Round water beads sitting on dark coated car paint

Studio only · from $1,195

Ceramic coating

A hard, slick layer that sheds dust, water, and bird droppings. Ours starts with correction and cures indoors.

How we do it

A ceramic coating bonds to your clear coat and makes it slick. Water beads up and rolls off. Dust has less to grip. Bird droppings and hard-water spots wipe away before they can etch. Washing takes about half the time.

A coating locks in whatever is under it, swirls included. So every coating we do starts with decontamination and at least a one-step correction. Then the car cures for 24 hours inside our studio, away from dust and the afternoon sun.

How sharply water beads on a fresh coating. Higher sheds water faster.

The process

  1. 01

    Decontaminate

    A full wash, iron remover, and clay so the coating bonds to clean paint.

  2. 02

    Correct

    At least a one-step polish, because a coating seals in what is underneath.

  3. 03

    Coat

    Applied one small section at a time, leveled, and checked under light.

  4. 04

    Cure and check

    24 hours indoors. We see you again at 30 days for a check-up wash.

Straight talk

A coating is not armor. It will not stop rock chips or door dings, and brush car washes wear it down fast. For chips, look at paint protection film. For long life, wash gently or let a membership do it.

Questions we hear

How long will it last in Arizona?

Most 3-year coatings stay strong for about 2 to 3 years here with gentle washing. Heat, UV, and brush car washes shorten that. A yearly check and booster keep it working.

Do I still need to wash the car?

Yes, just less often and with less effort. Use a pH-neutral soap and skip the brush washes. Our Coated membership handles it for you.
