Prep is most of the job

A coating bonds to whatever it touches, so the paint has to be perfectly clean. Every coating starts with a full wash, iron remover and clay bar, then an inspection. If the paint has swirls or oxidation, we recommend correcting it first so the coating seals in a glossy finish rather than the defects.

What a ceramic coating does

A ceramic coating forms a hard, slick layer over the clear coat. It is not armor, and it does not stop rock chips, but it makes a real day-to-day difference in a rainy climate.

  • Strong water beading and sheeting
  • Dirt and road grime release more easily when washing
  • Added gloss and depth
  • Resistance to UV fading, bird droppings and tree sap etching

Coating versus wax

Wax looks great but wears off within weeks to months. A coating lasts far longer between applications, which is why many owners of new vehicles, dark paint colors and work trucks choose it.

How much does ceramic coating cost?

Ceramic Coating starts at $500. We give you a clear quote before any work begins. The main factors that shape the price of ceramic coating are:

  • Vehicle size
  • Paint condition and whether correction is needed
  • Coating product and number of layers
  • Wheels, glass or trim coating add-ons

Ask us a question
How much is a ceramic coating?

Ceramic Coating is $500 and includes an exterior detail. Ceramic Coating + 1-Step Polish is $750 for paint with light swirl marks. Heavier paint correction is quoted separately.

Does a ceramic coating replace washing?

No. A coated car still needs regular safe washes, but it gets dirty more slowly and cleans up much faster. Our coating gives up to 5 years of protection with proper care.

Can you ceramic coat a car outdoors?

Coatings need a dry surface and the right temperature to cure. In wet weather we schedule around the forecast or use covered parking at your location.

Does ceramic coating stop scratches and rock chips?

It adds some resistance to light marring, but it does not stop rock chips or deep scratches.
