn't fully reacted with the paint surface yet; too long, and the reactive surface of the BaseCoat partly deactivates. The window for the GlossCoat is spelled out precisely in the product data sheet — and you have to stick to it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe GlossCoat in turn reacts with the reactive surface of the BaseCoat and forms a covalently cross-linked combined layer out of two ceramic films. This double-layer architecture is structurally more stable and chemically denser than a single layer of the same total thickness — the protective properties aren't additive, they're synergistic. The outer GlossCoat layer takes the primary contact with the elements (UV, water, chemicals), while the BaseCoat secures the structural adhesion and the bond to the clear coat. The result is a ceramic-layer composite that beats the single-layer performance of one-step coatings in durability and protection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHow the CC Evo cures: the chemical cross-linking of both layers kicks in right after application, but full curing (complete cross-linking of all SiO₂ chains) takes 7–14 days at room temperature. For the first 24–48 hours the layer is still mechanically delicate; moisture and water in the first 24 hours should be avoided completely. Professional coating studios cure under controlled conditions (temperature 20–25 °C, relative humidity 40–60%) and use infrared curing lamps that can drop curing time to 2–4 hours. For workshops without an infrared rig, a heated, dry hall is the bare minimum.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCC Evo application protocol — the full workflow for professional results\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eApplying the \u003cstrong\u003eSONAX PROFILINE CeramicCoating CC Evo\u003c\/strong\u003e calls for a structured protocol that breaks down into three phases. Phase 1 — prep: the car has to be fully decontaminated. Step 1: thorough pre-wash with a high-foam shampoo. Step 2: iron remover treatment on all metal surfaces (paint, wheels). Step 3: tar removal on sills and lower door areas. Step 4: clay bar treatment if the surface still feels rough after the iron remover. Step 5: polishing pass — on new cars the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/sonax-profiline-perfectfinish-finish-politur\"\u003eSONAX PROFILINE PerfectFinish\u003c\/a\u003e is enough; on used cars, compound first (e.g. FS 05-04) then PerfectFinish. Step 6: IPA wipe-down over every surface for full degreasing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePhase 2 — BaseCoat application: in a controlled environment (20–25 °C, indoors, no direct sun), lay the BaseCoat down with one of the supplied application pads in thin, even cross-hatch passes over panel sections of about 40×50 cm. Wet the pad only lightly (3–4 drops per pad). Wipe edges and transitions straight away with a dry microfibre cloth. Wait time per the product data sheet (typically 2–5 minutes after the last panel). Swap the cloth when it gets hard to drag — dried BaseCoat residue leaves streaks. Once the BaseCoat is fully on: hold the wait time before the GlossCoat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePhase 3 — GlossCoat application: grab a fresh pad, lay the GlossCoat on thin with the same method. The GlossCoat has a shorter flash-off time than the BaseCoat — work panel by panel quickly and steadily. Swap the buffing cloth often. Once it's all on: don't move the car for at least 24 hours, don't let it get wet, don't touch it. First gentle hand wash no sooner than 72 hours. Full toughness after 7–14 days.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere the CC Evo fits — which cars and customers the system is meant for\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eCC Evo\u003c\/strong\u003e is the product for cars where maximum paint protection over a long stretch is the priority. New cars in the premium and luxury segment: here the extra effort of the two-step system pays off, because the car's value justifies the higher care effort and the owner often keeps the same car for many years. Sports cars and exotics: cars that get shown at events and sit under direct light inspection benefit from the superior gloss of the GlossCoat. Cars in demanding environments: owners in rural areas (more stone chips), coastal regions (salt air) or industrial settings (fallout) benefit from the denser protective layer of the two-step system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor detailing studios, the CC Evo is the premium offering that justifies the top price bracket in the service portfolio: customers paying €500–1500 or more for a paint sealant expect a system with maximum performance and documented durability. The CC Evo kit with 150 ml and 4 pads supplies the material for one car; the service itself typically runs 8–16 working hours for prep and coating. The material share of the total price is manageable that way — the added value comes from the detailer's know-how and the disciplined prep.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eImportant: the CC Evo isn't suited to the inexperienced home user with no background in ceramic coating. If you're working with ceramic coatings for the first time, start with the single-step \u003ca href=\"\/products\/sonax-profiline-ceramiccoating-cc-one-paint-keramikversiegelung\"\u003eCC One\u003c\/a\u003e or the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/sonax-profiline-ceramiccoating-cc-pro-paint-keramikversiegelung\"\u003eCC Pro\u003c\/a\u003e to build a feel for the work before you put the more complex two-step system on a higher-value car.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCC Evo vs. CC Pro head to head — when is the upgrade worth it?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe choice between the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/sonax-profiline-ceramiccoating-cc-pro-paint-keramikversiegelung\"\u003eSONAX PROFILINE CeramicCoating CC Pro\u003c\/a\u003e (single-step, up to 4 years) and the \u003cstrong\u003eSONAX PROFILINE CeramicCoating CC Evo\u003c\/strong\u003e (two-step, up to 5 years) comes down to a few factors. Car value: high-value cars from about €50,000 up benefit from the step up to the CC Evo — the price gap between CC Pro and CC Evo is marginal next to the car's value, but the extra you get in durability and looks is noticeable. Protection span: if you keep the car 5+ years and don't plan to re-coat in that time, you're better off investing in the CC Evo system with its 5-year life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTime on hand: the two-step system takes more time to apply (about 30–60 minutes more than the CC Pro) and a controlled environment for the precise timing between BaseCoat and GlossCoat. For businesses on a tight schedule with high car throughput, the CC Pro can be the more economical call. Experience level: for first ceramic coating projects the CC Pro is easier to handle; the CC Evo assumes a feel for working the material. Bottom line: the CC Pro is the economically and qualitatively balanced all-rounder; the CC Evo is the system for maximum performance with no compromises.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eBuy the SONAX PROFILINE CeramicCoating CC Evo — what's in the kit, who it's for, and the verdict\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eSONAX PROFILINE CeramicCoating CC Evo\u003c\/strong\u003e comes as a complete kit with 150 ml (BaseCoat + GlossCoat combined) and 4 application pads. The split of the content into BaseCoat and GlossCoat is done on the product side already; the exact quantities are stated on the packaging. 150 ml in total is generous for a normal passenger car — with correct, sparing dosing you keep buffer material for touch-ups or trickier spots. For larger cars (SUV, van) we recommend dosing tightly and planning the material reserve in on purpose.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWho it's for: professional detailing studios with ceramic coating experience; premium dealer service for new cars; private users who have already applied CC One or CC Pro and are after the next performance level. The CC Evo is the right product when maximum protection, superior gloss and professional reliability are the deciding factors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVerdict: the SONAX PROFILINE CeramicCoating CC Evo is the flagship ceramic coating in the SONAX PROFILINE range — a system that demands everything in prep, application and aftercare, but pays you back with the best result SONAX has built for professional paint protection. Five years of protection, maximum gloss, proven chemistry.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SONAX","offers":[{"title":"150 ml + 4x applicator pads","offer_id":55547584938319,"sku":"D1-SNX-02379410","price":254.91,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0800\/3272\/7375\/files\/sonax-profiline-ceramiccoating-cc-evo-zwei-stufen-keramikversiegelung_150ml.png?v=1752512100","url":"https:\/\/detiiling1.com\/products\/sonax-profiline-ceramiccoating-cc-evo-zwei-stufen-keramikversiegelung","provider":"Detailing1","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
