Latest generation of fabric sealant
Protect and preserve all your fabric surfaces with Emporio Automotive, CERAMIX FABRICOAT, a truly revolutionary and highly effective coating engineered to create a tough, resilient, and extremely hydrophobic barrier.
Manufactured using an advanced SiO2 (silica) based coating, this unique formula forms a deep, durable bond with the individual fibres of your fabric, delivering up to 6 months of unparalleled, long-lasting protection. CERAMIX FABRICOAT establishes a strong, yet completely invisible shield that not only safeguards your fabrics against dirt, grime, and liquids but also provides crucial defence against harmful UV rays. These UV rays are a common culprit for causing colours to fade and materials to degrade during extended exposure to sunlight.
With its impressive coverage - as little as 80ml is sufficient to protect 1 square metre of fabric (though consumption may vary based on surface type and fabric absorbency) - and exceptional durability for up to half a year, CERAMIX FABRICOAT offers a cutting-edge, high-technology solution for all your vehicle's textiles and woven fabrics. It truly sets new standards in the realm of quartz-based textile protection. Designed for comprehensive use on most woven fabrics and textiles, both inside and outside your car, CERAMIX FABRICOAT ensures these surfaces remain cleaner for significantly longer periods and become remarkably easier to clean.
This coating's super hydrophobic properties are evident as it actively "throws" water and liquids off the fabric, causing spills to bead up and roll away effortlessly. For example, even fabric convertible roofs can maintain a pristine appearance with just a simple high-pressure rinse once a month, negating the need for frequent, strenuous scrubbing.
Once applied, the hydrophobic effect, along with the overall fabric protection, is sustained for an extended duration. This means you don't need to refresh the coating with every single wash - simply rinse the surface with a pressure washer or wash it gently with a pH-neutral shampoo like Emporio Automotive, PURE SHAMPOO, then allow it to air dry.

Features & Benefits:
-
Advanced SiO2 Protection: Creates a tough, extremely hydrophobic and oleophobic barrier by chemically bonding with fabric fibres.
-
Long-Lasting Durability: Provides up to 6 months of robust protection against contaminants, liquids, and UV degradation.
-
Invisible Shield: Forms a strong, clear, and breathable coating that does not alter the fabric's appearance, texture, or feel.
-
Superior Repellency: Actively repels water, liquids, and dirt, causing them to bead up and roll off the treated surface.
-
UV Protection: Guards against harmful UV rays, significantly preventing fabric fading, discoloration, and material degradation.
-
Simplified Maintenance: Keeps fabrics cleaner for longer and dramatically simplifies future cleaning processes; often a quick blot with a damp cloth or a pressure rinse is sufficient.
-
Economical Coverage: Highly concentrated formula; as little as 80ml can effectively protect 1 square meter of fabric (actual consumption may vary).
-
Versatile Application: Ideal for a wide range of automotive textiles including car interior fabrics, carpets, floor mats, and especially fabric convertible roofs.
Directions for use:
IMPORTANT: Apply to a meticulously clean and completely dry surface in a well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight and high humidity. Ensure the fabric is absolutely free of all dirt, dust, oils, and moisture. Always wear appropriate chemical-resistant gloves and eye protection. Before full application, always test on an inconspicuous area first to ensure compatibility and desired results on your specific fabric type.
-
Prepare Fabric: Thoroughly clean the fabric surface using a suitable fabric cleaner or all-purpose cleaner, ensuring all dirt, stains, and residues are removed. Once cleaned, allow the fabric to air dry completely—this is crucial for proper bonding. Vacuum the fabric thoroughly to remove any loose particles or dust.
-
Shake Well: Shake the CERAMIX FABRICOAT bottle thoroughly and vigorously for at least 30-60 seconds before use to ensure the advanced SiO2 formula is perfectly mixed and ready for application.
-
Spray Application: Mist the product evenly onto the fabric surface from a consistent distance of approximately 15-20 cm (6-8 inches). Apply in a uniform cross-hatch pattern (first horizontal passes, then vertical passes) to ensure comprehensive and even coverage. Avoid oversaturating the fabric; a fine, even mist is more effective than heavy wetting.
-
Work in Sections: For larger areas, work on small, manageable sections (e.g., one seat section, half a convertible roof) at a time to ensure even application and to prevent missing spots.
-
Allow to Cure: After application, allow the coating to fully cure in a dry, dust-free, and well-ventilated environment. For optimal performance and full durability, allow at least 12 hours for full curing before exposing the treated fabric to moisture, liquids, or heavy use. Avoid touching or disturbing the treated surface during this critical curing time.
-
Layering (Optional): For maximum protection, enhanced durability, or on highly absorbent fabrics, a second light coat can be applied. If applying a second layer, allow the first coat to cure for at least 4 hours before the second application.
-
Maintenance: Once treated and fully cured, maintaining your coated fabrics becomes incredibly easy. Regularly vacuum treated surfaces to remove loose debris. For spills or dirt, simply blot immediately with a clean damp microfibre towel, or a gentle rinse with a pressure washer or a light hand wash with a pH-neutral shampoo (such as Emporio Automotive UK PURE SHAMPOO) is usually sufficient for cabrio roofs, followed by allowing the fabric to air dry..
