The origin of "shine" that is always chosen
VIDEO »
From organic to inorganic. It was the driving force that greatly moved the history of Japanese automotive protective coatings. 20 years in the pursuit of shine. Zen-Xero’s story. 20 years in the pursuit of shine. Zen-Xero’s story.
1st ECHELON
The first generation ECHELON was born in 2003 as a pioneer of ceramic coating agents in Japan. In the auto detailing market, the new category of "ceramic coating" became widely known.
FE-1043
Development started at the same time as the release of the first generation ECHELON. After receiving a great response from user test review, the development code was used as the product name in a hurry to create "FE-1043". Using a completely different material from the first generation, it forms a surprisingly thick ceramic coat.
CS-1
A hydrophilic type ceramic coating agent that focuses on antifouling properties and reduced maintenance frequency. The self-cleaning effect of the hydrophilic coat keeps water stains and dirt at bay for a long-lasting beauty. It is a product that you can feel the benefits of coating.
NEW VERSION
The ECHELON NEW VERSION, which has greatly improved the ease of use and quality stability of the original ECHELON, forms a completely inorganic ceramic coat that boasts hardness and heat resistance.
Zen-Xero
Zen-Xero is the highest grade product of the Zen-Xero series with top-class capabilities in terms of coating hardness, thickness, weather resistance, and gloss. amazing durability that maintains super water repellency with a contact angle of 110° for a long time.
Clareed
A water repellent coating agent for a windshield that exhibits excellent water repellency and durability created by pure fluorine coat.
NANO-FIL
Having a special characteristic of a flexible ceramic coating layer with a nanolink network structure, it adheres to painted surfaces and reduces damage from scratches.
Duravail
Ceramic coating agent exclusively for protection film that enhances the antifouling property of the protection film with the self-cleaning effect of the hydrophilic coat.
ECHELON for Wheel
A ceramic coating agent for aluminum wheels that has excellent heat resistance and does not deteriorate even at high temperatures. It reliably protects the wheel surface from brake dust, iron powder, and oily dirt. After this product is applied, dirt can be removed with a simple wash.
ECHELON for Headlight
Specially formulated ceramic coating agent for headlights that achieves both transparency and smoothness has improved weather resistance from ultraviolet rays. It prevents deterioration of the coat itself and protects the surface of the headlight for a long time.
ECHELON for Leather
Ceramic coating agent for leather that has a non-crystalline ceramic coat with a special structure is highly conformable. It provides high protection and stain resistance without damaging the delicate leather texture.
ECHELON for Metal Trim
It is a ceramic coating agent exclusively for trim moldings that suppresses cloudiness and deterioration, and maintains gloss for a long time. Adopting an organic ceramic coat, it exhibits excellent protective performance with its fixing power on metal surfaces and overwhelming film thickness.
ECHELON Clareed powered by Zen-Xero
Ceramic coating agent for a windshield that uses Zen-Xero technology. Fluorine fixation promotes durability and a special ceramic coat smoothens the glass surface, maintaining beautiful water repellency with excellent water scattering properties.
Zen-Xero Dynamic
The Zen-Xero technology based on a new theory realizes high durability performance created by the binding force between the painted surface and the ceramic coat. It is an ideal form of ceramic coating that achieves both long-lasting super water repellency and stain-resistant functionality through the perfect fusion of fluorine and glass component.
Zen-Xero Smart
Zen-Xero technology effect maintains high durability and super water repellency. It demonstrates excellent antifouling performance with dynamic water repellency with functionality.
Vario
A ceramic coating agent for various vehicle parts such as wheels, leather, headlights, and metal trim moldings. One liquid protects all of these parts.
Zen-Xero New
A next-generation coating that combines the strengths of inorganic vitreous, organic vitreous, and silicone. Not only the body but also the entire vehicle is protected with a “Ryu-Hassui” flowing water-repellent coat using new nanotechnology. It has everything you need for a coating, including functionality, beauty and durability.
To the future
Zen-Xero will continue to evolve toward the future of ceramic coating.

Zen-Xero Product Lineup
Ceramic coating with deep gloss and excellent luster
Zen-Xero Dynamic uses Zen-Xero technology, which was developed to strongly fix the ceramic coat on the painted surface, and the highly smooth coat achieves deep gloss and excellent luster. The "dynamic water repellent function" achieved by optimizing all elements from the selection of raw materials to the blending amount greatly reduces damage such as stains. In addition, the ceramic coat, which contains fluorine evenly, maintains water repellency even when the coat is reduced.
Super Water Repellent
Experience the more luxurious ceramic coating in daily life.
Zen-Xero technology achieves super water repellency. Excellent antifouling performance with dynamic water repellency minimizes damage from external factors such as stains. Achieving a high water contact angle close to Zen-Xero Dynamic’s, you can experience its superior protection as a more affordable option.
Super Water Repellent
"3D network structure coat" with both hardness and flexibility
NANO-FIL has a "3D network structure coat" that combines high hardness and flexibility with the motif of the molecular structure of “Urushi” lacquer used in traditional Japanese crafts such as lacquerware. This function minimizes damage to the painted surface and demonstrates overwhelming weather resistance. It creates elliptical water droplets that do not have a lens effect, and water droplets run off. This super water-sliding performance that prevents dirt from sticking to the painted surface is the greatest feature of NANO-FIL.
Water repellent
Antifouling property created by hydrophilic coat
CS-1 forms an inorganic hydrophilic coat that looks like a clean windowpane. By forming a thin water sheet that slides away without any water beads, the self-cleaning effect works and removes dirt adhering to the painted surface. Due to the highly durable ceramic coat created by a chemical reaction with moisture in the air, there is no oxidation deterioration due to ultraviolet rays, and cracks do not occur. In addition, it has extremely high adhesion and does not peel off after washing, so it can be kept beautiful for a long time.
Hydrophilic
Durability and water repellency that passed the test of 1 million wiper cycles
Clareed uses Zen-Xero technology, which increases the amount of fluorine fixation, and achieves beautiful water repellency. It gave Clareed both durability to clear a 1 million wiper cycle test and water scattering effect. Smooth wiper operation due to overwhelming smoothness of the glass surface greatly reduces "chatter" that occurs in European cars.
Super Water Repellent
Protect all the parts.
Vario is a versatile ceramic coating that is ideal for a wide variety of car parts, such as wheels, headlights, trim moldings and interior leather. The effect is maximized on different materials, and the ceramic coat maintains excellent antifouling properties and high protection performance. Zen-Xero protects every part of your car.
Water repellent
Double protection, double aesthetic
Duraveil is a ceramic coating agent exclusively for PPF. The self-cleaning effect of the hydrophilic coat enhances the antifouling properties of PPF without impairing the soft texture of the polyurethane material. Duraveil dramatically reduces PPF maintenance frequency.
