Your car's paint is constantly bombarded with the elements such as UV rays, road salt, tar, dirt, bugs, and/or whatever else your car may encounter on the road. If left exposed to these elements, the paint will begin to fade, become scratched, contaminated, and even chipped. This allows for degradation of the paint's integrity/shine and gives rust the opportunity to develop under the surface, leading to costly repairs and an unsightly exterior. The best option to prevent all of this is a layer of protection. Most people's mind will go to a wax which we offer in our Pro Exterior package, which is tried and true, however it only lasts for around 6 months. Ceramic coating is the more modern and longer lasting solution as its polymers chemically bond to the clear coat, keeping your paint safe from wear and tear as you drive for up to 5 years and enhancing the gloss and shine, making your vehicle worthy for the showroom floor.

Our pre-application process ensures that we rid the paint of any contaminants that may be on/embedded in the paint. We wash, clay bar, and apply iron remover to the paint to get rid of any contaminants. We then perform a 1-step or 2-step polish* to make your vehicle look brand new. Finally the coating is applied which will preserve this brand new look for however long the coating lasts, in our case, 2-5 years.

*polishing/paint correction is required for the 2-5 Year coating, but optional for the 4-month spray coating.

We use Avalon King IX coating which is one of the best consumer grade coatings on the market. This is the coating that we use in our exterior package, Pro Overhaul. For this high quality coating, we require the polishing step for proper adherence which is where most of the price will come from. It is $625 for a sedan who's paint is in good shape, but may be $800 or beyond for some situations. For most cases, the full job it is priced out as follows:

• Sedan - $625-$800

• Mid SUV/truck - $750-$925

• Large SUV/truck - $900-$1100

This option gives a little more leeway to the average consumer as we do not require the polishing step, however it is still highly recommended to facilitate the best adherence to the paint and the best looking final product. We use Hybrid Solutions Turtle Wax Ceramic Spray Coating as it the highest quality budget spray coating on the market. This is the coating that is applied in the Plus Protect, Bulk detail, and Plus Exterior packages, all without the polishing step. Pricing is as follows:

Without polishing-

• Sedan - $60

• Mid SUV/Truck - $75

• Large SUV/Truck - $90

With Polishing/Paint Correction-

• Sedan - $450-$625

• Mid SUV/Truck - $560-$685

• Large SUV/Truck - $675-$850

If you are looking to get your vehicle polished, we generally recommend that you go for the 2-5 year coating as paint correction is the majority of the price with these services.

Polishing/paint correction is the best way to bring faded or scratched up paint back to its original beauty, and is a required step in our application of the 2-5 year ceramic coating option. The reason for it being required, is that it ensures a a perfectly clean and smooth surface, freshly exfoliated to promote proper adherence of the ceramic coating to the paint. The coating chemically bonds to the paint, and if there is any contamination, it will not bond properly. This will lead to the coating degrading and not lasting as long as it should.

We go over the entire car to bring out that showroom floor reflective shine, even more so enhanced by a coating of some kind. To simply polish the car, the pricings, as a general rule of thumb, are as follows:

• Sedan - $400-$575

• Mid SUV/Truck - $500-$675

• Full SUV/Truck - $600-$775
