Your Car Protection Is Serious Business

When it comes to choosing the right ceramic coating for your car, your product and who installs it matters. Too often, we see the following mistakes being made by inexperienced detailers:

Warning icon

The coat was applied to paint that was already damaged.

database icon


The ceramic coating was cheap, leading to poor results.

Setting icon

The car prep was rushed without proper decontamination and cleaning.

Timer icon

Aftercare was skipped, leading to coats that get damaged faster.

At Auto Complex, we’ll help you avoid these issues and protect your car the way it should be protected.

What is Ceramic Coating?

A ceramic coating is a liquid applied to your clearcoat that cures into a hard, slick layer measured in microns. It bonds to your car’s paint and protects it for a long time. 

What are the benefits of ceramic coating?

Washing gets much easier

Washing gets much easier

Dirt has less to grip. Most of it comes off with a rinse.

Contamination

Contamination struggles to bond

Tree sap, bird mess and industrial fallout sit on the coating instead of sticking to your clearcoat.

The gloss holds

Frequently Asked Questions

car

A ceramic coating is a liquid applied to your car's clearcoat that cures into a hard, slick layer bonded to the paint. It makes the surface far easier to wash and stops contamination from bonding into the clearcoat and etching it. Ceramic coating also helps the paint hold its gloss rather than going flat over the years, and it resists UV fading.

Usually up to 10 years. The coatings we fit carry a 10-year warranty, covering the coating staying bonded, holding its gloss and continuing to repel water. We do recommend that you maintain your car's coating regularly to maximise the life of your ceramic coating.

It depends entirely on the car and how you use it. For a car that commutes on sealed roads, lives under cover and gets washed regularly, a coating is good value because it keeps the car clean and glossy. For a car that goes off-road, tows, or spends its life on gravel, we don't recommend ceramic coating because it doesn't protect against stone chips. Consider paint protection film instead.

We don't recommend washing it in the first week, but you'll find it considerably easier to wash your car afterwards. Most dirt rinses off rather than needing to be worked at, because the surface is slick enough that it has little to grip.

They do different jobs. A ceramic coating is chemical and protects the finish, making the car easier to wash and better at resisting contamination. Paint protection film is physical and protects the paint itself, absorbing stone chips and light scratches that would otherwise mark the clearcoat. Plenty of car owners get both: film across the front where the stones land, coating everywhere else.
