Ceramic Coating
in Northville, MI
Ceramic coating for Northville, 10 to 15 minutes from our Plymouth shop. Deep gloss, real chemical resistance and a surface that sheds water and grime.
A finish that looks freshly detailed.
A black car under the lights of downtown Northville shows everything: swirls, water spots, the haze left by an automatic wash. A ceramic coating is how you get rid of that look and keep it gone. After a decontamination wash, clay and a light paint correction where it is needed, the coating is applied by hand and cured indoors, leaving a finish that stays glossy and slick instead of fading back within weeks like wax. For garage-kept and weekend cars it means less polishing over the years, which means more clear coat left on the car. For daily drivers it means the car cleans up fast after a wet week.

Prep first, then the coating.
Ceramic coating is a liquid nano-ceramic that bonds to your clear coat and cures into a hard, slick, glass-like layer. Water and grime bead up and sheet off, washing takes a fraction of the effort, and the paint keeps a deep gloss while being shielded from UV fade, bird droppings, tree sap and road salt. We start with a decontamination wash and clay bar, do a light paint correction where the paint needs it, then apply the coating by hand, panel by panel, and let it cure indoors. It is protection measured in years, not the weeks you get from wax.
Ceramic Coating FAQ.
How long does a ceramic coating last?
A professionally applied coating is measured in years, not the weeks or months you get from wax or a spray sealant. How long depends on how the car is washed and stored, and we will tell you what to expect for yours.
Do I still have to wash the car?
Yes, but it gets a lot easier. Dirt has a hard time sticking to a coated surface, so most of it rinses off and the rest comes away with a gentle hand wash. You can skip waxing altogether.
Is it worth coating a brand new car?
New paint is the best time to do it. The finish is as clean as it will ever be, so the coating goes on with minimal correction and protects the car from its first winter instead of its third.
