Need a top-up of your ceramic coating? We’ll preserve your car’s exterior at Auto Complex.
Let us help you maintain your investment.
While most ceramic coatings last for around 10 years, they need maintenance to keep their shine and performance. Our ceramic coating maintenance program is designed for vehicle owners who want to ensure the longevity of their coating.
Get peace of mind, knowing that your coating is performing as expected.
Here's when you should maintain your coating:
Your car was coated a while ago and hasn't been maintained since.
The water has stopped beading on your paint.
Your car is exposed to sun, sap, and bird mess.
Your car is consistently parked outside or under trees.
You’re doing high kilometres or driving on unsealed roads.
You want to maximise the warranty of your ceramic coating.
Our ceramic coating aftercare program includes a decontamination wash to remove built-up contamination, followed by a top-up of the coating where required.
This depends on how heavily your vehicle is used. If your car is mostly parked in a garage or is under cover, we recommend maintaining the ceramic coating around once a year. But if it’s parked outside and is constantly on the road, you should maintain the coating every three to six months.
Our team will be able to advise on a ceramic coating maintenance timeline that’s right for you.
Maintaining your ceramic coat shouldn’t cost an arm and a leg. Our pricing is fair and transparent, with high-quality workmanship you can trust.

Yes. A ceramic coating isn't permanent, and it isn't maintenance-free, despite how it's sometimes sold. Coatings are exposed to things like contamination buildup, acidic fallout from bird droppings and bug matter. Maintenance involves a decontamination wash to clear what's accumulated, followed by a top-up of the coating itself.
It depends on how the car is used. A car that's garaged or kept under cover, driven normally and washed reasonably often generally needs maintenance about once a year. A car that lives outside, covers high kilometres, spends time on unsealed roads or sits in the sun all day needs it every three to six months.
Washing helps, and you should keep doing it. But washing removes what's sitting loosely on the surface, not what's bonded into it, and it doesn't restore coating that's already eroded. When you maintain your ceramic coating, you maximise its lifespan and get peace of mind that it's working as it should.
