What is ceramic coating?
Ceramic coating is a liquid polymer-based protective layer, often with nanotechnology, applied to a surface like a car's exterior to create a hard, durable, and semi-permanent bond. This glass-like layer provides enhanced protection against chemicals, UV rays, and abrasion, while also creating a hydrophobic, water-repellent surface that makes the surface easier to clean and maintain.

This, paired with proper maintenance will lead to years of a showroom like finish.
How is it done?
Installing ceramic coating, is fairly simple. However the prep work beforehand takes time, expertise, plus an eye for perfection. This combination will get bring the desired results after application. Below you'll see a breakdown of this process
Exterior Detail
Each ceramic coating, will begin with a meticulous detail. This will include a foam wash, followed by iron decontamination as well as a clay bar treatment to remove any impurities from the pores of your paint. Leaving a clean surface to be corrected in step 2.
Paint Correction
Every vehicle, even new and fresh off the delivery truck will need some form of paint correction. It could be as simple as a polish to remove transportation markings. Or it could be a 3-stage paint correction to restore older paint to like new condition. THIS, is what will bring a wet, mirror-like finish to your coating.
Ceramic Application
The final step in the process is applying the ceramic coating. Using Gtechniq products and brand new microfibers for each service, coatings can be applied to provide up to 7 years of paint protection, extreme hydrophobic properties, and dirt repellant. Say goodbye to regular waxing.
Interior Protection
Much like with the exterior coating process, this begins with a deep cleaning of all surfaces. Removing any markings or body oils trapped in the fabric/leather.
The second step is the application of Gtechniq L1v2 Leather Guard AB. This coating forms a durable, abrasion-resistant matte finish that shields your leather from wear and tear, UV rays, and dye transfer from fabrics like blue jeans. Its antibacterial properties ensure that 99.9% of bacteria are eliminated, keeping your car’s interior hygienic.
Leather Guard AB also offers anti-stain technology for light-colored leather upholstery. L1v2 creates a barrier that protects against dirt, discoloration, and abrasion for up to 12 months.
