Let’s start with the basics. Revivify is a next-generation, self-healing paint protection coating that's quickly becoming a go-to alternative to traditional ceramic coatings. Unlike many coatings that harden into a brittle shell, Revivify remains flexible, allowing it to recover from light scratches with heat or sunlight.
At Xtreme Autowerx, we specialize in applying Revivify coating with precision, helping you maintain that like-new shine whether you drive a truck, SUV, sports car, or weekend cruiser.

Where Can Revivify Coating Be Applied?

Here’s the deal: while Revivify coating is incredibly versatile, it’s not a "one-size-fits-all" solution for every surface on your vehicle. Below is a breakdown of where it works best and where it might not be the right choice.
Surfaces That ARE Ideal for Revivify Coating

Painted Surfaces
Absolutely. Your vehicle’s clear coat is where Revivify shines (literally). It bonds to the paint to create a flexible, self-healing layer that protects from UV rays, oxidation, minor scratches, and contaminants.
Plastic Trim
Yes bumpers, especially, but with some care. Revivify can be applied to plastic trim and bumpers, especially faded black plastics, restoring their look and preventing further fading. Learn how we handle trim on our Exterior Detailing Services page.
Carbon Fiber and Chrome
Revivify’s flexibility allows it to bond to more delicate materials like carbon fiber or chrome, offering both aesthetic enhancement and protection.
Wheels (Painted or Powder-Coated)
High-heat resistant versions of Revivify can be applied to wheels, helping to repel brake dust and road grime. Check out our Revivify Coating Services for more info.
Headlights and Taillights
Yes again! Revivify can help protect against yellowing and fading, keeping your lenses clearer longer. It's an awesome add-on during a Full Detail.
Surfaces to Avoid or Apply with Caution

Rubber Seals and Weatherstripping surfaces require flexibility and breathability. Coating them could lead to brittleness or cracking over time.
Windshields and Glass Technically, it can bond to glass, but it’s not designed for optical clarity. For glass, you’re better off with a dedicated glass coating product like Gtechniq G1 ClearVision.
Interior Surfaces Revivify is not suitable for upholstery, leather, or interior plastics. Instead, check out our Interior Detailing Services for solutions designed for those materials.
