### Ceramic & Graphene Coatings – Effortless Shine
Ceramic coating is a liquid polymer that bonds chemically with your Virtus's paint, creating a hard, 9H-rated layer that repels water, dirt, and UV rays. This is the perfect way to achieve that 'just detailed' look that lasts for years.
**Ceramic Coating Benefits for Virtus Owners:**

| **Ultimate Protection** | Full-body PPF + Ceramic Coating over PPF | Maximum peace of mind for GT owners or those who park outdoors |
### Sun Films / Window Tints – CRITICAL LEGAL ADVISORY
**⚠️ THE GOLDEN RULE FOR YOUR VIRTUS: KNOW THE LAW BEFORE TINTING.**
The use of sun-control films is strictly regulated in India. The 2012 Supreme Court ruling prohibits aftermarket films that reduce visibility below prescribed limits .
**Legal Requirements under Central Motor Vehicle Rules, 1989 :**
| Window | Minimum VLT Required |
|:---|:---|
| Front Windscreen | 70% |
| Rear Windscreen | 70% |
| Side Windows | 50% |
**Penalties for Violation :**
- First Offence: ₹100 – ₹300 fine
- Repeat Offences: Higher fines and possible other actions
**The Safe, Legal, and VW-Approved Alternative:**
> *'The only exception, according to this ruling is, when the car is designed and manufactured with tinted glass, with all due permission.'*
Therefore, the best solution for a Virtus is not an aftermarket film, but understanding and using the legal alternatives.
**Our Legal and ADAS-Safe Solutions for Your Virtus:**
| Solution | Legality | ADAS Impact | Recommendation |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Magnetic Sun Shades (for parked use)** | ✅ **100% Legal** | ✅ **No ADAS Impact** | **HIGHLY RECOMMENDED**. These are deployed only when the car is parked, blocking the sun's rays without any risk of sensor interference or police fines. |
| **RTO-Compliant Films (Side & Rear Only)** | ✅ Legal | ✅ Safe | Only for owners who want permanent film. Must be professionally installed with certified VLT levels. |
| **UV Protective Films** | ✅ Legal | ✅ Safe | Block harmful UV rays without reducing driver visibility . |
**What a Virtus Owner is Saying (Team-BHP Forum) :**
> *'I am going to opt for a ceramic coat(car pro) service. The owner at the accessory shop was suggesting sun film from Car pro for 25, 000. I live in Chennai. Is a sunfilm really necessary ? I already have the rear sunblind(part of the accessories provided by the showroom). My only apprehension is the legality, a supreme court ruling clearly prohibits use of sun films and sun blinds.'*
This owner is correctly concerned about the **legality of sun blinds**. Remember: **Car shades must be removed while driving** .
