Ceramic Coating
A single application bonds with your paint and holds for three years, not weeks. Your vehicle stays cleaner longer and washing becomes effortless.
Multi-year paint protection that chemically bonds with your vehicle's surface for lasting hydrophobic protection and UV resistance.
Ceramic coating is a liquid polymer that chemically bonds with your vehicle's factory paint, creating a permanent protective layer. Unlike wax that sits on top of paint and washes away within weeks, ceramic coating becomes part of your paint's surface.
This permanent bond creates several benefits: water beads and sheets off the surface (hydrophobic effect), dirt and grime have nothing to grip onto, UV rays are blocked from oxidizing your clear coat, and bird droppings or tree sap can be removed before they etch into paint.
The result is a vehicle that stays cleaner between washes and maintains its showroom appearance for years instead of months.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does ceramic coating last?
Our coating is rated for three years in Louisiana conditions. We apply a graphene ceramic coating, chosen because it holds up to the specific things that destroy coatings here: sustained UV, high humidity, spring pollen, love bugs, and bird droppings that etch unprotected clear coat within days. Three years is the rated life with normal maintenance washes, not a best case.
Does ceramic coating prevent scratches?
Ceramic coating adds hardness to your clear coat, which provides resistance against light scratches and swirl marks. However, it will not prevent damage from rocks, keys, or significant impacts. Think of it as adding armor, not making your paint invincible.
Can ceramic coating be applied over existing paint damage?
Ceramic coating locks in whatever condition your paint is currently in. We recommend paint correction before coating to remove existing swirl marks and scratches. Coating over damaged paint just preserves the damage.
How do I maintain a ceramic coated vehicle?
Maintenance is simple: hand wash every 2-4 weeks with pH-neutral soap (we provide a care kit), avoid automated car washes with brushes, and schedule an annual maintenance detail to inspect and boost the coating.

How much does ceramic coating cost for a truck or SUV in Baton Rouge?
Trucks and SUVs are $850 with our graphene ceramic coating, against $750 for a coupe and $800 for a sedan, as of October 2026. The difference is surface area and prep time. Every coating includes a single-step paint correction; if the paint needs heavier two-step correction, that is quoted after we see the paint and is the only reason two quotes for the same truck differ.
How long does a ceramic coating installation take?
One to three days including prep and cure. Decontamination and any paint correction happen on day one, the coating goes on the same day or the next, and the vehicle should sit dry for 24 to 48 hours before it sees rain or a wash. We do the work at your home or office and tell you exactly when the car can go back into normal use.
When can I wash the car after ceramic coating?
Wait seven days for the first wash so the coating fully cross-links, then hand wash every two to four weeks with a pH-neutral soap and the two-bucket method. Avoid tunnel washes and anything with wax additives; the coating replaces wax entirely.
Does ceramic coating come with a warranty?
Yes. Every installation includes written warranty documentation for the rated three-year life, along with a care kit and maintenance instructions. Keeping the warranty valid means following the wash guidance and booking an annual inspection, which we perform at your address.
Can you ceramic coat a car that already has paint protection film or a wrap?
Yes. Ceramic coating bonds to film and vinyl as well as paint, and it is the standard way to make film easier to clean and more resistant to bugs and pollen. We coat film, wrap and paint in the same visit; tell us what the car has when you book.
Is ceramic coating worth it on a 5-year-old car?
Usually yes, provided the paint is corrected first. A five-year-old daily driver in Baton Rouge has swirl marks and light oxidation that a coating would lock in, so we polish those out and then coat. The result is a car that looks newer than it did on delivery and stays that way for three years, at a total cost that is normally well below the resale value the finish protects.
