Ceramic Coating

    Deeper gloss.
    Easier wash.
    Years of protection.

    A chemically bonded layer that locks onto your clearcoat and repels water, dirt, UV, and road grime. Your paint stays glossy for years. Washing becomes much easier.

    The Problem

    Your wax is gone
    in six weeks.

    Traditional wax lasts a month, maybe two. Then it's back to dull paint, hard-water spots, and oxidation eating at your clearcoat. Ceramic is a different class of protection. Measured in years.

    The clearcoat underneath stays cleaner, glossier, and chemically shielded. Wash time drops in half. Re-waxing is gone for good.

    What Coating Actually Does

    Four ways coating outperforms wax.

    01Benefit
    Hydrophobic

    Water sheets off

    Water sheets off. Dirt struggles to bond. Your wash time drops.
    02Benefit
    UV Shield

    Slows oxidation

    UV breaks down clearcoat over time. Coating slows the fade, the chalking, and the loss of depth.
    03Benefit
    Chemical

    Etch resistance

    Bird droppings, sap, and bug acid have a harder time etching coated paint.
    04Benefit
    Gloss+

    Deeper finish

    The finish looks deeper because it actually is.

    Proof

    See the difference.

    Same hood, same water. Left side uncoated. Right side coated.

    Red car hood split down the middle. Left half uncoated with water clinging and sheeting unevenly. Right half ceramic coated with water beading up and rolling off.

    HOW A COATING JOB RUNS

    Three days of real prep work. Years of protection.

    1. 01

      Decon & wash

      Foam pre-wash, iron fallout remover, clay bar. The coating only bonds to a chemically clean surface.

    2. 02

      Paint correction

      Minimum single-stage polish, up to multi-stage on Elite. A coating locks in whatever is underneath, so we make sure it's glossy first.

    3. 03

      Panel-by-panel application

      Coating applied in a climate-controlled bay, leveled with microfiber, cured under IR lamps. Every panel checked under 3-point lighting.
