FEYNLAB® CERAMIC LITE
Ceramic Lite is an easy to use, durable, slick, hydrophobic paint coating providing a high level of gloss to enhance any vehicle. It is extremely simple to apply with superb durability proven by 60,000+ real world client vehicle installations.
FEYNLAB® CERAMIC LITE is the legacy technology of our chief FEYNLAB® chemist who has innovated automotive ceramic coatings since 1996. This coating has been continually improved and is now available to the public exclusively as FEYNLAB® CERAMIC LITE.
Ceramic Lite is classified as our entry level coating due its extreme user friendly application method. ‘Lite’ designates the coating contains a lower solids content than our traditional offerings. However, it still packs quite a punch in terms of durability and performance.
FEYNLAB engineers, manufacturers, bottles, and ships all products in-house in the USA. Therefore, we can offer a consumer grade product that rivals many other pro offerings at a reasonable cost since we have cut out the price inflation of the traditional two and three tier distribution models.

Included
30ml (1oz) FEYNLAB® CERAMIC LITE (enough for 1 mid-sized vehicle)
Cautions
Always wear respirator & gloves during application. Ensure application area is free of loose contamination.
Paint Preparation
Thoroughly clean vehicle surface using FEYNLAB® PURE WASH. Follow with a topical decontamination clay treatment using FEYNLAB® PRIME. If necessary, use a ferrous iron removal product to remove all embedded iron deposits.
After polishing paint to the desired level, remove all polish oils using FEYNLAB® PANEL PREP to ensure optimal bonding and durability of the coating. After completing Panel Prep on all surfaces, wait a minimum of 10 min after using panel prep before coating application.
Directions
Prior to application, place vehicle in a well lit, temperature controlled 10°C-30°C (50°F-85°F), & contamination free environment. Have plenty (6 or more) new microfiber towels, 2 or 3 microfiber applicators on hand BEFORE application.
Once the vehicle is prepared, it is strongly recommended to tape off and protect all unapproved surfaces. This minimizes the risk of etching by the solvents in FEYNLAB® CERAMIC LITE on unapproved surfaces. Avoid these surfaces with CERAMIC LITE and wipe off immediately if any product accidentally finds these surfaces.
Shake CERAMIC LITE vigorously for 2 min before use. Open the bottle and allow the coating 1 min of air exposure.
CERAMIC LITE Application Instructions
- Apply enough CERAMIC LITE to a microfiber applicator to fully cover a single panel such as a door or half a hood.
- Make a “+” (plus) sign with product in the middle of the panel, then wipe around the boundaries of the section creating a frame.
- Next, fill in the framed area with slightly overlapping horizontal (left to right) straight lines over the entire panel. After, switch to vertical overlapping lines. This cross-hatching pattern ensures even application.
- Due to its user friendliness, CERAMIC LITE may be applied to the entire vehicle before removal.
- After application, step back and look for any areas missed or those with excess product. If found, smooth out evenly with the applicator sponge. This will ensure even drying across the panel and minimize excess product usage.
- Allow CERAMIC LITE to dwell on the panel a minimum of 15-20 min, until it is about 75% dry. Dwell time may vary depending on humidity and temperature. * Humid Climates 75%+ = Shorter Dwell time.
- To test removal readiness: lightly swipe a small spot with a gloved finger. If the swipe reveals a clean trail then remove. If the swipe smears then allow it to dwell longer. Repeat swipe test again in 2-5 min increments to determine wipe times.
- Wipe off CERAMIC LITE following same pattern of application, using two clean MF towels. Towel A (left hand) will remove (level) the majority of the coating. Towel B (right hand) will remove any remaining residue, revealing a crystal clear surface.
Recommended Maximum Area of Application:
ENTIRE vehicle, then wipe off in same pattern as application.
Note: If using CERAMIC LITE on black textured plastics, perform a simple wipe after 1-2 min to ensure even application and wipe clear if you see any residue or uneven areas.
Final Inspection
Be sure to carefully inspect all finished panels for any leftover coating residue (high spots) during the final wipe. Commonly edges, emblems, and other tight areas may contain some remaining residue. High spots are much easier to remove if caught within a 20-40 min window after the final wipe, than later when the coating has setup.
Layering
Although one layer of CERAMIC LITE is sufficient to achieve the one-year durability on clear-coated painted surfaces, another coat may be applied to any area to gain additional thickness (such as the hood or front bumper).
To layer CERAMIC LITE, wait 1-3 hours before applying a second layer. DO NOT wait longer than 3 hours after first layer or cloudiness will result.
Infrared Curing (Optional)
Bake each panel with an IR lamp to reach a surface temperature of 60°C (140°F) for 15min at a distance of ~ 30-36″ from the panel.
Post Application Instructions
- Avoid any incidental water exposure for 24 hours. If it occurs, gently wipe water off the surface.
- Avoid all chemicals including car washes for 7 days.
- If the vehicle must be released in wet conditions before 24hrs after the final coating, then apply FEYNLAB® DETAILER after 1-2 hours of curing time.
- Wash & Maintain Paint Regularly using FEYNLAB® PURE WASH or FEYNLAB® PURE RINSELESS.
Climate Notes
All FEYNLAB® Coatings are subject to different dwell and curing time windows due to humidity and temperature conditions. In General, the higher the humidity level the quicker the coating will cure. If humidity level approaches 75% or higher then consider lessening the recommended dwell and wipe times for the coating.
Additionally moving air will decrease coating dwell times for areas it contacts. Therefore, it is recommended to stop all moving air as much as possible during coating applications to ensure consistency for all portions of the vehicle.
Coatings are best applied in temperature controlled environments of 10°C-30°C (50°F-85°F), with humidity as low as possible.

Jeff Maliska –
I applied the Ceramic Lite 7 months ago in the fall of 2017. The durability and shine has been amazing. After two cars going through a Chicago winter, the shine held up. After washing the cars, they still look like day one of being applied. The material applied very easy as well. It took only a short time.

Amazing product, I’ve tried all different products to keep a long lasting shine on my cars and clients cars and FeynLab Lite has not disappointed! Brilliant product and will definitely be using many more times to come!

After using Feynlab Ceramic Lite 12 months ago I am amazed that something so easy to apply can be so effective. I almost felt I had cheated! The gloss, depth of colour & hydrophobicity is still as impressive as the day after application. I have no doubt that this coating will exceed its 1 year warranty by a long way.
OnSite Details (verified owner) –
As a detailing company we use FeynLab products often. We always have great feedback. I have personally applied FeynLab lite to all my vehicles (I never seem to keep one longer than a year) Most recently we fixed my wife’s Audi with Lite and TopCoat. This was 8 months ago, never garaged and in the extreme SC summer heat, humidity and salt spray of the ocean. Looks beautiful everyday!
Anthony (verified owner) –
First time using Feynlab products was coating my weekend car. I’ve used other major coating brands and was relatively happy, until I used this. Application is an absolute breeze! I prepped the car with Prime and panel prep after polishing, I couldn’t be happier! About to order some more products, I’ve found my new go-to brand.
Trayerc (verified owner) –
Easy and forgiving application, water behavior and gloss is unreal. Ceramic Lite I feel is on par with other upper level coatings on the market. One of my favorite coatings to install due to its simple application and ridiculous results!
Elton Fernandez –
Still the best 1 Year+ Ceramic Coating out in the market.
We have clients running this coating for well over 1 Year and 4 months now without any issues.
Easy on -> Easy off
We also use it on glass and vinyl from time to time
Sam Spirer (verified owner) –
THere is no better product out there. This easy to apply 1 year coating is insanely durable, insanely glossy and so forgiving during application. It lasted 2 years of abuse on my wife’s car, I’ve washed high spots off weeks later with ease, it stays hydrophobic through tons of contamination and the wet look is insane! So easy to use for the DIYer or the professional. Works great on its own or as a top coat to other coatings.

LOVE this coating, easy install & great performance! Should cost way more!
Kate Hadland –
Ceramic lite is very popular in our area! (Northern BC)
It is a great coating at a very good price! It constantly exceeds our expectations and our customers are loving it! We have many that are at 9 months coated and are holding up just fine even with our extreme winter weather!
Cleanup –
Great introductory coating for anyone wanting to see first hand what some of the benefits a ceramic coating can give. Extremely user friendly
Paul Fugiero (verified owner) –
Ceramic Lite is by far the easiest coating to apply and the slickest I’ve ever felt! This has a one year warranty but I know it’ll last beyond that!
Fine Shine Detailing –
This is a great entry level ceramic coating! Long flash time and even easier application.
Abdulla –
The best one year+ coating on the market and very user friendly.
WOMCarDetailing (verified owner) –
This product will make a grown man weep with joy. The results are breathtaking. It is easy to use – both in the application and in the removal. It lasts and lasts. I love this product!

Jason Sutphin (verified owner) –
What is not to love about this product. Incredibly easy to use and very durable. This product runs circles around the “other guys coatings”.
PaintPetrolAVL (verified owner) –
Super easy to apply, quick and no fuss protection. I’ve had to educate my clients as many in the area aren’t familiar with coatings, and the easiest one for me to move has been Lite. Demonstrating Lite has even converted people to longer term coatings!
Doesn’t hurt that it’s super glossy and durable!
Matt Tyra –
Ceramic Lite is the best introduction to coatings for everyone from the pro to the enthusiast. Its forgiving nature allows for easy use and great results.
Bareknuckles (verified owner) –
The easiest coating for the best results we’ve ever used in the shop. Last year we switched from using a polymer sealant to using ceramic lite as our baseline protection for all corrections in our shop. Extremely glossy and beautiful hydrophobic properties!
relentlessshine (verified owner) –
The best consumer Ceramic Coating on the market! Application is something any DIYer can handle! Look no further than Feynlab.
Nick CD Marsh –
Fantastic product which is so easy to use, it’s almost cheating!
Jay (verified owner) –
Great stuff across the board. Easy to use, super hydrophobic, and good protection. One of my favorite coatings to suggest to clients.
Xtreme detail (verified owner) –
This is a great coating to protect your vehicle. Very glossy and super hydrophobic.
Pablo Alvarez Jr (verified owner) –
By far the easiest and most forgiving coating to install. The slickness and gloss is amazing alomg with the hydro-phobics and wayer beading. My clients absolutely love how easy it is to wash and maintain their vehicles. Ceramic Lite is a great entry level Ceramic Coating for the DIY or those interested in offering coatings but still new to coatings. You wont be disappointed.
Corey (verified owner) –
Very easy to apply, great shine!
Corey L Eberhardt (verified owner) –
We love this product. Its a great 1 year ceramic coating. It shines up every time a car gets washed. It also holds up well in the extreme sun exposure and heat here in Florida.
