CS-II TitaniumSH coating is our newest coating and leads the coating industry into an entirely different direction. Where most coatings are concerned with being the hardest (9h), we felt that a softer coating that self healed under the sun was far more beneficial than trying to create a surface that resisted scratching. The bottom line is that putting on a hard coating on soft paint won’t make it scratch resistant, so why not make it automatically heal while being outside? Now self healing doesn’t mean you can scratch the paint with a key down to the metal and expect it to magically heal nor does it mean that it is easily scratched. Actual scratch resistance is on par with other coatings but by being softer, it has the ability to reflow under heat.
The limits of this technology are similar to what you find on the best paint protection films from Suntek and Xpel except in those cases they require a heat gun or hair dryer to heal from damage. In our case, you just need 110-150 degF of heat which is easily achieved on a sunny day.
