CERAMIC COATING
Gloss, protection, easier washing
Coating options are listed at $300–$1200. Request a vehicle-specific quote covering the required paint preparation and the coating you choose.
What to expect
Ceramic coating adds a durable protective layer with a slick, glossy finish and water-repelling behavior. It makes routine cleaning easier, but the vehicle still needs proper washing.
At least a Paint Enhancement Package is required before application. Heavier defects may need multi-step correction. Coating itself does not remove scratches or make paint scratch-proof.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does ceramic coating last?
The lifespan depends on the coating used, how the vehicle is maintained, and how often it is exposed to harsh conditions. Proper washing and maintenance will help the coating last longer.
Do I need paint correction before ceramic coating?
Yes, at minimum we require a Paint Enhancement Package before ceramic coating. This helps improve gloss and prevents defects from being locked underneath the coating.
Does ceramic coating remove scratches?
No. Ceramic coating protects the paint but does not remove scratches. Paint enhancement or paint correction is needed before coating to improve defects.
Is ceramic coating worth it?
Yes, ceramic coating is worth it if you want long-term paint protection, easier washing, better gloss, and a cleaner-looking vehicle.
Can ceramic coating go on a new car?
Yes. New cars can still have light swirls, transport marks, dealership wash marks, or contamination, so proper prep is still recommended before coating.
