What Is Snake Oil?
Snake Oil is a touch-free ceramic foam sealant that applies a durable, SiO₂-enhanced layer to paint, wheels, glass, and trim in seconds. Designed for use in a foam cannon or downstream injector, it bonds instantly to clean, wet surfaces and leaves behind a slick, glossy, and water-repelling finish.
It’s safe for:
- Ceramic coatings
- Clear coat and single-stage paint
- Chrome, plastic trim, glass, and vinyl wraps
