What are Autobahn coatings?

Autobahn is a line of professional ceramic coatings made for application by trained shops. Its two main coatings are Keramik X, a clear nano-ceramic coating, and Leicht, an easy-to-apply coating that can be used on its own or layered with Keramik X. Both cure into a protective layer that repels water and resists chemicals and oxidation.

The Autobahn difference

There are hundreds of ceramic products on the market, from spray bottles at the parts store to professional coatings that only trained installers use. The difference is in how concentrated the coating is, how it cures, and how much prep it needs to perform.

Autobahn is built for the professional side of that market. Its coatings are designed to be applied by a shop after proper surface prep, which is the step that decides how well any coating bonds and how long it keeps working. That fits the way we work: every coating we apply goes on after the paint or wheel has been cleaned, decontaminated and prepped.

Because we also repair, refinish and powder coat wheels, using one professional coating line across paint and wheels keeps the results consistent, whether we are protecting a whole car or a freshly refinished set of rims.

Meet the Autobahn coatings

Two coatings, used on their own or together. Here is what each one does and who it suits.

Nano-ceramic base coat

Autobahn Keramik X

Keramik X is Autobahn's clear nano-ceramic coating. Once it cures, it forms a hard, transparent layer bonded to the surface underneath. It is formulated with a high concentration of active ingredients, so it delivers strong performance with fewer layers.

ProtectionHigh
GlossStrong
Water beadingStrong
Layers neededFewer

Rain and rinse water bead up and roll off, carrying dirt with them
Helps the finish stand up to bird droppings, bug residue and road chemicals
Helps slow the dulling and fading caused by sun exposure

Best forDaily drivers parked outside, owners who want the most protection, and freshly refinished or powder coated wheels.

Easy-apply coating and top layer

Autobahn Leicht

Leicht is Autobahn's easy-to-apply coating. It can be used on its own as a durable coating, or layered over Keramik X to add extra durability, gloss and water beading on top of the base coat.

ProtectionGood
GlossStrong
Water beadingStrong
Ease of levelingEasiest

A durable stand-alone option without the full Keramik X package
Adds gloss and slickness as a top layer over Keramik X
Levels easily, which helps on large panels and complex wheel designs

Best forA lighter coating option, or the top layer in a Keramik X package for the most gloss and beading.

Keramik XLeicht

Layered together for the strongest protection, gloss and water beading of the three options.

Compare all options

Keramik X or Leicht: which is right for you?

The two products can be used separately or together. Here is how the options compare.

Autobahn coating options
	Leicht on its own	Keramik X on its own	Keramik X with a Leicht top layer
Protection level	Good	High	Highest of the three
Gloss and water beading	Good	Strong	Strongest, with added slickness
Good fit for	Lighter protection or a tighter budget	Most daily drivers and refinished wheels	Owners who want the most from their coating
Prep needed	Full prep	Full prep	Full prep

Every option still needs the same careful prep. The product changes how much protection you get on top of a properly prepared surface, not whether the prep can be skipped.

How we choose a coating for your vehicle

We recommend a coating based on how you use the car, not a one-size package.

A daily driver parked outside

Sun, rain and dirt every day. Keramik X gives the strongest base, and a Leicht top layer adds extra beading.

A garage-kept weekend car

Less exposure means a lighter option can do the job, while still adding gloss and easier cleaning.

Wheels after repair or powder coating

A new finish that sees hot brake dust. Coating it right away makes brake dust far easier to rinse off.

Freshly painted calipers

Calipers sit in the dirtiest spot on the car. A coating helps them stay bright between washes.

A new car

New paint is the easiest to prep, so it is a good time to coat before swirls and contamination build up.

An older car with tired paint

The paint may need more prep first. We will tell you what is realistic before recommending a coating.

Where we apply Autobahn coatings

The same coating line protects the surfaces our other services work on, so the whole car can be planned together.

Paint

A coating over clean, prepped paint adds gloss and makes the car easier to wash. It is the most common way owners use Autobahn coatings. See our ceramic coating service.

Wheels

Wheels collect hot brake dust every time you stop. A coated wheel releases that dust with a rinse, which means less scrubbing and fewer cleaning scratches over time.

Refinished surfaces

After powder coating, rim repair or caliper painting, a coating protects the brand new finish from the start, when it is cleanest and easiest to coat.

Professional Autobahn coatings vs store-bought ceramic sprays

Ceramic spray products are easy to buy and quick to use. They are a different category from a professional coating.

Professional coating vs spray-on ceramic
	Store-bought ceramic spray	Professional Autobahn coating
What it is	A diluted ceramic-infused spray sealant	A concentrated coating that cures into a hard layer
Prep	Usually sprayed on after a wash	Applied after washing, decontamination and surface prep
Durability	Needs reapplying often	Built to last much longer with proper care
Application	Anyone, in minutes	A trained shop, section by section
Best use	A quick top-up between washes	Long-term protection for paint and wheels

Autobahn coating questions

What is Autobahn Keramik X?

Keramik X is Autobahn's clear nano-ceramic coating. It cures into a hard, transparent layer bonded to the surface, which repels water and helps the finish resist chemicals and oxidation. It is formulated with a high level of active ingredients so it performs well with fewer layers.

What is Autobahn Leicht?

Leicht is Autobahn's easy-to-apply coating. It can be used by itself for durable protection, or layered over Keramik X to add more durability, gloss and water beading. It is designed to level easily for an even finish.

Should I choose Keramik X or Leicht?

For most daily drivers and refinished wheels, Keramik X is the stronger base, and a Leicht top layer adds even more gloss and beading. Leicht on its own suits lighter protection needs. We recommend an option after looking at your vehicle and how you use it.

Can Autobahn coatings go on wheels?

Yes. Wheels are one of the best places to use a coating, because brake dust and road grime release much more easily from a coated finish. It works especially well right after a wheel has been repaired, refinished or powder coated.

How is Autobahn different from other ceramic coatings?

Autobahn is a professional coating line designed for application by trained shops after full surface prep, rather than a quick spray-on product. Like any professional coating, how well it performs depends heavily on the prep and application, which is where most of our time goes.

Does an Autobahn coating need maintenance?

Yes, but it is simple. Gentle hand washing with a pH-neutral shampoo, quick removal of bird droppings and bugs, and avoiding brush-type car washes keep a coating performing. You get aftercare instructions when you pick up your vehicle.
