THE MOST ADVANCED CERAMIC PROTECTION FOR YOUR CAR

After your paintwork has been corrected, your interior spotless and your vehicle is looking its best, there is no better way to protect it than with Ceramic Coatings.

Being an Accredited Labocosmetica Centre, we are able to install some of the finest ceramic coatings in the world, to best protect your pride and joy.

From exterior paintwork to plastic trim, and glass and interior surfaces ceramic coatings will thoroughly protect your vehicle from industrial and organic attack – keeping that detailed look for years not weeks.

WHAT IS A CERAMIC COATING?

In a nutshell, a ceramic coating is like having another layer on top of your paintwork, a semi-permanent layer than bonds to the exterior and interior surfaces of your car. It substantially increases gloss, doesn’t wash off, and protects better than any wax or sealant can.

It also lessens the attack of organic and industrial agents like bird droppings, limescale, fallout, tree sap, tar, UV, acid rain and pollution.

Ceramic coatings are self-cleaning,  making it harder for dirt and grime to stick to surfaces and in-turn speed up vehicle cleaning.

Whilst a ceramic coating can lessen the risk of scratching and swirls it is NOT bulletproof, and is not a substitute for paint protection film (PPF). Distinct Detail will always educate clients on the real benefits and dispel any myths to make sure you enjoy the full performance coatings can provide.

 

THE BENEFITS OF COATING TECHNOLOGY

Put simply, a ceramic coating forms a very durable protective layer on your vehicle, increasing gloss and making it really easy to clean:

  • SUPERIOR GLOSS
  • EASY MAINTENANCE
  • 5 YEAR DURABILITY*
  • ADVANCED CHEMICAL & UV RESISTANCE

*when correctly maintained

WHAT CAN'T A CERAMIC COATING DO?

Ceramic coatings are amazing, and they offer a lot of benefits over traditional protectants, but let’s cover what they CAN’T DO.

  • A coating CAN NOT protect from stone chips.
  • It cannot stop swirls and scratches from occuring
  • It doesn’t mean your car never needs to be washed
  • It can be damaged by automatic washes

Despite the above, Ceramic coatings are a true sacrificial barrier of protection for your vehicle – a layer that takes all of what nature and the road can throw at it until it is replaced.

The Process

All of our Paint Correction Detailing packages include our Foundation Layer ceramic primer to prepare and lay down a suitable base for ceramic coatings.

 

The process starts with the bodywork thoroughly degreased using a surface safe panel-wipe. This allows the primer maximum bonding to the surface.

 

The primer polish is then applied to add full clarity to the paintwork, and maximise gloss and reflectivity.

Depending on the level of protection required, we will either install one or two layers of your chosen ceramic coating protection to the exterior of the vehicle. All of our coating packages include:

Paintwork

Trim/Head and Tail lights

Wheel faces

Once the main coating layer has been applied we apply our top-coat chemical coating that bonds to the base layer and adds slickness and chemical resistance to the coating system.

 

Our coatings are then Infrared-Cured to set the coating system and aid in curing, making the vehicle ready for collection.
