Ceramic Coating:
Dust Loses Its Grip

It's quoted per vehicle, because the paint decides the work. A new truck that needs a light polish and a coating is a very different job from a ten-year-old daily with etched water spots and swirl marks. We look at the paint and give you one number before anything starts.

It depends on the coating, the prep, and how the vehicle is washed and stored. Professionally applied coatings are built to last years rather than months. We'll recommend a product for your vehicle and walk you through the maintenance washes that keep both the gloss and the warranty intact.

No — and anyone who tells you that is selling something. It means washing gets dramatically easier and safer: dust and hard water release during a rinse instead of needing to be scrubbed, and scrubbing is what puts swirls in paint.

No. Coatings are chemical and UV protection measured in microns — not impact protection. For chips from gravel roads and caliche leases you want paint protection film, and our sister shop Trust N Tint handles PPF.

Usually. A coating locks in whatever is underneath it, including swirls and etching, and then you're looking at those flaws for years under a layer of gloss. We assess honestly — sometimes a single-stage polish is plenty.

Yes. Wheel faces and barrels are where coatings pay off fastest because brake dust stops baking on. Glass coatings make rain and sprinkler water bead off the windshield, and trim coatings keep black plastic from going grey.
