There are many different aspects, properties and characteristics of ceramic coatings and they differ slightly from one brand to another. We will work with you to understand your wants and needs to find the most suitable coating for your vehicle. The general idea behind ceramic coating your vehicle is to provide an increased level of protection by hardening your paints surface, enhanced clarity, gloss, increased ease of washing, added UV-resistance, and increased scratch resistance. This creates an immensely hydrophobic surface on your vehicle allowing water to fall right off and dirt has a much harder time sticking to your paint allowing your vehicle to stay cleaner substantially longer. Having your vehicle ceramic coated also makes it much more difficult for the sun to oxidize, haze, or fade your paint allowing you to park your vehicle outside confidently knowing the paint will not be affected by sun light nearly as much.

A typical ceramic coating that is properly maintained with routine maintenance washes will last as long as the advertised life of the ceramic (approx. 5-7 years est.) Important factors to consider that drastically affect the lifespan of a coating are; environmental conditions, driving style (driving behind vehicles that kick up debris), how much you drive, if you park outside, and whether or not you park near yard irrigation systems (sprinklers). To get the most out of your vehicles ceramic coating we recommend our maintenance wash package which utilizes PH balanced soaps to ensure your vehicles coating is maintained for as long as possible. At the end of the wash, we top off the service with a ceramic spray sealant to enhance the hydrophobic properties of the coating.

The prices of ceramic coatings can vary drastically because of many factors which may include: the quality of the ceramic coating such as lifespan of coating ( 1-year 3-5 year or 7 years), primary purpose of the specific ceramic: shine, protection, slickness, country of origin, and self healing characteristics. One of the most exclusive ceramic coating brands originates from Japan. Used on highly exclusive exotic cars such as Bugatti’s, Koenisegg, Ferrari’s, and Lamborghinis, Kamikaze Ceramic Coatings are unmistakably the pinnacle of coatings. If the pinnacle of ceramic coatings is not what you’re looking for, we also offer other great, price friendly ceramic coating brands such as Gyeon, and Koch Chemie.

Paint Correction

Depending on the your wants and needs we can adjust accordingly. Although, to achieve the perfect finish we recommend a 3-step polish (heavy, medium and fine) to leave your vehicles surface with a mirror-like finish. Once this has been completed, we only use a top shelf premium surface cleaner which is necessary to remove any extra compound, or residue left on the vehicle after our processes. This allows for an immensely clean surface prep for the ceramic coating to bond to.

The amount of paint correction steps is dependent upon your desired level of paint clarity. This process is the most important as your ceramic coating clarity is only as good as the paint quality beneath it. Meaning if you choose to remove 60-70% of surface scratches and swirls the coating will not fill in over to of the scratches left. Why should you get 3 steps of paint correction? If you desire is to completely remove all unwanted swirl marks, scratches, water spots, oxidation, and etching from bird droppings or bug splatter and achieve 95-100% of your vehicles paint correction, this is for you.
