Features

What sets this tier apart

Carbon-Based Technology

The first of its kind — a carbon-based product in the hand-applied liquid coating category, built on a specialized graphite carbon structure for an extreme anti-corrosion barrier.

Graphite-Infused Strength

Graphite elements add superior density, thermal conductivity, and extreme corrosion + chemical resistance against bird droppings, acid rain, road salts, and UV.

Heat-Activated Self-Healing

Minor scratches and swirl marks repair themselves with heat exposure — sunlight or warm water.

Deep Gloss + Extreme Hydrophobicity

A super-slick surface delivers mirror-like gloss and amplified color clarity while repelling water, dirt, and contaminants. Layerable up to 3 layers.

Frequently asked about CarbonX

How long does CarbonX last?

Up to 8 or more years when properly maintained, with self-healing active for the full lifespan. It is the longest-lasting coating in the Revivify line.

How much does CarbonX cost installed?

Published installed ranges run about $2,800 to $3,500 on a sedan, $3,500 to $4,200 on an SUV or truck, and $4,500 to $5,500 or more on an exotic, including surface prep. Paint correction and add-ons are extra. See the pricing guide for the full table.

Can I buy CarbonX and apply it myself?

No. CarbonX is sold only to Revivify-certified applicators who have completed training. Consumer DIY application is not offered, and the warranty requires certified installation and CARFAX registration.

Does CarbonX self-heal like SH Ultra Pro?

Yes. It uses the same heat-activated self-healing chemistry: sunlight, hot water, or a heat gun reflows light swirls and wash marks in the coating. Rock chips that cut through to the paint do not heal.

Is CarbonX a ceramic coating?

No. It is a carbon-based, urethane self-healing coating that cures flexible. A ceramic (SiO₂) coating cures hard and rigid and cannot heal.

How to Apply

Application overview

Surface prep

  • •Wash & decontaminate — thoroughly wash and clay the vehicle to remove all bonded contaminants.
  • •Paint correction — correct the finish as needed to remove swirls, oxidation, and imperfections.
  • •Final wipe — panel-wipe with Revivify PCD (Paint Coating Degreaser) to strip oils, polishing, and compound residue so the coating bonds cleanly.
