Why Ceramic
Wax Wipes Off. Sealant Wears Off. Ceramic Bonds In.
Ceramic coating is a liquid polymer that chemically bonds to your clear coat, forming a permanent glass-like layer instead of sitting on top like wax. That's the difference between reapplying every few weeks and driving away protected for years.
| Carnauba Wax | Paint Sealant | Ceramic Coating | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Lasts | 4–6 weeks | 3–6 months | 5–9 years |
| Hardness added | None | Minimal | Up to 9H |
| UV / oxidation guard | Weak | Moderate | Strong |
| Hydrophobic beading | Fades fast | Moderate | Sustained |
| Swirl / chemical resistance | None | Low | High |
| Cost over 5 years | $400–$600 | $500–$900 | One-time investment |

The Process
How We Get To 9H
02
Paint Correction
Machine polish removes swirls, water spots and light scratches so the coating locks in clarity, not damage.
03
Coating Application
Coating is hand-applied panel by panel in a controlled bay, then leveled and inspected under raking light.
04
Cure & Handoff
Vehicle cures for 24–48 hrs before pickup. You leave with a written warranty and a wash-care guide.

Questions We Get Most
Before You Book
How long does ceramic coating actually last on a daily driver?+
Our Essential package is rated for 2 years, Signature for 5, and Elite Graphene for 7–9 years, depending on wash habits, parking, and mileage. All coatings come with a written warranty so the timeline isn't a guess.
Will ceramic coating stop rock chips or scratches?+
No coating prevents physical impact damage — for that, paint protection film (PPF) is the right tool, and we can combine both. Ceramic's job is chemical and UV protection, swirl resistance, and keeping the surface easier to clean.
Do you work on exotic or matte-finish paint?+
Yes — matte, satin wrap, and exotic paints need coating-safe products and lower buffer pressure, which is exactly what our correction stages are calibrated for. We'll flag anything paint-specific during your free assessment.
How soon can I drive or wash the car after coating?+
The car can be driven immediately but shouldn't get wet for 24–48 hours while the coating fully cures. We'll send you home with a simple care sheet covering the first two weeks.
Do you offer pricing for dealerships coating multiple vehicles?+
Yes, we run a volume program for dealer and fleet accounts with priority scheduling so vehicles spend less time off the lot. Reach out for a rate sheet.
