Ceramic Coating
Years of gloss and protection for your vehicle's paint
Ceramic coating is a liquid polymer applied by hand to your vehicle's exterior. Once cured, it forms a semi-permanent, glass-like shield chemically bonded to the clear coat — repelling water, dirt, UV rays, and contaminants while locking in a deep, wet-look gloss that waxes simply can't match.

The Science Behind Ceramic Coating
Unique product knowledge that sets our work apart.
SiO2 — The Active Ingredient
Our coatings are built on silicon dioxide (SiO2), the same chemistry found in glass. SiO2 forms a cross-linked nanostructure that fills microscopic pores in the clear coat, creating a slick, hydrophobic surface that resists oxidation, acid rain, and bird droppings far longer than traditional carnauba or synthetic waxes.
Hydrophobic Self-Cleaning Effect
A properly coated surface measures a contact angle of 110° or higher, meaning water beads up and rolls off — taking loose dirt with it. This self-cleaning effect reduces wash frequency and the friction that causes swirl marks, keeping your finish cleaner between washes.
9H Pencil Hardness
Our coatings cure to a 9H pencil hardness rating, the top of the industry scale. This added hardness helps resist light scratching, marring from improper washing, and the micro-abrasions that dull paint over time.
UV & Thermal Resistance
Utah's high-altitude sun and seasonal temperature swings break down unprotected clear coat, causing fading and oxidation. Ceramic coating acts as a sacrificial barrier against UV rays and thermal cycling, preserving the depth and clarity of your paint for years.
Our Process
A methodical approach — no shortcuts, no compromise.
Inspection & Assessment
We evaluate paint thickness, contamination, and existing defects under direct lighting to build a tailored correction and coating plan.
Decontamination Wash
A pH-neutral foam bath, clay bar treatment, and iron remover strip embedded contaminants so the coating bonds to bare, clean clear coat.
Paint Correction
Machine polishing removes swirl marks, oxidation, and light scratches to restore clarity before coating — coating locks in the finish, so the paint must be flawless first.
Panel Wipe & Coating
An IPA panel wipe removes polish residue. Coating is applied panel-by-panel in a controlled cross-hatch pattern, then leveled for an even film.
Cure & Inspection
The coating cures under controlled humidity. We inspect every panel under specialized lighting for high spots before final delivery.
