Nano Ceramic Coating Questions Answered | Complete Guide

How much is a Ceramic Coating?

Purchasing a ceramic coating comes down to a few variables. Your budget, the condition and size of your vehicle, how you drive the car, how you maintain the car, the type of coating you want (Consumer, Professional, Exclusive Multi-Layer). All of these factors are going to determine the cost.

My car is new, does it really need a Paint Correction or Polish?

Prepping the vehicle before applying ceramic coating is going to determine the quality of the results. The time and money spent on a coating job, is the labor to prepare the paint for ceramic coating.

Consumer coatings are an over the counter coating that you can purchase online. They last between 12-18 months and the coating company does not hold shops to a standard of quality or ethics when it comes to providing this service. Professional and Exclusive Multi-Layer coatings lasts much longer and requires the shop to be vetted, professionally trained, educated, maintain a good reputation and facility requirements such as a paint correction tools, clean room, insurance and infrared curing lamps.
