What's A Ceramic Coating?
Ceramic Coatings are liquid polymers that are applied to the exterior surface of your vehicle. The ceramic coating then chemically bonds with the vehicle’s factory paint, creating a layer of protection.
Never Wax Again...
A Ceramic Coating is a long-lasting replacement for the
traditional wax.
Unlike a traditional wax that can easily wear off and need to be reapplied, a Ceramic Coating can last for years!
While a ceramic coating adds a Slick Gloss finish, it also is more scratch and mar resistant than a normal wax.
Some brands of Ceramic Coatings you may have heard of are,

Kenzo IGL,
22ple,

BENEFITS
Ceramic Coatings Provide Many Benefits For Your Vehicle...
Ease of Maintenance
The Super Hydrophobic effect added to the exterior surface by the Coating results in less time spent cleaning and more time enjoying.
UV Protection
Protects against oxidization from exposure to large amounts of UV rays from the sun.
Sacrificial Layer
The Coating itself acts as a sacrificial layer, taking damage before letting your vehicle's surface paint be touched.
Extreme Durability
Provides excellent protection against the outdoor elements.
Long Lasting
Unlike waxes or sealants that wash away or break down over time, this coating forms a permanent adhesion to the paint and can only be removed through abrasion.
High Gloss Finish
Killer crystal clear reflection, ultra slick touch and extreme gloss year round.
How Does A
Ceramic Coating Work?
When you apply Ceramic Coatings or other types of paint protection like clear bra, you are basically adding more layers on top of your clearcoat, but these layers don't have micropores that trap dirt and debris.
Waxes and Detail Sprays attempt to do this but because of their makeup they are not able to fill the pores to the degree ceramic coatings do. Waxes and Detail Sprays end up wearing right off, whereas the ceramic coatings we install harden like a glass, are chemically resistant, and UV proof, making them difficult to remove. They can last for many years depending on how they are maintained!
Un-Protected
Protected
Ceramic Coatings Are Hydrophobic...
Once the surface is ceramic coated, it becomes hydrophobic, which basically means it repels water. Just like what you'd expect from Rain-x or traditional waterproofing, but way more effective and long lasting! This effect makes maintaining your vehicle super easy! Some consumer grade products give a hydrophobic like effect, but it is not long lasting and doesn’t provide fluid rejection like that of our professional paint protection. Some people complain that even professional paint protection loses its hydrophobic property. This is usually due to improper maintenance and can be restored with a thorough decontamination/refresher wash!
Easy To Clean
Being Super Hydrophobic, cleaning your car is super easy as water beads up and rolls right off.
The Killer Shine Of Ceramics
Since installing a ceramic coating adds slick top layers to your paint, the final finish will be a deeper, glosser look, better than any old school wax can achieve.
Long Lasting
Unlike waxes or sealants that wash away or break down over time, this coating forms a permanent adhesion to the paint and can only be removed through abrasion.
Most Important, The Protection
Industrial Grade Ceramic Coatings are most importantly a layer of protection. The Coating itself acts as a sacrificial layer, taking damage before letting your vehicle's surface paint be touched. They stop harmful UV rays that would otherwise cause oxidation. They are chemical resistant, so they help protect your paint from bug guts, bird poop, and hard water. They do provide more durability since they are stronger than your paint's clear coat.
Protection For Your
Whole Vehicle...
The cool thing is that this doesn't just apply to paint, we can also ceramic coat
glass, plastics and fabrics!
Yes! That's water rolling right off a fabric top!
What's The Process Of Getting A Ceramic Coating?
A Quick Break Down....
Decontamination
First, we do a decontamination wash to remove all containments that have accumulated on your vehicle. If this wash isn't done, the ceramic coating will not be able to bond properly to the surface. Some installers don't give you a proper decontamination wash.
Paint Correction
We then perform paint correction to remove any swirls/scratches in the paint prior to the install since once the coating is installed, you will be stuck with any scratches that were on the vehicle. Since this is mainly a visual fix, the amount of paint correction is up to you. The more paint correction we do, the more work it takes therefore, the more it will cost.
Apply The Ceramic Coating
Now it's time for the protection! We install the coating in layers. Usually, we are going to start with what we call the base layer. This layer adds the durability. Then we apply a top layer, which gives a super glossy finish and the ability to repel water. Depending on the protection you are getting, we may be installing even more layers for longer lasting results.
What Happens After
The Job Is Done?
The key now is maintenance. Luckily one of the benefits of a ceramic coating is that it makes washing your vehicle a breeze since the coating does a great job of repelling both dirt and water, but you have to remember to use proper wash methods. Not to worry as we are going to be teaching you exactly what products to use and how to wash it, this way your coating can last its maximum lifespan and even longer.
Now, If you come to notice when you wash your car that it doesn't seem to be beading up water like it used to, don't fret. This isn't necessarily because the coating isn't working anymore, in fact, it probably is working fine. What you are seeing is that the hydrophobic property isn't repelling water anymore. This is because you haven't maintained the coating well. In most cases, this can be fixed by doing a good decontamination wash and refreshing the hydrophobic property of the coating.
Is A Ceramic Coating
Scratch Proof?
Now, a Ceramic Coating isn't perfect, since you can still scratch the surface of the coating. Luckily, the coating is tougher than the clearcoat on your car so it won't scratch as easily but you still must take good care not to scratch it.
If you are concerned about scratching, then our
Revivify coating might be a better option since you get all the benefits of a traditional ceramic coating but also with a self-healing property that magically removes fine scratches. Sounds crazy, right? Learn about it here...
Our Protective Coatings Are Mind Blowing!
What About Paint Protection Film / Clear Bra?
Clear Bra is a transparent film that can be installed to your vehicle. It also gives you all the protection benefits that you would see with a ceramic coating, but it also can protect against rock chips. Not every vehicle needs Clear Bra. It's more of a case-by-case basis since sometimes it's more adequate to use a protective coating. Depending on how you drive your car, we may recommend using both clear bra and a ceramic coating in combination! If you are someone who already has Clear Bra, we can install ceramic coating to the areas you don't have it along with applying it on top of the Clear Bra film.
Vehicles With Matte Finishes?
Will a ceramic coating make my matte car glossy? No, getting a coating does not make a matte finish glossy. Traditional coatings and Revivify are transparent liquid coatings that, when applied to a surface, create a protective layer. While they can enhance the gloss and shine of automotive paint, they do not alter the inherent finish of it. When it comes to matte paint or vinyl wrap, what you will get is a more deep, clean matte look, which we love to see on matte finishes just like on this 2020 GMC Sierra Denali.
