CERAMIC COATING NEAR YOU. DISCOVER THE BENEFITS.

What is a Ceramic Coating?

A ceramic coating, also known as nano-ceramic coating, is a liquid product applied to the exterior surfaces of your vehicle. It chemically bonds with the clear coat layer of paint that creates a semi-permanent protective and transparent layer. This ceramic coating provides a shield against UV rays, environmental contaminants, bird droppings, tree sap, road salts, and other pollutants that can damage your car’s paint.

The Benefits of a Ceramic Coating

Protection: A ceramic coating offers protection against light scratches, swirl marks, and minor abrasions. Its hydrophobic nature ensures water beads and dirt won’t stick to the surface, making it easy to clean.



UV Resistance: In Central Texas, the sun’s powerful UV rays will fade and damage your car’s paint over time. A ceramic coating works much like a PF100 sunscreen for your vehicle, protecting it from oxidation and color fading.


Chemical Resistance: There are a lot of chemicals on the highway that you don’t see. From road asphalt and tar to toxic brake dust and exhaust, your clear coat takes a beating. Because it forms a chemical bond, a professional-grade ceramic coating will prevent these substances from harming your car’s appearance.


Enhanced Gloss and Depth: What people like best about a ceramic coating is how it increases the depth and shine of your car’s paint. Your vehicle will have a showroom-quality finish that lasts for years.


Cost-Effective Solution: While it may cost more than wax, the initial investment saves you money in the long run. For instance, a 9-year coating runs about $2,000, but if you divide that over 9 years, the annual cost is only $223, which is less than one wax job.


Preserves Resale Value: We report our ceramic coating services to CARFAX, and this will help increase the resale value of your vehicle. It shows you care enough about your vehicle to maintain its showroom look.

A local installer vs. a dealer-installed coating

By choosing a local company, you unlock several advantages that are simply not possible at a dealer.


First, most dealers use a semi-ceramic coating. These are actually ceramic sealants and require you to return to the dealer for additional applications every 6-12 months. This is because ceramic sealants do not bond chemically with the clear coat. A professional-grade ceramic coating lasts for 3-19 years.


Personalized Service: Local businesses grow through customer satisfaction and therefore provide individualized service. They take the time to learn how you use your vehicle and how you are accustomed to taking care of it. For these reasons, they recommend the best ceramic coating to meet your specific needs.

Easy Accessibility: You can conveniently visit their shop, discuss your expectations with pros, and see the application process firsthand.

Quick Turnaround: Local businesses usually have more scheduling options, for a quick turnaround and shorter waiting periods.


Established Reputation: A local shop relies on word-of-mouth referrals and positive reviews from its customers. A lot of 5-star reviews means you can trust the reputation of a locally owned shop.


As a car owner, you owe it to your vehicle to have the best protection possible. With its fantastic protection properties and its high gloss, it’s a worthy investment. By choosing a shop near you, you not only enjoy the advantages of the coating, but you also support your local economy and benefit from personalized, professional service.
