Water Off A Duck's Back
That's not a saying around here, it's the whole point. A real ceramic coating bonds to your paint so rain, salt and road grime slide straight off, for years, not weeks.
So What Is A Ceramic Coating?
Wax sits on top of your paint and washes off in a month or two. A ceramic coating is a liquid glass that chemically bonds to the clear coat and hardens into a permanent layer.
That layer is slicker than your paint, harder than your paint, and it doesn't care about UV, bird droppings, tree sap or the salt they dump on Route 13 every winter. Water beads up and rolls off, taking the dirt with it.

Ceramic Coating Packages
Every install starts with a full decontamination wash and clay treatment, because a coating locks in whatever is underneath it. Prices are starting rates for cars & small SUVs.
Trucks, 3-row SUVs and heavily defected paint are quoted on the confirmation call. Boat & RV coatings are priced per foot, see Boat & RV.
How A Coating Day Goes
A coating isn't a wash-and-go service. Here's the honest timeline.
Strip & decontaminate
Full hand wash, iron remover, and a clay bar over every panel to pull out what washing leaves behind.
Correct the paint
On the correction tiers we machine-polish out swirls and scratches. This is the step that actually creates the gloss.
Panel wipe
Every surface gets wiped with a prep solution so the coating bonds to bare clear coat, not polish oils.
Coat & cure
Applied panel by panel and levelled by hand. Then it needs to stay dry, so we plan the weather with you.
Before You Book A Coating
You still have to wash it
A coating makes washing easy, it doesn't make it optional. Every other week keeps it performing.
Skip the brush tunnels
Automatic brushes will scratch straight through a coating. Touchless or hand wash only.
Correction is the real cost
The coating bottle is cheap. The hours of polishing underneath it are what you're paying for.
We come to you
Most coating shops make you drop off for a day. We bring the setup to your driveway or lot instead.
Weekends included
We're not a Monday-to-Friday operation. If the weekend is when you're home, that's when we come.
No surprise invoices
You see an estimate when you book, and we confirm the final number on the phone before we show up.
Protect The Investment
A coating performs best when it gets a proper maintenance wash on a schedule. Our Maintenance Program puts your vehicle on a rotation based on your mileage, so the coating keeps beading the way it did on day one, and you never think about it again.
