Why We Need Your Car Overnight
A ceramic coating is mostly hand work. Decontaminating, claying and polishing a car properly takes as long as it takes, and the coating needs time to cure before the vehicle goes back outside. On a larger vehicle it can take two people working on your car two days to do the work properly.
Nate and his team work on one car at a time, so nothing is rushed to make room for the next job. That is why we ask for your vehicle overnight rather than promising it back the same afternoon.
While your car is with us it is parked inside our secured indoor storage facility, not left outside in the lot. It stays there after the work is finished too, so you can wait for a clear day to collect it and enjoy the shine.
Does Your Paint Need Correction First?
Ceramic coatings lock in the condition of your paint. If your vehicle has swirl marks, scratches, or oxidation, we recommend visiting our Paint Correction page before booking.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. How long does a ceramic coating last?
1–5 years depending on the package and maintenance.
2. What’s included before applying the coating?
Wash, iron removal, clay bar, machine polishing, and panel wipe.
3. Do ceramic coatings prevent scratches?
They resist light marring but are not scratch-proof.
4. Can I use automatic car washes after coating?
Hand washing is strongly recommended.
5. How long does installation take?
Plan on one to two nights for a 5-Year coating, depending on the size and condition of your vehicle, and two nights for the 5-Year Deluxe. Most of that time is hand work: decontamination, clay, polishing and coating, followed by cure time before the car goes back outside. Your car is kept inside our secured indoor storage facility the whole time, including after the work is done, so you can wait for a clear day to collect it.
6. Do you offer maintenance washes?
Yes – we offer free maintenance washes every 3 months after your vehicle is coated with us.
7. Can you coat wheels, glass, or trim?
Yes — available as add-ons.
8. Is a ceramic coating better than waxing?
Yes — coatings last years, not weeks.
9. Do you offer warranties?
We do offer warranties for our coatings so long as proper maintenance is completed during the warranty period.
10. Is your facility insured?
Yes — all vehicles are protected while in our care.
