An invisible shield for the paint.
Ceramic coating is a liquid polymer that forms a permanent or semi-permanent bond with your factory paint. It cures into an ultra-thin, glass-like layer that fills the microscopic pores in the clear coat.
The surface turns slick. It sheds water and road grime, resists UV and holds a deep gloss. It protects against environmental fallout, chemical etching and oxidation far longer than wax or sealant.
Northern California is hard on a finish: coastal moisture, inland heat and a lot of sun. A coating helps the paint resist the UV damage that dulls cars here.

Water hates it.
Run your cursor over the panel to spray it. Bare clear coat on the left, coated on the right.
On bare paint, water lies flat and clings. On a coating it pulls into tight beads that roll off and take the dirt with them.
How it goes
Four steps to a coated car.
Full service with correction and coating can run past six hours. Most of that is careful prep and cure time.
- InspectWe look the paint over to see what it needs before anything touches it.
- CorrectSwirls, scratches and oxidation polished out, so the coating seals in a clean finish.
- CoatThe coating goes on in a controlled environment and gets the time it needs to cure.
- MaintainRegular pH-neutral washes keep it glossy and beading for 3 to 5 years.
How long does a ceramic coating last?
Professional coatings last 3 to 5 years when they're maintained. Sun, how the car is washed and where it's stored all play a part. Regular pH-neutral maintenance washes keep the gloss and the water beading going.
How does it work?
It bonds to the clear coat and cures into a slick, glass-like layer. Water and grime slide off instead of sitting on the paint, and the gloss holds.
Why correct the paint first?
A coating locks in whatever is under it, swirls included. Correcting first means the finish you protect for the next few years is a clean one.
What does it cost?
Full service with paint correction and ceramic coating starts at $500. The size of the car and the state of the paint move the number, so send a photo for a real quote.
How long will I be without the car?
Full service with correction and coating can take more than 6 hours. That time goes into proper technique and letting the coating cure.
