WHY CHOOSE A CERAMIC COATING?
We believe your vehicle deserves the best protection possible — not just for looks, but for lasting performance and peace of mind. Ceramic coatings are one of the most advanced and effective ways to preserve your vehicle’s finish, keeping it cleaner, glossier, and better protected from the elements!
WHat does it provide?
1. Long-Lasting Durability
Ceramic coatings are designed to last for years, not months. While wax might fade after a few washes, a properly applied coating provides protection for two to five years or more, depending on the product and maintenance routine.
2. Superior Paint Protection
It shields your car against:
- UV rays that cause fading and oxidation
- Chemical stains from acidic contaminants
- Minor scratches and swirl marks
- Water spots and mineral deposits
3. Easier Cleaning and Maintenance
Ceramic coatings are hydrophobic, meaning they repel water and dirt. When you wash your car, you’ll notice that water beads up and rolls right off, carrying dirt and grime with it.
This not only makes washing faster but also helps keep your vehicle cleaner between washes. You’ll spend less time scrubbing and more time enjoying that mirror-like shine.
4. Intensified, Glossy Shine
Beyond protection, ceramic coatings deliver a rich, reflective finish that enhances the color depth of your paint. Whether you drive a sleek black sedan or a bright red sports car, the coating will make it pop with a gloss that’s hard to achieve through waxing alone.
5. Great Value Over Time
While a ceramic coating may require an upfront investment, it pays for itself through reduced maintenance, fewer paint correction services, and long-lasting protection. It’s one of the smartest ways to maintain your car’s appearance and resale value.
Our Ceramic Coating Process
1. Full Decontamination Wash
Every coating service begins with a deep cleaning. We perform a hand wash to remove surface dirt and grime, followed by a clay bar treatment to pull out embedded contaminants from the paint. Finally, we use a chemical iron removal process to eliminate microscopic metal particles that can cause rust or paint defects.
This step ensures the surface is perfectly clean and smooth — an essential foundation for the coating to bond effectively.
2. Paint Correction
Before applying the coating, we offer a 1 to 2-step polishing process. This removes light scratches, swirl marks, and oxidation, revealing the true depth and clarity of your vehicle’s paint.
Not only does this boost your car’s gloss, but it also ensures the coating adheres evenly for maximum longevity and performance. Think of it as resetting your paint before locking in the shine.
3. Surface Preparation
Once the polishing is complete, we wipe the vehicle down with an alcohol-based prep spray. This removes any leftover oils or residues, leaving a completely clean surface for the ceramic coating to bond to.
4. Application of the Ceramic Coating
Finally, we carefully apply the ceramic coating to all painted surfaces. Using precise techniques, we ensure even coverage and proper curing. The coating forms a chemical bond with the paint, creating a resilient, long-lasting protective layer.
5. Curing
A 24-48 hour time window for curing allows the coating to completely harden and bond to the paint.
how to care for your coating
Ceramic coatings are low-maintenance, but they’re not “set it and forget it.” With proper care, you can maximize their lifespan and keep your car looking its best for years.
Here are a few simple maintenance tips we share with our clients:\
- Wash regularly using a pH-neutral car shampoo.
- Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaning tools.
- Dry the car after washing to prevent water spots.
- Use a ceramic-safe spray every few months to refresh hydrophobic properties.
- Avoid automatic car washes, which can scratch or dull the coating.
At Davis Detailing Services, we’re always happy to recommend products and maintenance schedules to keep your coating performing at its best.
