CERAMIC COATINGS
 

WHAT IS IT?
 

A ceramic coating is a liquid polymer applied to a vehicle's exterior that chemically bonds with factory paint, creating a durable, semi-permanent, and hydrophobic, silica-based (SiO2) protective layer. It acts as a sacrificial barrier against UV rays, chemicals, and light scratches, while enhancing gloss and making surfaces easier to clean.​

 

​

​

  • Hydrophobic Nature: Repels water, mud, and dirt, causing them to bead and slide off, which simplifies maintenance.

  • Durability: Unlike wax that lasts weeks, ceramic coatings last for years, though they are not indestructible and can still succumb to heavy scratches or rock chips.

  • Application: Requires meticulous surface decontamination, including washing, clay bar treatment, and paint correction (polishing) before application.

  • Versatility: Can be applied to paint, wheels, glass, plastic trim, and even leather.

  • Protection: Shields paint from oxidation, bird droppings, road salt, and UV fading.

  • Deep Decontamination: Thorough cleaning, clay bar treatment, and decontamination to remove impurities.

  • Surface Perfection: Primer polishing prepares the paint for the ceramic bond.

  • Comprehensive Coverage: Meticulous, multi-technician application with high-intensity lighting to prevent high spots.

  • Surface Specific: Dedicated prep for both gloss and matte finishes. 

THE BENEFITS.
 

AND WHY?
 

Our meticulous ceramic coating process prioritizes surface preparation to ensure maximum bonding and durability. Every vehicle undergoes a deep clean—including wash, decontamination, and polishing—with special attention to non-painted surfaces. We use expert techniques and intense lighting to guarantee flawless, comprehensive application without high spots. 

Signature Ceramic Coating Package:
Experience unmatched protection and gloss with our comprehensive exterior service. This package includes a Super car Safe Chemical Decontamination Prep Wash, ensuring all contaminants are removed without harming the finish. We follow with a Primer Polish, specifically applied to enhance adhesion between your paint and the coating, ensuring maximum longevity (note: this is a surface prep step, not a paint correction for swirl removal). A single layer of Certified Ceramic Coating is meticulously applied to all exterior painted surfaces, headlights, and taillights for superior hydrophobic protection. 

Warranty: 5-Year Protection (self-maintained) or up to an "Infinite Warranty" when regularly maintained by our certified team.
