Premium Ceramic Coating in Melbourne & Surrounding Areas
Long-lasting protection, deep gloss, & head-turning shine—brought right to your doorstep.
What Is A Ceramic Coating?
A ceramic coating (or Si02) is a liquid polymer applied to your vehicle’s surfaces that chemically bonds with the paint, creating a durable, hydrophobic layer of protection. Unlike wax or sealants, ceramic coatings last for years—not weeks—guarding your vehicle from UV rays, water spots, road grime, and environmental fallout.
Why Choose Ceramic Coating?
Your vehicle’s clear coat is constantly under attack from the sun, bugs, bird droppings, brake dust, and other contaminants. Left untreated, these elements wear down your paint, dull your finish, and diminish your vehicle’s value. A professionally installed ceramic coating (unlike a standard wax) doesn’t just enhance the look—it shields your car with a hard, glossy barrier that repels water, reduces maintenance washing time, and maintains that “just-detailed” look far longer.

FAQs
Frequently asked questions about Ceramic Coating
What makes ceramic coating better than wax or sealants?
Ceramic coatings bond to your vehicle’s paint, creating a long-lasting, durable shield that resists UV rays, oxidation, water spots, and chemical damage. Unlike wax or sealants that break down in weeks or months, ceramic coatings last for years with proper maintenance—keeping your car cleaner, shinier, and protected longer.
Is ceramic coating worth it for a daily driver?
Absolutely! Daily drivers face constant exposure to sun, road grime, rain, and bird droppings. A ceramic coating adds long-term protection, makes washing easier, and preserves your vehicle’s appearance and resale value. It's a smart investment for both convenience and peace of mind.
Does ceramic coating require special maintenance?
Ceramic coatings are low maintenance, but not maintenance-free. We recommend regular hand washing with pH-neutral soap and avoiding automatic car washes (touchless washes are fine). We can also provide maintenance washes or ceramic-safe detailing to keep your coating performing at its best.
Will ceramic coating make my car scratch-proof?
While ceramic coatings do add a layer of hardness to your paint, they are not scratch-proof. They do help resist light swirls and micro-marring from washing and everyday contact, however. For deeper protection, paint protection film (PPF) can be combined with ceramic coatings.
