Protection designed around everyday ownership.
Ceramic paint and glass protection, professionally applied through selected automotive retail partners.
WHAT IS RAIN:KISD?
A ceramic coating bonds to your paintwork at a molecular level and cures into a hard, glass-like layer.
Water beads and rolls off. Dirt struggles to stick. Washing gets easier and the finish stays deeper, for longer.
It isn't a wax or a polish sitting on top of your paint. It's a cured ceramic layer that absorbs the day-to-day wear instead of the paint underneath.
The above image is from one of our test cars, a 2015 Audi A1. With no signs of previous protection or coating on the paintwork. Scrutinising the finish it showed significant signs of neglect and poor maintenance. The right hand side of the bonnet is untreated, whilst the left hand side is coated with our Gloss 5 Year Ceramic, applied on top of the un-corrected clearcoat.
WHAT DOES IT PROTECT?
Gloss paintwork
Depth and clarity, locked in from day one. The coating cures over the factory finish, so reflections stay sharp instead of dulling under swirls and water spotting.
Matte and satin finishes
Protection engineered specifically for matte, preserving the flat finish without adding shine. Matte paint is unforgiving of the wrong product, our Matte product is formulated for it.
Wraps and PPF
Extends the life of film and keeps it looking freshly applied. Film takes the impacts; the ceramic layer keeps the surface of it clean, sealed and easy to wash.
Glass
Rain disperses on the move, improving visibility before your wipers catch up. Frost and grime release more easily too, so winter mornings take less scraping.
YOUR CAR LEAVES THE SHOWROOM PERFECT. WHY NOT KEEP IT THAT WAY?
RAIN:KISD is a true ceramic coating, professionally applied by an approved installer. Just one application enables that new car feeling after every wash.
Quicker to clear
Frost and ice have less to grip on treated glass, so scraping takes less effort and less time before you set off.
Better visibility
Rain disperses across the screen as you drive, clearing the view before the wipers catch up.
Less effort, less risk
Dirt struggles to key into a cured ceramic surface, so most of it rinses away before you touch the paint. Less contact means fewer swirls.
Brake dust that lets go
Wheel faces can be treated too, so baked-on brake dust releases rather than etching in.

Lacquer that lasts
Years of UV break down an unprotected lacquer until it lifts and peels. A cured ceramic layer takes that exposure instead.
Bugs that come off
Bug splatter is acidic and etches into bare lacquer while it dries. On a coated surface it sits on top, so it lifts off in the wash instead of leaving a mark.
THE PROTECTION PACKAGE
Five years' cover on treated paintwork, in line with the product's durability. Registered to your vehicle and backed by a digital warranty record.
Extreme water-repellent protection for windscreen, exterior glass and mirrors. Rain clears on the move, and frost releases more easily on cold mornings. We're called RAIN:KISD for a reason.
Added resistance against light surface marking on treated paintwork. 7H is a pencil-hardness rating: coatings are graded by drawing pencils of increasing hardness across the cured surface, on a scale running from 6B at the softest to 9H at the hardest. A 7H result means the cured layer shrugs off the kind of light contact that would mark bare clearcoat.
No coating makes paint scratch-proof. 7H describes resistance to light surface marking on the cured film. So that means stone chips, car park scrapes and deliberate damage are outside what any ceramic layer can prevent.
WAX, SEALANT OR CERAMIC?
3,000 SCRUBS LATER, IT STILL BEADS.
Water repellency is easy to claim on day one, but not on day 365 and beyond. Our gloss coating was put through a standardised abrasion test (ISO 11998:2006) and measured again at the end. Check out the results below.
A wet abrasive pad is dragged back and forth across the coated panel three thousand times under a fixed load. This is the lab's compressed version of years of washing, brushes and drying towels.
The angle is how steeply a droplet stands on the paint. Steeper means less of the water is touching, so it pulls into a bead and rolls off instead of spreading and drying on. Just four degrees difference after three thousand scrubs made. A typical sealant or entry-level product is below the beading threshold long before then.
Under a standardised wet pad and load, not a hand wash.
Contact angle fell from 97° to 93° across the full test.
This applies to all surfaces. Particularly useful for flat facing surfaces.

FAIR QUESTIONS
Anything not covered here, your dealer can answer at handover.
Yes. The paint needs to be sound and properly prepared first, so your installer will assess the car before application. On an older finish the coating protects what's there, it doesn't correct existing damage.
You can, but brushes mark any paint finish, coated or not. A rinse and a pH-neutral shampoo with two buckets is kinder and because dirt releases more easily, quicker than you're used to.
No. It's one application, applied before you collect your new (or new to you) vehicle. Normal washing is all it asks for.
Five years on treated paintwork and two years on treated exterior glass, in line with the product's durability. Your dealer registers it against your vehicle and you get a digital record of the application.
Yes. We provide a formulation made for matte and satin that protects without adding shine, and the same product family works over wraps and paint protection film.
Because preparation and cure conditions decide how the coating performs. It's supplied to approved installers only, applied in a controlled environment. That's why we can stand behind the five years.
