Gloss that lasts. Washing that's easy.
A ceramic coating bonds to your clear coat and forms a hard, slick, hydrophobic layer. Florida sun, salt air, bugs and bird droppings sit on top of the coating instead of eating into the paint — and dirt rinses off with far less effort.
Quoted per vehicle after a quick look at the paint. Coating requires paint correction first on most cars.
What a ceramic coating actually does.
Not a miracle; a very good, very durable layer of protection.
UV & fade protection
Blocks the sun that dulls and oxidizes clear coat — the biggest paint killer in Southwest Florida.
Chemical resistance
Bird droppings, bugs, tree sap and salt spray are far less likely to etch when they land on coating instead of paint.
Hydrophobic surface
Water beads and rolls off, taking dirt with it. Washing takes less time and less scrubbing.
Deeper gloss
A coated, corrected finish has a wet, glassy look that a wax can't match and doesn't wash off in a month.
Easier maintenance
Pairs perfectly with the $180 monthly plan — the coating keeps the car cleaner between visits.
Long-term value
Protects resale value by keeping the original paint in better shape for years, not weeks.
Done right, or not at all.
Decontaminate
Foam wash, iron remover and clay bar strip everything bonded to the paint.
Correct
Machine polishing removes swirls and oxidation — coating locks in whatever is underneath, so this step matters.
Prep & apply
Panel wipe to remove polishing oils, then the coating is applied panel by panel and leveled by hand.
Cure
The coating needs time to harden. We'll tell you exactly how long to keep it dry and unwashed.
Good questions.
How long does a ceramic coating last?
It depends on the product and how the car is cared for; consumer-grade coatings are typically rated for a year or more, professional coatings for several years. We'll recommend a coating based on how you use the car and quote it accordingly.
Do I still need to wash the car?
Yes — a coating makes washing easier and safer for the paint; it doesn't make the car self-cleaning. Regular maintenance washes keep the coating performing.
Does it stop rock chips and scratches?
No. A coating resists light swirls and chemical etching, but it is not a physical shield. Paint protection film does that job.
Why do you need to do paint correction first?
A coating seals in the surface as it is. Coating over swirls and haze locks them in — correction first is what gives the glassy result.
How much does it cost?
It varies with vehicle size, paint condition and the coating chosen, so we quote after seeing the car. Call or text with the year, make, model and a couple of photos and we'll give you a straight number.
