Ceramic Coating — Cedar Rapids, Iowa
Long-term protection with serious gloss.
Ceramic coating creates a durable layer of protection over your vehicle’s paint, helping resist UV damage, road grime, water spots, bird droppings, and daily contamination. Every vehicle is inspected first so we can determine the preparation, correction, coating coverage, and protection plan it actually needs.
Custom Ceramic Coating
One service. A protection plan built for your vehicle.
You do not need to choose a package before we see the vehicle. We inspect the paint, discuss how the vehicle is used, and recommend the preparation and coating coverage that will provide the best result.

Why It Matters
Protection that makes maintenance easier and paint look better longer.
Deep Gloss
Ceramic coating enhances shine and adds a slick, reflective finish that makes paint look deeper and cleaner.
Easier Washing
Hydrophobic protection helps water, dirt, bugs, and grime release from the surface more easily during maintenance washes.
Long-Term Protection
A ceramic coating helps defend against UV rays, road salt, bird droppings, water spotting, and daily contamination.

Why is an inspection required?
