We're the Ceramic Coating Experts!

Ceramic coatings become a sacrificial layer by permanently bonding to the clear coat and act as the first line of defense against harsh elements and unwanted contaminants. Ceramic coatings prevent oxidation, acid etching, corrosion, and is extremely hydrophobic – repelling water and dirt while keeping your vehicle looking new – longer. Certified coating specialists at The Wash Buggy Auto Spa start by removing contaminants from your vehicle’s paint and then methodically apply layers of ceramic coating, creating a permanent barrier against unwanted contaminant, acids, chemicals and UV damage. If desired, we polish or paint correct the vehicle prior to applying a ceramic coating for an additional fee.

Industry-grade ceramic coating is a chemical polymer solution that is applied to the exterior of a vehicle to protect it from external paint damage. Typically applied by hand, it blends with the paint of your car and creates an additional hydrophobic layer of protection. Due to this chemical bonding and creation of a new layer, the car’s factory paint job remains untouched. While many car enthusiasts and even detailers believe it to be an alternative to clear bra (paint protection film), ceramic coating, in reality, is an alternative to waxing. The idea is to prevent dirt, grime, and acid etching from appearing on the paint and ruining the clear coat. Ceramic coating, also sometimes called Nano-ceramic coating, is a semi-permanent solution to your worries depending upon the coating and type of polymer used. Due to its chemically intrinsic properties, it does not break down in normal atmospheric conditions like rain or summer. We are here to help you protect your investments and keep them looking brand new, for years.

Common Myths About Ceramic Coatings

Yes, coatings are long-lasting and durable, but that doesn’t mean you can do whatever you want with your vehicle and think the coating will protect it.

It has its limitations and it’s important to understand the limitations of what the ceramic coating can handle. Too many times we see customers overthink the protection aspect of the coating and are then disappointed when they see swirls or etchings in the paintwork.

The coating will not make your paint scratch-proof. When we say the coating will resist light swirls and scratches, we genuinely mean very light swirls and scratches that might be induced when properly washing or drying the vehicle.

If you drag a dry and dirty wash mitt across the paint, you will scratch the paint. If you drag your hand or leg across the paint, you will scratch it.

The coating will not protect your paint from rock chips. The only real option that can protect your paint from rock chips will be paint protection film (PPF).

No matter how many layers you apply of any protection, whether it’s wax or ceramic coating, it cannot stop the impact of a rock hitting your vehicle.

The coating requires maintenance to prolong the durability. Just like many other things in life, if you don’t care for the coating, it will degrade overtime and not last it’s intended lifespan.

You have to properly wash, dry, and boost the coating for maximum durability. A coating that was meant to last for 5 years can start to break down at year 3 if not cared for properly.
