Our Process

The Ceramic Coating Process

Professional ceramic coating requires meticulous preparation and application. Here's how we ensure flawless results on every vehicle.

1

Thorough Wash & Decontamination

We start with a comprehensive wash followed by clay bar treatment to remove embedded contaminants, tar, and industrial fallout from the paint surface.

2

Paint Correction

Using professional polishing techniques, we remove swirl marks, scratches, and oxidation to create a flawless surface for optimal coating adhesion.

3

Surface Preparation

The surface is wiped down with panel prep solution to remove any oils or residue, ensuring optimal coating adhesion.

4

Coating Application

XPEL Fusion Plus is applied panel by panel in our climate-controlled environment using precise techniques for even coverage.

5

Curing Process

The coating is given proper time to cure and bond to the surface. We use infrared curing to accelerate and strengthen the bond.

Care Instructions

Maintaining Your Ceramic Coating

Proper maintenance helps your ceramic coating perform at its best and last longer. Follow these tips to maximize your investment.

Wait Before First Wash

Allow 7 days before the first wash to let the coating fully cure and harden.

Use pH-Neutral Soap

Wash with pH-neutral car soap to maintain the coating's integrity and hydrophobic properties.

Two-Bucket Method

Use the two-bucket wash method to prevent swirl marks and scratches on your coated surface.

Avoid Automatic Washes

Skip drive-through car washes with harsh brushes that can scratch and degrade the coating.

Dry Properly

Use a clean microfiber drying towel or air blower to prevent water spots and scratching.

Annual Inspections

Bring your vehicle in annually for inspection and maintenance top-up to maximize longevity.

FAQs

Ceramic Coating Questions

Get answers to the most common questions about ceramic coating, cost, longevity, and what to expect.

How long does ceramic coating last?

Professional ceramic coatings like XPEL Fusion Plus typically last 2-5+ years depending on maintenance and environmental exposure. Premium multi-layer packages offer longer protection. Regular washing with proper techniques and annual maintenance visits help extend the coating's lifespan significantly.

Is ceramic coating worth it?

Absolutely. Ceramic coating makes washing your car dramatically easier thanks to its hydrophobic properties. It protects against environmental contaminants, UV damage, and chemical etching. The enhanced gloss gives your paint incredible depth and shine. While the upfront cost is higher than traditional wax, the long-lasting protection and reduced need for frequent detailing make it an excellent investment.

How much does ceramic coating cost?

The cost depends on the package selected and vehicle size. Entry-level packages start around $600-800, while premium multi-layer coatings with full paint correction can range from $1,200-2,500+. We provide custom quotes based on your vehicle's condition and your protection goals. Contact us for a free assessment.

What's the difference between ceramic coating and PPF?

Ceramic coating provides chemical and UV defense with enhanced gloss and easier cleaning, but doesn't guard against physical damage like rock chips. PPF is a clear physical barrier that absorbs impacts and prevents scratches. Many customers combine both for ultimate coverage: PPF on high-impact areas and ceramic coating over the entire vehicle.

Can ceramic coating be applied over PPF?

Yes! In fact, this is one of the best combinations for ultimate vehicle defense. XPEL Fusion Plus is specifically designed to work on both bare and PPF surfaces. The coating adds hydrophobic properties and enhanced gloss to your PPF while making it easier to clean.

Do I need paint correction before ceramic coating?

Surface correction is highly recommended before ceramic coating. The coating locks in whatever condition your finish is in, including any swirls, scratches, or oxidation. By correcting the surface first, you ensure the coating protects a flawless appearance, maximizing the value of your investment.
