Proper Paint Preparation Matters

Ceramic coating doesn’t hide scratches, swirl marks or oxidation. The better the paint looks before coating, the better the finished vehicle will look.

Every vehicle is inspected and prepared according to its condition.

1-Step Polish

Starting at $300+

Ideal for newer or well-maintained vehicles with light imperfections.

A 1-step polish can improve:

The goal is to restore gloss and improve the appearance of the paint before coating.

2-Step Paint Correction

Starting at $600

For vehicles with more noticeable paint defects.

A 2-step correction uses a cutting stage followed by a refining stage to address:

Not every scratch can safely be removed. Our goal is to improve the finish while preserving your vehicle's clear coat.

Your required paint preparation is determined after inspecting the vehicle.

We assess the paint, condition and existing protection.

Final Inspection

We inspect the finish to ensure proper coverage and appearance before the vehicle leaves.

What Does Ceramic Coating Do?

Ceramic coating creates a durable protective layer over properly prepared paint.

It helps provide:

Hydrophobic Protection

Water and contamination are less likely to stick to the surface.

Enhanced Gloss

Properly prepared paint gets a deeper, cleaner-looking finish.

UV Protection

Helps protect the paint from environmental exposure.

Chemical Resistance

Provides resistance against many common environmental contaminants.

Easier Maintenance

A properly maintained coated vehicle is easier to wash and keep clean.

Ceramic Coating Is Not Paint Protection Film.

Ceramic coating protects against environmental contamination and makes maintenance easier, but it is not designed to stop rock chips or physical impact damage.

For impact protection, consider PPF (paint protection film).

For maximum protection, PPF and ceramic coating can be combined.

Ceramic Coating Maintenance

Ceramic coating is low-maintenance — not maintenance-free.

We recommend professional maintenance approximately every 6–12 months, depending on how often and where the vehicle is driven.

A maintenance visit can include:

Safe hand wash
Coating-safe cleaning
Iron and chemical decontamination
Mineral deposit removal
Hydrophobic performance inspection
Coating condition inspection
Maintenance treatment

If water beading decreases, it doesn’t automatically mean your coating has failed. Surface contamination can reduce hydrophobic performance and may be removable through proper decontamination.

Ceramic Coating for Cars, Trucks & SUVs

Whether you’re protecting a new vehicle, daily driver, truck, SUV or performance vehicle, we can recommend the appropriate coating and preparation.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does ceramic coating cost in Kamloops?

Our ceramic coating packages start at $499+. Final pricing depends on vehicle size, paint condition and preparation required.

Does ceramic coating prevent scratches?

No. Ceramic coating is not scratch-proof and does not provide the impact protection of PPF.

Does my vehicle need paint correction?

Not necessarily. Newer or well-maintained vehicles may only require a 1-step polish or preparation. We inspect the paint and recommend the appropriate level of preparation.

How long does ceramic coating last?

We offer 5-year, 8-year and lifetime coating options. Longevity depends on the coating selected, vehicle use, environmental conditions and maintenance.

How often should ceramic coating be maintained?

We generally recommend a professional maintenance visit every 6–12 months, depending on how the vehicle is used.

Can you ceramic coat a new vehicle?

Yes. New vehicles still require proper inspection and preparation before coating.

Can ceramic coating be applied over PPF?

Yes. Ceramic coating can be applied over compatible PPF to add hydrophobic properties and make the film easier to maintain.
