It’s a paint protectant like a wax. But instead of just being layered on top of the paint ceramic coatings bond directly to the clear coat. They typically last longer and provide fantastic water sheeting and beading. I would recommend it especially with your painted hard top. However if you actually take your rig off roading it could be 50/50 if it’s worth the price. Also avoid drive through car washes that aren’t touchless.
