What is a Ceramic Coating?
A ceramic coating is a cutting-edge advancement in automotive protection. It is a clear liquid polymer that, when applied to your vehicle's paint, forms a durable and transparent layer. This layer bonds chemically with the paint, creating a semi-permanent protective barrier.
In essence, a ceramic coating is like an invisible armor that shields your car's paint from the elements while enhancing its overall aesthetic. It's a high-performance alternative to traditional waxes and sealants, making it a top choice for those in Wake Forest who want their vehicles to look pristine and stay protected for years to come.

Our Ceramic Coating Services Pair Perfectly With A Paint Correction
While not mandatory, we strongly recommend pairing our ceramic coating services with a paint correction. This combination delivers superior results, addressing imperfections, enhancing durability, and ensuring a smoother, glossier finish. It also prevents any pre-existing scratches and swirls from being sealed beneath the coating.
Should You Consider a Paint Correction?
If you prioritize added gloss and a near-perfect finish, a paint correction is worth considering. However, if you primarily seek enhanced protection and are less concerned about existing scratches and swirls, a ceramic coating alone may suffice.
Benefits of a Ceramic Coating... In Detail
Exceptional Protection
What are the biggest threats to car paint?
-
Scratches and Swirls - Scratches and swirls form as a result of contact with abrasive materials or improper washing methods. Daily driving alone is enough to cause swirl marks to form due to seemingly harmless dust and debris that's found on the roads. Improper washing and drying methods and automatic car washes are a few other main culprits when it comes to scratches and swirl marks. By choosing a 9H ceramic coating, you significantly reduce the risk of scratches and swirls, ensuring your car's finish remains in top-notch condition, free from these common imperfections.
-
UV Rays - Harmful UV rays cause paint fading, oxidation, and clear coat damage over time. This results in a decrease in glossiness and over time causes car paint to have an almost matte and gritty texture. In most cases, oxidized paint can be restored with a paint correction but it gets costly. A protective measure like a ceramic coating is a great way to safeguard the exterior from UV damage and maintain your vehicle's visual appeal.
-
Bird Droppings and Bug Guts - These pose a threat to a vehicle's exterior due to their acidic nature. They can cause staining and in severe cases, paint erosion. A barrier between bird droppings and bug guts is a great way to protect against stains and unsightly damage.
-
Tree Sap - Once tree sap comes into contact with car paint and crystalizes, it becomes very difficult to remove. It becomes an eye sore, especially if there is a large amount of spots covering your vehicle. A ceramic coating will allow the tree sap to be removed more easily.
-
Water Spots - Water spots form when mineral deposits found in tap water are left to dry on the surface of your vehicle. If left unaddressed, water spots become etched into the paint or clear coat resulting in permanent damage that can mar the vehicle's appearance. The hydrophobic properties of a ceramic coating will reduce the risk of water spot etching.
Long-Lasting Shine
A vehicle's shine or glossiness is often the first thing that catches people's attention, and maintaining that head-turning luster can be a challenge. When you choose to get a ceramic coating applied, you're not just getting a temporary sparkle; you're investing in a candied, wet-gloss shine that stands the test of time.
Easier Cleaning & Reduced Maintenance
With their hydrophic properties that repel water and contaminants, and resistance to stains and chemicals, your vehicle will require less time and effort to stay looking its best. Enjoy the convenience of a coating that allows you to spend less of your precious time maintaining your car, and more time appreciating your vehicle's impeccable appearance.
Improved Resale Value
Our services not only enhance the immediate aesthetics and protection of your vehicle but also make a big impact on its long-term value. By investing in a ceramic coating, you're effectively safeguarding your vehicle against the test of time and the elements. This preservation of your vehicle's appearance and structural integrity can translate to a higher resale value when the time comes to part ways with your cherished ride. Maximize your investment by choosing our services and watch as your vehicle retains its allure and desirability, ensuring a better return on your initial purchase.
