Why is there so much talk about getting ceramic coating installed on your vehicle?

There are many forms of paint protection on the market like carnauba waxes and polymer paint sealants, but ceramic coating is by far the most durable option to date. Not only is it the most durable, the level of gloss it provides to your paint is unachievable by any other form of paint protection. It also makes the maintenance of keeping your vehicle clean a breeze.

How do I maintain the coating afterward?

A simple hand wash with a pH balanced soap will make your vehicle look like a professional auto detailer spent hours polishing your paint.

How long does it last on paint?

First off, to approach this subject you must understand the science behind ceramic coating. Most coatings can resist any chemical on the pH scale between pH2-pH12. Traditional carwash soaps are usually pH12 being that they are made to aggressively strip dirt off vehicles. Once your vehicle has been coated there is no reason to be aggressive anymore. That defeats the purpose of getting the vehicle coated in the first place. Therefore, if the vehicle is washed with soaps that are pH balanced (pH7) the coating will hold up as expected. No need to worry because we sell all the appropriate soaps you need to maintain it. We also offer a mobile maintenance service at your home or place of business.

So to answer this question of durability, it really depends on the type of coating that was installed, the amount of coats that were applied, and how the vehicle is being maintained.

What type of coating do we offer?

We offer three different types of coatings that are rated on hardness based on the pencil hardness scale. We offer a 5H, 9H, and 10H coating. The higher the number the more durable the coating.

Average durability based on 1 Coat being applied:

5H = 1 Year

9H= 2 Year

10H = 5 Year

Based on the combination of the type of coatings used and how many are applied we could scientifically say 10-15 years of durability, but again that really depends on how and who is maintaining the vehicle. We have created different concepts based on our 14 years of experience. The recommendations are based on your needs.

How much does it cost to have my car coated?

We charge different prices per coat based on the prep work that is needed, type of coating selected, how many coats we apply, and the size of the vehicle. There is no way to just generalize the pricing like one size fits all. During your initial consultation we can create a package to suit your budget and durability needs.
