Ceramic coating.

Multi-year paint protection applied properly. Adds gloss, makes the car easier to wash, and protects against contamination, UV and light marring.

What it does

More than gloss — a layer that does real work.

A ceramic coating is a chemical bond applied to corrected paint. It raises the surface tension of the clear coat so dirt, water spots and contamination release more easily, deepens optical clarity, and gives the paint a sacrificial layer that can be maintained for years.

It won't fix scratches and it won't make a car immortal — but applied to properly-prepared paint, it's the single best way to keep your car looking close to new over the long term.

FAQ

Common questions.

Will a ceramic coating stop scratches?

No. A coating raises wash-induced marring resistance and makes contamination easier to release — but it isn’t body armour. For rock-chip protection, paint protection film (PPF) is the right answer.

How long does it take?

Two to four days, depending on the system and how much correction the paint needs. We’ll give you a firm timeline at intake.

Can I wash a coated car myself?

Yes — with the right chemistry and a two-bucket method. We’ll walk you through it at handover. Many clients prefer to put the car on a scheduled maintenance wash.

Do you offer a warranty?

All coatings come with a written workmanship warranty. The Gtechniq CSU system also carries a manufacturer-backed warranty when maintained on schedule.

What about SUVs and 4WDs?

Add roughly $250 for SUVs and $400+ for large 4WDs. We’ll confirm the exact figure once we know the vehicle.
