It is my understanding (and pretty much everybody but you on this thread) that ceramics bond with the clear coat essentially filling in small gaps in the clearcoat making the surface smoother. A smoother surface has a lower coefficient of friction meaning that dirt, water, etc. all shed from the surface easier than a less-smooth surface.
LOL. "What makes you think the harder things get, the more resistant to scratches they are?" Because that's how hardness works.
But yeah, it's me that doesn't know what they're talking about...
