How we do it

Paint correction first, then the coating.

A ceramic coating locks in whatever is underneath it, so we correct the paint first. Watch our installer explain how we remove swirls and defects before the coating goes on, and why it makes the finish last.

  • 01Inspect the paint and measure the clear coat
  • 02Correct swirls, water marks and defects
  • 03Apply the 3, 5 or 10-year ceramic coating

    How much is ceramic coating in Fremont?

    A ceramic coating is a hard, glossy layer that bonds to your paint and repels water, dirt, bird droppings and UV.

    What a ceramic coating does (and doesn’t)

    Does: adds deep gloss, blocks UV oxidation and fading, resists etching from bird droppings and sap, prevents hard-water spots from sprinklers, and lets dirt rinse off.

    Doesn’t: stop rock chips or deep scratches. That’s what PPF is for, and coating over PPF gives you both. Not sure which you need? Read ceramic coating vs PPF.

    Process

    How it works.

    A coating locks in whatever is under it, swirl marks included. Every coating starts with a decontamination wash, iron and tar removal, clay and a machine polish.

    1. Paint inspection under swirl-finder lights
    2. Decon wash, iron/tar removal and clay
    3. Machine polish or paint correction
    4. Coating applied in layers, then cured and inspected

    Beyond the paint

    Wheel, caliper and marine ceramic coating.

    Ceramic coating is not just for paint. We also coat wheels, calipers, glass and boats.

    • Wheel & Caliper Ceramic Coating

      Wheel and caliper ceramic coating makes brake dust rinse off. Pair it with our wheel repair.

    • Marine Ceramic Coating

      Marine ceramic coating for boats helps resist water spots and oxidation. Call us for a quote on your boat.

    • Windshield Protection

      Glass coating and windshield protection keep rain and road film off the glass.

    • Vehicle Aftercare

      Avoid washing for 7 days after pickup while the coating cures. We go over how to wash it and what to use.

    How much does ceramic coating cost in Fremont?

    Pricing depends on your vehicle, film and coverage. Call (650) 461-0442 or request a free quote and we will give you a written price, usually the same day.

    Which coating should I choose?

    The 3-year coating suits leases and daily drivers, the 5-year is the long-term sweet spot for most owners, and the 10-year is for cars you plan to keep. All three look the same on day one; the difference is how long it lasts.

    Do I need paint correction before a coating?

    Pricing depends on your vehicle, film and coverage. Call (650) 461-0442 or request a free quote and we will give you a written price, usually the same day.

    How long does the car stay at the shop?

    Plan on 1–3 days depending on the coating and paint condition. Avoid washing for 7 days after pickup while it fully cures.

    Can you ceramic coat over PPF?

    Yes, and we recommend it. Coating over PPF makes the film more stain-resistant, glossier and easier to clean.
