Discover the Detailist Difference today!
A: Ceramic coating is a liquid polymer that chemically bonds with your car’s paint, creating a durable, hydrophobic layer of protection. This coating enhances gloss, repels water and dirt, and guards against environmental damage like UV rays, bird droppings, and minor scratches.
A: The lifespan of a ceramic coating depends on the product used and maintenance. At Detailist, we offer premium coatings lasting up to 9 years with proper care, providing long-term protection and shine.
A: Not at all! PPF is designed to be nearly invisible. In fact, it enhances your vehicle’s look with options like high-gloss or matte finishes, depending on your preference.
A: Ceramic coatings provide minor scratch resistance but are not a substitute for Paint Protection Film (PPF) when it comes to impact protection from rock chips or major abrasions.
A: Unlike waxes or sealants, which sit on top of the paint and wear off quickly, ceramic coatings bond to the surface for long-lasting protection, deeper gloss, and superior durability.
A: Absolutely! We can apply ceramic coatings to wheels, trim, glass, and even interior surfaces to extend protection across your entire vehicle.
A: Use a pH-balanced car shampoo, avoid harsh chemicals, and dry your car thoroughly to prevent water spots. For optimal results, ask about our maintenance services to keep your coating performing at its best.
A: Yes! Ceramic coatings not only protect your vehicle but also enhance its appearance and reduce maintenance efforts. They preserve your car’s value and provide a superior finish compared to traditional protection methods.
At Detailist, we tailor our ceramic coating process to meet the unique needs of every customer. Whether you’re looking for a flawless showroom finish or prefer a more practical approach with partial paint correction, we’ve got you covered. Our process begins with a comprehensive inspection of your vehicle, followed by a thorough decontamination using advanced exterior detailing techniques to remove dirt, tar, and other contaminants. For those seeking perfection, we use professional-grade lighting to identify even the smallest imperfections and perform detailed paint correction to achieve a flawless surface. For customers who opt for partial correction, we focus on key areas to improve the overall appearance while maintaining cost efficiency. No matter your preference, we prepare your vehicle to ensure the ceramic coating bonds effectively and performs its best.
Once your vehicle is fully prepped, our skilled team meticulously applies your selected ceramic coating by hand using precision applicator pads.
