Years of Gloss & Easy Maintenance
WHAT IS A Ceramic Coating?
A ceramic coating is the highest chemical grade form of protection and gloss for your vehicle. A true coating chemically bonds to your paint and leaves a hardened and hydrophobic layer to your surface that becomes semi-parmanent. This sacrificial layer is extremely chemical resistant and helps in offering protection from bird droppings, bug splatter, sap, and water spotting. It adds a layer of some scratch resistance and protects your car’s surface from harmful UV rays. It also makes your car much easier to keep clean due to it’s rejection of water and the elements. A ceramic coating’s chemical bond differs from waxes and (ceramic) sealants as they only sit on the paint surface and quickly wear off.
We offer options of a 3-5 year and 6-8 year coating.

Silicon Dioxide is the main and key ingredient in ceramic coatings. This is also the key ingredient found in glass to give it hardness and create the reflective property. You will find blends of other components in a coating ranging from Teflon, Titanium, and Graphene, all with unique properties. There is also a mixture of carrier ingredients that’s main purpose is to help the key ingredients have the proper bond to the paint and help with application.
It can be done. However, what many don’t realize is the prep work is 100% key to the outcome and finish of the vehicle. The paint correction process is the most critical step before ever applying the coating to ensure that your vehicles surface is as flawless as possible before installing the coating. This is where a shop with experience and knowledge come into play. Without the appropriate steps a coating can seal in all of the scratches and swirls on your finish. Also with improper installation the coating can produce streaks known as high spots that can become permanent to the surface of your coating. Without proper preparation a coating will fail prematurely and not perform correctly.
