Should I have my Car Ceramic Coated after I have paint/body work done?
Yes, however timing is very important. Freshly laid paint needs time to fully cure before a ceramic coating can be applied. Typically, this curing period is about 30–90 days, depending on the type of paint and products used by the body shop. Once cured, applying a ceramic coating is an excellent way to lock in that fresh finish, add gloss, and protect your investment long-term. We can help you confirm the right timing and schedule your coating so it bonds properly and lasts as intended.
Should I have my Car Ceramic Coated with the Service of Paint Correction?
Absolutely. Paint correction and ceramic coating work best together. Correction removes swirls, light scratches, and imperfections in the clear coat, creating a smooth, glossy surface. The ceramic coating then bonds to that corrected surface, locking in the shine and protecting it for years. Without correction, the coating would simply “seal in” any existing defects, making them more noticeable. Pairing the two services ensures the best results and the longest-lasting finish.
Is ceramic coating the best protection for my paint?
Ceramic coatings provide outstanding protection and a high level of gloss. While no coating can make your paint completely scratch-proof, ceramic coatings offer excellent durability and resistance to swirls, light scratches, and environmental contaminants like dirt, bird droppings, and road grime. It’s one of the best options for long-term protection and keeping your vehicle looking its best.
Can I wash my car after the coating is installed?
Once the coating is applied, the vehicle should stay dry for the first 48 hours to allow it to fully cure. We recommend avoiding washing your car for the first two weeks. To make things easier, your first wash after the coating is on us so we can check how it’s holding up.
Do you have a shop?
We don’t operate out of a physical shop, we’re 100% mobile! That means we bring professional-grade detailing and ceramic coating services directly to you. If you have a garage, we can apply and leave the vehicle in there during curing, although having a garage isn't necessary. If not, we provide a portable canopy that we use during the installation to ensure the process goes smoothly.
Can ceramic coating replace my clear coat?
No, ceramic coating cannot fix issues like chipping or fading from clear coat failure. If your clear coat is damaged, a repaint or new replacement panels are the only solutions.
Can I get the coating without the prep work or paint correction?
We do not apply coatings without the proper prep work and paint correction. Without those steps, you won’t experience the full benefits of the ceramic coating, so we always ensure your vehicle is thoroughly prepared before applying it.

It’s one of the top options. Coatings resist swirls, light scratches, and contaminants while delivering long-lasting gloss. Nothing is scratch-proof, but coatings keep your car looking its best.

Avoid water for 48 hours and washing for two weeks. To help, we include your first wash free and check the coating’s performance at that time.

No - coatings don’t repair failing clear coat. If it’s chipping or faded, repainting is required before protection can be applied.
