It delivers the gloss and smoothness the Paint Serum range is known for, but steps up durability and resistance for vehicles that need stronger long-term protection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYumCars positions the Paint Serum range as a unique flexible ceramic protection system, engineered to partially absorb into the clear coat rather than behaving purely like a brittle layer sitting on top. Paint Serum IV builds on that philosophy with hybrid bonding technology and a silicon carbide infused topcoat for increased repellence and resistance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis makes Paint Serum IV a strong choice for cars that are regularly driven, exposed to harsher conditions or owned by customers who want a more durable coating option without moving straight to the longest-life Paint Serum VI.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCorrect preparation is critical. The paint should be fully washed, chemically decontaminated, mechanically decontaminated, polished if required and wiped down with \u003cstrong\u003eYum Panel Wipe\u003c\/strong\u003e.
