Ceramic Coating

We are manufacturer certified and approved to provide high-quality Ceramic Coatings and with that, we also provide high-quality Paint Correction as standard. This ensures your vehicle will look its best. We recommend paint correction before coating any vehicle new or old. Even new can have swirl marks.

Our Ceramic Coatings protect against many different elements that are a constant threat to your vehicle’s exterior such as:

  • Weather induced fading

  • Loss of gloss

  • Acid rain

  • Bird waste

  • Tree sap

  • Insect damage

  • Sun UV rays

  • Hard water spots

  • Brake dust

  • Paint overspray

  • Fuel stains

  • De-icing agents/road salt

 

Once your vehicle has been coated, it will have a deep high gloss finish, feel smoother and look better than new for years to come and eliminates the need for any polishing or waxing. Coated surfaces are further protected by having oleo phobic, stain-water repellence, and hydrophobic features, their main benefits are water repellence, stain repellence, scratch resistance, and waterproofing.

We offer a comprehensive range of the best professional ceramic coatings on the market, including coatings for:

  • Alloy Wheels

  • Interiors

  • Glass.

We offer a free, no obligation, vehicle inspection.

Pricing starts from £590 + Vat. and include our ULTIMATE paint correction. Contact us for more information.

 
 

Ceramic Coating Mainttenance

Do Ceramic Coatings Require Any Maintenance? Absolutely.

Ceramic coatings are phenomenal products. However, myths circulating throughout the detailing industry have made some people believe that ceramic coatings are some alien material that exerts a force field around the car, repelling everything from dirt to scratches.

We need to address a few of these misconceptions.

 

  • Ceramic Coatings Prevent All Scratches.

    Ceramic coatings are hard and will resist abrasion but don’t expect miracles.

  • Ceramic Coatings are Self-Cleaning

    This is far from the truth. Ceramic coatings make it harder for dust and contamination to stick to the surface, helping your car stay cleaner for longer. However, dirt, brake dust, water spots, and other road grime will eventually build up on the surface of the coating itself, inhibiting its hydrophobic properties and dulling its shine.

    While you still need to wash your vehicle, ceramic coatings make this an absolute breeze. You should always use a Ceramic Shampoo or even go touchless if you follow a regular cleaning schedule.

  • Ceramic Coatings are Indestructible

    When maintained well, high-quality ceramic coatings will last for years. Even so, indestructible they are not.

    As with anything in life, they will eventually wear away. It depends heavily on the quality of the product and the initial quality of the installation.

    Moreover, depending on how and where you drive your vehicle, the coatings can wear off considerably quicker. If you go off-roading or drifting, or if you wash your car rarely or use an automatic car wash with strong chemicals and hard brushes, the longevity of your coating will be reduced.

 

How To Wash a Ceramic Coated Vehicle

Ceramic coatings need to cure for a minimum of 24 hours, depending on the product, before you can drive the vehicle. However, you need to resist washing it for another 2-3 weeks after that as the coating continues to cure to its final strength.

After this, you should wash your ceramic coating at least twice a month to remove the film and grime picked up from your daily driving. Of course, this is only a guideline and you should wash your vehicle any time it gets particularly dirty.

A regular car wash using a ceramic shampoo is perfect.

Strong acidic and alkaline cleaners can potentially degrade your coating depending on its contents. Ceramic products contain between 15-95% SiO2 particles.

Those on the lower end also contain various binding polymers that can be susceptible to acids or bases, just like paint sealants and waxes wash away with hard detergents.

High-end ceramic coatings that we use come with 90% + SiO2 particles and are fairly resistant to acidic and alkaline cleaners. However, if you wash your vehicle regularly, you shouldn’t need to use these often, if at all.

Improper washing techniques will scratch and mar the surface of your vehicle regardless of whether you have a ceramic coating. The two-bucket method still applies. Clean rags, back and forth motions, lots of lubrication, and little to no pressure will keep the finish swirl-free.

Avoid Automatic Car Washes if you can. Mechanical ones use hard brushes, which can scratch the paint, whilst the touchless ones use harsh chemicals to dissolve all the contamination. Either way, your ceramic coatings will be subjected to increased wear.

Ceramic coatings make the car easy to clean, but not if you let all kinds of crap sit there marinating on the surface for weeks.

Any contamination will inhibit the hydrophobic and non-stick properties of the coating, accumulating even more dirt and grime.

 Depending on your usage and driving environment, you will need to perform a decontamination process every 3 to 6 months.

You don’t need to put wax or paint sealant on top of your ceramic coating. It already exhibits all of their protective and hydrophobic properties in much greater intensity.

In fact, stacking the products will only hinder the properties of the ceramic coating underneath, making it ineffective.

Our Ceramic Coating Maintenance Service will decontaminate the paintwork, check the condition of the ceramic coating and top up the coating if required.

You’re left with a super slippery surface with extra anti-static and hydrophobic properties, along with a fantastic shine. A must do to protect the coating and your investment.
