Ceramic Coatings
We offer a variety of ceramic coating and protection solutions.
Ceramic coatings provide your vehicle the greatest protection from mother nature, and generally a candy coating, reflective, deep gloss, as well as INSANE water beading (coating dependent).
Ceramic coatings make your vehicle EASY to clean too!
Given we provide mobile detailing services, we only offer coatings that are best suited for application in generally unpredictable environments.
If you desire, we will happily utilize your garage to prepare and ceramic coat your vehicle to expand your coating options. More details are below!
Discounts are provided for our ceramic coating maintenance program, and will be discussed with your during the quote process.
Ceramic Coating Options
1-Year Ceramic Coating
These coatings typically contain less of the solids that make up the coating, and have a greater volume of transfer solution, as compared to a 3 or 5 year coating. These coatings generally provide a year or more of protection. They also provide very impressive GLOSS and SLICKNESS!
3-Year Ceramic Coating
Coatings in this category generally excel in aspects of water behavior, aka beading, or more robust water spot prevention, or both. They certainly provide gloss and protection, and are well worth the investment.
5-Year Ceramic Coating
These coatings generally provide robust water behavior, excellent chemical resistance, CRAZY GLOSS, slickness and durability. These coatings excel at keeping mother nature at bay, whether it be snow, sleet, rain or wildfire ash fallout. Some of our offerings in this category will require the use of your garage. Your vehicle will require 4 hours of cure time before driving it.
Other Coatings
If you are willing and able to provide us access to your garage, and can allow the coating to cure in your garage, we can provide a few additional options for your ceramic coating. Contact us to learn more!
Ceramic Coating Requirements
To install a ceramic coating, we will have to, at an absolute minimum, conduct a paint enhancement polish. We highly recommend at least one-step polish to get your paint in beautiful condition before locking it in with a ceramic coating. Each vehicle is unique, and we take that into consideration. We will communicate with you every step of the way to recommend the best path forward to help ensure you get the most from your ceramic coating!
Additionally, we will need to install your coating during weather that is above 50° F, with no precipitation anticipated for at least 24 hours (48 hours recommended), and in a shaded area. We will move your vehicle around if necessary to ensure shaded installation.
What's the difference between a one-step and paint enhancement polish?
*Prior to polishing, we always complete a paint decontamination process that includes a clay media treatment, and iron/fallout removal*
Ceramic Coating Maintenance
Ceramic coatings do require regular maintenance washes, and occasional decontamination to ensure their longevity. We cannot guarantee the life of any coating without a maintenance wash agreement. We will need to detail your vehicle at least quarterly, and conduct an annual decontamination wash to ensure the longevity of your coating. If your schedule and ours cannot sync up for this occasionally, that is okay, and we will work with you!
Discounts for our maintenance washes are provided for customers that opt for ceramic coatings
