Gtechniq certified ceramic coating

A beautiful finish deserves lasting care.

Professional ceramic coating enhances gloss, repels water, and makes routine washing easier. We use Gtechniq coatings exclusively and prepare every surface properly first. A coating is not chip protection, so we'll talk you through pairing it with PPF.

Deep, lasting gloss

Unlike wax or sealants that fade quickly, a coating keeps color depth and reflectivity for years, so the car looks freshly detailed every day.

Hydrophobic finish

Water, road grime, and dust bead up and roll off. The car stays cleaner for longer in any weather.

Easier washing

Most buildup rinses off with minimal effort, so you spend less time scrubbing and the paint stays smooth and swirl-free.

UV and chemical resistance

Helps block the fading and oxidation from the California sun, and resists etching from bird droppings and bug splatter.

How it works

Quality starts with ceramic coating prep.

  1. 01

    Inspection

    We check the paint for swirl marks, oxidation, and contaminants, then explain honestly what a coating can and cannot do for your paint.

  2. 02

    Prep

    A thorough wash plus clay bar and iron remover decontamination, so the coating bonds to a perfectly clean surface.

  3. 03

    Correction

    If needed, multi-stage polishing removes swirls, micro-scratches, and haze for a smooth, even base.

  4. 04

    Coat and cure

    Gtechniq coating is applied by hand, leveled, and cured into a clear, glass-like layer. We finish with aftercare tips.

Ceramic coating FAQ

How long does ceramic coating last?+

With proper care, our Gtechniq coatings can last 5 years or more. Driving conditions, washing habits, and environmental exposure all play a part, and we share maintenance tips to help it last.

Does ceramic coating stop rock chips?+

No. A coating adds gloss, makes washing easier, and resists chemicals, but it is not chip protection. For that, paint protection film is the right choice, and the two work well together.

How is it different from wax or sealant?+

Wax and sealants sit on top of the paint and fade in weeks or months. A ceramic coating chemically bonds to the paint and keeps its gloss and water beading for years.

Why does prep matter so much?+

A coating locks in whatever is under it. Proper decontamination and correction make sure it locks in a clean, glossy finish.

Why Gtechniq?+

Gtechniq coatings are trusted worldwide for strength, longevity, and proven performance, and certified installers are trained on its application standards.
